Congratulations on creating your Partner Location! There are a few factors that can help position your company to win more business.
Our team has helped Partner Locations get set up in most major US transportation hubs. We would love to help your team maximize your earning potential and provide a great Partner option for our Customers.
Here are some suggestions of simple ways to improve your profile and attract more renters.
Complete your profile
Adding a short description, adding quality photos, and setting reasonable rates make a profile stand out!
Set reasonable rates
Locations that set higher prices see far fewer (or no) Bookings through the marketplace. If you need guidance on how to price your location, reach out to our team!
Would you rather have a yard that fills up at $10 less per month, or keep rates higher and wait for someone willing to pay?

Turn On Instant Approval
When a customer requests space at a Partner Location, partners will receive an email notification to "Accept" or "Decline" the Booking. As a Partner, you have 30 minutes to accept a Booking before it automatically declines. This way, customers are not waiting a day or longer to hear back from facilities.
If you do not want to miss an opportunity to accept a customer and fit the criteria below, adding Instant Approval can attract more renters to your facility:
Your company always has 1+ space available
Your profile is complete and accurate
Customers have clear instructions how to access your facility (if you are NOT 24/7, please note this very clearly in the Description and Facility Instructions)
Add Daily Parking and Truck Parking
Your facility may currently only have Monthly parking and storage options for customer now. Adding a daily option not only puts your facility in front of more customers, but you also have the opportunity to earn more per space.
Facilities that are good fits for daily storage:
Simple 24/7 access
Customers have clear instructions how to access your facility (if you don't have a guard at the entrance, you should put gate code, combo lock, or the best number to call for access in the Facility Instructions)
Portable or permanent bathrooms are a plus for overnight tractor-trailer parking, but not necessary for daily trailer and container storage.
