An entrepreneur in Bozeman, Montana, wanted to generate steady income by opening a self-storage facility and ordered this pre-engineered metal mini storage building from Mini Storage Outlet to house the business in January 2025.
Featuring 63 storage units in a variety of sizes, the building can easily accommodate traditional home goods or business assets as well as RVs and other oversize items, making it appealing to tenants with many different storage needs. An attractive exterior helps draw the eye from the road, with Gray exterior paint, a combination of Gray and Charcoal trim, and Wasabi-colored mini storage doors adding to the metal building’s curb appeal.
Inside, rugged 29-gauge steel partitions with a Galvalume finish create separate rental spaces. A 2.5” WMP-VRR-faced roof vapor barrier helps prevent condensation and humidity, creating an additional layer of protection for renter goods. Gutters and downspouts further prevent water damage by moving rain and snow away from the mini storage building’s walls and foundation, and it also has a heavy snow load to enhance durability given the significant annual snowfall the Bozeman area sees.
Whether they’re looking to house campers, seasonal items, outdoor gear or any number of other possessions, residents in and around Bozeman will find that this mini storage building offers the space, security and moisture protection needed to protect their belongings year-round.
