Storage Post Self Storage has added pack-and-ship services at its Jersey City, N.J., facility to meet customer demand for features that help reduce the time they spend running errands, company officials said. Customers and community members can use the service to send packages from the facilitys office.

"We know our customers are busy, and we want to make things as simple as possible for them when they visit our stores, said Pete Gioiello, vice president of operations. Because of that, we work hard to add amenities that deliver real, meaningful improvements to our storage facilities, and that benefit the community and our customers."

As an example, the company also recently added mobile bill-pay services for its New Jersey and New York customers to complement its current online-payment system.

The Jersey City location at 203 Broadway also provides onsite parking, drive-up storage units and customer access seven days per week. In addition, the company offers free WiFi at all of its locations, as well as truck and driver services and 24-hour kiosks.

Headquartered in Atlanta, Storage Post has self-storage facilities along the East Coast and throughout the South, and is actively pursuing acquisitions.

California self-storage operator San Diego Self Storage (SDSS) was a sponsor of the 5th annual San Diego Police Officers Association (SDPOA) Golf Tournament on June 21 at the Riverwalk Golf Club in Mission Valley, Calif. The event benefited the SDPOA Widows and Orphans Fund, which provides financial support to family members in the case of an officers untimely death or to the department member if his spouse or child dies. The association holds fundraisers throughout the year to support the fund.

The four-player golf scramble included prizes for closest to the pin, longest drive, straightest drive, putting and hole-in-one. The $110-per-person registration included the green fees, golf cart and dinner.

"It was an honor and privilege to participate in the golf tournament in which all proceeds from the event will be designated to support the needs of our local police officers and their family members, said J. Terry Aston, SDSS managing member. Kraig Haviland of SDSS and I were fortunate to be partnered in our golf foursome with two San Diego police officers who were superior golfers. Although we did not win a first-place position, the interaction with the San Diego police officers on our team resulted in a rewarding experience.

Founded in 1972, SSDS has a network of 18 self-storage facilities in San Diego County and additional facilities in Los Angeles and Orange counties. The company is locally owned and operated.
