The empty garage math nobody talks about
Ran the numbers on my own garage before starting StashSpot: an empty 2-car garage in most suburban markets is worth $80-150/month in rent if you'd just list it. Multiply that by every homeowner in a neighborhood who parks their car in the driveway instead of the garage, and you're looking at a stupid amount of dead space.
Self-storage facilities charge $120-250/month for a unit that's smaller than most garages, and you have to drive to it. Meanwhile there's a garage three houses down sitting empty.
That gap is the whole thesis behind StashSpot — a marketplace where homeowners list spare garages, driveways, basements, and units, and people needing storage book directly with a neighbor instead of a facility. No franchise fees, no drive across town, no long-term contracts.
If you've got space collecting dust or you're paying too much at a storage facility, come list or browse — it's free to join, we only take a cut when a booking actually happens.
