None of us would go a year between oil changes for our cars. I can't even go 6 months without descaling my Keurig. But how long has it been since you did a tune-up of your self storage facility? The word "Audit" has gotten a bad wrap over the years, but it is one of the most essential things you can do to ensure your facility runs smoothly and avoids major issues.

Today, we tackle why audits are important, the key things to look for if you do an audit yourself, and several red flags to look for that may trigger the need for an audit. You may think your operation is running smoothly, and perhaps it is, but waiting until things fall apart isn't the time to schedule a tune-up. Regular audits are the keys to preventing theft, legal trouble, maintenance problems, and much more. As good old Ben Franklin once said, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
