DENVER, April 12, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Closetbox, a national full-service storage company currently serving 65 U.S. markets, announced today that it will bring its innovative valet storage model to the five boroughs of New York City. A more cost-effective option at approximately half the price of other full service storage companies in the area, Closetbox is offering free pick-up in NYC, making it easy for residents to free up space in their lives without lifting a finger or transporting anything.
"After launching in 65 other markets, we are thrilled to finally be offering New Yorkers the convenience of full service storage with the affordability of a traditional storage unit," said Closetbox Founder and CEO Marcus J. Mollmann. "We free our customers from the hassle of lifting, loading and hauling heavy storage items to and from a storage unit, and are more cost effective to boot."
For the first time, Closetbox makes the cost of full service storage comparable to the monthly rent of a self-storage unit. Their unique, innovative business model leverages technology to utilize excess capacity with existing, registered and licensed storage providers, enabling them to offer the lowest cost full service storage. All storage items are tracked, organized, and inventoried on a private online dashboard, complete with the option of adding photos, labels, and tags making return delivery simple.
The company has seen substantial growth since its launch in 2014. What began in Denver, Colorado, as a storage company offering free pickup and on-demand return delivery, has expanded to more than 65 U.S. markets, and increased both its number of employees as well as annual revenue by more than ten times since its inception. Closetbox recently closed $5.5 million in funding and has raised $12 million in funding to date and is quickly becoming a leader in the $32 billion self-storage industry.
