Chapters

So tenants who struggle to enter or exit your facility talk about it at the marina, the campground, the dealership. That place on Route 9, it's impossible to get in there with that— with a fifth wheel. That's the kind of reputation that follows a facility for years and keeps your waiting list shorter than it should be. How about vehicle damage risk? A facility with a tight turn at the entrance, poor sightlines, or inadequate staging space is a facility where accidents happen. A tenant who clips a post or gets cut off trying to back out onto a busy road has a claim and a story, and it's not a good one for you anyway.
