San Antonio Self Storage Managers Share Their Morning Routines

At Lockaway Storage, we know morning routines are the key to setting up a successful day. Our property managers each have their own way to start the day that includes walking the grounds, attending to renter needs and a host of other responsibilities. Below are two of our favorite San Antonio self storage managers on how they get their day started.

Lockaway Storage - Loop 410

Lockaway Storage – Loop 410 features gated entry, drive up units and wide lanes.

“The morning routine is that I usually just come in, turn the alarm off, check the messages, check the emails, do a walk around the property, make sure nobody’s broken in through my gate and that’s pretty much it with the walk through and then come back, return the calls I need to return, check the gate system to make sure everybody got out on time and that’s pretty much the basic of it. Unless there’s a customer outside or something changes or I’ve got something scheduled in the morning, that’s pretty much the how the first 30 minutes of the day goes.”

Lockaway Storage - Shaenfield

Lockaway Storage – Shaenfield features very wide lanes, drive-up access and RV parking.

“I actually start my morning off with what we call our Performance Training Worksheet, which is very similar to a checklist that you might see with any number of self storage companies, but it also includes key statistics and components and I make sure I review those performance stats before I start. That way if there’s an area, I feel needs to be adjustment in terms of our daily work then I can help the team members focus specifically on that area.”
