You can see every option on our San Antonio storage units page. The History of Schertz Schertz has an interesting history, which can be traced back to the mid-1840s. The founding family, including parents Joseph and Anna Schertz, with six of their children, came to Texas from Alsace Lorraine, France. The Schertz family met Prince Carl of Solms-Braunfels on the ship, and he promised a half-acre town lot and ten acre parcel of farmland to any family who pledged to the colony he was setting up in Texas. The Schertz family agreed and pledged to be part of his colony. They arrived at the area that is now New Braunfels on March 25, 1845. The Schertz settlement got its start in January 1849, when members of the family purchased 600 acres in Guadalupe County for $600. In 1866, Sebastian Schertz, one of the six immigrant children, bought an additional 307 acres there. Locals called the small town Cut-Off, and settlers there farmed corn, wheat, and oats, and later, cotton. On April 6, 1899, Cut-Off had its name changed to Schertz, and it has only grown since. Schertz Is Growing Fast We're not kidding when we say Schertz has grown quickly. Situated between San Antonio and New Braunfels, Schertz has had some serious jumps in population. It was home to 18,700 people in 2000, and that jumped to 26,500 in 2006. By 2020, Schertz had 42,000 residents, and in 2022, 44,100 people live here. Two major interstate freeways pass through Schertz, I-35 and I-10, connecting it to local metropolitan areas and beyond. With the population growing steadily, the need for self storage here continues to grow, and that's why it made sense for us to be here. Why People in Schertz Rent Self Storage You may have heard that self storage is nearly recession proof. There's a good reason for this. During booming times, people have more disposable income and often purchase extra things, then put the things they don't need in self storage. In lean times, people often need to move into smaller homes. Even after decluttering, they'll still have more than will fit comfortably at home, so an affordable storage unit can really help. We recommend decluttering. We want people to use self storage for things they need, but don't need right now. Storage is great for items you plan to pass on to your kids soon, for important sentimental items, for that off-season wardrobe, for sports equipment you use part of the year but don't have enough room for at home, for business overstock, and a lot more. It can be discouraging if you come back to your unit only to realize it's half-filled with stuff you haven't thought about in years. Reserve a Storage Unit in Schertz, TX We predict that Schertz will continue to grow, and that the need for self storage here will increase. When you need a self storage solution, see our available units and rent online at our Schertz location, or call (830) 590-1711.
