Here at StaxUP Storage, we know our success is due to our wonderful team. The care they give our renters is unparalleled and we want to highlight their milestones along the way. Below is an interview with team member Pete Hoff, who is celebrating his 5-year anniversary with StaxUP Storage.

You can meet Pete at Desert Self Storage in Desert Hot Springs, California.

Colby: How did you start working in self storage?

Pete: When my wife and I dropped off a U-Haul truck here at Desert Self Storage. My wife told Barb and Rick if they needed anyone for part time work to call Pete. I was retired and living here in DHS. I got a call six months later and here I am.

Colby: Is it what you expected?

Pete: Didn’t know what to expect and boy what a ride it’s been.

Colby: What advice would you give someone who is just beginning a career in self storage?

Pete: Make sure you fill out all the paperwork correctly, especially the addresses and phone numbers at the time of the rental and you should be just fine.

Colby: What are your hobbies when you aren’t at your facility?

Pete: Living the American Dream with my BFF!

Colby: What advice would you give someone moving to the area?

Pete: Be ready for the wind and the heat!

“Pete’s a tough as nails kind of guy. He’s always willing to jump in and cover the property and do whatever it takes to make things run smooth. It has been a pleasure to work with Our Self Storage Manager of the year 2017 for sure!”

Chad Hunt, StaxUP Storage District Manager

Colby: What’s your favorite thing to do in the city?

Pete: Finding the best breakfast spot in the Low Desert.

Colby: What’s your favorite local restaurant in the area?

Pete: To everyone who has been part of my storage journey!

DESERT SELF STORAGE CUSTOMER APPRECIATION DAY

Summertime is officially here and the weather is heating up across the country. This especially applies to the StaxUP Storage Desert Hot Springs, California facility. Temperatures are expected to be high next week, but don’t let that stop you from coming by for the customer appreciation day being held on June 9th from 11AM to 3PM.

We spoke with Facility Manager Peter Hoff to get caught up on the details of this event.

“We’re going to be cooking hotdogs, chips, snacks and we’re also having a free raffle with the grand prize being one free month of rent,” Peter said. “It’s definitely worth coming by just to enter into that.”

While it may be hot enough outside to cook the hotdogs on the pavement, you can beat the heat with Peter and his team inside the facility where the food will be served and the raffle entry can be made.

“We’ll be taking plenty of photos,” said Peter. “Hopefully we’ll have a lot of people smiling and having a good time!”

Remember we are here to serve the self storage and RV parking needs of the Desert Hot Springs, CA community. Come on down and see us when you need us!
