    Thanks for watching! I had no idea this would become so controversial. Certainly don’t like the ruffle any feathers, this is just business. We gave all the personal stuff we found back to the manager. I also made sure the manager was ok with us giving up our deposit to not have to clear out the unit. There was just too many big items in there for us to fit on the truck. She was super cool about it and said she would just call her junk removal guy and pay the $100 to him. Anyway, thanks again and I hope you enjoyed the video, even though you may have disagreed with some portions 😊

    I had no issues with you buying the storage problem was when you bought the storage and the site manager told you previous owner “wanted some of his items back” After you went through everything you still donated and trash a lot of things that you still could’ve gave back to him Yeah you gave back personal belonging but that’s required at every storage buy out. SSN, Birth certificate I’ve bought so many storages units but I never had an owner reach out for their stuff. If this was never mentioned in the video I honestly would’ve never cared.

    Years ago before storage wars was a thing. I had a storage unit and the facility auctioned off my unit for like $170. Come to find out they did their accounting wrong and i took them to court and was award $6000. It wasn’t about the money but the personal stuff I lost because of it. The death of my sons belonging, my daughters first dress, high school memories, my collectibles, etc. I lived out of state and stored my stuff while I was gone and I never knew what they were doing. When I see things like this, it’s just sad to know someone’s life is up for sale and no one knows the back story.

    I always think the same thing. At the same time, though, thrift stores are really similar to that. Someone probably hurt or is hurting to cause the donation. It's good to be mindful of these things. These wins are on the back of someone's loss. This is how the world works. You make a dollar. Someone loses one. Celebrate at the risk of your own karma.

    It’s awesome to see you find a unit like this but hearing the guy wanted to try and get his stuff back breaks my heart because that probably his entire living and job that he lost! I’ll never understand how someone can have thousands worth of stuff yet misses a payment! I would just sell a few things that weren’t as important to keep the more valuable stuff!

Thank you for giving the personal stuff back to the original people. I hope the storage unit manager will, indeed, give it all back to the original owner. That would be hard to replace, physically and emotionally.

    Hey Josh, I just wanted to share with you that forgoing your deposit to leave trash in the unit is not a best practice in this industry. Typically the deposit is paid in case people don’t take everything out of the unit they buy. It covers the cost of labor and disposal. It’s not offered as an option to just leave trash in the unit for them to clean up. Typically if you leave stuff in a unit you get banned from buying at future auctions. So don’t be surprised if you do get banned from that specific facility or the company running the auction. This type of behavior has negative consequences on those of us that buy units regularly. Storage units are a lot of work and when you commit to buy, you are buying the trash and the treasure. Please don’t forget that if you decide to do this again in the future. Congratulations on your finds.

    Mixed feeling about these types of hauls. But, ultimately, the owner should've had a friend/ relative clear out the very valuable stuff before defaulting on their payments. They knew the consequences of non payment. Still, I can't help but feel bad for them, and it would be hard to enjoy these scores knowing they want their old stuff back.

So on and so forth. But it's like driving by a car wreck and saying "well, it's the risk of driving on the roads and you shouldn't speed. Maybe I can get a killer deal on that salvaged car". Would have been nice to see an element of empathy I guess.
