Storage Asset Management Celebrates 15 Years of Growth, Innovation, and Excellence

Storage Asset Management (SAM), the nation’s largest privately owned self-storage management company, is proud to celebrate 15 years of partnership, innovation, and success in the self-storage industry. What began in 2010 as a team of 35 people managing 21 facilities across five states has grown into a powerhouse operation with nearly 600 facilities in 36 states and over 900 dedicated team members. 

Since its founding, SAM has remained focused on delivering exceptional third-party management solutions. That commitment has fueled a decade and a half of steady expansion and innovation. 

“This milestone is a celebration of how far we’ve come and the incredible people who have made it possible,” said Alyssa Quill, CEO of Storage Asset Management. “From day one, we’ve built our business on strong partnerships, shared values, and a drive to evolve with the industry. I’m proud of our team, and I’m excited for what’s ahead.” 

Over the last 15 years, SAM has achieved many milestones and introduced impactful initiatives to better serve self-storage owners and tenants, including: 

• 2016 – Launched the Storage Sense brand, now widely recognized across the industry. 

• 2019 – Introduced Choice Protection, offering in-house property protection plans for tenants. 

• 2023 – Established the Customer Care Center, an internal call center to enhance customer support. 

• 2024 – Formed a Virtual Operations Department, streamlining operational efficiency. 

• Named one of Central Penn Business Journal’s Best Places to Work every year from 2020 to 2024. 

• Grew to become the third-largest third-party self-storage management company in the U.S. 

To mark this 15-year milestone, SAM unveiled a refreshed logo, a symbol of the company’s evolution and its continued momentum. The new design honors the original logo while introducing a modern, upward-pointing arrow, reflecting the company’s forward-thinking spirit and its focus on future growth. 

As SAM reflects on the past decade and a half, its core values and focus on doing what is best for its clients while maintaining a people-first culture remain unchanged. 

Looking forward, SAM will continue to lead the way in third-party self-storage management by investing in technology, staying ahead of industry changes, and supporting the people — employees, owners, and tenants — who make this success possible.
