Storitz Inc. this week launched a new website aimed at consumers looking to find and rent self-storage online. Storitz.com uses custom-built Web-based technology to provide a comparison shopping experience for storage consumers and an Internet marketing channel for self-storage operators.

Consumers using the website can also pay and move in 24 hours per day, which short-circuits the typical process of holding or reserving a unit, then having to call or e-mail back and forth with one or more storage operators. Offering consumers the opportunity to finalize their move-in online offers convenience for the consumer and storage operators alike, said CEO Adrian Comstock. Consumers will no longer have to wait for office and call-center hours of the storage property operators to nail down the details of renting a unit and prepare for the move because Storitz provides all of those details online.

Self-storage operators can show off their assets through detail pages that include photo galleries, property-feature icons and bulleted lists about the facilitys security, convenience and amenities.
