2-Building Steel Mini Storage Complex in Sugar City, Idaho

Sunward Steel Buildings, Inc., supplied this pair of prefabricated metal buildings for a customer in Sugar City, Idaho, in June of 2020. 

Now undergoing use as a self-storage facility, the buildings offer unmatched structural integrity and help protect goods stored inside from extreme temperatures, fire, the elements and other hazards. Between them, they contain (70) rentable storage units and maintain high occupancy rates, producing a steady stream of revenue for the business owner. 

Mini Storage Industry Strength

The self-storage industry continues to grow across the nation, with consumers increasingly seeking out spaces to house RVs, boats, toys or their personal belongings when they need to move or downsize. Most self-storage facilities across the nation maintain occupancy rates that hover around 90%, meaning the majority of their units have renters most of the time. 

This particular self-storage center serves consumers from across eastern Idaho and the Rexburg, Idaho, micropolitan area. Located in Idaho’s Madison County, Sugar City sits about 6 miles from Rexburg and about 32 miles northeast of Idaho Falls.
