A note from our founder

β€œStorage was broken. So I fixed it.”

Dan Disipio, founder of Shared Storage

Dan Disipio

Founder & CEO

I started Shared Storage because I saw the same thing happening everywhere.

Renters were paying $300, $400 a month for a cold concrete unit across town, while literally next door, someone's garage sat half-empty. A basement with a door that never opened. A parking spot collecting dust.

It felt like such a simple mismatch. People with space they weren't using. People desperate for space they could actually afford. So I built something to connect them.

Neighbours helping neighbours. Better space, better prices, better for everyone.

The problem

Storage is
broken.

πŸ’°

Overpriced

Traditional storage charges $200-400/mo for a box in a cold warehouse.

πŸ“

Inconvenient

Always across town, never near where you actually live.

πŸ“‹

Lock-in contracts

12-month minimums, hidden fees, and cancellation headaches.

We fixed it.

The peer-to-peer storage marketplace connecting Canadians who have unused space with people who need storage nearby.

No long-term contracts. Just community-driven storage that is local, flexible, and on your terms.

The difference

Why Canadians are switching

Traditional storage is built for corporations. We built Shared Storage for everyone else.

50%less

Priced by people, not corporations

Real neighbours setting real prices. No corporate overhead, no corporate markups. Just fair rates from people who actually live in your community.

10min

15%fee

No hidden costs. No surprises.

Simple, transparent pricing. Renters pay a 15% platform fee plus a 3% admin fee on the base price. Hosts pay just 5%. No deposits, no contract lock-ins, no surprise charges.

Loved by renters and hosts

Real people saving money and earning income. Here's what they have to say.

"I was paying $280/month for a unit across town. Found a garage ten minutes from my place on Shared Storage for $140. It's cleaner, closer, and I can text the owner directly."

"My basement was just sitting there full of old furniture I cleared out. Listed it on a whim and now I'm earning $180/month passively. The whole setup took maybe five minutes."

"We needed somewhere to store our retail inventory during the off-season. Traditional storage wanted a 12-month contract. Shared Storage gave us month-to-month with no hassle."

"I travel for work half the year and my parking spot just sat empty. Now it pays my car payment. Seriously β€” the app handles everything, I don't even think about it."

"Moved between apartments and needed a place for a month. Found a storage closet two blocks away, booked it, and had my stuff there the same afternoon. Way better than hauling everything to some industrial park."

"I was skeptical at first, but the Stripe payments and the review system gave me confidence. My first renter was great, and now I've got a steady income from a space that was collecting dust."
