Cool Box Portable Storage through an affiliate, AAW Belvedere, LLC (Garold Brown) exercised a lease purchase option to acquire 5901 S Belvedere Avenue in Tucson for[mepr-show rules=”58038″]$680,000 for the 103,106 sq. ft. of storage facility on 9.29 acres.

Cool Box, headquartered in Tucson, is a family owned company that builds and leases fully insulated portable storage containers. Unlike most of the portable storage industry, the containers are built in the U.S.A. The Company has a three prong approach to the portable storage industry: 5,000 portable storage containers for lease; 17 secure storage housing facilities dba A Family Storage in Tucson,  and onsite manufacturing plants throughout California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah and Texas. Cool Box Portable Storage is the largest privately owned and operated portable storage company on the West Coast.

Portablestorage is the new way to move and store. The most significant difference between portable storage and traditional self-storage is that you are no longer required to rent a truck to transfer your belongings back and forth from your location to a storage facility.
