Storage Unit Rental Agreement Software for Self Storage Owners
SignSend lets a storage facility send its rental agreement, lien notice acknowledgment and insurance waiver for electronic signature and get them back signed before the tenant gets a gate code. Upload the agreement your attorney approved, add the tenant, and they sign from their phone. One flat rate covers a 20 unit lot or a 400 unit building.

SignSend is storage unit rental agreement software for owners who want a signed, dated lease on file for every tenant before move in. Upload your agreement once, email the link to the tenant, and they sign on a phone, so nobody drives to the office just to hold a pen. The signed PDF and its audit trail land in your document list, and Pro covers up to 3 staff for $288 a year.
Yes, a storage rental agreement can be signed electronically. Under the federal ESIGN Act and the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act a signature cannot be rejected only because it is digital, as long as the tenant meant to sign and you keep a record. The rent and fee schedule, the lien and auction terms, the insurance requirement and the list of prohibited items can all go in one PDF.
SignSend does not take payments or manage units. It carries your agreement to the tenant, records the signature, and stores the result.
Can a storage unit rental agreement be signed electronically?
Yes. Electronic signatures are valid for storage rental agreements under the ESIGN Act and UETA, as long as the tenant intends to sign, agrees to do it electronically, and you keep the signed record. The signed PDF and its audit trail show who signed, when, and from what address.
Lien, late fee and auction rules for self storage are set state by state, so the terms in your agreement matter more than the signature method. Have your attorney review the agreement you upload. SignSend delivers the signature and the record.
What should a storage unit rental agreement cover?
Most operators cover the unit number and size, the start date and rent, the due date and late fees, the deposit or admin fee, a list of prohibited items such as hazardous materials, the insurance requirement, access hours, the lien and sale process if rent goes unpaid, and the notice needed to move out.
Many also add an addendum for vehicle or boat storage. Sending the addendum as its own document keeps each signature and each audit trail separate.
Everything a storage operator needs to sign tenants
Built around how a small facility rents, renews and collects paperwork.
Sign before move in
Email the signing link when a tenant reserves a unit. They sign at home, and the office only hands over the gate code once the agreement is back.
Your own agreement, unchanged
Upload the PDF your attorney approved. Your wording on rent, late fees, lien rights, insurance and prohibited items stays exactly as written.
A dated record for every unit
Each signed agreement carries the signer, the time and the IP address, and you can download the finished PDF with its audit trail.
Separate documents for separate terms
Send the rental agreement, an insurance election and a vehicle storage addendum as separate documents so each is signed and filed on its own.
Works for walk ups too
Open the link on a counter tablet and let a walk in tenant sign on the spot, then email them their copy.
One flat price for any number of units
Pro covers up to 3 staff and Business up to 10, with unlimited documents and unlimited signers, so a busy month costs the same as a slow one.

SignSend vs paper agreements and storage management software
A focused signing tool, not another system to move your whole facility into.
| What you are comparing | SignSend | Paper and facility software |
|---|---|---|
| Starting price | One free document, then $49/mo flat Pro | Paper is cheap per sheet; facility software usually bills monthly by unit count |
| What it is | Document signing with an audit trail | Facility software adds unit maps, billing, gate access and auctions |
| Your own agreement wording | Yes, upload any PDF | Paper yes; facility software often supplies its own template |
| Finding a tenant's agreement later | Search your document list | A filing cabinet, or the software's tenant record |
| Signed before move in | Yes, from a link | No for paper; depends on the software |
| Per-document fees | None | Varies by product |
| Where facility software wins | It does not bill rent or control gates | If you want billing and gate access in one system, facility software does that and SignSend does not |

Storage Unit Rental Agreement Software questions, answered
Can a storage unit rental agreement be signed electronically?
Yes. A storage unit rental agreement signed on a phone is valid under the ESIGN Act and UETA when the signer intends to sign and you keep the record. The signed PDF carries the signer, time and IP address. Have your attorney approve the wording of the form you upload.
Can I use my own storage rental contract?
Yes. Upload your own PDF, up to 20MB. SignSend sends it as written and records the signature. Your wording on rent, late fees and lien rights is not changed or replaced.
Does the tenant need an account?
No. The tenant opens the link in a browser, reads the agreement and signs with a finger or mouse. There is nothing to install.
Does SignSend take rent payments or control gate access?
No. It handles signing and storage. Billing, unit management and gate systems stay with the tools you already use.
Can I send a rental agreement and an insurance form together?
Yes. Send them as separate documents so each one is signed and filed on its own with its own audit trail.
What does it cost?
Pro is $49 a month or $288 a year for up to 3 staff, with unlimited documents and signers. Business is $99 a month or $588 a year for up to 10 staff. The first document is free to try.
