- Keeps requirements for ads to list the customer's name, storage unit number, and facility address.
Who it affects
- Owners of self-storage facilities
- Customers who rent storage spaces
Limits and unknowns
- The official text does not state when this law officially takes effect.
- This bill only changes advertising rules and does not change other parts of how lien sales are handled, such as the requirement to conduct sales in a commercially reasonable manner.
