Summary

Existing law, the California Self-Service Storage Facility Act, specifies remedies and procedures for self-service storage facility owners when occupants are delinquent in paying rent or other charges. Under existing law, if rent or other charges due from an occupant remain unpaid for 14 consecutive days, an owner may terminate the right of the occupant to the use of the storage space at a self-service storage facility by sending a preliminary lien notice by certified mail to the occupant's address. After sending a notice, the owner may, within 14 days of the termination date specified in the preliminary lien notice, deny the occupant access to the space, enter the space, and remove property to safekeeping. Existing law specifies procedures for an owner to enforce the lien following receipt of a declaration in opposition to a lien sale. Existing law provides that an owner may sell the property subject to lien if the occupant cannot be contacted or served at the address provided in the declaration. This bill would allow an owner to have a vehicle, watercraft, or trailer, subject to lien, towed from the premises if rent and other charges have not been paid for 60 days and the required notice has been sent and would revise the time period within which that notice is to be sent. This bill would make technical changes to the declaration in opposition to lien sale.
