HSB 184: Concerning self-storage facilities, including acceptances and defaults of rental agreements

What it does

This bill provides that a person who takes possession of a leased space of a self-storage facility and who receives a written rental agreement from an operator but fails to execute and deliver the written agreement within days is considered to have accepted the terms of the written rental agreement.5(5), to remove personal property from the leased space within days. During the 15-day period, the operator may deny or limit the occupant’s access to the leased space to the hours which the office is open at the self-service storage facility if such right is set forth in the rental agreement.
