Renting Out Storage on Acreages

By: Jodi Henke

If you have a building on your land that’s sitting empty, make some money by renting it out for storage. People are always looking for places to put things they don’t have the room for such as campers, boats, machinery, animals, and hay.

Ann Johanns is a farm management extension program specialist at Iowa State University. She says your local extension office can help you determine rental rates, or ask around to see what the going rates are in your area.
