After the Aug. 10 derecho caused significant damage to Cedar Rapids and elsewhere in Iowa, many residents needed to safely store antiques, computers, electronics, furniture, paintings and other valuables until repairs could be completed or new permanent housing could be arranged. In addition, as Iowa’s aging population is moving out of traditional single-family homes into condominiums or assisted-living complexes, downsizing is increasing demand for storage. “They don’t want to sell their stuff yet and they don’t want to give it to their children,” said James Schmitt, owner of That’s Storbiz, which opened in Cedar Rapids mid-2018. “They’re hanging onto it until they decide what they are going to do with it or they want to be able to access it.”
