## What is RateSweep?

RateSweep does the self-storage market research for you. It reads the rates and move-in specials that every facility near you publishes on its own website, and lays them side by side — no phone calls, no afternoon of browser tabs. Not a directory: real prices, read fresh, every time.

FOR STORAGE OPERATORS — KNOW WHERE YOU STAND, EVERY WEEK
Type your website and RateSweep finds your nearest competitors, reads their rates and yours, and shows how you compare at every unit size.

One report is a snapshot. The real value is the trend. Put your market on a weekly or monthly plan and RateSweep sweeps it for you on the day and time you choose — every report adds a new point to your trend line, so you see who raised rates, who dropped them, who started or ended a special, and where your price sits against the market over time.
- Rates — every size from 5x5 to 10x20, your price against the market
- Offers — who has a special, and who just changed theirs
- Trends — how your market moves, sweep after sweep
- Up to 10 markets on one plan — every location you run, one email when they're all done

FOR RENTERS — THE BEST DEAL, WORKED OUT FOR YOU
Enter a ZIP code or tap Search nearby. RateSweep reads every nearby facility's website and shows what each one actually charges for the size you need — then works out the real average monthly rent once a move-in special is counted, so a "first month free" is compared fairly against a lower everyday rate.
- Best deal — the true average rent over 3 or 6 months, specials included
- Climate controlled, drive-up, inside or upper floor — compare by type
- Market — every facility, how far away, and a link to the page read

YOUR FIRST REPORT IS FREE
Try it on your own market today. When you're ready, a plan keeps it coming — automatically, every week or month.

Prices and specials change often. Always confirm them with the facility before you rent or change your own rates.
