What to do if recently my storage shed was broken into and all my belongings were taken?
It was not a mere several item, but every item I had. When applying for the shed initially, the option for insurance was not offered to me or even mentioned for that matter. Do storage units have to offer you insurance? Im completely lost on where to begin.

Under the laws of all states in this country offsite storage centers do not have to advise a tenant about whether or not they wish to purchase insurance for their stored items. Ordinarily people placing items in storage either place insurance for their belongings on their own or not.
