Go Mini’s: Redefining Convenience in Portable Storage and Moving

Go Mini’s is a leading franchise in the portable storage and moving industry, founded in 2002. The company is headquartered in Westlake Village, California, and has grown rapidly to become one of the fastest-growing storage and moving companies in North America.

In 2012, Go Mini’s began franchising, which allowed the company to expand its services across the United States, Canada, and Mexico. Go Mini’s offers a range of services, including local moving and temporary portable storage solutions.

What sets Go Mini’s apart from the competition is its focus on providing high-quality, weather-resistant storage containers, including the industry-unique 20-foot container option. 

These containers are designed to protect customers’ belongings from the elements and provide a stress-free moving and storage experience. The franchise's commitment to customer service and innovation has earned it recognition as a top franchise by Franchise Business Review and a place on Entrepreneur Magazine's list of Top New Franchises in 2017.

Training 

Go Mini’s provides a comprehensive training program designed to ensure franchisees are fully equipped to run a successful portable storage and moving business.

1. Initial Training Program: This program includes both classroom instruction and hands-on experience. Franchisees learn the operational aspects of the business, such as managing the inventory of storage containers, handling logistics for moving services, and effectively using Go Mini’s proprietary software systems.
2. Ongoing Support: Beyond the initial training, Go Mini’s provides continuous support to franchisees. This includes access to updated training materials, regular consultations, and guidance on marketing strategies to help franchisees grow their businesses.

This helps franchisees stay competitive and up-to-date with the latest developments in the portable storage and moving industry.

‍Territory Protection

The Go Mini’s franchise does offer territory protection to its franchisees, ensuring that each franchisee operates within an exclusive geographic area. This protected territory is defined in the franchise agreement, and it prevents other Go Mini’s franchises from being established within the same region. 

This territorial protection is designed to give franchisees the confidence and security to invest in their market, knowing they will not face direct competition from other Go Mini’s locations within their designated area​ .
