The Storage Group began in July of 1995 when business partners Jerry and Chad Lundberg purchased the already existing Spring Lake Storage facility.  At the time, the facility had 45 units at 90% occupancy.  Immediately, the two began construction of additional storage units.

In December of 2000, the purchase of Fruitport Storage was added to the group.  At the time, the facility had only 90 units with less than 50% occupancy.   In the spring and summer of 2001, 3 additional buildings with approximately 150 additional units were added, and by our one-year anniversary, we were approximately 80% full with the existing and new buildings.

Our growth led to offering our customers rental trucks. At the end of 2002, 4 rental trucks were added.

Between 2002 and 2003, five additional buildings were added to Fruitport Storage.

In the Fall of 2002, Fruitport Mobile Storage was started.  This division of The Storage Group offers customers over-sea shipping containers (cargo containers).

Feeling the need to expand even more, the purchase of Cloverville Storage occurred in August 2003.  At the time, the facility was at approximately 75% occupancy.

We moved our offices in September 2003 to its current location at 42 South 3rd Street.  The move brought The Storage Group to a familiar setting, the location previously occupied by Lundberg's Hardware.

In the Summer of 2004, we added another partner, Heather Fett.

Expansion continued through 2004 when 28 Climate Controlled units were added.  Also, mobile offices were added to the offering through Fruitport Mobile Storage.  The offices include lights, a drafting table, heat, and air.

Cooler units used at fair and campgrounds around Michigan were added in the Spring of 2005.

The Fall of 2005 brought a brand new location on Airline Road.
