FAQ

Does Yarduno work for mixed asset types like boats, RVs, and trailers in the same lot?

Yes. Each space record can hold any asset type, so a lot storing a mix of vehicles, boats, and trailers stays on one system.

How is move-in handled?

A move-in record captures the customer, asset, assigned space, and agreement details digitally instead of on a paper form.

Can I bill by space size instead of a flat rate?

Yes. Rate plans can reflect the space or square footage assigned to each customer.

Is this the same as indoor self-storage software?

No. Yarduno is built for outdoor lots storing oversized assets by space, not indoor climate-controlled storage units.
