What is a COOL-BINZ Franchise?

COOL-BINZ is positioned to become the trusted name in the $10 billion portable storage industry. The company has designed a first-to-market concept with its all-steel, fully insulated, climate-controlled storage bin solutions. The unique portable bins allow homeowners and business owners full access to their possessions, while protecting those items from heat, water, humidity, mold, pests, and other environmental factors. Items stored in traditional, non-climate-controlled portable storage containers still sustain damage from exposure to the elements, which is why the bins offered by COOL-BINZ are such a differentiated product.

The COOL-BINZ franchise opportunity offers a simple-to-operate business model with low overhead costs, a full lineup of premium portable storage products, and excellent customer service that keeps customers coming back. These three factors combined mean more long-term profit potential for franchise owners.

A portable storage franchise with a purpose

COOL-BINZ was founded after first-hand experience with clear gaps and shortcomings in the portable storage industry. Brand President of COOL-BINZ, Ernie Padalino, and his wife Kathryn, COO of COOL-BINZ, were remodeling their home in Florida when a major hurricane developed in the Gulf and hit Florida, forcing the project to be put on hold. The Padalinos rented a traditional non-climate-controlled storage container to store their possessions for nearly a year. When the time came to retrieve their belongings, the Padalinos were devastated to find that most of their items were ruined because of exposure to heat, humidity, moisture, and other elements.

With their belongings damaged and unsalvageable, the Padalinos posed a simple question, “Why can’t this be better? There should be storage bins with climate control.” It was a moment of realization, according to Kathryn: “It was like a light bulb turned on, and I quickly went to work designing some concepts.” After years of research, development, and bin modifications, the Padalinos launched COOL-BINZ to bring a superior portable storage solution to their market with their climate-controlled storage bins.“Now is a great time to invest in COOL-BINZ, because the portable storage industry is in its infancy, and we’re set up to become a game-changer,” says Kathryn, “Portable storage is a growing $10 billion industry and we’re bringing something to market that the industry has never seen before.”

The Padalinos share a strong passion for helping others in need and providing innovative solutions to homeowners and business owners. With that in mind, they decided to partner with BELFOR Franchise Group, one of the world’s largest residential and commercial services franchisors. The Padalinos are ecstatic to offer aspiring entrepreneurs a rewarding franchise opportunity that will soon provide communities across the country access to their climate-controlled portable storage bins.
