BGL Properties LLC, the owner and operator of Ranch House Storage in Pine Grove, Calif., has expanded its portfolio with the acquisition of Big Box Storage in Kingman, Ariz. This marks the company’s second self-storage facility, reinforcing its commitment to providing secure, convenient and technology-driven storage solutions.
Ranch House Storage, which opened in August 2023, has seen rapid success, reaching 70% occupancy in just 18 months—well ahead of industry expectations. This success fueled BGL Properties’ interest in expanding, leading to the strategic purchase of Big Box Storage in January 2025. In addition to traditional self-storage, the site offers uncovered storage for RVs and boats.
Why Kingman, AZ?
BGL Properties had been evaluating opportunities in Nevada, Arizona and other regions before identifying Kingman as the ideal fit. The newly acquired facility, located at 4415 N Bank St., in Kingman currently offers 20 storage units. It sits on over an acre of land with expansion potential for RV, boat and vehicle storage or up to 60-70 additional units based on market demand.
“That corner of Arizona is one of the fastest-growing areas in the country,” said Jeremy Edwards, owner of BGL Properties. “We saw a great opportunity to serve the local community while having room to grow and adapt to their storage needs.”
Hands-On Approach to Storage Development
The success of Ranch House Storage was built on meticulous research and hands-on construction. BGL Properties’ team, led by co-owners Edwards and Kevin Kraft, plus a group of family and friends, physically assembled every storage unit themselves, even driving their own forklift.
“We attended industry shows, toured over 20 facilities and joined the California Self Storage Association to ensure we built the best facility possible,” said Kevin Kraft. “By the end, we could put together a storage unit in just 30 minutes.”
Fully Automated, Customer-Friendly Storage
Both Ranch House Storage and Big Box Storage prioritize fully automated rentals, allowing customers to lease units online and access them immediately. Advanced technology, including smart locks, security cameras and automated gate systems, ensures a seamless and secure experience.
