Your property website / the roster behind it

One screen. The real lot.

A real website for your storage property, with the live map, customer history, waitlist, and payment review already behind it.

$60 a month: your website, the hosting under it, and the software in one bill, plus a setup fee quoted once for the property. No per-unit toll and no marketplace commission.

The owner’s daily question

The lot runs fine. It also runs out of one person’s head.

A spreadsheet and a good memory will hold a storage property together for years. The cracks show on an ordinary Tuesday: somebody pulls in wanting a space and you cannot say for certain which ones are free, a check arrives and lands nowhere near the unit it was for, or a customer asks what you told them last October.

Walk the property in BayRoster and you are looking at the same three things you already walk it for.

Stop 01 / See

One glance replaces the spreadsheet search

Outdoor RV rows, numbered buildings, covered bays, and boat slips sit on one drawing of your actual property. Every occupied space colors itself from the dates and the payments behind it, and filters narrow the map to the question you have without changing what the colors mean.

Stop 02 / Move

Drag a renter to an open space

Inside an area the move happens as you drop it. Crossing into another area opens a short transfer that confirms the date and the rate first. The software refuses an occupied destination rather than quietly letting two renters land in one place.

Stop 03 / Remember

History survives the move-out

Closing an occupancy is a dated event, not a delete. Notes, contact details, and payment history stay attached to the person, so a renter who left in April and comes back in October reactivates onto the record that already knows them.

Operating software, not a marketplace listing

Your lot is not somebody else’s inventory.

Rent by the month or the season and you are running a records business with gravel under it: rigs, boats, tenants, and money that stay attached to each other for years at a time. A listing platform wants a cut of that relationship. A spreadsheet will hold the names and the amounts, but it will not draw the property or do month-end date math without somebody remembering the formula.

BayRoster starts from the questions you already ask out loud:

  • Which spaces are open right now?
  • Who is paid up, due soon, or overdue?
  • What did this customer pay, and when?
  • Who called about a space last week?

One property / two sides

The side your customers see, and the side you work in.

Both halves are set up together by one person, so there is no stack of services to assemble and no argument about who to call. The public website is part of the build; BayRoster runs behind it on the same hosting, and the connection between them only ever runs one way.

Public website

Clear before clever

  • Mobile-friendly pages for your spaces, rates, rules, location, and contact
  • Loads fast, with no plugins to keep updated or break
  • Written and tagged so search engines can tell what you store and where you are
  • A contact form that files straight into the inquiry queue and can never reserve a space

Private roster

The property at a glance

  • A drawing of your actual lot, colored by payment status
  • Drag a renter to an open space; an occupied one is refused
  • Customer, asset, location, and history records with a named activity log
  • A ranked inquiry queue that converts a caller into a customer in one step
  • Flat files on ordinary hosting, with CSV exports and timestamped backups

Verified money, human judgment

The software will not guess with money.

Online billing ships turned off, and plenty of properties never turn it on. When you do, Stripe verifies the charge on the server before anything in your records moves, and every payment lands in one of three places.

Real demo captureFictional customers Real BayRoster demo showing the inquiries queue and a payment held for review
  1. Clean match

    A whole-month payment matching exactly one customer, at that customer’s rate, extends the paid-until date and updates the map.

  2. Anything unclear

    Partial amounts, unfamiliar contact details, or more than one possible customer wait in the review queue for a person to decide.

  3. Checks still welcome

    Run the map and the records with online billing switched off entirely. Nothing here forces a payment workflow onto the property.

Built for odd-shaped properties

One roster for the buildings and the yard.

Most storage properties are not one tidy thing. BayRoster draws all of it on the same screen instead of asking you to keep three systems in your head.

Outdoor / 01

RV and boat storage

Rows on gravel, open ground, covered bays, and private shops, each with its own rate and its own record.

Buildings / 02

Numbered self-storage

Buildings and unit grids arranged the way you actually walk them, not the way a generic template wants to list them.

Water / 03

Boat slips and fixed bays

Fixed positions with their own rates and seasons, on the same map as everything else on the property.

From your spreadsheet to your own system

Demo first. Then a real setup.

No trial timer, and no blank map handed back with a manual.

01

Try the live demo

Real software, fictional customers, published password anytown-demo. It resets itself, so nothing you click can break anything.

02

Describe the property

How many spaces, indoor or outdoor, what people store there, and how you bill today.

03

Ben builds the setup

The website, the property drawing, your vocabulary, your imports, and the connection between them arrive configured.

04

You keep control

Your records stay in plain files you can copy, export, and read yourself. No license server, nothing that phones home.

Open demo / no appointment

Look at it before you talk to Ben.

The demo runs on a made-up property called Anytown Storage & Marina and resets itself, so drag a rig to an open space, open a customer, and review a payment. Two minutes is usually enough to know whether this is how you want to run the lot.
