I built this to run my own lot.

I am Ben Huffman. I run Dirt River Design and a storage operation of my own. For a long time the operation lived in a spreadsheet: who was in which spot, who had paid, and who I needed to call. It worked until somebody pulled in wanting a space and the sheet could not tell me, with confidence, which ones were actually free.

So I built the map. Payment tracking followed because the colors are only useful when they are true. Customer history followed because renters leave, return, move, and remember what you told them last year.

BayRoster is still what I open to see the property. The decisions on this site—portable files, no hard deletes, human payment review, no per-unit toll—come from using the same thing I sell.
