Playa Storage
If you've come to this page, you're interested in learning about a storage service for the Burning Man community. As a reminder, we're looking to form this not-profit-centric business in relation to Burning Man ideals, but for it to be self-sustaining, we do need to charge for it.
To help get this enterprise off the ground, please answer a few questions so that we can get in idea of what folks are really looking for in such a service. Thanks again!
