Time share storage

What a great idea!! I think I read about this a few months back on this website and once I got to Aruba a lot of people were using this company. The owner is Lou and he is a retired American. We were very excited to use this storage concept. You purchase a large rubbermaid bin for $40 and pay $60 storage fee for the year. If you come twice then you pay and extra $20. It was great. I put my beach bag, sunscreen, beach shoes, cooler and some water noodles in the bin. It was great being able to leave items that we only use in Aruba there and not have to worry about bringing them back and forth.

He has limited space left but is trying to find more storage space. If anyone wants to contact him email is Timesharestorage@aol.com.

Randi - I also use Joanne & Lou Bruno. They are great. Never late (I am always late though) and very pleasant. They still have a condo not far from me in N.J.

We have been using Lou and Joanne since they began their business on the island and couldn't be more pleased with their service.

we too are very happy customers of lou and joanne's timeshare storage.

the container has always been delivered and picked up at the appointed time.

our stuff has stayed safe, dry, unsmelly and in the exact same condition as when we packed it.

this year they have implemented a policy for extra charge for additional weight in the container. the additional charge is if your container goes over 50 lbs.

at last weigh in report from lou, ours was 44 lbs.

we keep all of our aruba warm weather clothes in there (sox, underwear, bathing suits, snorkel gear, tees and tank shirts, shorts, crocs/sandals, peanut butter, coffee, filters, paper towels, power strip, casino cards, etc)


again, they are very reputable, kind and honest.
their business is top notch.

i highly recommend them.

Here's the details of Timeshare Storage

Items are stored in plastic 30 Gal Rubbermaid type containers. Cost for the container is $41.24 (one time cost).

Storage for the year is $67.02 US. These prices include the new Aruba BBO (Sales) Tax implemented on January 1, 2007.

There is a 50 lb weight limit. The overweight charge is $25 extra for 51 - 75 lbs. And an additional $25 extra for 76 - 100 lbs. But we would really appreciate keeping the weight below 50 lbs.

Everything has to be stored in the Container. No Bags, Boxes, Chairs, etc, can be left outside the container. If any of these items are not in a container when we pick them up, we will not be able to take them.

Containers for purchase may vary in size, material and price, as our reordering of depleted stock takes place. Approximate outside dimensions of the present containers in stock are 32"L x 19 1/2"W x 17" H.

Our fee includes one pick up and drop off to your Resort per year. Additional deliveries/pick ups during that year are $20 US dollars Round Trip.

We are a small company, and not large enough to accept credit cards. Because the bank charges a very high fee for cashing Foreign Checks, we can only accept cash.
