Scott County Mini Storage has taken a stand against theft from this facility by partnering with the Shakopee Police Department and becoming certified through the Crime Free Mini Storage Program. Scott County Mini Storage is the only Certified Crime Free Mini Storage Facility in Minnesota, which shows the commitment we have made to our tenants.

Our certification as a Crime Free Mini Storage does not guarantee there will never be any theft of crime activity in our facility, however, we have taken the necessary steps to avoid and prevent crime from occurring.

What are some of the steps we have taken?
We have installed a 24 Hour State-Of-The-Art Surveillance System.
Our tenants sign a “Lease Addendum For Crime Free / Drug Free Mini Storage”, which authorizes us to have the police do a background check if we feel it is necessary.
We check ID's to match the lease as needed.

Where did the Crime Free Mini Storage program begin?
The Crime Free Mini Storage Program was developed in 1992, and has spread across the United States. Crime Free Programs relating to Multi-Housing, Hotel / Motel and Mobile Housing facilities are also fully functioning in the City of Shakopee. The Crime Free Programs are designed to be Law Enforcement driven. The Crime Free Programs are recognized across the United States and internationally as a crime-fighting tool. This police sponsored program is designed to be very easy, yet extremely effective, at reducing criminal activity in storage facilities.
