UnitOps

US-DE / 25 Del. C. § 4904(a)(2)-(3)

Self-storage software for Delaware operators.

Delaware's self-storage lien statute encoded day-by-day: first notice at D+0, sale eligibility at D+60, with publication, delivery, surplus, and fee guardrails pulled from 25 Del. C. § 4904.

Email notice requires the seeded paper-fallback evidence path before lien advance.

The full day-by-day timeline — every transition, delivery rule, and citation from first notice to auction — runs live in the product, and every case pins the version in force the day it opened.

What UnitOps does differently for Delaware operators

Built around the Delaware statute, not retrofitted onto generic PMS.

  • 01 The lien clock starts with Notice of Claim at D+0, holds 30 days before Notice of Sale at D+30 under 25 Del. C. § 4904(c), keeps the auction gate closed until D+60, with citations 25 Del. C. § 4904(a)(2)-(3) and 25 Del. C. §§ 4901–4905.
  • 02 Vehicle and titled-property handling stays separate at D+60, with tow evidence kept out of the ordinary goods sale path under 25 Del. C. §§ 4901–4905.
  • 03 Publication is required with a 30-day sale lead and publication in a newspaper for two consecutive weeks or online auction website listing for two consecutive weeks under 25 Del. C. §§ 4901–4905. Delivery evidence tracks Notice of Claim by in person, verified mail, email, and certified mail and Notice of Sale by newspaper publication and online auction website publication.
  • 04 Surplus is held for 5 years (1825 days); then routes to the occupant first. Run your own payment processor and your own QuickBooks — UnitOps never sits in the middle of either.

Lien evidence packet

Built for the day you get sued.

For Delaware cases, the packet presents the evidence trail beside the policy snapshot that was pinned when the case opened. It lists notices, delivery proof, ledger entries, photos, and state changes in chronological order. It presents records and citations only. The downloadable sample uses fictional seeded data with redacted names and a SAMPLE watermark.
