Abstract

Embodiments are generally, and without limitation, related to devices, systems, and methods that allow one or more users to store objects, in a fixed storage in a remote storage enclosure, that the user can have shipped to themselves anywhere. More specifically, but without limitation, a user sends objects directly or indirectly from a merchandise provider, to a fixed storage provided by a storage concierge at a Unique Address assigned to the user by the storage concierge. The storage concierge tags each object with an unique code and creates an inventory of each object it receives for the user. The storage concierge processes each object and then stores the objects in the user's fixed storage associated with the Unique Address. When the user needs one or more objects, the user requests the objects to shipped to a desired location. The storage concierge takes the objects from the fixed storage and ships them accordingly. When the user is finished using the objects, the user requests that the objects be returned to the closet. The storage concierge ships the objects to the storage enclosure, processes the objects, and returns them to the fixed storage associated with the users Unique Address.
