Founding offer — the first ten yards

Green means paid. Red means overdue. That's the whole yard.

Storage Yard Manager is software for caravan, motorhome and boat storage yards. It's a map of your yard on the laptop, PC or tablet in the office — and on your phone when you're out on the plots: who's in each plot, who's paid, who's late, and whose insurance is about to run out.

£29 a month for your first 12 paid months, then £39 · first ten businesses

30 days free first, with no card. The trial doesn't count towards the 12 months.

The demo needs no signup, no email address and no card.

The yard map on a laptop: 102 plots in four zones, each tile named after its customer and coloured green for paid, outlined amber for due soon and red for overdue.
The yard map on an Android phone: 8 plots empty, 6 coming free, 14 overdue and 6 open jobs, a colour key, and the Front Yard's plots as coloured tiles.
What yards actually use

Four things, done properly.

The yard, colour-coded

Every plot at a glance — green paid, amber due, red overdue, white vacant. Click one to see who's in it.

Chasing, in a couple of clicks

One screen lists everyone past their due date, worst first. Send reminder opens a polite email already written, and notes on their record that you chased.

Insurance dates that warn you

Every vehicle's expiry date in one place, on the dashboard 30 days before it lapses, with reminders to the owner.

At the desk, and out in the yard

Made for the laptop, PC or tablet in the office, with nothing to install. Your phone gets the same yard for when you're out on the plots — add it to the home screen and it opens like an app.

What it costs

The founding offer, in full.

It's real, there are ten places, and it only works while it stays real — so there is no countdown and no invented scarcity.

Mario Szlapa, who built and runs Storage Yard Manager
Who's behind it

Built for a real storage yard.

Mario Szlapa

I built Storage Yard Manager for a family-run caravan storage business that was getting by on a limited custom system and a spreadsheet alongside it. It has run that yard ever since, and nearly everything in it started as a problem that yard actually hit.

I build it, I support it, and if you email, you get me — not a ticket queue.

The awkward questions

Asked, and answered straight.

I'm not technical. Is this going to be a nightmare?

It was built for a yard, not for IT people. If you can use WhatsApp you're overqualified. And founding yards get the setup done with me on the phone — you talk, I'll tell you where to tap.

What if you disappear?

There's an export-everything button — spreadsheets and a full backup — and it works even if your subscription lapses and the yard goes read-only. You'd download your data and carry on. No lock-in; that's deliberate, and you can test it on day one.

My spreadsheet works fine.

The spreadsheet isn't usually the problem — the chasing is. If yours writes the reminder emails and remembers who you've already asked, honestly, keep it.

Do my customers have to do anything?

No. Out of the box it's a tool for you and your staff; customers just get well-timed emails from your yard. There's an optional portal you can switch on later if you want them paying online — it's off unless you turn it on.

How long does the £29 price last?

The first ten businesses pay £29 a month for the first 12 monthly payments of their subscription. From the thirteenth payment it is £39 a month per yard. The free trial does not count towards those 12 paid months. It applies to one yard per business and doesn't restart if you cancel and rejoin. You can cancel before any renewal.

I store boats, trailers or motorhomes, not caravans.

It doesn't much care what's on the plot. Vehicles are recorded as caravans, motorhomes, boats, trailers or something else, and plots, customers, money and dates work the same way for all of them.

Have a look before you decide anything.

The demo yard asks nothing of you. If you like what you see, the trial is 30 days and needs no card.
