Opt-Out of Tenant Protection

You don't have to use an APB Storage Tenant Protection Plan. You can choose to use your own homeowner's or renter's insurance instead. Before opting out, check with your insurance company or agent to make sure your policy covers belongings stored away from your home. Auto insurance does not satisfy this requirement.

​

If you choose to use your own policy, you'll be responsible for keeping your insurance information current. Have your policy information ready, then use the button below to opt out of the Tenant Protection Plan.
