How Renting Empty Land Generates $25K a Month

What if a profitable business was nothing more than fenced-off dirt?


On UpFlip, Chris, founder of Longyards, explains how he turned unused land into storage yards for contractors, trailers, and heavy equipment.


$25,000 Monthly Profit From One Location

Chris says his flagship Canadian location generates $40,000 in monthly revenue.


After approximately $6,000 in operating expenses and $9,000 in mortgage payments, he reports $25,000 in monthly profit.


Customers rent secure outdoor spaces, often on month-to-month agreements.


A Business That Runs in 5 Hours a Week?

Chris says a typical facility requires around five hours of his oversight weekly, with staff handling maintenance and customer service.


He also explains how entrepreneurs can partner with landowners instead of purchasing property outright.


Business Lesson

Solve an overlooked problem with a simple, repeatable business model.


Longyards shows how ordinary land can generate recurring income when businesses need secure storage.
