HB 1154 Tennessee House · 114th Regular Session (2025-2026)

Personal Property - As enacted, specifies that if the occupant of a self-service storage facility does not sign a written rental agreement revision and continues to use the facility for not less than 30 days from the date of receipt of the agreement, then the occupant is considered to have accepted the rental agreement revision; makes other changes related to self-service storage facilities. - Amends TCA Title 66, Chapter 31.

HB 1154 amends Tennessee's self-service storage laws (TCA Title 66, Chapter 31) to clarify tenant and owner rights. It states that if a storage unit renter does not sign a revised rental agreement but continues using the facility for 30+ days after receiving it, they are considered to have accepted the changes. The bill also requires owners to provide tenants with at least 15 days' notice before termination, allowing time to remove belongings, and permits owners to dispose of unclaimed items after that period. This law directly affects storage facility tenants and owners by establishing clear procedures for agreement revisions and lease terminations.
