# How to Perform a Move-Out Through the 6Storage Admin Portal

## Step-by-step guide on processing a tenant move-out, including final billing and vacating the unit.

Moving out a tenant is a quick and easy process in the 6Storage admin portal. Follow the steps below to complete a move-out.

 

**Step 1: Locate the Tenant Profile**

To begin, navigate to the tenant’s profile:

- The quickest way is to use the **search bar** at the top of the screen.
- Alternatively, click on the **Tenants** tab in the toolbar at the top and select the tenant from the list.

**Step 2: Open the Rental Options Menu**

Once you're in the tenant’s profile:

- Find the **Rental Details** section in the bottom right.
- Click the **menu icon** (in the top corner of this section).
- From the dropdown, choose **Move Out**.

**Step 3: Enter Move-Out Details**

In the Move-Out window, you'll be prompted to fill in a few details:

- **Move-out date**
- **Move-out reason**
- Any applicable **additional charges**

![Screenshot 2026-05-22 090413](https://help.6storage.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-05-22%20090413.png?width=670&height=327&name=Screenshot%202026-05-22%20090413.png)

 

**Step 4: Add a Note (Optional)**

You can include a **Move-Out Note** for any extra details you'd like to record

![Screenshot 2026-05-22 090413-1](https://help.6storage.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-05-22%20090413-1.png?width=670&height=327&name=Screenshot%202026-05-22%20090413-1.png)

 

**Step 5: Handle Any Outstanding Balance or Overpayment**

If the tenant has an outstanding balance, you will be given two options:

- **Collect payment** from the tenant
- **Write off the balance** as **bad debt** if you do not plan to collect it

![Screenshot 2026-05-22 090413-2](https://help.6storage.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Screenshot%202026-05-22%20090413-2.png?width=670&height=327&name=Screenshot%202026-05-22%20090413-2.png)

- If a tenant has paid further ahead than the move out date you can **refund** the extra payment with the **Pro-rata Move-Out** option 
    - You can also choose if you would like to **Include Move-Out date** in the prorate calculation
- You can decide exactly how much you would like to send back to the tenant using the **Refunding Amount** box on the right side 
    - The **Refunding Amount** will be how much is sent back to the tenant
    - The maximum you can refund is listed in the **Balance** as an advance
- The **Refund Type** drop down will be used to select how you plan to give the money back to the tenant 
    - **Return to customer** will allow you to select a refund method such as Cash, Check, or Credit Card
    - **Dismiss as un-owed** will simply bring the refund to $0
    - **Give Tenant Credit** will add the overpayment to the tenant's profile to spend at your facility later
- You can also add a **reason for refund** if you would like

**Final Step: Complete the Move-Out**

Once all details are confirmed and any balance has been handled, click **Move Out Now** to finalize the process.
