Storage Wars brought a mix of characters into the spotlight, but when the show ended, many of the cast members faced uncertain futures. Here’s what happened to some of your favorite stars after the cameras stopped rolling.

Barry Weiss, affectionately known as “The Collector,” left the show to pursue spin-offs, which didn’t quite take off. In 2019, he had a serious motorcycle accident but has since bounced back as a brand ambassador for a casino. Dan and Laura Dotson, the iconic auctioneering couple, kept working despite personal challenges, including their son being injured in a shooting.

Dave Hester, often seen as the show’s antagonist, faced legal battles after being fired. Emily Wares shifted her focus to personal ventures, while Rene Nezhoda and Casey Lloyd had to recover from a robbery at their thrift store. Daryl Sheets embraced semi-retirement, partly due to health issues, while Justin Bryant took a step back to focus on family life and a growing YouTube channel.

Tragically, cast member Mo Poff passed away in 2021, while Jenny Grumbles turned her attention to her furniture business and maintained her journey of sobriety. Brandi Passante has managed through personal struggles, and Tom Beers, the mastermind behind Storage Wars, continues to thrive in television production.

Other notable cast members include Mary Padian, who pursued treasure hunting, and Brandon Sheets, who transitioned into real estate. Kenny Crossley launched a successful clothing line, and Ivy Calvin adapted his thrift store business to the online market. Jarrod Schulz, after serving time in prison, has since worked to turn his life around.

Fans of the show can now see how these once-familiar faces are navigating life off-screen, each with their own unique stories.
