I beleive that Idaho law requires 10 days publication notice before storage contents can be sold. Am I right? I plan to sue the storage company. I am in Idaho.

Read the contract you signed when you rented the unit. Odds are, there is language in there that addresses this situation. Trust me, you would not be the first to want to sue a storage company over this. I'd be very surprised if the rental contract did not outline their rights to auction off the contents of the unit once the bill has not been paid.

Not quite. It appears that Idaho requires that you be sent notice by certified mail to your last filed address no less than ten days before the deadline for repayment, and that the sale notice then be published in the paper during two consective weeks.
So they could write to you on, say, Wednesday the 1st, put the ad in the paper on Friday the 10th and Friday the 17th, and hold the auction on the 17th, and they'd be legal.

Your recourse was to pay your bill. Should have done it. Hope you had a bunch of expensive stuff. lawyers aren't cheap.
