I used Taylor Storage for 4 years and the price only went up $5 during that time. I had to move out today and the key to my lock broke off in the lock and they broke the lock with a drill and cutter and didn’t charge me for the work. Great service and price I highly recommend this place to anyone

I've had plenty of storage units throughout the years. But hadn't heard of Prime Storage until I searched for a close by storage. I'm so glad I selected Prime Storage. Prices are very competitive. The service both the corporate and on site manager delivered was the best I had at any storage I've ever rented. Great experience so far. The first day I needed to switch units. Without any issues it was completed in a matter of 2 minutes. That was impressive to me. Most places would have charged me a months rent to get it done. Regardless of availability. Thank You Prime Storage. Truly a 5 Star facility.
