    The only reason I'm leaving 5 stars is because of Mr. David the one with the long beard.. lol I'm so sorry I didn't catch your last name good sir, because you have been a great help from the very beginning. You were very patient walking me around to see the different units, and not once did I feel rushed into anything, even in the heat.. You answered every question I've had with professionalism, well mannered guy knew everything he needed to know about his company, the man could have sold me a car. you can tell he cares about his job just off the customer service skills.. you should definitely be doing something much bigger in this company or one that can see your skills, there needed in bigger places... If I could give you 5 more stars Mr. David I really would. It's been a pleasure meeting you, Please keep elevating yourself your gift is needed in bigger places... ... Read more

    I’ve rented from istorage for 3 years while being a caregiver for my mother. After she passed in April I went to retrieve all of my worldly possessions, only to find everything destroyed by water damage and mold. After my discovery, they told me the roof had been replaced last February, but did not bother to tell me. The area manager couldn’t have cared less and only offered me one month rent. I’ve been working with a regional manager for 2 months and still haven’t gotten any resolution regarding this. The insurance they sold me doesn’t cover water damage or mold. There was so much damage, that the walls are caving in. I feel so overwhelmed by this company’s lack of response to offer solutions for dealing with this. So basically I’ve paid them over 5,000 over 3 years to destroy everything I own. I don’t even know where to go from here. This is beyond devastating. Oh, they did inquire whether or not I have homeowners insurance that should cover it. I should not have to claim this on my own insurance (thus driving the rates up) over their gross negligence! ...
