    Storage Depot has been a great place for us. The staff are always kind and helpful, which makes a big difference. Getting in and out is easy, and paying the bill couldn’t be simpler and the pricing is very reasonable. At the end of the day, sure, it’s just a box with a lock—but the way they run things makes it feel like more than that. ... Read more

    This place was previously terrible but with new ownership or whatever they have done to clean the place up and finally fix the gate it’s a good place to store your things. Rate did dramatically increase which has us looking for something else however. Revised. Another ridiculous price hike. 2 price hikes in last couple months. Great way to run off long time customer. ... Read more

    I rented the unit last Saturday, we don’t need it for 3 weeks but with only 3 left in the size we need, we took it on the spot, put the lock on while talking on the phone and getting the financial part taking care of on our way home. The young lady was very nice and helpful, when she told me about the unit, she said there are no promotions on these units. We were concluding when she ask me to leave a review and clicked on the feedback but instead I got to Copper’s rental page that showed the 3 month 1/2 price promotion, I asked about and she said she didn’t know about it and was very sorry but she couldn’t do anything about it now, she was truly sorry. I think she was, I let it go. But it seems the rental agency that Copper’s hired should be made aware of promotions going on. I contacted them today that we would be moving in next week and a different young lady helped me and everything went smooth. She said just get the declaration page to them and they will remove the insurance fee. I have read some reviews that indicated that was a problem in the past, I hope that Won’t be the case. Noticed the gate open also, no security, reviews about that didn’t sound good. I guess we will see. So far my interaction has been good with the exception of not getting the promotion and not having a choice over the insurance, which we haven’t had to do with other storage units. ... Read more

    UPDATE: 3 months after I reported the broken gate and moved out, I drove by there this morning and the gate is STILL broken! SMH What a total ripoff. How can you charge for “secure storage” when your gate is constantly broken? Don’t use this place. The gates have been broken for over 2 weeks and they continue to lie about having someone fix it. Then attempt to raise prices during this same time period and send emails signing you up for insurance coverage after you have provided them with sufficient proof of insurance from your home owners policy. CHOOSE ANOTHER STORAGE PLACE. THESE PEOPLE ARE SCAMMERS ... Read more
