We are moving to northern Alabama from out of state. The storage center is the first business I've interacted with in Alabama and what an amazing first impression! Cindy and her staff are amazing! They have been incredibly helpful throughout our move and Cindy has earned a long time customer. Whenever I need storage I won't bother to look anywhere else. The prices are great, the facility is very clean, the building is secure with CCTV & access control, and the climate control is perfect. What more could you ask for? ... Read more

Cindy is absolutely amazing! I had a great experience at storage center. Cindy went above and beyond to help me find the right unit and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. She was friendly, professional, and very knowledgeable. The facility was clean, secure, and easy to access. Highly recommend working with Cindy if you need storage—she really cares about the customers! ... Read more

We were able to walk right in and get the storage room of our choice in little to know time. We were assisted by Cindy who was professional and showed us the units and assisted us with obtaining a lock and the proper documents. We were able to take advantage of the online special at the counter too. I would recommend Storage Center to anyone in the area who need affordable, reliable, climate controlled storage. ...

Hailee G. - 8 May 2025
It was great at first kevin helped out a lot and he was fast. My issue is that it says the office is open at 10am, and no one is here at that time. It’s very unprofessional and inconvenient for no one to be at the facility when we need help in regards to our storage. I called the customer service and all the lady had to say was someone was gone to be here shortly. 30 minutes in counting no one is here. ... Read more
Kayla J. - 6 March 2025
We had a great experience here. I was sick, so I had to do everything online for my Mom to drop some family heirlooms off. Kevin called me with some extra information I missed online that was extremely helpful. He was so friendly with me, my mom, and my husband later dropped by to pick up the key for the lock my mom purchased from the store (which was very reasonably priced). The facility is very nice and Kevin is amazing at customer service. We highly recommend. Thank you! ... Read more
Tanya O. - 8 February 2025
Their name is “The Storage Center”. It should be “Best Choice Storage Center”. Here’s why: I’m a businessman and I make decisions by creating a list of my requirements. i.e.: - Security: Controlled access, video surveillance, on site management, well lighted, clear public view in highly traveled area, easy and clear access for emergency response. - Customer Service: Response time, customer needs come first: From my first visit, to my periodic interactions with Kevin, I have always felt welcomed and appreciated. - Quality facility: My stored items need to remain safe from theft or damage. This facility is new and security is “state of the art”. It’s even climate controlled! I would feel comfortable with my wife or child accompanying me to access my new unit. With the cleanliness, climate control, location and friendly staff, this feels like an extension of my home. That was my goal. ... Read more
Thomas A. - 8 January 2025
I recently used this storage center, and I have to say, the experience exceeded my expectations. The customer service was absolutely top-tier from start to finish. Kevin, in particular, was an incredible help. He went above and beyond to assist me with everything I needed, offering clear guidance and making sure all my questions were answered. His professionalism and friendly demeanor made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend this storage center to anyone in need of reliable and exceptional service! ... Read more
Shalanda L. - 8 January 2025
We had truly the best customer service from Kevin this Saturday! He went over everything and was super friendly. This facility is brand new and designed with safety in mind. We are extremely happy with our unit! Best experience ever renting a storage unit! You won’t be disappointed with the service or the facility! ... Read more

These amenities include Climate-Controlled, Indoor, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Contactless Renting, Security Camera, Gate, Parking, Elevators, First Floor Access, Multi-Level Storage and Online Payment. Most of these amenities can prove to be very useful depending on what you need to store. For example, climate-controlled units can come in handy for keeping sensitive items, drive-up access can make your loading and unloading process easier, and extra security measures will ensure your items are kept safe at all times.

The storage units offered by Storage Center, The - 40 Shields Road can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 25 to 300 square feet. You can go for smaller units if you don't have a lot of items to store, while choosing a larger space is recommended in case you need to store a lot of furniture, bigger items or even vehicles.

The unit size that you should choose obviously depends on how much stuff you need to store. On the one hand, you should think of smaller units (5'x5' or 5'x10') as closets – they can be used to store chairs, lamps, moving boxes and sports equipment, along with smaller pieces of furniture, books and documents.

On the other hand, the 10'x10' and 10'x15' spaces are good for storing larger items of furniture, bicycles and a larger number of possessions. If you need even more space, then 10'x20' and 10'x30' units can easily accommodate the contents of an entire 3- or 4-bedroom house.

Storage units offered by Storage Center, The - 40 Shields Road come at a variety of prices, starting from $24 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $314 a month.

We know that when it comes to self storage, there is nothing more important than quickness and accessibility. Drive-up access is an extremely convenient amenity, as you can park your vehicle right next to your unit, making it significantly easier to load and unload the items you will use storage for. However, drive-up storage units tend to be outdoors, so you might consider indoor storage spaces with climate control if you're looking to keep temperature-sensitive items in peak condition.

Yes, you might, depending on what you need to put in storage. Climate-controlled spaces keep temperatures and humidity levels consistent all the time, which means they are perfect for storing sensitive items. Seeing that a whole host of things can be damaged by varying temperatures and excessive moisture, many people choose to rent climate-controlled units for personal items such as documents, photographs, paintings, collectibles, electronics, wooden furniture, antiques and even vehicles. If you're looking to store such items that are valuable to you, consider renting a climate-controlled unit!
