What customers are saying

4.8/5 - 130 Reviews

Read some helpful reviews of First Storage at 3000 Old Opelika Road, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

I was very blessed to have Miss Gwen guide me thru a difficult time in my life that led me to need climate-controlled storage. I felt she understood my needs, and I want her to understand how much it meant to me to have her on my side during the worst time I've gone thru. There are just some people that know what to say to take customer service to a level above all others. My Daughter will be attending Auburn soon, and we know we can book early to get a great location in the building to get in and out during the college student rush between June and August every year. Love that the property is owned by an auburn alum. War Eagle to all, and to all a good night. ... Read more

Gwen was courteous, knowledgeable, and patient as we needed to get a storage unit reserved for an emergency move. She set clear expectations of what we can expect when storing our items there, gave a thorough walk through, and even gave us a detailed action plan to follow in the event we ever encounter suspicious activity or a violent customer if we come after hours. We haven't had customer service like this in a long time! Give this woman a raise! ... Read more

My experience has been very pleasant, thus far. Ms. Gwendolyn did a great job explaining what to expect, as a Yemeni of the storage facility. She is very knowledgeable of the way everything works and has a plan for any obstacle that may occur. The facility is very well maintained and the temperature, inside the storage area, is perfect, which gives me the peace of mind that my items will be safe and protected from the weather changes. ...

These amenities include Climate-Controlled, Indoor, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Contactless Renting, Security Camera, Gate, Parking, 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 First Storage - 3000 Old Opelika Road can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 25 to 250 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 First Storage - 3000 Old Opelika Road come at a variety of prices, starting from $62 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $247 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!
