My storage was broken into and my belongings were stolen!! I’m Sitting here waiting on the police to file a report. I don’t know how my large items were taken out!!! This place has an iron secured gate with code and a bobbed wire fence. They claim that the cameras wasn’t working!!!! I’ve had my things in this storage for a year and some months until my building is done! This is sad and ppl need to consider what they’re doing when stealing!!! You’re taking from others who’s working hard and trying to make an honest living to have the things they want in life!!! This world is a cold place!… update: They offered one month free of storage and my rent has went up on my $60. ... Read more

I’ve used Radiant Storage several times over the years! Setting up an account/moving in so super simple. They walk you through it over the phone. They usually have move in specials for a good rate. I feel at ease leaving my things because you have to have a code to access the units. Moving out is just as easy as moving in. They literally walk you through everything to make things as smooth as possible. ... Read more

I rented a 5x10 climate controlled unit on March 29th in Tuscaloosa for my son to store his college belonging’s over the summer (we are from NY). We received a move in confirmation email along with the assigned storage unit number. When we arrived at the storage facility to move in (on April 24th) we found a lock on our assigned unit. After making several phone calls to resolve the issue, we were finally told that the unit they assigned us was never moved out of and should not have been assigned. At this point they had no other climate controlled units available. We were left scrambling to find another company to store my son’s stuff. I was told multiple times that a manager would call me back, it’s been 5 days and I still haven’t received a phone call. They did however send me an email letting me know that they “successfully moved me out” of my assigned unit. This is pretty funny considering, I never moved in. This is just bad business and terrible customer service. We found a clean, climate controlled unit with good customer service at Northport Storage. ... Read more

I was very happy to find a storage facility that I could get set up with on a weekend. That being said, online setup was straightforward and easy. When I got there, they forgot to put a lock on the floor of my unit so I had to call customer service, but Liz was extremely helpful in getting me one quickly. ... Read more

Efficient Clean Easy and Regular Communication BEST PRICES and climate control All this without an on site attendant. This probably keeps the price down. Old storage $78 this one is $52 monthly for the same size. I would suggest visiting every 2/3 months just to eyeball your unit. My second month is coming up in a couple of weeks and I will visit. ...

My storage unit #334 was burglarized. All of my household and personal possessions including my daughter things was stolen by thieves. Imagine just closing on your home or literally two days before Christmas then go to the storage that you paid to keep your things safe and when you get there. First, you find that your locks had been replaced with one of there locks. Then proceeds to contact someone at customer service and one of the guy responses were “sometimes things like this happen.” I believe this was definitely an inside job. Someone who works there and has access after hours and privy to certain things. Apparently my own two personal locks were cut by the thieves after they were done stealing they place a lock from Radiant Storage on my unit from the drop box which I didn’t was so easily accessible. I notified local law enforcement which was Tuscaloosa Police Dept. and unfortunately was told that my storage wasn’t the first storage to be burglarized and for the foreseeable future until security measures are throughly enforced and things are changed my unit will certainly not be the last. In fact Radiant Storage is well-known for burglaries. How could that be when it’s a gated property and you have to have a code to enter. If you ever need to view camera footage for anything you’ll have to get a subpoena first. Investigation is still pending. Ultimately my investigation was closed simply because Radiant Storage doesn’t have verifiable camera footage, their CAMERA SYSTEM DO NOT WORK: ANYONE WHO WANTS TO STEAL AND BURGLARIZE STORAGE UNITS RADIANT STORAGE IS THE STORAGE! THERE CAMERA FOOTAGE DOESN’T WORK AND THERE ALARM SYSTEM IS BASICALLY A SCARE TACTIC. NO LAW ENFORCEMENT IS NOTIFIED. I WILL POST PICTURES LATER OF THE POOR LIGHTING, A CAMERA THAT IS ANGLED IN THE DIRECTION OF MY STORAGE UNIT AND THE WHATEVER “SECURITY GUARD” IS ON DUTY. I THOROUGHLY BELIEVE NOW THAT THIS WAS AN INSIDE JOB FROM ONE OF THE MANY DIFFERENT STRAY EMPLOYEES POSING AS A SECURITY GUARD AT RADIANT STORAGE IN TUSCALOOSA, AL. ... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions

There is a wide array of amenities available for the storage units that Radiant Storage - 1731 8th Avenue has to offer. These amenities include Climate-Controlled, Indoor, Drive-Up Access, Retail Available, Truck Rentals, Contactless Renting, Security Camera, Gate, Unstaffed Location, Parking 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 Radiant Storage - 1731 8th Avenue can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 25 to 400 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 Radiant Storage - 1731 8th Avenue come at a variety of prices, starting from $114 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $310 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!
