    I originally had a small unit and needed extra space. They made it so easy to transfer my belongings to a bigger unit. I recently found an apartment with extra space so I will be moving out of the unit I have. Every time I have interacted with staff they have been wonderful. Always a great attitude and very helpful. It's always a pleasure to talk to them. I highly recommend this storage facility based on the cleanliness and customer service. ... Read more

    Staff was friendly and accommodating. Made the rental process easy. Provided a unit that meet our needs at a good price. Would recommend to anyone looking for a storage. The only thing that may not be so great for some people is that the interior units are not temp controlled. So right now (summer) it's very hot inside. Plan accordingly. Overall, nice experience. ...
