Cockroaches in unit stray cats pissing everywhere people working on their cars. Saw people doing drugs. Dog shit by my unit. But if I stay too long management is all over me threatening me with eviction. Worst storage place ever ... Read more

Never had any problems until the past week. I was in building 5 unit 579A 6-26-24 I got a call from the property manager, Jasmine. I was notified that my storage unit "was tampered with and it looks like they weren't able to get in". At the end of the call she stated that she needed a key on file to work on getting the door fixed. I came in and talked to Jasmine and again insisted to have the key on file. Before I gave my key, I went to my unit just to check it out. I asked if there were any other units that were tampered with and she said that mine was the only one. I thought that was quite strange I went to my unit and I saw my unit was tampered with (they tried to pry the door open). I opened my unit and I saw everything was rummaged through. My bike and my camera were stolen. I was quite furious from what I saw and what was taken so I just locked up and went back to the front desk. I told Jasmine that my unit was broken in. I asked if I could see any video footage but I wasn't covered or insured so there's nothing I or A1 Storage could really do about it and that I would need to file a police report. There was not much sympathy but didn't think too much about it. I asked about when they would fix the door and she said it will be sometime within the week. Before I gave my key, I went back to my unit and took other valuables that they missed. I also put everything back and organized what was went through, locked up and went back to the office to hand Jasmine my key. I told her that the thing that was off was how they were able to lock the door with the metal shaft bent and my locks still in place 6-30-24 I came back around 6pm with my mom to my storage unit check my unit again just to take what other things that I could gather. After opening it up, my unit was rummaged through again. The door, lock/shaft looked to be the same as it was. It just boggled my mind how they were able to put it back without unlocking it. At this time I didn't want to assume but I was thinking maybe it was an inside job since they had my key and that I was told mine was the only one that was broken into. I was curious so I walked down neighboring units and I noticed a handful of units had their metal shafts cut open. My mom was worried for me so that's when I decided to just move out. Since it was already late, I thought to just do that the next day 7-1-24 I went into the office around 9am. The front door was closed and I called the number that was left on the door since it said they are on the property. Jasmine picked up and said that she'll be at the front desk shortly. She came in and she asked if I was the one that just called and showed me the red tag (tampered units). Seems like she remembers me from the week prior. I told her that my unit was broken into again. Again, no sympathy whatsoever, but I didn't need it. I then told her that there were 4 to 6 units that were broken into with the shafts cut. She looked frantic about the whole situation but who wouldn't if you're the only one managing the place. I asked if I could move out today and not be charged for the next month's rent since it is the 1st day of the month. She said I'm more than welcome to if I don't feel safe here. I was going to rate this place 0 stars but I thought granting me this deserved at least 1 star I started gathering my things and saw Jasmine, herself, working on replacing the shafts on the broken-into units. Made me wonder if she also calls the customers saying it looked like your door was tampered with but weren't able to get in I came across like 3 other people the day I moved out. I mentioned to them to be careful with the recent break-ins. I was glad I told them about it because they should know. However, Jasmine confronted me and asked me if I'm telling customers about the break-ins to not to do that because "it makes us look bad". Well, maybe they should have done a better job at securing the place. Btw, they should have door locks at the entry door of each building. I highly recommend to consider looking elsewhere ...

Clean, friendly place with an on-site restroom and very generous access hours. Highly recommended, and I would still use them, however, the rate increases (as often as six months apart) resulted in my rent for a small unit more than doubling (to almost $140) over a little over three years. I reluctantly found a unit twice as large for half the price at a competitor. ... Read more
Matthew W. - 7 June 2024
This is the most dishonest storage company I have ever dealt with. We had to cancel our card due to fraud. A-1 charged us a bunch of unnecessary fees, which we paid and updated our card with them. The next month, they tried our old card again and added more fees again. ... Read more
Adam D. - 5 November 2023
I have had a storage unit at this location for several years. This place has been like a second home for my kids and I and I felt safe and secure with my belongings here. But honestly there was a time when things started to change and I wasn’t feeling as good about this facility as I had before. There started to be people hanging around all the time and every time I would come and need to use the restroom someone was always in there for long periods of time. I stopped coming around for awhile. But then recently I started to notice a big change. There was a new manager Juan. He came in and changed all of the bad things that were going on here and made this facility better than it has ever been. He is an awesome manager and made this place like a home again. Now people can feel safe and secure to have their belongings here and know that there is management here that truly cares and looks out for their customers. I would recommend this storage facility to everyone. ... Read more

The storage units offered by A-1 Self Storage - 16842 South Harbor Blvd can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 16 to 360 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 A-1 Self Storage - 16842 South Harbor Blvd come at a variety of prices, starting from $58 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $644 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!
