4.8/5 - 328 Reviews

Read some helpful reviews of Safeguard Self Storage at 6014 North California Avenue, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

Wanted to take a moment to write a review for this location based on the positive experience that I had throughout the whole process. Went in on a Tuesday to check out the facility and ask some quick questions. First and foremost all my questions were answered quickly and accurately. The staff even offered to show me some of the units, this was 30 minutes before closing time, so I was supper impressed. I then used all the info that was relayed to me to sign up online. I was able to get a free local through signing up on online. I went in and did some paper work with the manager on duty (who was amazing btw and mentioned they’ve only been in this location for about 2 months). The manager was great, they took their time to walk me through everything and made it a point to make sure that my lock codes and everything was in order even though she was also getting ready to take a meal break. I also had an additional question that could not be addressed in the moment, but very quickly the location manager got ahold of a district manager who assisted and resolved the matter. I was very surprised to get a call only 15 minutes after leaving the location informing me that that matter was resolved. Overall I had a great experience and was impressed by the level of customer serve and the overall positive disposition of all the staff members. I would like to note that the manager who helped me out was on duty on 1/20/26. Thank you guys again for everything and for making it a great experience for a first time self storage user! ...

Nice staff, we used a storage unit there for 2 months, the manager and everyone was always friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Mila was the one who helped us sign out. She is very sweet. Thank you so much, we’ll be sure to refer our family and friends if they ever need somewhere to store their belongings.?? ... Read more

I needed a unit to start staging some things for moving. The building is always so nice and neat. I've never had trouble parking, and no shortage of carts on hand to load my things onto, either! Rondo helped me get checked in, gave me the tour, and was just an all-around pleasure to deal with. Overall, an excellent experience! ... Read more
Will W. - 31 August 2025
I’ve used Safe storage for over 2 years. Always clean, great employees (Thanks Rondo for always helping). Came and went easily at varying hours and always felt safe being their alone as a single women. Parking onsite (in front or in back) was never an issue. Would definitely recommend. Better priced than comparable units. ... Read more
Kelly P. - 26 August 2025
I had to move out of my ex's apartment which was nerve wracking. Rono, one of the front desk attendants was very friendly and accommodating. He helped alleviate my stress and gave me piece of mind that my furniture was safe and secure. Couldn't have been easier! ... Read more
Matt M. - 2 August 2025
I recently moved my things into Safeguard Self Storage, and I’m really impressed with the experience so far. The facility is super clean, feels very safe, and parking is easy whether you go in through the front or the back. Rondo was the person who helped me, and he was not only kind and friendly, but also incredibly thorough. He explained everything so clearly that I’ve already been to my unit twice with zero issues—thanks to his guidance, using the access codes and unlocking the unit was a breeze. Highly recommend this location and especially Rondo for anyone looking for a smooth and stress-free storage experience! ... Read more
VALENTINA M. - 2 June 2025
I rented a 5x8 locker to store my college stuff for the summer. Rondo helped us get set up with the contract and showed us around the entire facility. He was very helpful and informative! I liked that the facility was very secure and was located close to my college. If you rent from this location, ask for Rondo! ... Read more

Marisol A. - 27 April 2025
The facility is clean, orderly, and all of the units are easily accessible. I’ve been renting units here for the last 3 years, and everything has been simple. Rondo (assistant manager) has helped me on a number of occasions. Today, I downsized my storage unit, and he made the entire process a breeze. It took a total of about 10 minutes to terminate the contract for the old unit and open a new one. He answered all of my questions, and I watched him interact with several other patrons while I was moving out/in. He’s professional, but personable, and he’s my “go-to” if I have any questions/concerns. Today, he saved me nearly half of my rent by disclosing options to downsize. ... Read more

Most of these amenities can prove to be very useful depending on what you need to store.

The storage units offered by Safeguard Self Storage - 6014 North California Avenue can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 20 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 Safeguard Self Storage - 6014 North California Avenue come at a variety of prices, starting from $29 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $562 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!
