They are not answering their phone. They charged me for the month of March, even though I had already paid for it. Despite calling them 20 times, they did not pick up. I am frustrated with this situation. They should do their job correctly. I have already paid for this month, yet they added a new charge and will add a late fee. I have already paid for storage, and I feel like no one is on the line to help me. They even sent me a voice message saying that I didn't answer the phone, but I was already on the phone with their company. It's frustrating that they leave a voice mail when I'm waiting to talk to them. They put a false charge on me when I had already paid for this month, and then added a late fee of $20 as if I didn't pay on time. It's ridiculous. ... Read more

Overpriced for the size of units. Late fees are astronomical. Customer service is mediocre at best. Many empty units at Sycamore location since Minify took over, and for good reason. Not a company worth patronizing. Cannot wait to find another unit with another, more reasonable company who isn't trying to screw you over to meet their bottom line. There are plenty of cheaper units available from others. Stay away from this one!!! ... Read more

I had a unit here for over a year- was told move out and move ins were prorated, which later I find out isn’t true. I moved out a few days after the first and ended up not being prorated for the move out. I even spoke with a manager who was no help. These storage units are very overpriced compared to others in the area. Take a few moments to do more research- I wish I would have. I would like to add this in response to what the owner below has stated- I did ask for a manager and they gave me a manager on the phone, so you need to talk to your employees and see who is pretending to be the manager when you aren’t there. This phone call was on 10/7. The “manager” that I spoke with also informed me that they ONLY do pro rates for move ins, so again misinformation from what you are stating below. As far as rates go- the rates are higher for this storage until and anyone looking for good rates with an honest company go to Breezys. The only reason I didn’t was because they were full and they are full because they are a great business. There is a reason Minify has so many vacancies. Don’t be fooled. Also, the rental agreement gets sent to you AFTER you sign up, there’s no office to look at it ahead of time..... ... Read more

The units are affordable, clean and well kept and the person I spoke to on the phone was very polite and attentive. HOWEVER be aware this facility has no gate, no attendant and no security cameras. Anyone with a pair of bolt cutters can easily cut your lock and access your unit. If you're just storing furniture or things you're not worried about, this a great place and I would definitely recommend. However, if you are storing anything of value, or you just don't want people rummaging through your things, I'd recommend spending the extra on a more secure facility. Learn from my mistake. ...

Frequently Asked Questions

There is a wide array of amenities available for the storage units that Minify Self-Storage - 2131 East Lincoln Hwy has to offer. These amenities include 24 hour access, Drive-Up Access, Credit Cards Accepted 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 Minify Self-Storage - 2131 East Lincoln Hwy can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 50 to 300 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 Minify Self-Storage - 2131 East Lincoln Hwy come at a variety of prices, starting from $59 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $249 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!
