    Great customer service. Units are pretty nice. Not the greatest at keeping dust out, but a decent value. Over 2 years, we never had any issues with the storage/site. The app, i would give 1 star. Bad experience eith bluetooth connection/gate access ... Read more

    I came in the office to speak to the lady Amanda. I had previously had encounters with her over the phone before when she was rude and had an attitude and that alone rubbed me the wrong way and I just chose to not to deal with her, just from the nasty attitude she gave me. And I don’t understand when this is a company owned business. Everyone there supposed to work as a team and she makes a comment that was nasty towards her coworker to me. Off that comment I got that she doesn’t like that particular person or she was trying to talk down on her. I asked her today, if I could talk to the owner or regional manager. She stated it takes 48 hours to respond or reach back out to me. I will be waiting patiently the 48 hours. ... Read more

    First after my husband passed I put the things I was sure the moving company would not take to Delaware from Kansas because I was over my amount so with me having a couple friends in Kansas still selling my items and me keeping my doctors there as well I would come there at least 3 times a year. So it started with a 5x5 but I needed another 5x5 well moving company did the old bait and switch demanding thousands over our quoted price and my losing 1,500 to them I had to open a larger storage to get the things in it.Automatic payments and they charge for keys and locks then they raised my prices on all three storages. It’s just crazy how they do things even to loyal customers. They would have made a lot more from me had the prices stayed the same since I was expecting close to a year for my items to remain there. Yesterday a couple friends emptied out one smalll one and was able after selling a few items to get it all into the larger storage so that will save me some until I get there in May to close it out altogether. Amanda is nice but to raise the prices like they have and I had to buy a lock for each unit, the cylinder locks when I’m used to being able to put my own lock and then they charged deposit and insurance on each unit. It’s just way to costly and i could see if they were more modern, nice and clean and all climate controlled ones but paying that much for such a poor looking units with rickety doors no I’ve got to shut all mine down and if I need a storage I will move to another location and different company ...

    Terrible. They gave me a gate code that doesn’t work. My payment is auto drafted so that isn’t the problem…If you call customer service and try to follow the prompts, it doesn’t connect you to talk to anyone. So basically I paid for my stuff to be locked away where I have no access to it ... Read more
