I was really lucky to get a small unit here to hold my things for a few months before I complete a big move. I've interacted with 4 different employees here and they have all been helpful. I always always forget how to use the freight elevator so each time an employee has had to show me what to do again. The lift has always worked the times I needed to use it. The big freight elevator made it really easy to move all my things into and out of the storage unit. I used a U-box to move my things out and had it parked for a short period of time just next to the lift. Closing my account was straightforward and hassle-free. Maria helped me open my account and she was the one who helped me close the account. If you need a (super) affordable basic option, this is perfect. Nope, it's not climate controlled and yes, the hours are "limited". If you're not having to constantly get into your storage unit I can't imagine the hours being a big issue. ... Read more

Cheapest in the area. Not open 24 hours, but if you don't need to get things in and out all the time it's should be fine. Our storage unit is ground level and seemed very clean and dry when we got it. Staff was nice the few times we came in and out. Worth it for the price. ... Read more

Customer Service you should not have to argue with someone just to get their name. Who ever we spoke to was the most inpatient, rude, inhospitable person i have ever had to deal with. I actually felt like i had called a bill collector. We will drive the 45 minutes away to get what we need simply due to this ... Read more
