I had a couple different units during the last 4 years. I have been more then happy with my experience with Bay Area Storage. They are easy to contact the units are taken care of and if there is an issue they are right on it. There is a security gate that gives the extra protection for your belongings. I would definitely recommend Bay Area Storage!!!! ... Read more

Clean and affordable storage! Owner takes care of the place like it's his home, only problem is when they get a open storage unit it will not be open for long so call ahead . I did some research you can't find a better price period. ... Read more

Have had a unit there for 30+ years, old owners were great, except they wouldn't fix the gate that every tenant had a card for, to come and go anytime time you wanted, 24/7/365. I was broke into once, from the unit next to me, they simply pushed the sheeting on the wall, and walked through the studs. Note: the unit next to me vacant and there was no lock on it. New owners came along, fixed the gate opens at 6am closes at 10pm SHARP, as the sign now says and you can almost read it at night. Not long after it was fixed, I was in the area and wanted to check my unit, couldn't remember time gate closed, 10pm ot 11, owners had sent a letter informing tenants of fix and gate operation times. The clock in my truck was set 7 minuted fast, and when I looked it said 10:05 so I figured gate closed at 11pm, drove in, checked my unit, went to leave, and gate was shut. No warning gate was going to close, llike a beeper or voice on a speaker. No way to open gate, as old gate had a sensor, .just pulled up from inside, and it would open. Called office number, got voice mail, left message. Called again, same result. Started exploring options, tear gate down with truck, disassemble somehow? Owner himself called back, told me I was stuck inside until 6am, bet him 6 months rent I wasn't, and that in 30 minutes I would begin my escape, which meant damage to the gate. He arrived in 25 minutes and I was then informed of a $50 inconvenience fee. I said you're joking right? As me and the owner were talking, inside the gate, his vehicle was outside the gate, LOL, the gate closed, and his remote was in the vehicle, ..so he had to climb the fence, and open the gate for me sgain. I received a bill from them for the $50 and called to negotiate it. Kate, ..is her name, ...dont know her title, although she did claim to be a lawyer called me back with the rudest, snottiest, "You wanted to talk to me? When I asked about the high fee she went into a tirade about having to get out of bed get dressed blah blah blah for over 3 minutes. So I then explained that one time the manager mistakenly put a lock on my unit locking me out for no reason. I called at 9am, but lock wasn't removed until 2pm, I was inconvenienced for 5 as well as 2 other people who were waiting for me to get them some camping equipment. Kate screamed that was ridiculous, and sometimes mistakes are made, and I agreed, but asked wiy my mistake was costing me $50/hr, while theirs didn't matter. Another tirade, when I said maybe we'll let a judge decide, that's when I was informed Ms. Kate was a lawyer. When I asked what she was doing working at a storage unit place if she was a lawyer, she hung up on me. I gave them my required 10 vacate notice, and a bill for $250. Guess we'll see what happens. Stay tuned.... last note: when new owners took over, they wanted me to sign a new contract, and pay another deposit. We went around about that, I filled out a new contract, but didn't pay another deposit. Kinda curious to see if they give me my old one back. Pretty sure this one is going to court. ... Read more
