The building is a serious health hazard. Completely infested with mice like nothing I've ever seen. I witnessed several mice (5 all out together) crawl out of the hole they made in my sofa where I assume they were living and scurried away in front of my eyes while I was removing my things from the space. I then witnessed a mouse that came running out of the storage across from mine which I believe was vacant and ran straight pass my feet into my storage. I have never seen anything like it. Absolutely horrifying. Thousands of dollars of my belongings were ruined and had to be disposed of due to the rodent infestation. I was storing my things in a climate controlled indoor space for a month and half between a move to insure they would be in good condition and not be at risk of being ruined by mice or elements. Very unfortunate decision on my end. My experience with this storage was overall very poor due to the losses I suffered, and I was not reimbursed in any way even with paying for insurance coverage. I will say, The two women managing the place are very kind and one sent the email to the insurance after I brought the conditions of the storage unit to her attention and said she was going to call pest control. I have not heard back from the insurance yet and plan on reach out today. I know that many other customers have experience their items being ruined as well because it was stated by the manager that, “they were allowing customers to use the staff only dumpster because of how many customers had to discard of their items due to the mice.” I would have appreciated if they had been transparent about the rodent infestation from the beginning so I could have had the option of finding another space and avoided the thousands of dollars worth of property loss or at the very least, be able put some sort of rodent repellent in my personal storage. Although, with the extent of the infestation, personal rodent repellent likely wouldn’t be enough to stop those mice. I hope this company prioritizes an exterminator to avoid more customers property being damaged and ruined. ... Read more

Called in to get a price for storing my classic car over the winter and they would not give me a single price for anything. They kept asking me questions about my personal information and still did not give me any information. Not doing business here. ... Read more

I would never recommend this storage unit facility to anyone! In June of 2024 the unit had structural damage and therefore the building was closed until they could fix and reopen. Without being informed or have my consent they placed a red lock on my unit because my unit was apart of the damage. I was never notified about any of this until the day I went to go remove my items on August 25th 2024, I couldn’t because of them not informing me about putting a red lock on my unit and I had to wait until the next day when the office was open to speak to someone. When I spoke to Chelsea the store manager at Cubesmart on Cobb in Kalamazoo Michigan on August 26th 2024 she told me they were keeping everything on the low about what was going on inside the unit and they were not informing any customers about locking their units with red locks. I would never recommend this place as they were withholding my personal items without my consent and that is illegal to do. Never ever store your stuff here! Pictures attached show water damage inside my unit and I did not know about until the day I pulled all of my items out. ... Read more

The business had been opened about a month when I posted this review so I grabbed a unit a week ago. This review is written with little experience. That being said, I could not find anything to deduct any points. So it's a definite 5 star at this point. I'll update if any updates are necessary. Hopefully it remains at 5. But if you're looking for affordable storage stop looking, you've found it. ****UPDATE**** I finished out the month with them. But only because I no longer needed a unit. Lucky for me because prices increased a lot. They're no longer the affordable solution they were. I had to include the price increase because I can't recommend them if you're looking for something based on price. ... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions

There is a wide array of amenities available for the storage units that National Storage - 831 Cobb Avenue has to offer. These amenities include Climate-Controlled, Indoor, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Contactless Renting, Security Camera, Parking, Keyless Unit Access 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 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.

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!
