    Eli N. - 3 July 2026
    I have been trying to pay my bill or find out if I can pay online since 7/1/2023. I was told the office was closed and promptly hung up on the one and only time I reached someone. I believe it was the manager Tiffany, since she is the only female I know who works on site. At first I believed that this was a blessing from the hevens, but after only a few short weeks it has turned into a nightmare. I sincerely hope and pray my belongings will be safe and not taken since I have tried numerous times to pay my bill and either the office is closed or she's not available. If the owner would contact me regarding a couple of more privateissues, it would be greatly appreciated. This concerns the more than unprofessional conduct I have observed from the staff. I am not attempting to do anything more than pay for what's owed and get my belongings out of that facility. If this were my business I believe I would do some investigating of my own. It won't be long until your business gets sued for something that could've been easily avoided. Now that my fiancé and I have shared our reviews, the manager Tiffany is telling us to take our reviews down or she will share the personal messages between her and my fiancé. Another added reason not to use this facility, in my opinion if the manager can't keep to herself and tries to seduce other people's mates, what else is she capable of??? ... Read more

    Our camper was stolen from this storage facility. We were informed our plates were found on a stolen car by the police. We contacted the facility to check on our camper. The manager assured us our camper was not stolen, still in the storage facility with no damage to it. 2 weeks later we find out this information was incorrect. Our camper was in fact stolen. The manager did not check our assigned parking spot. Just seen a same brand camper completely on the other side of where our parking spot is. When asked to check the security cameras- we were informed they can only go 2 weeks back. Conveniently that is when we were informed of the stolen plates. ... Read more
