Read some helpful reviews of Security Self Storage at 1945 East Cornwallis Road, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

Kara A. - 12 February 2026
I’m very appreciative of Tia’s help and her friendly, professional attitude. After my previous storage unit was broken into and I received poor customer service elsewhere, Tia at Security Self Storage was a huge relief. She helped me complete my paperwork when I had trouble on my phone, got me into a unit quickly, and even assisted with scheduling a U-Haul at their sister location. She was also working there the next day and made sure I got my U-Haul quickly since my moving time was limited. Thank you, Tia, for making a stressful situation smooth and easy. ... Read more

BEWARE! DO NOT STORE ANYTHING HERE! My husband and I had rented here over 7 years. We decided to get 2 separate units instead of one big one. They quoted me a price BEFORE I moved anything. They told me I had 3 days to complete the move. After the 3 days, they told me the rate had increased while I was moving and charged me a higher rate. After 3 months they they told me my unit was evaluated for another rate increase and charged me over $40.00 more per month! After just a few months and A LOT OF MOVING, I was then paying $8 less for a much smaller unit than the biggest unit they have which was the original unit we had. On their website they show they have a 5.0 star review score, this is because they PURPOSELY REMOVE any negative reviews! I DON'T RECOMMEND THIS PLACE TO ANYONE! ... Read more

They told me I had 3 days to complete move. After the 3 days they then told me the rent increased while I was moving and charged me a higher rate. After 3 months they increased my rent again over $40! I am now in a much smaller unit and only paying $8 less than the biggest unit they have which was the original unit. I wouldn't recommend this place to ANYONE! FIND ANYWHERE ELSE BUT HERE! YOU WILL REGRET IT! ... Read more

Visited business venue regarding temporary storage. Greeted by Miss Shelby. Very pleased with professionalism of staff and cleanliness of storage unit. Impressed with Muss Shelby’s knowledge of company policies and procedures. Yes, I am renting a unit! If I could change anything, it would be to offer between 3 to 10% reduction for clients on autopay. Thank you Security Storage for having a user-friendly business model! ... Read more

I have been shopping around for a new storage unit. I seen this place on Cornwallis Rd. I stopped in. The Young Lady, I believe, Her name was Shelby? She was extremely helpful. She gave Quotes for the larger inside and outside units. She also Explained in great detail, company policy, on what's allowed and what's not allowed. Shelby was very professional and friendly. When I move, I'm definitely going to get my storage unit from this location. Shelby also gave me quotes for a U-Haul rental, again Explained everything in great detail. Security Self Storage, You need to know.. Your staff members believe in and practice Customer Service with a Smile. This interaction was a Breath of Fresh Air. ... Read more

*** There are cheaper nicer storage options ***IF YOU USE THIS FACILITY MAKE SURE YOU READ YOUR CONTRACT BEFORE SIGNING. I was tricked into thinking I was getting the advertised special on the sign, advertised when driving past the location. I am too trusting and didn't read over the contract. I also called to make sure i would getvthe deal going throught he website and was given false information. I start getting reminders to pay and I was umm..what! and they only gave me 1month free and said I wasn't set up for the 2month deal. I spoke with Cierra whom stated she was a manager and said I had no proof so I had to pay for the 2nd month. I was contacted by a Robert who left a message, I returned his call and he never called back. Cierra told me she was going to have a supervisor reach out to me and never did. She claimed she spoke to them and they said the same thing. The only reason I used this facility is because I thought I was getting a better deal. I rented a truck from uhaul directly and they would have given Me a bigger cheaper storage space with a free month. ... Read more
Raine S. - 22 August 2022
Latoya, Ashley, and Monica were incredibly helpful. They spent time explaining to us homie uhaul works, as me and my friend were very confused as to how to rent a truck. They were very helpful, and respectful. I will definitely be returning to to the business in the future for my moving needs. Great service ... Read more

The storage units offered by Security Self Storage - 1945 East Cornwallis Road can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 25 to 1,800 square feet. You can go for smaller units if you don't have a lot of items to store, while choosing a larger space is recommended in case you need to store a lot of furniture, bigger items or even vehicles.

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.

Storage units offered by Security Self Storage - 1945 East Cornwallis Road come at a variety of prices, starting from $24 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $999 a month.

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!
