When calling for a storage unit I had no idea what to expect. I have had such bad experiences with anything involving customer service. To my pleasant surprise a kind and charismatic woman answered the phone she introduced herself as Stephanie. Stephanie was helpful and quick to accommodate myself and my boyfriend. Stephanie was at the Montgomery location and was quick to accommodate us offering to drive to the Cardenas location where we were hoping to acquire our storage unit. I did not get the impression like her job was just a paycheck to her.Caring for people as individuals in an effortless and nonjudgmental manner came naturally to her. A few times I had to change the size of my unit and the inconveniences to her did not change her mood or the atmosphere. Which consistently stayed positive and friendly. We need more people like Stephanie in Customer service positions. I would recommend anyone looking to get a storage unit to rent one from aaa ulockitstorage it based on my experience with Stephanie alone. ... Read more

This company is something else every a couple of months they will raise your rent by $20 it's not a lot but it's enough and they will threaten you to pay by saying there gonna auction it off but haven't done the proper procedures to do so the staff is very rude and lately I haven't been able to get into the gate to access my storage unit. I can't wait until I can get my stuff out of there so I don't have to deal with them anymore. ... Read more

Can’t never get a hold of them to return the unit! Called, e-mailed, messaged, never get a reply then continuing to bill me monthly for the empty unit. Management please do better with communicating with your customer. ... Read more

Yes it would be great if they didn't close at 6 in the winter and otherwise 7-7, and Sundays would be great, but the staff (Alma and Alyssa) are so helpful and the prices beat Extra Space etc, that they are a wonderful choice. :-) ... Read more

These amenities include Drive-Up Access, Onsite Manager, Gate, Credit Cards Accepted, First Floor 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 storage units offered by AAA U-Lock-It Self Storage - 1417 Cardenas Road SE can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 25 to 250 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 AAA U-Lock-It Self Storage - 1417 Cardenas Road SE come at a variety of prices, starting from $45 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $203 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!
