    Staff is always friendly and helpful. Hour are Meh, ?? not always convenient for those who work during the day. I just had this unit for two month and it was $50 bucks now they’re increasing it to $73 since it month to month. But there also no long term agreement offered as well. Plus if you don’t have renters insurance they’ll expect you to pay $15 extra dollars a month. Even after submitting my forms they didn’t apply it so I had to resubmit and call them to make sure they applied it and removed the fee. If you don’t want to deal with the hassle dont bother but you otherwise they’re good. ... Read more

    I have rented storage space previously in the old building, this time I had the outdoor storage space. Way better, I like the idea of having the option to enter at your timing. With security cameras, so sad to know people was living in their storage space! (They were really nice and helpful,they didn’t bother me they also helped me move my stuff out)But it really does get costly trying to pay rent and pay for storage. Customer service was great! ...

    I’m absolutely not impressed!!! We’ve been with this company for over a year and there has been on going issues. Most recently we rented a moving truck twice to grab some items during the listed hours. No one was there and there is no direct number to contact someone. The website hours changed without notification but yet they have no issues reminding us that our bill is due or when there is an increase. The call center that your call is directed to is helpless as they are given incorrect information as well. I run a business and need people who reliable. This company is not!! ... Read more

    MOVE OUT...... THIS NEW MANAGEMENT COMPANY IS FULL OF IT!!!!! I WILL NEVER REFER THEM NOR RENT FROM THEM AGAIN. THEY ARE ALL ABOUT THE MONEY NOT THEIR CUSTOMERS. FIRST, THERE'S A THOUSAND NUMBERS TO CALL FOR ONE FACILITY. THEY ARE UNPROFESSIONAL! WHEN THEY TOOK OVER, I RECEIVED AN EMAIL OF MY NEXT BILL, (LIKE I USUALLY DO). THEY TOOK OUT OF MY BANK ACCOUNT MORE MONEY THAN WHAT THE EMAIL STATED. I WAS TOLD THAT THE EXTRA WITHDRAW WAS FOR INSURANCE. THIS WAS NOT MENTIONED IN THE EMAIL. THE THING IS, I HAVE RENTERS INSURANCE AND COULD HAVE USED IT TOWARDS THE BILL IF I HAD BEEN ASKED FIRST. NEXT, I'M PLANNING TO MOVE OUT. I WOULD LIKE TO MOVE OUT ON 9/13/25, AND ASKED IF THEY WOULD PRORATE THE SEPTEMBER BILL. "NO", I WAS TOLD, "THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE FULL MONTH"; HOWEVER, "I COULD STILL MOVE OUT ON 9/13"???? WHAT PERSON IN THEIR RIGHT MIND IS GOING TO PAY FOR A WHOLE MONTH WHEN MOVING OUT IN TE MIDDLE OF THE MONTH? THEY NEED MONEY THAT BAD TO WHERE THEY COULD NOT ACCOMMODATE A CUSTOMER WHO'S BEEN THERE 7 MONTHS. THEY DO NT VALUE THEIR CUSTOMERS ONLY MONEY!!!!! RUN............ ... Read more

    In my honest opinion i staying with Rochester Storage, because of their property manager, Gregg! I had a broken latch on my unit door that had been an issue for 9 months, yes, nine months. When I met Gregg for the first time back in February, he had just started the job. I mentioned the problem, and he didn’t brush it off or pass the buck he personally made sure it got taken care of. And here’s the thing: I asked him directly — fixing that kind of issue isn’t even in his job description. He’s the property manager, not maintenance. But Gregg clearly takes pride in doing right by his tenants. He got it fixed quickly and followed through, something I really appreciate after months of waiting. If you’re looking for a place where the management actually cares and takes initiative, Rochester Storage is it , thanks 100% to Gregg. Give that man a raise! ... Read more

    I always love coming in to pay my bill in person—just to see that handsome face of Gregory! ?? I was reading the reviews and it made me smile to see that he has this same effect on everyone. He may always be busy, but he never makes me feel like I’m a bother. Anytime there’s a problem or I need help, he’s right there, ready to take care of it. Great customer service, great personality, and let’s be honest—great to look at too! Keep up the good work, Gregory! ... Read more

    My name is Kathy Singleton, and I’ve been renting at Rochester Storage for a while now. There were some complications with the new owner’s call system, especially when it came to paying bills — it was frustrating at first. But once I brought it to Gregg’s attention, he didn’t brush it off. Instead, he gave me his direct work phone number so I could reach him personally if I had any issues. Ever since then, I haven’t had a single problem. Every time I come in, I see Gregg out there helping customers — especially if they’re older or by themselves. It honestly looks like he’s running the whole place by himself, and somehow still manages to make time to help everyone and solve problems on the spot. ... Read more

    I can’t say enough good things about Rochester Storage! Gregory — whether he’s the owner or property manager — went above and beyond to help my elderly grandmother move all her belongings into her storage unit. He treated her with so much kindness and patience, making what could’ve been a stressful day feel easy and smooth. You don’t come across that kind of care and professionalism often. The unit was clean, secure, and exactly what we needed — but it was Gregory’s help that really made the experience stand out. If you’re looking for a trustworthy storage place with real people who care, look no further than Rochester Storage. Thank you again, Gregory — you’re a real one ... Read more

    If I could rate this company lower I would. They were extremely unprofessional. I got no confirmation about my reservation, even though I continuously emailed and called asking them to confirm the storage. They called multiple times asking what they were doing, when I had already detailed what was being moved and when, and it had been verbally confirmed-but like I said they did not write it down anywhere. Because I was so uncomfortable with the service I took my business elsewhere. When I called to cancel my reservation, Michael was rude and unprofessional on the phone, and ended up hanging up on me when I said I was canceling. I would caution anyone planning on using Central Storage to look elsewhere because of how terrible my experience with them was. ... Read more

    I initially went to central storage because of their very fair pricing, As I entered the facility I found it to be very clean and orderly, I was relieved. The staff was excellent, Jimmy helped me thru the intake process and made it painless, Sean the elevator operator and unit coordinator has an uncanny way of being where he is needed, he was a pleasure. At the end of our stay we met Michael, the building manager, the operation reflected his personality,( meticulous ) and his status did not stop him from pitching in to help us load up. these guys enjoy what they are doing and it shows, I would not go elsewhere if the need arises. ...
