Read some helpful reviews of Extra Space Storage at 8021 Mims Street, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

Efficient and courteous service from staff. On-line app is pretty easy to use. I had a unit for 16 months. Couple of drawbacks: after the 1st 4 months, the rent for a 20 by 10 unit incrementally increased from $200 to $345 per month; the other is that it is difficult to get onto HWY 1 and go north between 3:30 and 6:00 PM. ...

Bill S. - 26 February 2026
In preparation for relocating to Virginia we picked this location based on where we would be staying. It was literally selected without knowing the area or the condition of the facility. I have zero complaints about the facility. It was very clean and staff does a great job maintaining the property. Our entire household was in storage for just shy of a year, and when we were ready to collect our belongings, everything was in the same condition as it was when we stored our items. If you are in need, this is a great place to keep your items. ... Read more

The store manager BLE SERY took the time to explain all my options clearly, answered every question, and made sure I got the right unit for my needs. You can tell this company truly care about their customers everything was handled smoothly and with kindness. The facility is clean, well-organized, and secure, which made me feel confident about storing my belongings here.

The lockers are of metal construction, adjacent to brightly lit hallways that provide adequate lighting to the interior of the rented area. The floors are smooth, clean and unstained. The carts available to move your property from the door to the lockers roll smoothly under heavy loads. Ble Sery, the manager, was ready to assist when I walked into the office. He listened, then answered my questions (even about price increases). He showed me several lockers of interest, and helped me complete "paperwork" for the unit I chose. While English isn't his first language (he's from Ivory Coast), he enunciates carefully so conversations are not frustrating. I'm glad I visited several other storage facilities before going to this Extra Space Storage property. So far, I'm not disappointed. ... Read more

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 Extra Space Storage - 8021 Mims Street can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 20 to 300 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 Extra Space Storage - 8021 Mims Street come at a variety of prices, starting from $56 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $676 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!
