Coreplex - 27 February 2026
GM was on point, presenting herself, her business, and her process in a very professional and customer-service-oriented manner. The building is new, clean, and offers many storage options with an online portal that suits my account needs. The only thing to add is that there is a single entrance and exit, which is good for security. However, the entrance immediately has a small hill that leads directly to the building's unloading entrance. It is a small concern with winter weather, and personal items could easily roll downwards. I would have liked the building to sit back a bit more on a longer level surface. But it is what it is, and for the most part, an excellent spot. Location: Portsmouth, VA. ... Read more

Lynn was exceptionally helpful, she didn’t rush me and she took her time to make sure I was well informed about every detail dealing with the storage facility and it’s benefits and security measures to make sure my items were at the safest location they could possibly be. She even took the time to walk me through different units so I could see the sizes in person including one for a future size I will be needing. Top tier! I’ve been to many different facilities but I will be using this one just because of her! Thank you Lynn! ... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions

There is a wide array of amenities available for the storage units that CubeSmart Self Storage - 1415 Effingham Street has to offer. These amenities include Climate-Controlled, Indoor, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Contactless Renting, Security Camera, Gate, Parking, Elevators, First Floor Access, Multi-Level Storage 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 CubeSmart Self Storage - 1415 Effingham Street can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 25 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 CubeSmart Self Storage - 1415 Effingham Street come at a variety of prices, starting from $52 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $266 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!
