Read some helpful reviews of Glacier West Self Storage, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

Glacier West Storage does not care about those of us who attempt to cover our rent bills due to being on a fixed income. Yes I have been late and I have swalled their fees because that is how this business operates. I have a large balance because they slap lien fee upon lien fee and you can talk to them and get no place. I don't have a pile of money and they are conveniently located and I am disabled so it was close to where I live. Today I've talked to them to hold off auction of our belongings. I suggested writing a postdated check for tomorrow. I suggested that I could make a payment when my Social Security is deposited at midnight tonight or pay online but their web site is worthless to access. I suggested I arrive at the business when it opens at 9:30 am tomorrow and catch up my bill. These things were unacceptable to them. I offered to vacate the storage unit by June first before the next billing. I had talked several times over the past couple weeks with their staff that I could not make up the past due until I received my Social Security payment which comes after they have auctioned my property. This business does not care about anyone's money problems. They are not flexible about payment within the first 10 days but begin charging fees after the first. Worse than a credit card! ...

We had a fantastic experience with Glacier View Self Storage, even though we were with them for just a short time. From the start, the team was incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the process go more smoothly. On a particularly stressful move-out day, we ran into an issue and needed our lock cut off. I called in a bit of a panic, but Mary came to our rescue! Her professionalism and warmth immediately put us at ease. She arrived promptly and quickly took care of the issue, which was a huge relief in the middle of a hectic day. We truly appreciate everyone at Glacier View Self Storage, but Mary went above and beyond and really saved the day for us. Thank you so much for your incredible customer service! ... Read more

Found myself in need of a place to park a vehicle. Spoke to Mary in office about availability. She never stopped smiling, was a consummate professional, and she quickly answered ALL my questions. I asked her to reserve the spot until I could speak to my wife and she did right away then agreed to call me the next day. She followed through and called me, handled the rental over the phone quickly with enthusiasm and made sure I clearly understood everything I needed to know. She even convinced me to use autopay despite my being strongly against it. During both day's interactions, I truly felt like a valued customer and not just a coworker. THANK YOU MARY ... Read more

Glacier West has the best units and customer service in the Arlington/Smokey Point area! As a resident of the nearby Lodge Apartments, the location couldn't be better. After booking the unit and my move in date online (very easy to do), I received a follow up phone call from the front office ensuring I had everything I needed. Jasper was extremely professional, polite, and answered all of my questions with confidence. The staff at the front office was wonderful too! The complex is secure (locked gate / personal code required) and clean, and so was my unit! Overall I have had a 10/10 experience! Thanks Glacier West! ... Read more

I recently received military orders out of state. I am active duty and have been re-assigned to the state of Tennessee. We utilized a storage unit at Glacier West Self Storage to house our 3 bedroom home while we stayed in a full time RV for 2 years. I was a bit nervous to see the condition of our goods after storing for so long. The units are climatized and I was extremely happy to see that our furniture looked the same as it did 2 years ago. In addition the moving company needed to access the site prior to the employee working hours and Jasper without hesitation offered to meet us prior to his working hours. He was extremely understanding and very supportive. If your an in bound or out bound military family looking to store long term or short term contact Jasper at Glacier West Self Storage. ...
