Disclaimer: I am reviewing the customer service at Storage Sense, not the quality of the actual facility. I am shocked and disappointed to offer this review today. I visited Storage Sense last week and confirmed with the manager Jakob that I would be renting a unit, at which time a reservation was made and appointment scheduled to come in and complete the paperwork. Initially, Jakob and Mike were friendly, helpful and agreeable. As an RN and the caregiver of a disabled, ailing family member, I have taken on many responsibilities regarding their overall care, their property, and their well-being, including securing a storage unit at Storage Sense for their belongings. Since the unit was going to be rented under their name, and with their insurance, they accompanied me to Storage Sense to complete the intake paperwork on the agreed upon day. Unfortunately, they became ill upon arrival to the facility. I asked Jakob if we could reschedule the appointment. He said this would be fine, I provided the requested documentation (insurance policy and ID), and he instructed me to complete the online lease agreement. My family member and I left the facility with the understanding from Jakob and Mike that we would be renting the unit pending completion of the online lease and returning to the facility to pick up keys. As soon as we had submitted the online lease agreement and payment, less than an hour after leaving the facility, we received a call from Mike saying that (I will quote from memory) "as a private company, we have the right to refuse service to anyone, without explanation." We were denied the previously agreed upon unit and the lease we had just submitted (at Jakob and Mike's request) was rejected, however, my credit card was charged. As my family member's caregiver, I initiated the rental on their behalf, and I informed Jakob that she would be accompanying me to sign the paperwork. Perhaps this was surprising or inspired suspicion (other caregivers may understand the balancing act of being the point person for an independent individual who, due to illness or disability, often requires support or accommodation). But the only thing that changed between the first meeting and the second meeting at Storage Sense was that my disabled family member was present. It feels as if the staff at Storage Sense changed their minds due to prejudices/discrimination against an older person with an illness. When I asked Mike on the phone if he could offer more information about how they arrived at this decision, he simply repeated that they are not required to provide an explanation, and can refuse service to anyone. Admittedly, I became emotional at this, as I have dedicated a great deal of my energy to supporting my family member over the past few years, and I am very protective of them. However, when I brought up that it felt as if they had changed their minds only after my family member came into the facility, and that makes me worry that Storage Sense is discriminating against them, Mike replied that I was being rude and disrespectful and hung up on me. This didn't give me a chance to discuss the fact that we had already submitted our online payment for the unit, and the charge has already been made to my credit card. An entire day was spent viewing and considering multiple facilities in the Fox Cities area, and I was initially very happy with Storage Sense. However, after this experience, I can not recommend a company that would arbitrarily cancel an agreement, without explanation, in a way that feels uncomfortably like prejudice and discrimination. ...

I had a wonderful experience with Storage Sense. I struggled with a discount code when reserving a unit and I was helped in person then it was applied to my account. I also got to view multiple different units than the one I initially reserved which was beyond helpful in deciding which size would work for my needs. This was all around a great experience and will keep storage sense in mind for myself and others in the future. ... Read more

This is the second time that I've rented a unit and everytime my experience has been stellar. This time in particular because the online portal was down so the worker helped me get my storage unit same day over the phone. The facility is always clean and well maintained. ... Read more

Hello, I had a few things to store in Appleton, WI. After a search in the area, “Storage Sense”popped up and it was truly smooth sailing after I discovered it. I’ve had units with different companies around the country and this was the easiest process I’ve ever had. The online process was easy and so convenient as I only had 48hrs to figure it all out. After accessing my unit and unloading a few things, Mike, who seems to be one of the managers for the property, introduced himself. Mike was so patient and kind…he explained all the “ins and outs” of the property. Mike was so kind, clear, and just a pleasant, inviting person. The process was flawless. Easy online process and Mike topped it off once I was on site. 5 stars! Thank you, Mike, for your pleasant disposition and professionalism. Cheers! ... Read more

The employee's were great, greeted us, showed us around and listened to our concerns from a previous storage disaster. Told us about the hefty security the facility has and were generally friendly. Really nice and clean facility with plenty of parking. I'm really glad I chose to store our stuff there, it feels secure. ... Read more

Used Storage Sense as my Penske rental drop-off location. Staff were friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Restroom and public areas of storage facility were very clean. Broad driveway and parking lot makes for easy in-and-out even with a big truck and trailer. Just use the Mason St. stoplight to loop around the side facing away from college ave. ... Read more

Agent was very friendly, knowledgeable, and polite. It's rare you get all three customer service skills this day and age anymore. This was even through the phone calls to set up my unit. Also my budget was tight and they readjusted unit size to make it more affordable to me at this time. Thank you to ALL staff at storage sense. I feel like I don't have to worry about my belongings I have to store for the time being! ... Read more

Reasonably affordable; I like the added security of the code and gated entry while entering & leaving. I enjoy that it's a climate controlled environment. Very convenient, you can get packages shipped here, to the office, and bring them to your storage unit! It's pretty nice, clean and they have a restroom. Just note: They do have office hours that you have to abide by when picking up packages that you get delivered. ... Read more

These amenities include Climate-Controlled, Indoor, Drive-Up Access, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Contactless Renting, Security Camera, Gate, Parking, Elevators, 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 Storage Sense - 1117 West Washington Street can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 120 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 Storage Sense - 1117 West Washington Street come at a variety of prices, starting from $119 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $299 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!
