Do not recommend!!! I've had several units and one of my units flooded but the insurance they make you pay for doesn't cover rain damage so half my property was ruined. Staff is rude. The driveway is impossible for trailers. Do not rent from here.

The whole experience went to crap today. I signed up online. With all the vehicle info and vin. I have insurance but purchased extra, just in case. I also set up auto-draft. I was immediately called and discussed the situation. They were requesting the title in my name. I let them know that would be impossible since it was my recent deceased uncles name. She said they would have to have a death certificate. Impossible, he hasn't even been cremated yet.

My only problem was that the gate wouldn’t open to get out. We were stuck inside for over an hour because the gate wasn’t working. Apparently it’s a thing that happens regularly since other people that were there stuck with us told us. This was on a Sunday afternoon around 4 pm. Unacceptable, I was about to call the cops to let us out but we got lucky that someone was able to open the gate from the outside and let us out.

Place was very unprofessional, didn’t have the uhaul pulled up. Made us walk out in the field to get it. It hasn’t been washed in idk how long and has a tire that wouldn’t pass inspection on it. Then they aren’t open on Sunday to return it there so bc they set it up wrong It took 3-4 hours out of our day calling uhaul for anyone to figure out where to drop it off! I wouldn’t use this place if it was my last option.

This place is disgusting. The rats started chewing on my wood furniture, rat and mice droppings everywhere. There is even snakes in there, I have pictures and and videos of snake skins (yes multiple) inside my specific storage room. The office personnel are rude and unprofessional. When you walk into the buildings you can instantly tell how hot and humid it is. They are not climate controlled at all.

Easton M After reviewing our customer data base, we have not been able to locate in account in your name. Could you possibly be referring to a different storage facility in the area. Climate Control hallways are maintained at 78 degrees which is standard in the industry.

Hey yo. I started renting on this joint back in 2009 when it was like less than $70 a month for the unit I'm in now. Didn't trip when it went up a little a year later. But it's crazy how much it is now. If y'all ain't willing to price match for the same size unit, with climate control, I'll gladly use my much deserved days off and get my stuff out. And my stuff still better be there.

1-star Google reviewMg R.6 years ago
We have stored our trailer there for the last few months. Upon checking it this week, the lock system had been dismantled from the trailer and someone had removed our jacks. Inside the trailer, someone had undone our travel first aid kit and strewn used gauze about the trailer. The bed had clearly been slept in. The storage facility is gated, but the gate is always open.
Reply from the business

Hi Mg, We apologize that this has occurred at our facility. We will be glad to work with you and the local authorities to try and determine what happened and possibly by whom. The gate to the faculty is open only during office hours because the office access is located behind the gate.

This place is the worst storage place ever!! The unit my items was in was always hot. They don't fix anything in a timely manner. Their regional manager name Kim is very rude!!! I don't recommend this place to anyone if this was the last place on earth!! Their business suck and they tell you lies just to get your money. God don't like ugly Kim!!!!

5-star Google reviewrachel7 months ago
Cici was amazing if you want a place that you know your stuff’s gonna be protected and safe. This would be the place to go no hassle. I reserved my unit online hasslefree I went there and it took a matter of 10 minutes tops to get everything situated and taken care of and anytime I called or needed assistance. They are always on top of things seriously I don’t think I’ve ever been to a storage unit where they were so professional and The most important thing for me is that cici made me feel important she didn’t…

4-star Google reviewLaSonya W.2 years ago
Overall the storage was a pleasant place to be and I felt comfortable with my items being at this facility. I was somewhat displeased when they changed over to free up storage. I felt harassed by the frequent messages, and calls from Sylvia. Even after i asked her nicely if she would not call me. That was something I didn't have an issue with from previous owners. I was aware of when my fees were due. Sylvia was nice, but the calls were annoying.
