This lady is a crook. Stole money from my elderly mother and refused to return it. I wouldn't give her the time of day with my money. This place is a waste of space in our area. Do yourself a favor and Never trust these people with anything.. Poor attitude and no integrity or ethics what so ever...

They never answer the phone when you call. Price has increased without my knowledge. Not impressed with the manager. She supposedly put me down for reoccurring payments, that never happened . Now I get a notice of missed payment, but it’s my fault.

I would not recommend this storage to anyone. Ever since I opened it I have had problems. First with the code that I was given would not work so I had to make a new one. And now with my storage being locked everytime I come up here. I understand there is a late fee and that a lock will be placed after not paying but I have paid my bill twice and both times it has been three to five days and I keep coming up here only to have a lock on my storage and I have to call jsut to have someone take it off.

Once they realize you no longer care about the stuff in the unit they try and bully you into telling you it's YOUR responsibility to move the stuff out even after you tell them to cut the lock and auction the stuff. But why wouldn't they? They're losing money and taking a gamble on whatever's in the unit. Legally the account SHOULD'VE been settled the moment I made the phone call and told them to auction whatever was in the unit.

Today was the fourth time I wasn't able to get into my storage because the gate code wasn't working.I've havent had this issue with my storage lockers in Florida.I have 4 lockers at Blue and spending over $700 during my move. Call the number At the gate And it rang for three or four minutes and nobody answered.Went to the manager's office and I was told there's an issue due to the storm. Always a different excuse..

I've had my storage unit for 6months, give or take, and it seems like every other time I go to get something in my unit or take something out of it, the code never seems to want to work when using the pin pad. …

Used to be an excellent storage unit, but they got bought out. Since then they don't answer phone or email, and have a terrible attitude when you do finally reach someone.
