The girl that works there is very unprofessional and has no idea how to talk to customers. I rather pay $20 more somewhere else. She wouldn’t even give me a number so I could talk to management.

My Experience with Move It Storage was just great. Martha Cano has been the lady that has always worked with me for and thing that I may have needed. She is a great person to work with she is very polite and has a lot of patients. I recommend Move In Storage for anyone that may need a safe place for their personal belongings. You won't retreat haven gone there. Maggie Lucio (client) and a very happy one. 12/21/2021

Mercenary. They increase penalties way too often and by a big amount. I would do 0 stars if I could. Not penalties, but storage fees. I have never had a penalty in 11 years, but the increase in storage fees is horrible.
Reply from the business

We apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced, Maribel. Our penalty fees are periodically reviewed to ensure fairness and to cover the costs associated with managing storage units. We value your feedback and will take it into consideration for future adjustments.

What satisfied customers point to

The same method, applied to the four and five star reviews. Most movers are praised for the same handful of things, so what is missing here is often as telling as what is present.

We've used the storage unit for a while now. Never had an issue. It is under new management and they have been great. The price did go up slightly but we were told in advance that it would. We'll keep using them until we have no need for extra storage.
