1-star Google reviewBrian S.Edited a year ago
Not safe or healthy place to Store your things. They allow people to stay in the drive thru during the day/night, as in live in it. They know they are there as they have video cameras every where. They also know mold was left in the open air storage area on the north side of the drive thru for 2 months. Very nasty air borne mold based on professional restoration people that looked at my belongings after they were ruined. This company doesn't care about their customers. ONLY WANTS YOUR MONEY!!!

don't give you one month free but they sure do make up for it in their outrageous late fees and I'll never go back there again. I've been homeless moving from one place to the next and just barely can afford to pay for a place to live and they want to charge me $35 in late fees and it's just ridiculous I can get a storage building for $35 somewhere else

We are so sorry you did not have a good experience incurring late fees at a time when you could not afford them. Please call [phone removed] if you need to discuss billing further. We care about our customers.

2-star Google reviewBilly H.2 years ago
Nice place, but the staff parks inside and even in the way of the doors. So you either have to lug your stuff around their vehicle or go ask them to move: Almost every time I’ve been in I have had to go ask, can you please move your vehicle so I can access the unit. They do, however it’s none the less extremely frustrating.

We have been very disappointed in how this location’s parent company has handled a failed roof and didn’t notify anyone for over a month!!! …

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.

One of the best storage places I’ve ever rented, and I’ve moved a lot. This unit was not only clean, the people were very friendly and informative. This is one of the best climate controlled units in Longview.

I have been with this company for 2 years. Patrick has been a blessing. He is so helpful and always has a pleasant attitude. Never had any problems. I recommend this facility to anyone who is looking for a safe, clean, and secure place to put your belongings. And Patrick is just a plus. Thank you Simply Store it for 2 years of service ....

I had a great experience at Simply Stor-It. Being an indoor storage unit kept everything at room temperature so I didn’t have to worry about anything melting. The cameras assured me I wouldn’t have to worry as much about theft and the staff was kind and answered any questions I had.
