"Kinnison was very professional, and helpful. She helped us get the right storage unit at a good price. Very friendly would recommend this place to everyone"
"Judy is always helpful anytime i need anything, very patient and welcoming. Thank you to her and the rest of the team for keeping my stuff safe and being great to work with! ❤️"
"I have been with life storage for a year now , life storage and I am not very happy. I have cancer treatment 6 days ago and it wipes me out so I forgot to make a payment and they tacked on over 23 dollars late charge for just 6 days I called them to ask for a 1 time credit for the late charges the woman I talked to put me on hold for about 5 minutes, came back on the line and said she would give me half off because she didn't want to ask he boss because she knows what he would say! Really she could have spoken to him and explained the situation but refused to. I was not being rude in any manner. I know $23 dollars doesn't sound like much But when you have cancer $23 minutes a lot when it comes to medications , travel expenses to and from Dr.s appointments. I would understand if I was late on my payments . If I've ever been late it's only been one time and I don't remember it. What happened that people no longer care about other people or their sitpatience why does no one ever want to give anyone a break anymore if I was a repeated situation I wouldn't understand it but a first time sequation I don't understand everybody deserves a break now and then.This is Life Storage at 48th Street and McDowell in Phoenix"

"Staff has always been very professional and friendly. The facility is always clean and carts available each time im there.
I recommend this facility to anyone looking for storage."
"First class operation in every regard. Safe and clean (I imagine there are operating rooms that are cleaner but I wouldn’t be surprised if this place was just as clean). Cannot recommend them more highly. Judy at the desk is wonderful."
"Hi I just signed up for a storage unit and Dinora was amazing. I have stored with them for over 15 years!! If you need to store you need to see them!!!!! What an amazing easy move in!!"
"this young lady named judy helped me out looking for storage unit very informative and knowledgeable would recommend this facility is very clean and well kept"
"I’ve stored my belongings at Life Storage since 2019. The units, building and parking lot are well lit and very secure. The building is always a cool comfortable temperature. The staff is always friendly and Judy is very knowledgeable and helpful. If you need to store your important items I recommend to do so here!"
"I was somewhat skeptical to get a storage unit again since I've had bad experiences at other storage companies, but the Manager kinnison put my mind at ease. Very professional and helpful. I'm definitely glad I came this location. Highly recommend."
"I want to thank you for all you guys done in the past three years.. definitely helped me when I couldn’t pay the whole rent.. went over and beyond for me and appreciate it all.. Will be using you guys in the future!! Thanks a lot"
"I have personal experience with Life Storage across 2 states and for over a 10 year period during which the company even had a change of name. So I can honestly say that it has continued to be a tried and true consistent and reliable service that I have and continue to recommend to my friends!"
"Judy went above and beyond to accommodate my last minute need for storage needs.
Extremely professional, knowledgeable and extremely friendly.
She is the absolute best, and I highly recommend Life storage!"
"Judy was absolutely amazing. She was so helpful and explained everything very well. I came here to check it all out and felt very confident and comfortable here, so decided to go with Life Storage. She is so kind and helped me with it all!"
"I have had such a wonderful experience at the Life Storage location on 900 N. 48th location.
Joe who assisted me this weekend for grabbing my son’s college things was such a gentleman.
He was very courteous and had great knowledge about the storage location. Such a joy to work with.
Thanks Life Storage"
"Very friendly, helpful staff! Our storage was clean for over a year and the staff was very accommodating during a stressful time!
The facilities are clean and the AC kept everything very cool. We will definitely recommend Life Storage to any friends and family looking for storage!"
"Love Judy she is absolutely amazing and made the whole experience go so smoothly. This is my first time getting a storage unit and I’m so happy that I came here."
"Booked a storage unit last minute and Judy went above and beyond, 5 star experience all around. Clean unit, seamless experience, great customer service. Security is top notch. Would highly recommend to anyone who is looking for a storage unit in the Phoenix area."
"Thank you to Kinnison Jones & Judy Hare . They went above & beyond to make sure all my needs were met . I strongly suggest this place. You will thank me later !!!!"
"I was asked to leave a review. Leave a nice review and your rent goes up 2 weeks later. This place stays about 100% full why the increase?
There is a hugh problem getting in and out of the place with semis parking on the street causing a blind spot and aggressive drivers not yielding the right away with near wrecks."
"I've stored with this company in three different states and happy to store with them again when I moved to Phoenix because, they build well put together secured units and provide stellar customer service that Judy and Kinneson have supercede from my previous experiences. What really impresses me storing here the past several months is how clean the property is inside and out. Anytime I need to access my storage, coincidentally they are cleaning the place."
"We rented a unit from here about a year ago and loved this place since day one! We came back to rent again and Judy was amazing at helping us rent a 10×15 unit and answered all of our questions that we had! We definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a convenient, and safe location!"
"Dinora was an absolute pleasure!!!! Everything went smoothly and quickly. She went above and beyond to make sure all my needs were met and all my questions answered. (All with a big smile and a great attitude!)
:)"
"Excellent customer service!!! Joseph was very helpful and knowledgeable. He went above and beyond to help me when they didn’t have a unit available to meet my needs. He assisted me in locating a store that did. I would highly recommend this store to friends and family."
"As soon as we walked in they were super friendly, helpful, and it was just an easy breeze going through the process. I was very pleased especially since we had just left storage America and the lady at the front desk was VERY rude."
"Judy has been such an amazing women always very helpful the staff here is simply amazing , and always clean not to mention by far the best storage I’ve been to !"
"I just want to say this storage company has truly been a shining star for me and my family to kinnison Carolle Gabby Judy Andrew and sandy thank you so much they go the extra mile"
"The storage place is spotless clean and the lady Judy is so nice I was in and out of there in 10 minutes. Very secure nice and cool great storage good location right next to the freeway."
"Great experience with remote check in and a clean, friendly environment. Judy reached out and was extremely friendly following up. We have several units here and I would suggest to any friends this location as well."
"The office ladies were amazing! They were super nice, offered us water and let us work in the conference room to access the WiFi and the AC. It was a super productive week for me thanks to these ladies! Such an amazing experience!"
"My husband and I wish to acknowledge three people and two different locations at Life Storage. First, and foremost, we must acknowledge Val at storage location# 8401. She immediately made us feel comfortable and proceeded to find us the perfect storage unit, based on our estimated need. There was no question that she could not answer and when we mentioned that we were looking for help moving, she provided us with the name of a moving company that is often seen moving people in and out of this location. She even made sure that we had well-chilled bottles of water to keep us hydrated during our move-in. Val is an excellent first experience with Life Storage!
We also want to acknowledge Gabby (sp?) at #8401 and Shaundra (sp?) at #782.
Gabby is a sweetheart, just like Val, and was tremendously helpful, as well. She was patient and kind and even stayed a little late to assist us with securing a second storage unit after we realized that we miscalculated on the size unit we actually needed.
Shaundra, at storage location #782, assisted us with leasing a 14' box truck and gave us the name of a moving company that she is personally familiar with and trusts to be reliable and fair.
We wish to comment on the appearance and cleanliness of both locations. We found both to be immaculate, modern, and secure. Location #8401 opened in April and is an impressive building! Our experience with Life Storage, thus far, has been very positive and we would highly recommend these two locations and three wonderful, professional, and friendly Life Storage associates to anyone seeking climate-controlled storage facilities in the Scottsdale area."
"Judy Lynn has always been phenomenal and has helped our company with our units. Always full of positive energy and willing to go above and beyond. I recommend Life Storage to anyone in the Phoenix valley and hope Judy Lynn is well taken care of for everything she does."
"Judy and Kinnison if I’m not mistaken greeted me with kind arms and comfort dIspite the corona going around they helped us get set with auto pay and even had conversations HIGHLY RECOMMENDED"
"I had an amazing experience! Judy was so kind and helpful. She walked us through the building and showed us the unit we would be getting. She was amazing and such a delight! The facility is very nice, clean, and extremely secure! Very happy customer! (:"
"Judy is super helpful and assisted us when we were having difficulty with our access codes on several occasions after her working hours. She went above and beyond!"
"My customer service experience was outstanding. I don't remember her name, but she was a petite lady and very sweet to me even though they were closing soon. The place itself is a no frills air conditioned storage facility. I chose life storage because I assumed they were all the same. They aren't! My last storage unit with life storage was at their 92nd st (?) location in Scottsdale and it's a drive in building. You drive into the facility and park inside and you're able to load/unload inside the air conditioned building. There was also a fridge with water and also accessible restrooms.
At this facility, you park outside, so you're loading or unloading in the elements. There are no restrooms (possibly in the office but they were closed) and no water. Be prepared! They do offer rolling carts which makes the move a lot easier."
"Just helped us get a unit today. The space is clean and air conditioned. She was very kind and nice to us. The process to rent a unit took about 15 minutes. There is a lot of security, which we really liked. Would definitely recommend."
"Judy was amazing and happily helped me quickly and efficiently resolve a payment issue I was having. She provided excellent customer service and answered all my questions."
"This is the only place I will store my belongings. I have used Uhaul in the past but there is no comparison. Clean, fair and good company to store with. You won't be disappointed!"
"I must say I had a a lot of help from Jesse. He was very prefessional and informative in helping me. Great prices and I feel this place will keep my belongings safe!!"
"Great customer service with Judy, associate manager. Very pleased with tour and selections.
Would highly recommend this location as clean and well secured."
"Came in to ask some questions and arrange move out. The staff person their Judy was very helpful and made sure I had all the info I needed. A true pleasure to have my storage here!!!"
"Needed to find a storage place last minute, the manager here was very accommodating and the prices are fair. The facility is very clean and organized and feels very secure. They offer a truck if you need one to help you move as well as dollies another moving supplies would recommend going here if you're in need of a nice storage unit at a great price"
"I worked with Judy Hare to reserve a unit. She was so helpful! I wanted to do a trial run from the entrance to the unit and she checked on me to make sure I hadnt gotten lost. She was a great help all around. I was very impressed with how clean the place is!"
"Used to be a great place, always clean and swept, elevators worked, carts always in their places at the entrance. But it changed owners. Raised storage prices, raised mandatory insurance prices, now dusty & dirty, elevators broken, elevators dirty, you have to walk the whole place to find a cart. Not too happy with them anymore."
"Had a bad experience at a different storage place, came to Life Storage and had the pleasure of meeting Judy Hare. She was fantastic! Cant say enough nice things about Life Storage and the staff."
"Friendly staff! Always helpful, very very very clean facility! 10/10 would recommend making this your next storage facility if you are serious about having a professional experience.
Judy and Jessie work incredibly hard to maintain this beautiful location.
Put these two up for a raise!"
"Jesse is extremely professional and showed me all of the benefits, deals, and discounts for the month. He gave me detailed information and kept me laughing at the same time."
"Andrew was incredible he went out of his way to show me several different storage spots very helpful and professional explained everything I needed to know about property. Very clean facility would highly recommend.Thanks again for the excellent customer service."
"I had a great experience with Karen at facility 510. She was very knowledgeable about the property and was able to answer all of my questions. She is a very friendly and personable employee. I enjoyed working with Karen, and she made me feel confident about my business with Life Storage."
"Judy and Judy were so awesome! The facility is very nice and clean, and it was very easy to rent a unit! They are also the most affordable. I highly recommend this facility!"
"Judy was at the front desk and she was very pleasant and friendly. The facility is very clean and convenient. Its a relatively easy drive to/from the downtown and Tempe ASU campuses."
"Just and Jesse were really helpful and they made getting a unit super easy. My friend has rented from them for the past two years, and it has always been super easy. This year I decided to get a unit with my friend, and again, they made it super easy and fast. I would definitely rent here again."
"Judy and Jesse are kind and funny people. They made purchasing a unit super simple and fun. 10/10 recommend this place for storage! Far prices and great service!"
"Rented a storage space with them for another 6 months and everything went great!
What wasn't great was the move out process. They do not prorate rent and you are expected to move out the 1st of the month or you will be charged for the full month.
I wasn't told this when I checked in or out and it wasn't a fun $100 life lesson to learn. (I think Uncle Bob's policies were different and may have changed under Life Storage)"
"What a great experience we had at lifestorage today, we were very impressed by the professionalism and the cleanliness of the establishment. Jesse was thorough and explaining how the lease works and we will tell everyone we know about this storage facility!"
"Nice, clean and staff are great. The facility is well maintained as well as they keep the restrooms.... rates are awsome. I'm just a mover who helped a customer btw."
"From the very first phone call I was greeted with politeness,respect, courtesy and professionalism. I will never rent anywhere else but here. Every time I have called or walked into the office, these are the nicest people to deal with. I will recommend them to anyone that needs a storage unit in ARIZONA. I will NEVER use Public storage again. They were absolutely the rudest company I have ever dealt with. I called them at least 4 times in three days and had awful experiences every time. Rude rude rude. Life Storage has excellent customer service and prices. Thank you. You were my savior."
"I've been impressed with everything about this facility from the moment I stepped foot on the property. The staff is always helpful and friendly. Keep up the good job!"
"The facility would be even better with a dumpster for renters to use. Also, the single door entering the building between the two major double door entrances is not consistent when you enter your code. Sometimes it opens and sometimes it doesn't. Frustrating!"
"i visit storage places all the time. this location is by far the nicest,cleanest and have the friendliest staff out of the many i have been to. I love how big the entry doors are. They open wide and are tall. The elevator has a turn key stop switch for loading the elevator.This is so you don't have to rush furniture in as the doors are trying to close. i wish all the storages places were built like this one"
"It really did exceed my expectations. Everything was clean, the space was perfect, easy to get to, load and unload, gates and doors always worked. I was treated well, given a nice tour, and had everything explained fully. I guess the price was a little higher than I would have liked, but that's to be expected for climate controlled."
"Crystal's customer skills are exemplary. Her thoroughness in explaining the details and taking the time to ensure you understood everything about the facility was appreciated. "
"Crystal was so incredible! She was efficient, informative, funny, and kind. I was so blown away by her customer service! It's just not something you see everyday. And let me say, when you're running a storage facility, you don't know what your customers are going through. In our case, we were moving my mom out of our childhood home over the holidays. Not easy under the best circumstances. Crystal actually made it easy. She's the BEST! You need to hire someone to give her high fives whenever she does something awesome, which would be a full time job. Not kidding. Thank you Uncle Bob's [Life Storage]!"
"It's a Wonderful facility, very well maintained, I was very pleased with everything and the manager Robin is especially nice and helpful it feels very safe and secure. I am so grateful to have my possessions stored there. And that it's air conditioned was a huge Plus for us moving from Maryland where we and our belongings not used to the Heat."
"Totally professional and courteous. Crystal was delightful to work with.
Very happy with unit provided. Appreciate the cleanliness of the entire facility.
Th a nk you so much."
"The business is well automated, so I rarely had to go into the office which is good. My goals when I went there were to get in and out as quickly as possible. The building is clean and well lit. Overall it worked very well for me. "
"Cristal was very busy on my move in date. She was awesome. She had several people moving in @ the some time and handled it all well even when confronted with some rude customers. She was professional & very helpful. Highly recommend!"
"You met all and more. I was so impressed with the personnel, the property, etc. and the AC too!
I decided to rent a bigger one as we're going to be selling our home. Customer service was the best and I've been in the customer service field for over 44 years, so I know excellent customer service when I experience it first hand. Robin and her assistant, who I can't remember her name as I dealt mostly with her, were polite, friendly, knowledgeable and made me feel as welcomed as family. "
"The associate was very friendly, patient when I had to call for my insurance on my unit and very personable. She made me feel like I was storing in the right place. The unit is well maintained and the facility is very nice, clean and easy to use. "
"We were very satisfied with our move in to Uncle Bob's Storage. Everyone was very helpful and friendly. We were able to use the truck to move our stuff in which worked out great. The facility is extremely clean. We couldn't ask for better."
"Just want to say thank you for keeping the property nice and clean, inside and out. Good customer service, answered and solved my questions. I visited another Uncle Bob's facility to rent a truck and again, same great service and that facility looked clean as well."
"I went in to rent my unit on a weekend and the man on duty was covering for someone so I figured he would be unhappy to be there! Just the opposite, he was great! Very helpful and the place was not busy at all! Great job!"
"Although my answers may seem generic and not thought out, they genuinely were. Each time I paid a visit to my unit, I would say or think how much I loved it there. It was big, clean, secure, very well put together when being built. It was also very convenient for me. I have already referred two people, one of which is a current customer. And I will continue to send my friends and family your way. Thanks for the great customer service. "
"The store manager, and employee that were there on the day i moved in were outstanding. Personable, courteous, efficient, and made me so happy that I chose this facility. I look forward to interactions with the two of them in the future. Thank you so much!"
"Matt went above and beyond to work around me not being present during my move in. He quickly and efficiently got me moved in to a bigger storage unit with no delay. THANK YOU MATT!!"
"very knowledgeable, friendly, and moved through the process quickly while answering all of my questions. I did not feel rushed at all or like I was being held up at all."
"Excellent service for the short time I needed it. A special shout out to the male employee who was working the morning of November 4th at your 48th street location, he was extremely helpful helping my friend and I load a giant dresser into our moving truck. He didn't need to help, but he did & it was incredibly appreciated!
Thanks for keeping my stuff safe while I was away!"
"I will let you know that everything was good love if. But I paid for extra days then I need it but couldn't get a refund for those days. Overall it was good. "
"I was extremely impressed with this Uncle Bob's location. The grounds and facility are immaculate and very secure. Everything from renting my storage unit, to terminating my rental period was easy and straightforward. "
"Greeter was very friendly and the first month special was wonderful! The typical rate is a little steep but having the need for only a month and a half, it worked out great!"
