"I have 3 storage units and Charles is amazing. He is truly a class act when it comes to customers and taking care of all of us. I have 3 units and each one has been amazing and he is always thinking of logistics for future. I can count on Charles for a laugh, a smile or when having a bad day a quick chat. He always has time for his customers and I am glad he manages the property I use for my small business storage needs. All my units were clean and Charles has also been helpful with his time.
I appreciate Charles so much."
"I used Life Storage on Alma School in Scottsdale for 7 months. Charles Brumley was GREAT. He was helpful in getting our unit set up last July, showing me how to use the lock and the second entrance which was much closer to my unit. When we decided to move our goods out of the unit, he explained the monthly prorate policy which helped me save a few hundred dollars. He is very customer focused providing excellent customer service - always a smile and always willing to help."
"I never would have imagined a storage place could be so pristine! Add to that truly professional customer service (yes, Charles still knows what customer service is), better-than-expected prices and a convenient, safe location and this becomes the only reasonable choice. As a rule, I don't leave reviews but Charles and this Life Storage location near Troon deserve accolades."
"I’ve been using Life Storage on and off for over a year. Clean, safe, and friendly staff. Charles seems to always be there with a smile and friendly hello."
"This has been such an amazing storage unit to utilize for storage of vehicles, items, and even getting mail. I have used it for several years now. I high recommend it. Charles is wonderful to work with and goes above and beyond for the customers."
"We worked with Charles, the store manager. He was awesome to work with. He ensured we had all of the necessary information to reserve and secure the unit properly. He made it an easy process!"
"Thank you, Charles, for making the move and storage experience the best it could be! Your facility is immaculate and I’m so happy to work with you. Thank you so much for all of your help!"
"Great place to store things!! Extremely clean, safe, and has the best staff! Charles is always so nice and friendly! Would recommend 100% recommend to anyone needing storage"
"Charles the manager is the absolute BEST! He has created a real community with all the tenants. Knows everyone by name and is always there to greet you with a smile. He makes swinging by storage fun part of my day!"
"Probably one of the best storage experiences available in Arizona. I’m from Chicago and was looking for a reputable company to trust.
Charles was so helpful, provided great service, knowledgable and friendly. He took the time to help me with my account and streamline my move out process. I’ve worked with other storage companies and this is by far the most personalized and customer focused."
"Today I had a top tier storage experience. Charles at this location 26520 N Alma School Road in Scottsdale was attentive, friendly and knowledgable.
Coordinating large items in and out is stressful but he made the process easy! Excited to use Life Storage again and hope to work with Charles again."
"I have rented two storage units, a POBox and had documents shredded. Charles is the best. Highly recommend this storage facility. Clean, well lit, accessible and friendly service"
"Life storage on Alma School in Scottsdale is the ultimate place to store anything. It’s extremely clean, well protected, and well managed. Charles is extremely helpful, professional and personable. He is an asset to this company.
The units are easily assessable. It would not be possible to find a better situation."
"We only left 'Life-Storage' at Alma School in Scottsdale because we left the City....Life-Storage was everything we could have asked for,,,,
Of SPECIAL note, 'CHARLES', the Manager, is OUTSTANDING....professional, very personable and very knowledgeable....an important ASSET to Life-Storage.
Thank You For Asking.
Brian"
"I have a storage unit here. Last night I was in the unit and it was extremely hot making it very uncomfortable for me and the 3 people helping me to load up some things. We all were sweating 🥵 like crazy. It is advertised as air conditioned but believe me it was barely tolerable. It is a nice setup but please turn up the air-conditioning!!!"
"Charles was fantastic at finding the right unit and best deal. The facility was always very clean and everyone very helpful. I wish all aspects of moving were easy and helpful as our experience with Life Storage."
"We needed a storage unit for the next day and Charles was my hero! Everything went so smooth and our family can now take the time to go through our parents leftover furniture on our own time. Life Storage and Charles made it easy!"
"We had heard time and again what a special place Life Storage was...and after meeting Charles and Kelly we realized why. They both embody all the values of a good business...a passionate concern for every customer and all their needs. This place is 5 Star Plus!"
"Charles is amazing and provides great customer service. He is very personable and helped out diligently with the storage rental process to make sure we were happy and we were getting what we wanted/needed. He is an asset to the company. In addition the storage facility is always neat, clean and presentable! Great place!"
"When planning a location change from Nevada to Scottsdale, I initially discussed our 'move' and the need for excess storage space over the 'phone with Charles at this location.....His welcoming personality and space suggestions helped make our subsequent move 'seamless'. Charles is a major asset.
Since we started using the space, everything has been handled excellently. The facility is well-located for North Scottsdale residents and is very well maintained; easy to navigate within the building; and has a secure and safe atmosphere.....We are very satisfied clients of Life Storage."
"Charles, the store manager, was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. He did everything possible to make sure our needs were accomplished. His units are very clean and he takes pride in his operation. Thanks Charles."
"Reported a problem with a timer for a light in my space three times, no resolution. Light just turns off after about 4 minutes and you are in the dark. Can't be safe!!"
"I highly recommend life storage on Alma School Road . They are the BEST. They did a great job facilitating a large home of furniture to their storage units and it all went very smoothly. Kelly and Richard were efficient and very professional and observed all COVID safety protocol. They made the most unpleasant move to a great experience."
"My family had a space here for years and was always treated with respect and welcomed with a smile. Super clean facilities, friendly staff, and Charles, in particular, always went above and beyond. When I had some extenuating family circumstances, time and again, Charles worked with me for the best possible solutions. I couldn't recommend a place more highly!"
"First rate facility. Clean, well lit and great access. The customer service from current manager Charles and previous manager Calla is excellent. They are professional, helpful and always willing to help you in any way possible. Highly recommend"
"Very impressive! Neat, clean, well managed and friendly staff. Temperature controlled for the Arizona summers. Indoor loading bay for trucks and trailers. Definitely recommend this location for short or long term storage."
"This is the best storage facility I've used. I had my "extra" items stored for 1 1/2 years and my son just moved here from the NW and also had his items stored. The day he was ready to moved we had made one trip - load a large trailer and came back for the last load (drive time 1 hour) to his new location. AND he left the storage unit key at his new home...this is where the amazing customer service started. Calla Winkler, store manager, said she could drill out his lock...turned out it was not an easy task. She spent 1 1/2 hours working...working...working with her drill. Never gave up, apologized to us that it was taking too long and was finally successful. She is positive, willing to help, pleasant to work with - the best. The facility is very clean, well managed, and temperature controlled. Thank you Life Storage for hiring the best Store Manager ever!!!"
