"I had my credit card breached over a weekend visiting my daughter. I get an e-mail on a high holy Jewish holiday. I do not respond, Respond after holiday -one day late full 20% charge-extra $30.00. Woman on phone not very kind or receptive to anything but her faith . Wish I could leave it"
"Ken was extremely helpful in getting me my storage unit. My storage unit is clean and looks so safe, the temperature is pretty good too!! I would highly recommend thus facility to anybody!!"
"I am so glad I found this storage unit. The managers & staff are so friendly & helpful. It is beyond clean, safe, & temperature controlled! I highly recommend them if you need to store anything. They even have boat & RV spaces."
"The call center made it sound like it would be no problem for me to go see the storage in 5 minutes but when I got there they were closed I kept ringing on the their door bell nobody answered so I left they call me back asking me if I still wanted to see the unit since I made a reservation I wasted 30 minutes talking to the call center making reservations to go see it and nobody was there when I got there she called me back I told her what happened she said she was on lunch break until 2:30 why don’t they let the call center know they are in break so we won’t be wasting our time and go look somewhere else …. that’s not all they are the ones in the wrong yet when I asked her if they had anything else maybe a bigger storage that’s a good deal she gave me one that was 550$ when I specifically asked her for the best deal they got while their call center gave me a rate of 430$ for the same size of unit I asked her for very dishonest and very unprofessional nope not doing business there"
"The store manage Nora was very informative kind and helpful with all our questions and the place is well kept and a nice relaxing energy, hours are great and price is reasonable. Great first impressions"
"Terrible choice for storage. Our 37' RV was STOLEN from behind their "secure" gates. This occurred only a few weeks after our catalytic converter was STOLEN and we had to have it replaced. Facility staff and management are no help in the investigation. DO NOT STORE ANYTHING HERE THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO KEEP!"
"We are beyond grateful for Ken at the Life Storage( #528) in Torrance. We had a unique situation with our Uncle that had passed away and had a storage unit at this location. Ken was a tremendous help with getting our information switched over and assisting us through the process of cleaning the storage unit out. Thank you Ken for giving us a great experience during a difficult time."
"Thanks to FRANSISCO over at the Life Storage - Westminster
He did a wonderful job showing me all my options sizes and prices!!! Thanks Fransisco your the best."
"Amazing service and very helpful. Ken the manager went above and beyond to help me with my storage reservation. Very clean and safe would highly recommend!"
"Avoid this place at all cost! It's such a headache dealing with them, and prices go up without warning on a regular basis.
RATS ATE THROUGH EVERYTHING IN MY UNIT & ITS SUCH A HASSLE DEALING WITH INSURANCE. I still haven't gotten an answer for my claim! There was no food or perishables, yet there were rat poop and urine all over as well as holes in all out things.
Today I came and they changed my lock! Everything on paid for and they auto take payment out, and I tried calling customer service and no answer even on their 24-hour line! This is ridiculous! Locked out of my own storage and no answer from anyone and proof they have been charging my account!"
"Brand new 30ft RV Stolen in early Feb 2022. In December 2021, thieves stole the batteries from our rv. This is supposed to be a locked facility where they charge us $426/mo with the expectation that there is some security. Life storage did not offer to repay the cost of the replacement battery.
Apparently, thieves conducted a smash and grab of RVs from the facility in Feb 2022 and I assume mine was stolen at that time and I was never notified. It wasn't until over 30 Day later when we received a parking ticket in the mail for our rv. It was stolen from Life storage for 5 weeks ago and they tell me they had NO idea?!? Really? It was brand new, 30ft long and occupied the corner space that was hugely
We located our RV in a Los Angeles homeless encampment destroyed with people paying gangs rent money to live and party there. In addition to this, we received notification from Life Storage they would be raising our monthly dues.. this was during the time our rv was stolen.
So if you are looking for a facility to pay a mortgage prices that has absolutely no security and would rather keep quiet and support thieves, then this is the place for you!"
"My $30k camping trailer was just stolen from here. I was paying $300 per month for the storage. Apparently a truck rammed the gate, came in and stole two RVs. It was all caught on footage including the license plates of the vehicles involved in the theft. But Life Storage didn't notify me or the police until more than three days later. The gate is still broken and left in the open position. If you have vehicles stored here or a storage unit, you would be wise to find another place ASAP."
"Friendly, reliable, secure, and always chill. Lots of parking, all ground floor spaces, all easily accessible, climate-controlled section, and wheelchair accessible throughout the entire premises, including the front office. The staff is always nice, and they have 24/7 customer service over the phone with a live representative."
"Recently, the office is closed much on the weekends despite the posted online hours starting they are open.
This weekend (feb 12-13 2021) the office was closed Saturday after 1230 and all day Sunday.
This means one cannot obtain a cart to assist in hauling items to/from one's unit. A major inconvenience. (They're padlocked, keys are in office). This is ridiculous.
Despite scrimping on services, we still pay full price."
"A good place if you want tons of security.
They have carts for your use to move in and out. Except the day you decide to move out and expecting to use a cart only to find out they are locked up and the office is closed ON A SATURDAY at 1 pm. No key for the cart. WTF"
"Moved in today to a 10x12 unit, and Trey who was working the property made the whole process incredibly easy and enjoyable. Turned something that usually sucks into a decent experience. Knowledgeable, efficient, and good spirited. Ask for him if you can."
"I want to thank Life Storage for always keeping my units clean and safe. The professionalism and politeness of the staff on site is refreshing. In particular, Ken Evans and Trey Johnson. Thank you gentlemen for your customer first attitude when helping me with my deliveries and making sure my unit gets open for FedEx and UPS. You both help me facilitate my business needs as if they are your own. I have a lot to be thankful for this time of year and me and my company are thankful for Ken and Trey keeping our inventory of pharmaceutical samples safe and sound."
"I have had a unit with Life Storage for over a year now and it has been a very pleasant experience. Recently, I lost the key to my lock and Ken at Life Storage was able to help me get it removed to access my storage items. He was very helpful and the process was easy. 10/10 would recommend!"
"Such great customer service! I greatly appreciate all of the assistance I received from Ken. I've been a long time customer and it's been a great experience. I highly recommend this location"
"They take such advantage of you once you have been there. My rates went from just over 100.00 when I first rented to now 270.00. Sad and ridiculous that they charge that much. Find somewhere else."
"Been with Life Storage when it first opened under a different company. It is clean, well lit, and easy to access. I have just rented a BIGGER space while I reorganize my place and life. Thank goodness, Roger (Manager) was there to help. The process couldn't have been simpler. Now all I have to do is reorganize my stuff! LOL"
"Life Storage in Elk Grove California is where i rented a unit. My storage was RAVAGED BY RATS! I chose this site because it looked clean and advertised climate control so that items are not baking in the heat.
My unit was # 399 10x30 above the unit are residence that lived there. Alot of my items where ruined and damaged. The rats chewed the wiring to a 2,000 dollar GE 6 burner stove that was brand new, I also had other items and clothing, comforter sets, paintings and queen mattress that were distroyed. I filed a claim with life storage ins. company is Xercor who only pays $500 dollars and still took out $100 dollar for a deductible. I only got a total of $400 dollars. My comforters for my queen beds cost 275-300. i ONLY CHOOSE 1 STAR BECAUSE i CANT POST REVIEW WITHOUT RATING. It rates a ZERO DONT USE"
"I stored all of my belongings at life storage during a remodel. The facility was clean, well lit, and seemed safe and well watched over. I was expecting to "get got" with additional "gotcha" charges upon moving out but i am happy to report that was not the case.
The staff was a differentiator. They made the move in and move out process straightforward. I worked with Stephanie and she walked me through the entire process and was more than accommodating."
"I've been to Public Storage and Extra Space. Both places CANNOT COMPARE to the level of professionalism, cleanliness and customer care given by Life Storage. The staff, Ken and Stephanie, is awesome! The manager Traymore is Awsome! and actually cares about the customers. I strongly recommend Life Storage"
"Life storage has been super accommodating and very clean. I recently lost my key and they even did a free lock cut for me. This place is A+ in my book and I've been super impressed with their level of service over the past two months"
"I had a great experience with Ken today signing up for a storage unit. The process was easy and Ken was very friendly and helpful. Overall great experience."
"I've been with life storage now going on 3 years they are always friendly and helpful. Clean and safe is to describe the site it's self! I'd recommend Life storage on 190th to all my friends."
"The staff at Life storage was so helpful getting me set up with the perfect size unit at an excellent price. Everything is well kept and very clean. The units also feel very secure. There is password protection and a lot of security cameras. Highly recommend!"
"I've been a customer here for years!! The facility is clean safe and always secured!! The customer service is great, I want to thank Estefany for helping me with replacing my lock on my unit. She was very professional and helpful!! Thank you Anna for helping me find my ID!! You two ladies are the best!! Thank Life Storage for your service!!!"
"What can I say about Life storage on 190th and hard nice friendly workers they are always helping you making sure you're satisfied before you walk out. Nice and clean office and storages."
"Absolutely amazing service. Ken was very helpful and guided me through the process perfectly. Highly recommend renting your storage space here.
Great experience."
"This place is Great. My husband & I have to share our experience Incase you're looking for a place to store your items. Very clean place, immediately met with wonderful people to help you. Anna the manager is so helpful & friendly. She really goes the extra steps to make sure you get the write storage for your items. Ken is always full of smiles & greets you with a warm welcome. He also is so helpful & kind. We like how cool it is inside the facility. Of course don't want to forget the many cameras & gate make it pretty secure. Highly recommend."

"After our voyage of 3 long days from TX to California we arrived at Life Storage and were greeted by Ken. He was honestly a breath of fresh air, he had patience with us and answered any questions we had. The place seems very secure. I'm so glad I found this place"
"Ken and the Life Storage Team were incredible! We had a unique scenario and Ken was thorough and helpful the entire time! Can't say enough about their over the top customer service... went the extra mile for us. Would highly recommend!"
"I recently came here to rent a unit due to an unplanned move. Nancy was professional, patient, and extremely helpful. The facility is very clean and safe. The prices are great too."
"The GM Ken & his staff member Natalie are truly professional, caring & considerate in their interactions; be it on the telephone or in person. As good of an experience as I've ever had at a storage facility. I highly recommend Life Storage & this location on 190th. St. in particular!"
"Ken called me mid morning that upon completing his "rounds", he noticed my unit Q030 had the lock missing. Having met Ken previously, and enjoying some nice conversation, he remembered me personally and notified me of this dilemma in a timely manner. I rushed down to the storage unit and luckily found the contents untouched! The cut lock was sitting inside the unit, but nothing was disturbed..quite lucky, huh? Subsequently, Nancy met me at my unit to verify that all was well and a new "round" lock was placed on the slide. I have purchased another round lock and will install it with the other as an additional precaution. Kudos, to your outstanding employees, Ken and Nancy, on a job well done..thanks, Ken Friedlander."
"Ken was a pleasure to work with. He walked me through the facility and shared tips to make moving my things in easier. The facility was clean, well lit, and secure."
"Ken Evans at Life Storage was amazing! We had lots for questions, he took our many calls and found us the perfect storage unit, the unit is clean and well maintained, Ken was very responsive, polite, friendly and easy to talk to. Thank you for making our storage needs a pleasant experience Ken! B Dupree"
"I've rented from numerous storage unit locations and this is a nice facility. Ken at the front desk is extremely friendly and helpful. The only complaint I have is.....they lock up the carts!! The only way to use a cart is when the office is open! Horrible customer service!!! They need a better option."
"Ken Evans, the general manager, was amazing! From the initial phone conversation to reserving my storage unit, Ken was very responsive, polite, friendly and easy to talk with. Thank you for making this a pleasant experience, Ken!"
"This is a great storage facility. It is well maintained, clean and secure. The staff is very helpful, particularly Ken Evans. There are a wide variety of spaces available. If you need temporary or long-term storage, you can't go wrong with choosing this Life Storage facility in Torrance. And tell Ken, "Rick sent me!"."
"It was a nice experience! Affordable prices. And great stuff! I don't have the card of the person who helped me but I believe his name was Devon. He was very nice!
My only complaint - you have to enter code to open the door (not the main gate, I mean the door to get to the building), then enter code again to get the elevator. When you move you have to go in and out fast but entering all those codes and waiting for doors to open and elevator to arrive slowed us down significantly!"
"Morning. I rented a great space and actually changed unit size before I signed up. Eric was fantastic with his patience and explanation of the process. He made the experience very enjoyable. Great employee! Thx Ken F."
"I am almost a year here and must say I pay a little bit more and know my RV is safe.
The good thing is they clean out people what makes trouble to other people or keep doing what they not should do.
My tips for everyone especially new people:
Do just your own stuff following all rules
Don't store ever food in any storage.
Come and go..
Storage space is a great way to put your stuff, but not you.
Hold the time open and closing so you are not locking yourself in.
RV have 24 h access, but that doesn't mean party with a grill.
It's called being quick in and out..
You don't leave food in your RV....
Clean up after yourself just invisible yourself =
And the Staff is very helpful for any question."
"Clean facility. Customer service prompt and thorough, Friendly staff - excellent hours, allowed me to access facility after hours to get my moving done 10/10 would recommend"
"You guys, Anna sold me on account of her OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER service and Ken Evans brought it all full circle for me. He literally showed me two storage units and assisted me in making the best decision even though I was unsure of what I needed! The place is clean but DO NOT get caught here after office hours and have to use the loo... you will be out of gas but the diner up the street, if you can make it, will serve just fine hahahah! They have flat bed dollies that you can use with a key on loan from them and if you need packing materials, locks, mattress covers etc, they have them at decent prices as well. Overall, well priced with perks & an elevator... it's really about customer service and they offer a military discount!! Thanks Ms. Anna & Ken for all your help-- give them a raise in the New Year!!"
"My mom has been a customer here since this location was Magellan Storage, so many many years now. The front office has always been kind and courteous, from helping to cut the lock when we lost the key, to even holding on to a cell phone that we accidentally left there. Great storage facility, very clean. We will keep using them for years to come."
"There is always a friendly, helpful staff available to answer any questions. Our unit was clean, safe and reliable. They always have carts available to help move items, and access hours were very convenient. I highly recommend Life Storage for any storage needs!"
"If you need to find a storage space last minute come to Life storage! It was the only place that had the right size storage for my need and more! Trey was very helpful and made the whole process fast and easy! He made sure the space was clean and ready to move in! I would definitely recommend Life storage to my friends and family! :)"
"Ken was so great in helping me find all that I needed. He was very friendly and welcoming and the facilities were very clean. I would recommend this place to anyone in the market for a storage."
"Let's face it, anytime you have to deal with all the stuff in your life it's not going to be fun. But I have to say assistant manager Ken at this Life Storage facility made a super stressful and unpleasant task easy, efficient, and just about as excellent as I think any storage experience could be.
This facility is kind of a triangle shape. Be sure to find out not only the square footage of the space you might be interested in but how it is laid out. You might be surprised to find that it is not a normal rectangle shape so be sure to ask before you commit. They do have lots of options for pricing online but it does not give this particular information. I highly recommend going to the facility.
I came out twice before I actually moved in. Both times I interacted with Ken. To say he was a little slice of sunshine, positive attitude, full of information, extremely helpful about what to tell my movers, extremely knowledgeable about the facility and pretty much everything having to do with storage, was an understatement! Gosh, Ken just made the whole thing so easy and nice. He is a treasure.
I ended up with a pretty small unit, but I was not storing an entire apartment worth of materials. I did notice there are many different sizes of units and they all seem very tidy and the facility is kept clean overall. They could put a little more emphasis into keeping the doors of the storage units dust free but I suppose things in storage just tend to get dirty.
Another thing I liked about this facility is that there are cameras everywhere! The gate is easy enough to get into with your special code they give you, but everyone is always on camera so in case there ever is a theft it'll be recorded for sure.
Make sure you have your renters insurance policy with you that clearly states that it covers liability as well as loss of property. That will save you having to get the add-on insurance. Also, I was fortunate in that I had received a special offer to reimburse me up to $25 for my lock, so I took advantage of that and got an Amazon gift card in exchange. Not a bad deal for security that you already need!
You do have to give them 30 days notice before you move out which seems a little excessive but I suppose it's the same as what you'll give your landlord so not that big of a deal. They have a pretty good website as well for things like automatic payment which is highly encouraged because you don't want to be late and owe a bunch of fees.
It was super easy for my movers to pull in here with their great big tractor trailer.
TL/dr: Storage is never fun but fab asst manager here, Ken, makes the place 5 stars!"
"Life Storage is a great place to have for all your valuable items. The staff is friendly and on point. If you need help ask for Jesus. There open 5AM-11PM Monday-Sunday. Staff at the front desk are available to assist you from 9AM-6PM...You can also rent a dolly/cart at the front desk."
"Love this storage. Been here for about 6 years and really have nothing to complain about. Staff is ultra friendly and genuinely helpful, specially Ken Evans the associate manager."
"I have used several competing storage facilities in the past, and this Life Storage facility trumps them all. Ken, Ana, Eric and the rest of the staff always provide posivite friendly service. The facility is always clean and accommodating. I would not hesitate to recommend this life Storage facility to anyone."
"I have used several other competing storage facilities in the past, and this particular Life Storage location trumps them all. Ken, Ana, Eric and the rest of the staff always provide outstanding positive friendly service. The facilities are always clean and accommodating. I would highly recommend this location to anyone."
"It's a nice storage place but seems like you'll seen one these days & you've pretty much seen them all... They're all over priced in my opinion but the security seems justs above average."
"Wonderful experience here- although our stay was brief we found that the facilities were clean, management is superb, their gates and monitoring systems make you feel secure and the actual clientele are of a caliber that maintains that overall sense of safety. I definitely recommend this place - certainly above the local competition."
"Great and consistent customer service since day one, employees are warm and wonderful, the area is very clean and organize and so are the storage units"
"I've been using this storage place for several years now. It's located on 190th & prairie, across the street from Columbia Park.
It has parking in front, and behind it's secured gate that's accessed with your security pin. This place was originally Magellan, then uncle bobs, now Life storage. We used to get free drinks, and snacks every time we came but now they don't offer it. I give this place four stars because of safety. It's pretty clean, and the staff is friendly. They have security cameras everywhere and they have a storage area temperature controlled to protect your stuff. So if you want to feel safe and your stuff safe this is the spot.
The only downside to this is the price. It is more pricey compared to the other storage companies nearby. The weirdest thing I saw today they have rat traps all over the facility when I came in and moths!? I hate to give it less stars cause of the security. But there you have it."
"This place is FANTASTIC!!! It sets the bar for all other companies to try to reach. The security is amazing, facility is super clean, and they have everything available to make your move as easy as possible from start to finish. Great pricing on units and the access hours are perfect. Also, have to mention for the ladies especially- they have the nicest, cleanest restrooms of all time!!!
This entire staff is one of the most professional and attentive I've ever encountered in years of renting. Special thanks to Ana, who was so friendly, helpful and informative. She went above and beyond her call of duty to ensure all of my needs and questions were taking care. KEE UP THE GREAT WORK guys and If you are looking to rent a unit look no further you found the place!!"
"I've never had a storage unit all to myself before so this was a great first experience I had with Life Storage.
I was helped out via phone at first when I called to inquire about availability and pricing. The nice lady on the phone walked me through every single detail and put a reservation hold under my name so that if I wanted to commit, I could breeze through the registration process, which was true!
Then when I went onsite, I was helped by Anna who was very friendly and sweet. I really appreciated that they had life size examples to reference right inside the office/showroom. When I walked in thinking I wanted to get a 6x10 unit because it was on super sale, Anna actually talked me down because it was a weird shape. Then she showed me in person and I knew that she definitely had my best interest in mind.
I ended up going for the 10x5 unit and the price couldn't be beat with any other place in the area! On top of that, Anna put in as close to the elevator as possible so I can have a convenient loading process.
My biggest gripe that took one star away is that it's kind of inconvenient that the dolleys are locked up. So when you need one, you need to get it from the office. And if you're outside office hours (which is most likely when I'd be making a drop), you're kinda outta luck. So I wish that they could maybe find a better solution. I totally understand why they have this in place, but maybe there's a better way.
Other than that, it freaks me out just a bit to see so many mouse traps around the space because I really really really really really don't want to see any rats, I just might flip and never come back lol. But again, they have a lot of these preventative measures in place, like don't store any food in the units so we don't have a problem!
I appreciate all of their services and amenities and I would definitely recommend Life Storage!"
"Just got my first storage unit here, and the people who helped me were very nice, professional, and made the process as painless as possible.
They are clearly working hard to keep the place clean and reduce pests, which I'm sure is not easy in a storage facility where you don't have any control over what people store in their units.
Overall, I'm very happy with my experience here so far."
"The store manager Ana has always been helpful and the other staff as well. Units are clean and they have very easy access points and security seems good as well. The units we have had have been great so far."
"Best storage place EVER! Ken always greets us with a smile and is the warmest person and takes the time to listen to you and genuinely cares about their customers. The units are clean and really secure. They also over climate controlled units! So if you're looking for storage do yourself a favor and come here!! Be sure to ask for Ken."
"Fantastic storage utility. I've been storing here a feeble months, the facility's is so secure, clean, and the staff isn't amazing!!!! Ken and Stephanie are so wonderful and helpful"
"Great place , great energy! Anna is very funny and makes you feel like just a friend stopping by to chat n hang out, highly recommend! And the gentleman who was working with her made sure every customer in that lobby had a cup of ice cold reverse osmosis water before he clocked out to go home"
"Ken, Estefany, and Ana have been such an incredible help during my time using LifeStorage as my preferred storage unit company. Spectacular service and the team welcomes you every time you walk in. I love that I receive a call from the team when I have smaller packages that have been mailed to the facility, which is a great help. Such a personable, professional and caring team. Thank you LifeStorage, for hiring such all-star team members like Ken, Estefany, and Ana!"

"I wanted to recognize "Stephanie" from your Torrance 190th location. She was always cheerful and very professional and happy to help me with anything during my 7 month rental. Please make sure she is acknowledged for her hard work and professionalism.
Thanks,
Tami"
"Great receptionists, secure storage, reasonable prices. Even if you manage to find something slightly cheaper, it won't compare to the sheer magnificence of this location."
"We have stored here for over 2 years and are extremely pleased with how clean and well kept this facility is. Security is great here as well. Ana is super friendly and helpful, always going above and beyond to make sure our needs are met. Stephanie and Ken have also helped us many times and provide excellent customer service. I would highly recommend this storage facility.
Thanks!!!"
"Great place. Friendly service. Super helpful and nice. Been here for years. Location very convenient. Just off the fwy met easy for anyone who libes in the southbay"
"The Manager Ana Alonso is a awesome and Steph Guevara is so nice ×10. This is the perfect place if you need a storage space. If i could give more stars i would."
"This is an excellent storage facility. It is safe, clean and well maintained. Ken and Anna are exceptionally nice people who have gone out of their way on a number of occasions to assist us. We have used other storage facilities in the area but none come close to this one. Having courteous employees really does make a difference! Thanks again to Ken and Anna for all of their help and hard work."
"Staff was exceptional , Ana also made the process incredibly easy.Everything exceeded my expectations. I have told several people how great this place is ."
"I have been storing here for such a long time I love the service I am typically a really picky customer when it comes to customer service, but here you find the very BEST service these people go out of their way to make sure that your experience is the one of the best. I have seen it with every customer that comes in by the minute they walk into that door to the minute that they walk out everytime with respect and a friendly smile. (which now a day is so hard to find). All 3 have such patient and are always willing to help with a smile no matter the situation. I believe that all of the facilities own by LIfe Storage have the greatest customer service, but the service in this particular facility is with no doubt the BEST they really care about the customers. Ana, Estefany, and Ken wear the Life Storage Logo with so much pride and they love what they do."
"This storage facility is the best in the South Bay! The staff is always helpful any problems I have I just contact Anna & Steph and they resolve all my problem! Area of storage is always maintained clean. I highly recommend =M<ü"
"Great customer service! Had to swap units today and they were very helpful. Especially since our insurance company was not willing to send documents. Ana and her team are helpful and look after their customers."
"Oh Rats!
No really, Oh Rats!...They have a little Rat or Rodent problem here it appears...Maybe not so little?
Dozens of Rat Traps all over the facility past few months...Rat Droppings outside the storage lockers...see pics.
Where are the Rats coming from that enter the building?
Hate to be a Rat and Rat these nice people out here....but No one likes Rats or Rodents! But how do you get them out once they are in? Isn't it like the in-laws moving in with you?
Maybe stay away until they clean up the Rat problem?
Otherwise, this facility is in a good location with easy parking, well lit, nice carts, good hours, a supply store, and customer restroom--maybe that's what the Rats like about it?"
"Life storage on 190th in Torrance is the best storage I've ever rented no more waiting for your storage to open in the morning or not being able to make it to storage after work there is access to their units from 6am til 10pm
7 days a week as if that isn't enough I got a bigger unit for less money and they don't have an 8th floor where the elevator breaks often.LoL Thanks Life Storage for making my LIFE so much easier"

"These folks have been great! During the storms this January, 2019, our stuff has remained dry, and the facilities are clean and available at the advertised hours. I would recommend."
"Thank you Life Storage for keeping my families belongings safe! This has been the best storage facility I've ever used. On several occasions the associate manager Ken has gone above and beyond to meet my storage needs, THANK YOU! 5 stars!!! Use this facility, highly recommended!"
"This location was absolutely perfect for us. The great security was great and the climate controlled building was a definitely a plus! We wish you had such great facilities and staff everywhere."
"I am amazed at how nice and knowledgeable your associate was. I felt she was very helpful and showed me several storage units. I choose a unit inside with conditioning. The unit is very clean. I love the fact that you have dollies to use to transfer items in and out of the units, this is so helpful. I love the hours and that you are open on weekends. Thank you very much! Very Satisfied Victoria R."
"When I call the representative is courteous and inquires on purpose of call then does not keep me on hold - rather offers to call me back and doeso in a reasonable amount of time with full information for the purpose of my call.
My storage space is positioned far from entrance point."
"The manager, Ken, is a great asset to this company. As a resort manager, I know what it takes to maintain business while keeping every customer satisfied. Ken does it effortlessly and and he's friendly. If I rent a storage again, it will be life storage at the same location."
"Overall I have been pleased with all contacts I have had with your staff at the Torrance location. They are a pleasure to work with and always have a greeting and a smile whenever I stop by. They are an exemplification of customer service."
"I like the name "LifeStorage" way better than "Uncle Bob's Storage", but other than that, I am very satisfied with the personnel and the facilities. I'm a little sad that the price went up, but I totally understand - supply & demand."
"Security is better than I expected.
I was loading my vehicle and lost track of time not realizing it was after 10pm.
The next day I received a phone call from the office to confirm it was me trying to access my unit at 10:04pm
Nice to know they are on top of it."
"When I had problem leaving the facility, the emergency number was very helpful and prompt. I am extremely glad that I was 'storing' with Uncle Bob's [Life Storage]."
"I had family move my things in storage for I lived out of town and when I came to collect my things (3 years later). Your manager on duty was sweet and very helpful and made my transition easy.
I would recommend Uncle Bob's [Life Storage] to anyone how needs a self storage facility!
Thank you Uncle Bobs [Life Storage]."
"Everyone who served us did so promptly and with great respect. The facility was very clean. If we ever need a storage unit again, we're coming back to Uncle Bob"
"So far it's been fine. The changeover to new ownership as far as my automated bill payment, etc. was pretty easy, so thanks for that. I hope the monthly rent doesn't go up anytime soon. I always felt that the mandatory 10% increase every year was a little uncalled for given that I live in the neighborhood and my taxes, utilities and general cost of living hasn't increased nearly that amount, yet my storage facility felt the need to apply one every year. Keep up the good work!"
"Everything I experienced at the facility was top notch. My experience with your associate "Anna" was outstanding! She was very knowledgeable and understood my needs. She answered all my questions and concerns. Anna was very professional. Your corporation could use more associates like her. "
"I stored my RV on your property and always felt safe and secure.
I only left as the price continued to go up and had begun to exceed the payment on the RV."
