"The facility is immaculate, easy to access and well lit. It is always well stocked with hand trucks which allow for easy transport of personal items and have three elevator bays. The truck that was provided (free of charge) was large, clean and well maintained. Every company os merely a selection of its employees. The young man who assisted me was professional, pleasant and smartly dressed. He made sure I made the most appropriate choice of room size for my needs and that I was satisfied. Exceptional client service. This is by far the best storage facility in town!"

"The Milford CT branch of Uncle Bob's Storage is OFF THE CHARTS wonderful. The quality of the facility is beyond any storage company I've ever dealt with. It's like a fine hotel for my stuff. It's better than some apartments I've lived in! (lol.) It seems very secure and extremely clean. The staff were very nice and signing up took less time than I expected. The only not-perfect thing I noticed was that the hours of access are more limited than other places I've rented from, but overall the benefits far far outweigh this."

Being in California, were initially a bit worried to learn it had changed "ownership/management" and was now Uncle Bob's [Life Storage]. We couldn't be happier though. The staff (Jose & Julio especially) were fantastic and the facility is as great as it ever was!

"I recently had a problem of losing my car keys while at my storage location. Julio and Leo went above and beyond the 'call of duty' to make sure they could help me. Julio took his own personal time to help me locate my other set of keys. And, they contacted me within 2 days to let me know they found the lost set. This saved me $$$ and the frustrating time to get another set of specialized car keys. Throughout this process, they remained professional, courteous and looked for different options to solve what was my accidental problem. I would recommend this location and these gents to everyone! Thank you!"
