Rated 5.0 out of 5 stars Tina C. at Life Storage, Gainesville, Florida (#984)

"Highly recommend!  I'm out of state and needed a storage unit for my UF son.  A friend uses this storage facility and we were impressed with how clean and high-tech it is (the gate opens with an app and the building and unit are accessed with an app).  So we booked a unit and could do everything online.  I didn't have to have my son take an Uber to the facility to purchase a physical lock to place on the unit, it's all done electronically.  So easy and convenient, especially for out-of-state parents.  I also spoke to the lady there who was professional and friendly and answered all my questions.  The rates were also really good - the lowest rates I found among the places that were recommended to me.  Thank you Life Storage!"

Also reading such great reviews helped make our decision that much easier. 💯recommend this fe"

"I used this storage facility to store items for my daughter's dorm since we are from out of state. The staff there was super friendly and so accommodating! Kameron and Sarah personally went above and beyond to ensure that our items were delivered and stored safely.  The facility is spotless and the electronic access is extremely useful. I cannot say enough great things about the staff professionalism and courteousness, cleanliness of premise and most definitely plan on using this storage facility again! Highly recommend!!"

"I have known the owner since my days in college and knew that he had put a lot of effort into a high-end storage facility. I need to store some personal belongings while undergoing a house renovation for 5 months.. I was very pleased with the process and the unit was clean and nice little touches include the internet-based access into the storage facility and they will also provide you the key and lock for the storage center. The service personnel Kameron and Josh were very personable and attentive to my needs. I would highly recommend Life storage of Gainesville."

"I didn't realize how state-of-the-art, secure and clean a storage place can be! And actually, while I was there, I met the owner and he talked with me and showed me what they'd done, and why they'd done it that way. It's basically like Disney World compared to the county fair. They only chose and continue to choose doing it the right way. It's very secure and very humid-controlled all over the place."
