We at Life Storage want to maintain the best storage facilities in Jacksonville, and in every city where we do business.
Take a look at all the good things our customers say about this Life Storage, and all of our stores! It thrills us to give customers the best customer service possible, and to hear when they are pleased with how we have taken care of their storage needs.
"This is a storage unit that is climate control with various sizes and rooms to fit all needs. Ā Ā They have elevators and plenty of carts. Ā love this place"
"Just rented my first storage unit and the process was quick and easy! Sean explained everything throughly and made us confident in our decision. Thanks Sean!"
"Had the best experience at this location! The staff is extremely kind, helpful and understanding. I stored my belongings here for about a year before moving, and it was comforting to know that my things were safe and secure throughout that time period.
If youāre curious, the storage facility is primarily indoors, air conditioned and has a great selection of unit sizes. There are elevators available on either end of the facility, along with dollies, so it makes transporting your things easy. This facility is also very CLEAN, which is a huge bonus.
Canāt speak highly enough about the staff and location. Great people, great place!"
"Laurie who works at the front desk is extremely helpful. She went out of her way to help me move in and out of my storage as smoothly as possible. Great storage unit. Extremely helpful. Great prices. Definitely recommend!"
"First time renting a storage unit and my experience was great. Sherry was the customer service rep who helped me from the start (April). Super accommodating and willing to go the extra mile. I wi definitely recommend to friends and family in Jacksonville. Facility is clean. Never had any issues with the gate or code box near the door."
"Sherry was very kind and professional. They keep everything safe and protected, I felt comfortable leaving my belongings in their care, highly recommend!"
"I have been renting a storage unit since March. Ā I had a flood in my condo and needed to move my things into storage. Ā Once all the repairs were I was ready to move my things back home. Ā Because of all the delays and Covid shortages I was not able to move till September 7th. Ā I wanted to move during the weekend, but because it was a holiday weekend I was unable to schedule movers because of it being Labor Day weekend. Ā Because I could not get moved before the 5th of the month, I have to pay for a full month!!!
One would think that a company would be a bit flexible during times like the current hurdles of Covid....Not the case with Life Storage! Ā Greed is their nu.ber one priority. Ā Making money off me and the next renter for the month of September....double dipping $$$$$, shame on you!"
"Convenient location on the south side and easy access whenever we needed to check in on our things! Units are super clean and kept our things intact since the building is air conditioned."
"This place is absolutely amazing! The customer service is impeccable and the units are super affordable. I left to go out of town for a month and forgot to lock my unit properly. Staff on site noticed and called me immediately. I was unable to return since I already had left town, but they were gracious enough to add an additional lock to my unit, securing it properly. A small act of kindness will take you a long ways, and I truly appreciate them helping out a fellow customer when they didnāt have to. 5 stars."
"Letās start with the wonderful and friendly staff that works there. They will help you in any way they can. I rented another storage from there, and couldnāt get there to move the stuff. The staff took the time and moved it for me. Itās such a blessing to have people like them in your life. I would recommend anyone to rent from them."
"Iāve had a great experience at this location. Sherry is fantastic! She has helped me on multiple occasions, answering all my questions and helping me schedule the moving van. Sheās professional, friendly and goes above and beyond!"
"I called the office one day to ask some questions about vacating my storage unit. The woman I spoke with (whoever worked on 07/16) was incredibly kind and walked me through the process of vacating my unit. She explained to me how the process worked and was truly a pleasure to work with. Thank you so much!"
"We've had a storage unit here for about a year and it's been great. Never had an issue, super clean, and climate control is awesome. The customer service is great as well"
"I was considering getting a storage from this location but the workers are rude and act like they canāt communicate with me when they are a customer service Representative for a storage. They talked to a lady who was a regular customer but when I asked she ignored me and said she was on the phone but answer the other lady with me questions each time she asked them while on the phone. I walked out and called a Uber and when the Uber was 4 minutes to me the lady said they have space now. I declined and left with Uber and as of today I have storage space. Stop allowing the devil to get his way walk it out... Walk it like you talk it"
"I was hesitant because it just seemed too good to be true, but the deals are real and excellent! The people are so friendly. The units are very clean and large elevator. Excellent security. Don't hesitate with this one!"
"Iāve rented here for a year and have moved from larger to smaller units and now back to larger yet again. Iāve been very happy with the facility itself...safe, clean etc, but more importantly the employees. Sherri was extremely patient, helpful and went above and beyond. Moving is never easy and you never know what someone is going through. Her kindness matters and Iām grateful! Highly recommend storing here. Thanks Sherri!"
"I am currently renting Ā a storage unit here. Ā Made all the arrangements on line! Ā ....and this place is clean and they have flatbeds available to help transport your items from your vehicle to your unit. Would definitely recommend!"
"Sherry and Jordan were great! They were very professional, accommodating and helpful, which made moving less stressful. Iām very happy to have chosen Life Storage, thank you so much!"
"My entire experience was great, from Day 1 until move-out, and Sherry was very friendly and helpful as I moved out on a day when the office was closed."
"Sherry was extremely affable and helpful I had a bit of an emergency and she went above and beyond to help me I am very grateful. Respectfully Jonathan"
"Every experience with them has been professional and delightful.
The few times we have spoken on the phone, i can honestly say i was in a better mood AFTER they called me than i was beforehand.
Top notch, from start to finish."
"Jordan was amazing he helped through a tough situation due to covid-19, he was very concerning and understanding thanks for making my day better.cherry cherry"
"I had two units at Life Storage for several months. The units were well maintained and clean. The thing that made the experience a good one was the staff! Jordan and Shari were wonderful to deal with and always tried to give me helpful advice. Since, I was a āgreen hornā at the storage rental business. They both are very kind and gracious with there time. I would strongely recommend this storage facility to anyone.
Please take special care of these āspecialā people.
Thank you
Ray Edwards"
"I needed a storage facility last minute and these guys came through in the clutch. Jordan took care of me efficiently and there was barely any paperwork! Moving has been stressful for me in the past but this storage unit really took some pressure off of me! 10/10 would recommend! Thank you Jordan!!"
"The manager was really kind and helpful! Answered all our questions when we were moving in even though the office had technically closed. Also when we moved out, we were worried about being charged for the next month since we checked out on a weekend. The manager took care of everything and it wasnāt an issue."
"We've moved around alot so we have rented storage spaces in Hawaii and California and now in Florida. No question that our space here is by FAR the most brightly-lit and cleanest space we've ever seen- and the onsite staff is absolutely amazing in every possible way.
Sherry and Jordan have been consistently friendly and welcoming, nice and incredibly patient from the very first contact I made with them. It is so easy to talk with them and they are willing to help in any way possible to make things smooth for their customers, which is fantastic because we don't live in Jacksonville and I had a ton of phone calls with logistics and questions about getting set up here . . . . and then once we were up here for the move, more calls with questions about renting the moving truck they have onsite and also saving an extra 5 x 5 space on the fly on moving day in case we ran out of room in the 10 x 15 we had secured.
It is my parents' belongings that are in this beautiful clean bright secure climate-controlled storage space - nothing expensive but everything super sentimental and important to them - which makes it super important to me that everything would be protected and safe.
I spoke first with Eric Snyder in the Life Storage call center because it was after hours to reach the local site. Eric was incredibly kind and patient on the phone as well, answering questions and explaining all of the options and prices and locations for various spaces, the insurance, the move-in process.
The website is really nice - it shows sizes and prices along with the floor on which the spaces are located. Be aware that some spaces have a three-foot wide swinging door and others have an eight-foot rollup door - we needed the large rollup door for large furniture items and Eric helped me choose which one to reserve - he also found a space that was decently close to one of the elevators for when I need to take my parents there.
Excellent first impression for sure - and very easy to complete the reservation/rent process online after the phone call using the email links that he sent.
Good to know -
Safe- high fences around the building - brightly lit outside at night - high definition video surveillance and recording - rolling gate with a code to enter the property and then also a code to enter the building.
Brightly lit inside too - motion sensing lights turn on when you walk down the hallways and also overhead in the actual unit as well.
The space is super clean- and when you open it up, there is a welcome bag inside that includes a brand-new disc lock and keys in case you don't have your own. If you DO have your own lock, you can return the new one to the office for a credit. Very convenient to have a new one waiting right there in the space though- like most or all storage spaces, it's required to lock the space before you leave it.
If you have homeowner or renter insurance, it might additionally cover the storage locker as well -otherwise insurance coverage (required) can be arranged for a minimal amount per month with different levels of coverage available.
No contract or lease- if you vacate the space before the next payment is due, you are not charged for the next month.
They will work with you to change spaces if you need more or less space during the time you are there.
There is a large van-type truck to rent right there onsite- no having to pickup and return to UHaul or Penske. We ended up having pro movers handle everything for this load-in instead of doing some of it ourselves like we first thought we might- so we didn't need to rent the truck- but it's good to know it's there for the future.
Access is 6am to 10pm daily or you can pay an extra fee per month for 24 hour access.
Back to Sherry and Jordan- both of them are extremely alert and protective of the property and spaces- to the point that they do a walkthrough of the whole property every morning and every afternoon before leaving- checking that every space is solidly locked and secured and then contacting the owner of the space if there is any issue at all. They were fast to call me and to resolve an issue (our own error) with our lock and communicated what was happening the whole time. Especially because we live 325 miles south, this extra level of care and consideration and watchfulness was really unexpected and it really takes it to a higher level of feeling like my parents' belongings are safe there compared to most storage spaces.
A bonus is that it's an extremely convenient location for us- it's less than two miles from my parents' residence and less than two miles from the hotel in Jax Town Center where we stay when we are in Jacksonville- Ā which is also about two miles from the multiple apartment complexes in / around Town Center . . . so if anyone in these complexes is looking for storage spaces close to where you live, here is a stellar 100% positive recommendation from a super happy customer."
"Worked with Jordan, great communication and super efficient on getting back to me on a question. The space was clean. Will definitely rent a unit from this company again."
"Incredible Jenn is amazing customer service! Really appreciate YA'WL very much for the ease of signing in to my account and getting in the gate during my initial visit with online map to find my way to unit. Really clean and thoughtful mandatory masks inside building."
"Sherry was wonderful to work with during pandemic. Facility is top notch, clean and serviceable with carts and rollup doors that worked! Thank you Sherry for ALL you did to help my family out with an amazing storage experience!"
"Superb ease from cradle to grave with this move. Thank you JENN and team for courtesy, patience and thoughtful interaction. Fair price and clean! Really appreciate all you did to help navigate the two units for me. Thank you! T Bush"
"Service team member Jordan was exceptional. He was professional and courteous in all our interactions. He provided all the instructions I needed over the telephone for a "contact-less" tour and answered all my questions thoroughly and completely. Thank You!"
"I had a wonderful experience renting for six months, one of the larger storage units from Life Storage at the Deerwood location with exceptional service from Sherry and Jordan! A+ All the way!!!/Highly Recommend!!!"
"This is the most fantastic place to rent a storage unit. Its clean, well kept, COVID safe, and the staff is extremely helpful and pleasant. I highly recommend this facility for your storage needs."
"Sherry is wonderful and always available and accommodating to answer my questions and assist me with my storage needs!
Wonderful facility and staff who go above and beyond to help!"
"Jordan rocks! Very easy check in, note to anyone checking them out call the store directly for any questions and they can walk you through the online corona check in."
"Shari was incredible ā despite all the covid issues and challenges we all face, she helped my entire family with a difficult move. Her customer service was absolutely the best - she followed up, made sure i was informed and I canāt thank her enough!"
"Wow! Brand new facility with plenty of parking and loading space. Very clean and secure with cameras everywhere. Carts for loading readily available. But, most importantly, awesome, friendly staff who are happy to answer questions and point you in the right direction. Special tip of the hat to Sherri(sp?) for her easy and warm personality in getting me set up."
"Jordan and Sherry makes the difference. They are compassionate, professional and knowledgeable.
Thank you Sherry and Jordan for all you have done to try and keep us all safe during these COVID times. The facility is always clean as well as the property..
I highly recommend this facility as a must!!"
"Iāve rented from many storage facilities before, but my experience has never been as good as with Life Storage. Great service, clean facility, great security, easy access. They also provided the lowest quote in the area for a 10x5 storage space. Very pleased and will continue using them."
"Great newer facility. Needed a large space and found immediate availability at a good price and easily accessible. Clean, bright, and holding temperature control in our hot summer months. Staff is friendly and helpful."
"This was a great experience, place is super clean and cool. Elevators were clean and effective and efficient. Whole entire surrounding area clean too, super friendly and courteous staff too"
"Sheri was super professional and extremely helpful. It was such a positive experience that if I could leave 10 stars I would. I would recommend this location to anyone!"
"Easy to use and well delivered directions, very clean. Most important of all: COSTUMER SERVICE. I had problems with the delivery of materials by another company (nothing to do with Life Storage) and Sherri at Life Storage took care of it. She was very professional, very nice and really went above and beyond to help me. I will use this location again without hesitation"
"We had several changes to our plans and Sherry was extremely helpful and professional in accommodating our needs. The covid19 situation necessitated signing paperwork online which was easy and quick. Our unit was clean and the facility is very nice. We are glad we chose Life Storage!"
"OMG, Jordan is the best, So the funniest thing happen while at my storage unit. I had an accident at my storage unit I DROPPED MY KEYS IN THE ELEVATOR Like ohhh =/ =2 No right, but Jordan came right to my rescue. I went to the office and asked for his helped. The urgency he had on getting my keys = showed me that its really people out here that are very helpful. Thanks Jordan Youre Freaking Awesome =O<þ"
"I came to Life Storage because I saw the awesome reviews and service provided online...and i have to say that Jordan did not disappoint. I see why he has so many glowing reviews at this facility. Well done!"
"Jordan is truly spectacular. In a world where customer service no longer exists today, it was refreshing to see a young man w/ exceptional customer service. You have won over Alice long customer. Thank you life storage :)"
"Jordan and Sherri
Awesome customer service!! The facility is newer than most locations. Rental process was fast and Jordan explained everything I needed to know with a friendly and inviting demeanor. Great staff, you'll love them."
"The staff at this location is great! Jordan specifically was very helpful. He made everything smooth as this was our first time even getting a storage unit =L 10/10 for customer service"
"Jordan was the best! He explained everything in such a knowledgeable and comprehensible manner. He didn't pause or even hiccup when I asked him tough questions. If you guys are looking for a storage, this place... is clean, safe, and Jordan is great!"
"Great experience! Jordan was very helpful and his awesome customer service is refreshing. We highly recommend this storage facility to all our family, friends and associates!"
"Jordan was so helpful!! I came into Life Storage with a certain storage unit in mind and ending up changing my mind, looking at a million different units, and Jordan continued to be so patient and kind with us! I will definitely be coming back here in the future if need be."
"Very nice and clean. Gary is awesome. He was very helpful and answered all of my questions. I highly recommend these guys!!! Thanks for making this a great experience for me!!!"
"2 stars, because the place is clean and well kept. I just moved all my stuff out of the storage due to rude customer service. I had no problem with the previous company that owned this storage. The woman was sweet and helpful. Gary was no help at all. When auto payment failed due to their system change. He wasnt much help. He rather me figure it out on my own then to help. The next month the auto payment didnt work and they changed me a late fee. I told Gary I enrolled in auto payment to not worry about late payments. He told me I should have been aware and paid on time. Whats the purpose of stress free auto payment if I have to stress to see if its working. He refused to help and was very rude. I asked for corporate number and it just lead me back to him. After that I made a switch. I wouldnt use that storage as long as Gary is working there. I wouldnt suggest it either."
"We rented a 10X10 from here while we looked for a house in south JAX. We ended up finding a house further north and after 4 months cancelled our rental agreement. No hassles, no arguing, just "thank you for renting with us and if you need storage in the future, please consider us." Place is clean, professionally run and in a great location ... if you are around the Town Center area. Highly recommend."
"After speaking with Gary I know this is right Storage for me. He is excellent in his customer service and I will get my storages there thank you Gary!"
"Glad I stopped here, I was on my way to another storage place, Gary helped me and he showed me some units, because I was lost! I had no idea what I needed. He understood and explained everything to me! Thanks Gary for all your helo!"
"We appreciated all the help Gary gave us. We had checked out a few other places and found this newly converted Life Storage - Gary was really professional and courteous to my wife and I and made us feel like we were important as customers. Thanks Gary!"
"I had to delete my 5 star review after Extra Space just became Life Storage. Now that three switch has been made, Life Storage does not offer prorated prices if you move out early and they don't give you the option to have insurance. I called two weeks ago to let them know I'd be moving out early and i was told they'd prorate my rental price when i came in to pay. Fast forward to yesterday and i was told by the same woman that Life Storage does not prorate but after i move out of the unit she could submit for a refund but it was not guaranteed. If i was already in the unit before the companies changed over AND was told over the phone that I'd pay a prorated price, why should i have to pay for a full month and MAYBE get a refund after i move out? I advise anyone to find another storage facility if you're looking for flexibility, insurance options and honest staff."
"New ownership and management for the worse. I was scheduled on auto pay, but my info did not transfer. I was never informed so they locked my unit. I was not made aware of this until I came at 9:00pm. My gate access worked, so I unloaded my belonging and too then to my unit, only to find a padlock. I called customer service, was told I would get a call back that night, and now 24 hours later I still do not have a call back.
I went in to the office and the manager Cheryl explained the situation, even stating that it was not my fault. She graciously waived the late fee (which again, was not my fault), but had no empathy towards the situation at all. I asked her to refund me for the days I did not have access to my unit, but she refused stating that all I had to do was come to the office. Well Cheryl, you never contacted me to let me know my payment info never transferred. You have terrible office hours, so any one with a normal job cannot visit during those times. And then come to find out, the incorrect phone number transferred with my account! So I was never actually contacted about this issue and a lock put on my unit for no reason! Still no empathy or refund from Cheryl.
The hours of this facility arent 24 hours even. I was told when I signed up that there would be security guards and I have never seen one."
"Very pleased with the service,came in and left 10 mins later and was able to do the first month promotion so it was safe to the finances definitely recommend this place"
"Very clean and accessible facility. Good neighborhood and secure. Reasonable online rates for climate controlled units. Platform dollies provided free and large elevators. Clean bathrooms!! Staff very helpful and efficient. Building less than year old."
"Met with Stacey she gave me a walk through of the new facility and this place is awesome. Tons of space with 3 levels and versatile units. Stacey was very courteous and patient. I will be bringing my business to this location. Highly recommend!"
The entrance, aisles, and most drive-up accessible storage units are wide enough to accommodate large vehicles, up to and including 54' tractor trailers.
