I couldn't help to notice how organized and clean the place was and they have an amazing security camera system the whole place is covered! First time ever feeling comfortable with my belongings, thank you!

"I had the pleasure of working with Nancy and she was absolutely amazing. She was very thorough in the storage unit rental process and answered all of my questions. I feel confident about storing my belongings at Life Storage."
"Tamiko is very helpful and very professional. Units are clean and dry. Our belongings were in perfect condition after being stored 8 months through a humid Florida summer."
"Aurelia was an absolute delight when she was helping me set up storage for my vehicle. With bird brain and all, she kept a cheery attitude and gave me a few good chuckles. Definitely plan on telling everyone how great this place is!"
"DO NOT USE THIS STORAGE COMPANY! I didn't receive an invoice for my monthly charges and I was charged $120 late fee after 5 days. I told management i didnt receive an invoice and was told "we dont send invoices". I was told i needed to sign up for auto payment. I told them they already have my payment information, I was told "we dont keep that". So the day after my late fee kicked in i got a phone call from their office asking for payment which led to this discussion. It was truly a deceptive practice from a company that is not transparent and not focused on customer service. Please find another option."
"I came in not knowing what size storage unit I should get, the manager on duty was Aurelia and she was amazing she took me on a golf cart ride and showed me the storage units that she thought might work. If anybody’s looking for a clean safe friendly storage company please check them out you won’t be disappointed."
"Nancy did an amazing job of getting me checked in and showing me the property. She also assisted me in selecting a unit.
Very organized and helpful.
Thanks Nancy!"
"Went with my friend. I am so impressed with the customer service. Aurelia Wager the Associate Store Manager was the most generous lady with her time. She helped my friend get the correct storage unit. She answered all concerns. Very impressed."
"I have been a customer for over 6 yrs, you folks have been outstanding in every aspect of renting storage and swaping out spaces along with packing boxes
Thank you"
"i highly recommend this location especially if you are in need of a storage unit.. this storage facility employees are amazing!! due to financial reasons myself and my boyfriend ended up losing our unit , it went up for auction, well we had a few very personal belongings that myself and boyfriend we're devastated to know we were losing we reached out to life storages employees and told them what we were looking for and that is the only things we were wanting . well it got auction off they informed the people that got it from them and they got the few belongings we were devastated to know we were going to lose . and for that alone I give this storage facility a five stars.. plus on top of it the facility is and was always cleaned sprinkling clean at that floors were always shining in the controlled temp units area"
"Very friendly people very nice very helping very understanding probably one of the most understanding employees in this year they are literally there to help and assist not to just do their jobs"
"STOP!! THIS IS THE ONE TRUST ME!!
After having a horrible experience at public storage on Jacaranda in venice I decided to try out life storage let me start off by saying this place was heaven sent! the 2 ladies that run the place are amazing! Aurelia especially has been such a blessing to work with, handles the business professionally and with ease both lady's are very kind and outgoing always answer any questions I have, its a stress free environment they keep the place lively its always clean they constantly make rounds around the property and pick up any trash that some people leave behind, they will always say hi and ask if theirs any questions I may have. This past month Aurelia has helped me tremendously I rent a few units needed for My business and this place is one of the best very convenient, it's spacious the gate code you get is not complicated the one I had at public storage was about 11 digits and was a hassle because you had to type it in everytime you went up and down the elevator.. life storage is much more convenient! there is always carts available, the climate controlled units are nice and cool which is rare to find, most storage places say they are climate controlled but are always humid.. life storage actually have their temperature set as it should, my belongings stay fresh odor free my favorite part is how they constantly make rounds around the property I've never seen a storage place be so dedicated in providing good service.. I keep allot of valuables their and it gives me a peace of mind knowing they are in good hands. Another good thing is if you happen to be running late passed closing time they don't lock you in and don't shut down the elevator you are still able to finish loading and unloading. The Public storage on the other hand shuts down the elevators and gate at 9pm sharp I've had my belongings locked in the elevator at public storage and then I couldn't leave because the gate locked I had to find an emergency number for them to open the gate it took me 35min to reach sombody. Long story short public storage is a nightmare ..
life storage with the amazing management at this location has truly been a blessing I never thought I'd leave a review like this but it's well deserved very impressed and happy! Thank you!"
"INDUSTRIAL SIZE SCAM!!!!! BEWARE !!!!! When you sign agreement change clause for price increase! otherwise your rate will be doubled after couple months. When you call them they ll be laughing at you because that s the way they doing businesses on regular basis."
"Rented a storage unit at 12560 Tamiami Trail S. in North Port, FL. Space is perfect for our needs, and the assistance we received from Aurelia Wager was outstanding."
"The lady in the office was a terrific help to us when we had issues locking and unlocking mom's unit. We called and within 2 minutes she was to our unit. So kind, friendly and helpful. The unit itself was clean and lit well. I would recommend"
"Life storage’s agent Nancy provided awesome service as usual. But was a “lifesaver “ yesterday as she found my iPhone , safely retained it and contacted my emergency contact. Now I am a super happy customer."
"The staff at life storage, Nancy, Aurelia and Rocky were all very helpful in guiding us through the process in obtaining storage units on the property."
"I had a fantastic experience at the Life Storage facility in North Port, FL (#509) Aurelia made everything so easy, and took all of the stress out of me during my moving experience. She was kind, considerate, and so helpful in handling exactly what I needed. I would highly recommend this facility and Aurelia for your storage needs. A true A+."
"We were greeted by the most friendly employee that we've dealt with in months. I wish I had her name so I could give her a big shout out - She was awesome! Their units are very clean and well maintained. The cost is a bit pricey but you know how supply and demand works. The number of northerners moving here now is staggering and they have to store their items as they cause bidding wars on the home sales here. But I digress, highly recommend that you store your items here.......if you can get lucky enough to find an empty unit. Welcome to Florida.....🦩🌴🦩"
"Arelia is the kindest,sweetest woman. Always has a smile on her face when I see her. She along with Rock....what great peo0le! They both have given me great assistance for what ever issued
I needed help with....THE BEST!!!"
"Well I Accidentally signed up for the wrong location and I got to the correct one that I needed to be at, This is my first time ever using a storage unit and Nancy was so very kind and helpful she found me the perfect storage unit and explained everything that I needed to know about it. Thank you so much!! If I could give you more than 5 stars girl I would!!!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐"
"Nancy was very pleasant to speak with along with being helpful. She was knowledgeable about the sizes and prices, along with assuring you get the right size storage needed. I highly recommend!"
"The only thing better than the clean well maintained safe facility is the customer service!!!
Extremely happy we chose to store our precious things here!"
"Very helpful, friendly and professional staff. Been with them for 2 years and the facility is always kept very clean. Just got my second unit and prices are more than reasonable. This is the best storage facility in North Port hands down, I would recommend them to anyone."
"After checking around the area, I was pleased to find this Life Storage location to store my personal items, while looking for a new home. From the beginning I found it easy to navigate the website. My first day of putting things in storage, I could not find my pass code, but the lady in the office was VERY helpful and courteous. After being away, we again couldn't remember our pass code but an employee helped us as he was in the building and was extremely pleasant and understanding. Best experience I have ever had using a storage unit! Professional and polite. Betty D"
"Tamiko Ellen Gave me great customer service ,Very polite and professional and knowledgeable of the storage answer all my questions information that I needed I would recommend this place to anyone and the person that help me was Tamiko Ellen So yeah if you need a place to store anything this is the place"
"We've had a storage unit here for a few months now and they are great! The employees are super nice and helpful. The units are very nice, clean and secure. I would recommend life storage to anyone."
"I recently relocated to Florida. Aurelia went above and beyond during my move. Realizing that my storage space would possibly be insufficient to house all of my belongings, she was able to place another space on hold that was conveniently located near my space. Eventually, I did need that additional space. I would highly recommend Life Storage!"
"I just finished using my space at life storage, Tamiko was very kind! Tamiko answered all of my questions, she was efficient, and made the process very easy. Thank you so much for the excellent service!"
"What a wonderful experience me and my boyfriend had at Life Storage, Aurelia Wager was a HUGE help to us, and was so sweet !! She made our first experience there amazing, she was very helpful and made it easy for us !! I am very pleased with our experience at this storage place, and definitely recommend it !! Make sure to ask for Aurelia Wager she’s a sweetheart."
"I can’t remember her name but the girl from Jersey was extremely helpful. She Definitely made the storage process easy for me with it being my first time. Appreciate ya!"
"My first time renting a unit and Nancy Block was an all-around helpful, kind, and caring person! She made me feel comfortable and was so friendly. I'm looking forward to using the space to store my furniture. Thanks, Nancy, for making the transaction smooth and painless. I appreciate your kind words when I was telling you my circumstances. I definitely recommend Life Storage - happy customer :)"
"The people that work here make it a great place. The office staff is very helpful and the maintenance folks are great too. Clean and well lit would describe the interior of the storage areas. When I need more storage in the area, I'll be back!"
"I needed the services of Life Storage for the past several years. Nancy and her entire staff have always bent over backwards to maintain a neat, clean, professional and most of all friendly environment. The hallways were kept clean and well lit no matter when I went in. It was a pleasure doing business with Life Storage and will look to them again in the future if the need arises."
"Didn't have much time to plan for the move and reserved my spot online. Immediately I was called and greeted by Tamiko. She was super friendly and was upfront about all additional costs. She walked me through everything and made moving in a breeze. I plan to use them going onwards :)"
"It's so funny that I wrote a review yesterday saying if I could give them less than one star I would, but guess what my comment since it was less than favorable was never mentioned. Go figure."
"If I could give less than a one star I would. It was great when it was Uncle Bob's Storage, but Life Storage took it over and we had a few items in there and granted we rented that storage for over 3 years. The rent for a 10X10 no A/C when it was Uncle Bob's it was $59.99 a month when Life Storage took over it was raised to $139 a month and if you're late the fee was $160.00. I have another storage unit at a different place and it's 15'X25' and I pay $200 a month. About 6 months ago I notice that there was water damage in my unit not to mention rat droppings and urine all over. So I went up front and talked to the manager and told her that I had taken pictures of the damage and she said I have to take my own pictures, fine! She asked if I had insurance and I told her that I didn't know, she said I'll look and let you know if you do. Well, this past Saturday I moved the rest of my furniture out and told her that I would make sure that people would hear about what a crappy place it was. She wanted to know why and when I told her about the water damage she asked me for my unit number and I told her and she says "You have insurance." I told her thanks you were supposed to call me and let me know but I never heard from you. What little I had in there was ruined, some of the things were my mother's and can't be replaced. So beware if you don't mind dealing with rude thieves. Oh, I forgot to tell you the capper to this storage debacle. When I went into the office to tell her that I was moving out and she could prorate my rent for that month since I paid for the full month but was leaving on the 6th, she said: "Oh we don't prorate anything." So beware!"
"Tamiko Ellen is always extremely helpful and professional everytime I went in to make a payment in person for my storage unit which was at a different location. She really always goes above and beyond even though I wasn't a customer at her location. If I ever need a storage in North Port, her location will be my first stop. Thank you, Tamiko!"
"Great place to store your items. Climate controlled units, and different sized units for different prices depending on how much space you need. Open 24-7 I believe."
"Great customer service. Good price with special offer (limited time only) Aurelia was a great help, she even stayed after hours to help me get a storage unit!! Thank you Aurelia!!"
"A company is only as strong as its employees. I had the pleasure of meeting Nancy Block today. From the moment I walked into the office, having no previous experience with Life Storage, I knew I made the right choice. This lady is a true credit to the organization. Give her praise for a job well done. In fact it felt more like a friend was helping me rather than someone just going through the motions. Thank you Nancy!"
"This is the second time we have used this facility and we love it. Aurelia is amazing!!!!!!!!. She is so thoughtful and very helpful .She made both times a great experience .I will definitely keep them for further use .She always has a smile on her face ."
"Aurelia was very helpful and courteous. She got me all set up with our storage unit, answered all our questions, and was very patient with the VERY busy office that day."
"Ms. Nancy Block has made the process of getting a storage unit very easy. The customer service is top notch. I am very pleased that I chose Life Storage to store my household goods."
"this location is always kept clean and organized and I always feel safe coming here even at night. The employees are also very friendly and help me with every question I have. Technically I could set up online payments but I would rather take the time to stop by and talk to them in person, awesome people and employees."
"Forced to pay late fees even know website was down when I tried to make payment. I was advised by corporate to contact the manager to get it taken care of, manager and district manager were unhelpful and rude, said they don't care, refused to waive late fee. Been a customer for 4 years. Garbage customer service."
"Tomika was so sweet and helpful we had a wonderful experience! The facility is so clean and well equipped with security great place if your looking for somewhere to keep you belongings safe!"
"The facility is very clean and well managed. The associate manager (Tamiko) was extremely helpful when I was signing the paperwork and going through the initial tour of the facility. The rates are great and the location is really easy to access."
"Rented storage space for a vehicle at this facility. Both Aurelia and Nancy
were super nice to work with. We had a problem getting into one space and Aurelia worked with us and found another space that was so easy to get into. Many thanks for going above and beyond to help us out."
"I found an extremely friendly and helpful staff. The manager (Nancy) went out of her way to accommodate my needs. The grounds and units are spotless! I will always use and recommend this Life Storage."
"I used this place for 6 months due to moving. Excellent place and very friendly staff! This place is super clean and well maintained! The pricing is very good compared to other storage units around! I would use them again in the future :) Thank you Life Storage"
"Absolutely amazing. If you need a place to store your items for 30 days or even for months. This is definitely the place to go. Completely secure and the nicest people!"
"Nancy block was extremely nice and helpful. I just moved to the area and had alot of questions and she had no problem answering all of them. I highly recomend this storage facility!"
"Aggravated with life storage.. i can never get ahold of anyone in the office when i call n if someone gets my message it takes a solid 24 hrs for a call back"
"Best experience all around. Tamiko Ellen was very knowledgeable and answered all our questions. She was extremely friendly and courteous. She also helped us get the best deal on our storage unit. 10/10 would recommend"
"Outstanding people with amazing customer service. They care about your belongings as much as you do. This is where you want to take your things if you want them safe and need them stored. The people in the office are awesome as well as the Customer Support over the phone and special thanks to Tamiko Ellen for awesome Management. They go above and beyond for their customers! I haven't ever seen anything like it!"
"Very professional storage unit, i have to thank Tamiko Ellen for everything, she was a huge help to me, Thank you for everything. i would reccomend this storage unit and Tamiko. A+"
"Both buildings and restrooms very clean.Tamiko moved my daughter in... We had a tour of both properties and was very amazed on how she greeted and interacted with the customers. I haven't seen great service like she showed from anyone in a very long time. I am definitely recommending here to family and friends."
"Facility is very well kept maintenance does a very good job. Tamika works in the front office and has such great personality, customer service skills and is always very helpful. Every time you enter the office she always has a big friendly smile which is so wonderful. I feel very safe with my items being stored here"
"I have had multiple experiences with Auriel, Nancy, and Tamiko since I relocated to FL last summer. I have gradually downsized my original rental twice and during the transitions I have always had friendly, helpful, and professional service from all 3 ladies!"
"The staff is AMAZING! Tamiko is super friendly and just right fir this job! She made it easy to find discounts and get everything set up! Great place!"
"I have rented a car storage unit previously and Life Storage was as expected, but the attendant was very friendly, helpful and sought out what I wanted to satisfy me with great care and was very customer oriented."
"We just rented space at the North Port Life Storage facility and have been moving things in daily. The ladies in the office couldn't be more informative, helpful & friendly. The maintenance guy keeps the whole place neat & clean. Couldn't be more pleased with out choice in storage facilities."
"My first impression was that Life Storage is a very silly name, but then I saw how great their service and facilities were. I guess they need some way to keep from being overwhelmed with a huge waiting list so they chose to use their name. Tamiko was very courteous and helpful. I definitely recommend life storage."
"Nancy went above and beyond to assist me with my delivery. She was great and understanding when I couldnt be there to move the boxes right away. Thank you again Nancy!"
"Our first time renting storage space EVER and it was a great experience. Aurelia was so helpful and pleasant!!! The space was immaculate and everyone was friendly and kind. We would highly recommend this facility and we will use it in the future if the need arises. Thank you Life Storage!!"
"Life Storage has the best prices in the area and is very clean. Best customer service hands down is Tamiko... I had no idea what size space I would need I never had to use a storage before and she was very helpful."
"Nancy and crew are top notch. My unit was clean and I was shown everything I needed. I was very happy with your facilities and will choose you again when needed."
"I was pleased with my experience at Life Storage. I was a bit upset at the start, when I was charged for a late fee. You graciously give the first month for free, so the customer forgets about this new bill. I feel a courtesty email could be sent just to remind us that a bill is due. You sent me an email when it was past due and then charged me. A simple reminder for the first payment would be good customer service."
"Very professional ran.the woman you have e working are incredibly nice and you NEAVER see them standing around always working .thank YOU for great services."
"I was so pleased with the help I received from the staff. I had contact via phone before going to sign the paperwork and Tamico was awesome. Then when I got there I didn't see the office as it was in another location and I called and she remembered me and helped me with directions. Then I was escorted by Tonya I believe was her name, she took me to see the unit, explained everything to me. I completed my transaction happily knowing my personal items will be in great hands. I could not have asked for better service. Thank you ladies and thank you Life Storage."
"Tamiko was very nice, personable and helpful. Overall pricing was within average range (not exceedingly high). The property appears clean and well-kept. The storage unit was a good size, but just needed to be swept out a little."
"Everyone I dealt with and/or spoke to by phone were extremely friendly, helpful and professional. Because of that, I decided to use Life Storage even tho it's farther away from my home than I wanted. And Life Storage is the best-priced by far which I really appreciated. I'm downsizing from a house to a condo in order to reduce monthly costs and didn't want to have a huge monthly cost for storage. Thank you Life Storage!"
"Tamika and Nancy were the perfect choice for us. We moved from Pubic Storage and were super impressed with the personal attention and confidence they instilled in us at the sign in process. Thanks for hiring them! It works!!!"
"Very friendly and helpful both on the phone and when at the storage place. Answered all questions and provided information needed about the storage unit. All areas were very clean and neat and very secure."
"You met my expectations and went above and beyond the call of duty - the manager is great and has always answered any questions I have no matter how trivial there were!!"
"The girl that helped me- wish I could remember her name went up and above to help us!! great experience- I hope you can find her name and give her the credit she is due."
"I really was impressed with the grounds always being so clean and tidy. We really didn't require much assistance but the employees I did have the pleasure of working with were extremely helpful and seemed happy!"
"Thank you for a smooth transition from Patriot Storage - I feel I can count on you will all my needs - it was very helpful you had an employee from Uncle Bob's at Patriot when I stopped by to pay my monthly bill. She was great explaining all to me. Thank you again."
