"Paul was very nice and professional. Helped us get a unit quick and easy. No hidden fees, and they're up front with what you're getting. They had everything we were looking for. This is the best storage place we've rented from yet."
"Absolute trash facility. Paul reached out in late December one time to inform about possibly going to auction. Was no call or email before auction to attempt to resolve balance."
"Always returned to my stuff the way I left it. Never had a problem there. Always felt my belongings were secure. Would use again if needed. Thanks life storage staff!"
"This is a great storage location. Paul was extremely courteous during my sign up. I told him what I needed to store, and he showed me the storage unit before I made a decision. It is very spacious and cheap. My only complaint is that the security was not working when I signed up. I was told it would be getting fixed that weekend. I only needed the unit for about a month, but the gate was never fixed in that time. Otherwise, it was a great service with great customer service."
"Brad was so awesome he was the best employee I have encountered yet with life storage. He was so helpful and kind and answered every question we had. He deserves a raise I hope he gets recognized for being a great employee. I would definitely return just to around his great customer service."
"Literally was here for over a year. Our storage got broken into. And mysteriously showed up in another unit. He said the guy moved out and they went to check and stuff was in it. But when I picked up a piece of mail with a different gentlemen name on it I ask if he was the one who moved out he said no.Paul tried to convince me and my fiancé that we were sleepy and placed it there. My fiancé went to drop off a bike rack at 10 in the morning not pick up stuff. They refused to show us footage which there was a camera right outside our unit! Paul has tons of excuses and try’s to make you seem like your crazy. I feel as though he was involved and I think we are going to go above him to the police and get this all fixed. Please do not rent here ever!! And if you do be sure to lock your storage because they pop it and take whatever they want.I also took pictures of our unit empty it was 398 just so you guys are aware there are thief’s here."
"As an auction unit buyer, I appreciate the speed and efficiency I always receive when doing business here. The manager is always prepared for me before I walk in the door. Many Thanks."
"I needed a small storage during my school break. I was able to do everything online. I came after close and everything was waiting for me including a lock. It was clean and air conditioned. Manager was very professional. Great experience."
"I buy storage spaces at auction and the guys here really have their act together. I can never understand it. Usually when I come in after buying a space, it takes 20-30 minutes literally for the managers to process the paperwork. Not here. I was in and out again in 2 minutes. This is the second time that this has happened and I was blown away. I asked why he (Paul?) was so fast while it takes forever everywhere else and he said that he likes to be prepared and was ready and waiting with everything done in advance. You can tell when a place is well run and it shows here for sure. Time is money and minimizing my time is greatly appreciated. Thanks guys. If you have any more future auctions, I'll keep buying for sure."
"I do not like that there is a 1030 pm. cap on how late I can visit my storage facility. They tend to be very understanding about being there after hours or creating a mess..as long as you clean up your mess when you are through. I can't count how many times I've filled up the hallway outside my storage unit with my stuff and no one has ever said anything about the mess. I've seen items left and usually they will be grabbed by other storage renters but true trash is also picked up after a day or so by the men that run the facility. Good security too. When I lost my phone which had my gate code in it, I had to provide photo ID before they would give me the code to get into the storage area. This was after several months of coming and going and the occasional question or bathroom request. The bathrooms are closed when they are no longer there I think they leave at 4 pm or 5 pm. So if you are there late try to remember that fun fact."
"Have been keeping my belongings in this place for a year or so and i finally managed to lose my keys to my lock. Manager Paul was able to help me and grinded the lock off for me in minutes. Great place for protection and great service always!"
"Best prices I could find. I did everything online, but when I got there I realized that my spot was too small. The manager was on the ball and helped me get into a bigger spot right away. My movers were unloading while we did the paperwork. Great customer service."
"I love the staff here, they are the most friendly and helpful people I've experienced in the storage industry so far. The storage lockers are easy to get to and easy to load, and it's all first floor"
"Paul and Brad are Most Definitely the Dream Team.I have been a Life Storage customer for over 5 years with a 10 × 30 and Not looking to leave anytime soon.Cheapest place in town and the cleanest storage facility too.Thank You Paul and Brad for what you Both do to Helping People in Such Tough Times in Our Everyday Lives too."
"i have been very satisfied with my experience with Life Storage. I checked around and the rates are low and they gave me a nice special when I moved in. The guys in the office are always friendly and helpful. If I need storage again in the future, I will definitely go back."
"I needed a place to keep my belonging while I was out of school during Covid. Life Storage was great. I got a month for free and got all of my moving stuff right in the office. The guys in the office were very efficient. Definitely will use them again if the need arises."
"Paul the manager was really helpful and professional both times I had stored things with the company. The place is always kept clean also and is quiet in a good area."
"They guys in the office were great. They got me a better deal than what I had originally reserved inside the climate building. Its clean and feels very safe. Cameras are everywhere."
"They don’t answer the phone even when they’re sitting in the office and it would be nice if you weren’t allowed to leave garbage outside your unit for a month. For over three weeks there has been a green tarp out from a unit as you pull in making it look nice and trashy"
"Excellent customer experience! Paul was very helpful in explaining storage options and what would work best for our needs. He broke down all pricing options, including taxes, fees etc so I k ew exactly what was expected every month. Went as far as to take us to a unit to show us the floor space. Definitely recommend!"
"Great place to store your stuff. I was doing a renovation of my office and needed a place to store everything for a month. Was treated fairly and the facilities were extremely clean. Our family has been using this location for storage on and off throughout the years. No hassle storage, definitely recommend it."
"Great experience. Have had climate controlled storage units here over the last several years. Facility is clean and the staff have always been very quick, responsive, and helpful."
"The manager Paul and the other man who work in the office are exceptionally good people and always treated me well.
Thanx guys,
Letha (storage unit 1156A)"
"Super nice service and very clean! Very simple and accommodating and super affordable! Definitely will use them again! Made my moving experience a lot easier!"
"I needed to store my vehicle due to garage renovation, decided to try this location based on all the positive reviews. I like the convenient location and clean facilities, reasonable price too. Manager Paul is courteous and professional. He took his time to answer my questions and showed me the storage unit. I would give it a 5 star plus!"
"Great staff Paul was extremely helpful and a pleasure to deal with. Very pleased with my unit and the service that was provided. Definitely would recommend this location to anyone."
"What a fantastic and safe place to store your belongings ,the staff is very polite and the area is well maintained and sanitary.thanks for your service."
"Top marks. I got a month free on move in and the guys in the office were great. Even with all of the craziness going on they went out of their way to find the right fit for me."
"Very clean inside and out. No bugs what so ever. Also, I never saw questionable company hanging around like another place I had a storage unit at. Nice experience."
"I am a new customer who was uncertain about what size storage unit I needed. Paul was wonderful and very knowledgeable about what will actually fit. He exemplified excellent customer service skills by showing concern for the customer. He could have encourage go bigger which in return would cost more.
He told me the sizes of the units available and then we toured them for me to actually get a visual. I am appreciative for his experience and excellent service!!
The units and the facility are nice clean, well taken care plus they have cameras. I toured a few storage facilities and some did not make me feel safe leaving my things nor were they clean. Life Storage is top notch!"
"Very happy with my decision to use Life Storage. Paul was great during my move in. I got the 1st month for free. The place seems very clean and secure."
"Excellent customer service. They were courteous and professional and seemed to work to get me the best option available for my situation. The place is clean and well maintained. Easy access."
"The guy in the office was very helpful. He recommended a different space that was cheaper and had a better move in special than the one I reserved. They also have great prices on supplies (alot less than the box stores). Definitely recommend due to the high level of customer service."
"My friend moved all of his belongings into this place for 6 months while he had a house built. When he came to pick his stuff up there were millions of roach droppings and thousands of roaches everywhere. EVERYWHERE!! When we got to the back of the unit, all of the boxes and all of the contents were ruined with moisture damage from a trench that they claim is for drainage. On top of everything, the worker blamed my friend for it all and refused to help in any way. This place is a scam. Avoid."
"PAUL at Life Storage is THE MAN! Hes always gone above and beyond to help me. Ive been storing some things here for a while and needed to upgrade to a bigger unit; not only did Paul help me find the best unit for my needs AND budget, but he also let me borrow a lock for the night until I could switch my stuff from one unit to the other the next day without having to buy an extra unnecessary lock! If you need to store some things, come see PAUL at 49th St N location... Only Storage Place Ill Do Business With Because Of The AMAZiNG Staff, thank you so much for your services- Sarajane Wilson:)"
"This place forces you to pay for insurance even though its covered on another policy. Felt very nickled and dimed. Other storage facilities allow you to waive the insurance if you already have insurance. Besides the items going into a storage unit that you rent is up to you weather you want to insure the items or not. This is America after all! Just another way to generate revenue for insurance companies."
"Was very impressed with the Mgr. Paul who was always very professional and treated me as though I mattered to them. Will definitely be back when the need arises and highly recommend you guys! Thanks again!!"
"Convenient location for my business needs. The office guys are friendly and professional. The prices are better than any that I found in the local market. The place is clean and secure. I recommend Life Storage on 49th Street."
"This place was amazing. The staff was friendly and courteous and helpful. In and out in less than half our and my needs were met. Would recomend to all."
"Unless you start off with this had a terrible move here from Iowa to Florida looking for a storage unit was so easy with LifeLock I felt so secure when I walked in the door everything was explained and I felt comfortable and reassured that my stuff is going to be safe and sound here it was so easy the process of getting a storage unit I think life storage for making my life so much easier"
"Paul McKean and Brad Ely of store 886 in st Pete where great in assisting us on things we needed .we were there for some exterior painting for there facility and some inside work very professional staff .thanks again crew at color brute / four seasons"
"This place was very helpful during a stressful move. I accidentally secured a non climate controlled unit and they got me a different unit in no time. They also made the whole check in and paperwork process as speedy as possible since I was under a time constraint. The service was great, and their prices are good. I would definitely use them again."
"The guys in the office were really cool. They worked with me to get the right space for me with the best deal (3 months half off - can't beat it). Top marks."
"We've been super pleased with our experience here. The manager, Brad, is awesome and has been great to work with.

The units are clean and secure and the rates are the best we have found in town! Highly recommend"
"I would like to give Paul and Brad 10 stars, always friendly and helpful, I don't mind paying my bill because I am getting the service I wanted, Thanks guys."
"I came in today to get a storage unit and I was extremely impressed. I have had storage units in the past that were half the size and twice the price. This is by far the cleanest storage facility in the area and for an amazing price. The person helping me, Paul, was great and found me the perfect unit. There are many promotions going on right now so if you are looking to move or just have extra stuff cluttering your home I definitely reccomend stopping by."
"GEORGE is AMAZING! Upon relocating from Atlanta, GA to Pinellas Park, FL I was looking for a storage unit that would meet my needs as far as space and at a good price. George was happy to explain the storage space that was best for me as well as current promotions. Not only was he courteous and friendly, he was very professional and knowledgeable. I chose Life Storage because George made me very comfortable as well as happy with storing my things at Life Storage."
"This has been the best storage facility I have used over the years. The manager Paul has given me outstanding customer service and the prices are more than fair in comparison to the competition. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone in the area that needs to store anything from the small unit to the biggest multi-bedroom sized units. I currently have a 10x20 unit and there is even an electrical outlet right outside of it that I can use when need be."
"2019-03-30 ... Executive Summary: A GREAT Experience for Five (5) years ... Facility is always Clean and Safe ... Staff is also excellent ... Rated 10 stars out 5 ..."

"You met all of my expectations. Paul (?) was nice and courteous to me, he took his time making sure I understood the agreement and offered me a special. He also assisted me with other purchases. In my time of distress he made everything a smooth process."
"Thank you for watching over my unit. Paul called to tell me I forgot to put my lock back on the door.
When I returned to put the lock on, Brad,(Please forgive me, I am having a senior moment. I hope that is his name)lubed the door rollers to make it easier to raise. I am very satisfied with the service and overall renting experience."
"I was absolutely exhausted from moving all day and came to the storage place I thought I had my reservation at turns out I was in the wrong spot but the gentleman behind the counter was absolutely wonderful and told me that he would help me. It was such a relief. He was very polite very professional and worked quickly knowing how tired I was. I appreciate it so much"
