"Amanda is very friendly and efficient and professional. She is very easy to work with and manages the property very well. Totally recommend Life Storage and Amanda!"
"Using a storage unit for a move and Amanda is awesome. Great deal, easy move in and very helpful. Storage availability was best in town and the facility is well kept. Thank you!"
"Amanda, the store manager, was super kind and gave me all the information I needed. I was very comfortable with my first time renting a storage unit with her and I definitely recommend this location!"
"Honestly, I’m very grateful for the staff here. They’ve been nothing but nice and have gone the extra mile for me in multiple occasions. I can’t imagine better service."
"Amanda was amazing when I lost the keys to my storage unit. She helped me get the lock cut off and get an new one installed. She made a stressful situation so much easier!"
"I had an amazing experience renting at this storage location. It went smoothly and the storage facility is extremely clean. Everything was explained really well by Amanda,from the time I was signing up until I had my lock on my storage door. Thank You"
"Amanda makes this place great. It’s clean and efficient and she’s a pro to work with. Most of these places are the same. It’s the people that make it cool. Double thumbs up to her."
"What a superwoman Amanda was! She let us into the building, helped us with our account and drilled out our lock—all in 5 minutes and all with a smile. We were truly amazed and will definitely be coming back. When you want it done right—watch Amanda. Best Dana and Veronica"
"Matthew the store manager really made the difference when deciding on which storage facility to use.(many in the area) He was patient and kind to my wife and I, even when we came in on his lunch break on a Sunday! Thanks Matt"
"Jenna helped me with determining what size I needed and got me the best rate!!! She was fantastic to work with and even got me taken care of over the phone so I didn’t have to drive on site until it was moving day!!! Thank you Jenna!!!"
"Mathew is the only thing that gets five stars here, he is genuine, kind, helpful, professional.
The company is a rip off. They raised my rates again and again wile I was away. They stole from me for about two years. Hate them.
They ruined my truck camper epic stickers from 25 years of travel by spray painting the walls next to it. The woman who was there before told me they would move my truck from its spot to paint. That never happened. I am busy and overwhelmed it is. Wish I had the energy to file a law suit. I might just do that."
"Everything was great, friendly staff, no drama --- until they closed for three days for paving and did not provide ANY notice. Not in mail, email, not even on the front door. All the notice on the door said was closed for paving with no dates. Not we are closed for 1 day, from this date to that date. Nothing. Keep coming back and we'll let you know when we are open again. If you required access for moving or business, tough. Guess when they'll open again. Not a way to treat customers."
"Just wanted to take out the time to thank Tim and Mat at this location, I fell behind on my first payment ,they worked with me until I made my payment. Thank you"
"Any time I have had a question, I have always been treated with respect and have received a prompt response. Even when I had to leave a message to "please call me at this number (not the one on file) when the repairs are done" they remembered to call me at the correct number. The storage unit is very clean - I have never seen any sign of insects/rodents. The only thing I would critique is that the carts could do with an oiling - I find them hard to handle - though that could just be me :)"
"Shari provided me with excellent customer service. She answered all my questions with a smile as she had other task at the same time. Once I’m ready to lease a storage facility this will be the one.
Thank you for your great customer service."
"Excellent customer service and very clean and organized.when I walked in I met a gentleman named Matt and he was very helpful and very funny and made everything very comfortable and easy!!! Very highly recommended for storage and other things."
"Michelle at the East location is always smiling, direct and easy to work with. Dealing with storage units is usually a stressful time. Michelle makes it so much more pleasant. Thank you …and we’ll see you soon!"
"I needed storage for a short while in between moves. It was a simple process to get started with Life Storage and I appreciated that it was month-to-month with no need to give notice prior to vacating. The counter staff (I didn't get his name) was so helpful, pleasant, and friendly and that is why I give this location at 2201 Fruitvale Road 5 stars."
"Had a wonderful experience. Shari went above and beyond to make sure that I found exactly what I needed. I've had bad storage facility experiences in the past that left me feeling unsure about trusting the safety of my belongings. But I definitely feel that my things are safe and secure. Huge shout-out to Shari for all of her help. Would definitely recommend to my friends and family."
"Shari helped me so much setting up our renting with the email she sent. What a nice girl! All set up and ready to get to Sarasota,. Thanx life storage for such a great experience."
"Moving into a smaller home in Sarasota, I was nervous about finding a clean storage unit I could trust. I came to life storage and Shari immediately made me feel welcome with her cheery attitude and bright smile. She was very knowledgeable and made me comfortable in choosing life storage as the second home for all my things."
"In a crowded market, this place stands out, mostly because of the staff. Shari and Matt guided me through the renting process with patience and humor. Thanks guys!"
"Their customer service is not as good as it could be and I was locked out in the midst of moving out and had to come back the next day but the price was good"
"I hope I have the right life storage #1019. I have a unit . I really like the cleanliness of this place. Cathy was very helpful. She explained everything to me. She treated me and my wife like family. I met the manager the next day. She was very helpful and kind too. Cathy walked my wife through the new auto pay. It recently exchange hands. And my wife could not get it the auto pay. Boy Cathy had us fixed up in no time. Thank you ladies for your help and understanding."
"Shari knows her job for only being with the company a very short time. Very customer oriented and wants the customer to know they can count on her. Shari is a “ keeper “"
"My non-profit starting using a medium storage space here during COVID after converting to online meetings and no longer holding office space. The staff has been amazing help us, because more than one person has to come and go, get our account set up and help us make this leap.
Shari and Matt helped me add names to the account and were untroubled by our unusual methods.
The location is central and yo, this place is CLEAN."
"Shari is fantastic! I needed a storage unit and Shari not only got me the right size but also made me feel welcomed and made me feel safe storing my items. Thank you!"
"I thought moving and storing would be stressful, and it was. One bright light was renting a space here. Shari and Matt were friendly and helpful, real pros."
"I LOVE this company! The staff is friendly, helpful, and stand behind their commitments. Their philosophy seems to be, “yes is the answer, now what’s the question?” My unit was clean upon arrival (the entire facility is clean and spiffy!), and the staff is on top of things. Location is perfect - close to downtown and the keys. I have owned a self storage facility myself in Ohio, and I know the business. These guys know what they’re doing, and most importantly, understand customer service. I’m a customer for life!"
"Life Storage on Fruitville is the best storage place in town. Tamiko is the friendliest and most helpful person I have dealt with in a long time. I highly recommend for your storage needs."
"Not in a clean area, furniture and trash everywhere outside the building area. Super narrow pavement to drive on to get to your storage unit. No one follows the signs on where to park your car. If its crowded forget about getting to your storage unit. Gates looks like it might not open. Very dangerous blind spot when leaving through the gate."
"Toccara couldn't have been more helpful! She went out of her way to find the space we were looking for and made everything easy to get it all taken care of.
Friendly, competent service!"
"Don't know much about renting storage, but rates seemed OK and the service we received by Toccara was exceptional. I would hire her for most any job. It just seemed like she could do anything she put her mind to, with a smile."
"My experience so far has been really amazing! From the beginning I got the help I needed finding a space. I received a great promo too! The manager Toccara is of great help. I get calls when my packages are delivered. They keep a key in the office to receive all packages. I am so happy to have found such a needed help in times of covid, and so conveniently located. Definitely recommend this location!"
"The reason for my mixed, "overall" responses is that my un-air conditioned storage space located in an area exposed to the elements and passing vehicles was not sufficiently sealed to prevent the accumulation of fine dust, grime and debris. As a result, the condition of the items I was storing was in some instances severely compromised.
The reason for my extremely positive responses regarding management and the condition of the common areas of the property is that they were exceptionally good."
"Life Storage on Fruitville Road, has exceptional customer service, always going out of their a way to accommodate and help customers such as myself with our storage needs. Tina is one of the most professional, hard working storage managers who has helped me build my business and served her own tenants in the process. The rates here are affordable, with many different storage sizes and easy access ways. I am proud to have been involved with Life Storage on Fruitville Road in Sarasota and I am a lifelong customer. Thanks for everything you all do, highly recommend.
Joe W."
"I’ve used a lot of storage facilities and I have to say that Tina is by far the friendliest and most helpful manager I’ve ever dealt with. Thank you!!"
"I have now rented three storage units with Life storage they have been quick courteous efficient and the pricing is very economical. I have worked with Tina I would recommend asking for her she is on top of her game and we'll get you everything you need to get in. The units are clean the facility is clean and it's just been a great experience"
"Tina thank you got your EXCELLENT SERVICE. You are great!!
The process to set up your storage unit is quick and swift and Tina made my process great. Very thorough and informative. She has a wonderful personality and business skills.
I would recommend renting a unit here if one is avail."
"From the first phone call to inquire to arriving at the facility the customer service is top notch! They are personable, love what they do and go out of their way to accommodate your needs. The facility is very clean and well taken care of. Thank f there were 10 stars I would give them that!"
"Perhaps the worst storage unit in Sarasota. The people running it are rude and dishonest, the hours of operation are so limited, you may as well look elsewhere, and the facility is disgusting, dirty and poorly managed. Beware before you do business with them or entrust your belongings with them."
"My stars are for Tina. She is awesome - super nice, very helpful, calm and friendly!
She is the reason I'm keeping my storage there.
The facility was very clean & cameras everywhere as well.
The only con I'd say is there seem to be a lot of transient people in & out. Might just be the area of town but "
"Tina and Connor were awesome. They know their stuff and answered all my questions with ease. They are very professional and were very kind. The whole process was quick and easy. Thanks guys!"
"I called Tina at Life Storage this morning from Mexico and was so thrilled to hear that my car is in good condition after being stored outside for 2 years!!!!
Tina was so helpful in directing me to the nearest hotel and even remembered my sister when she dropped off the car 2 years ago!!
Who does that??
Employees like Tina are rare these days, especially that she went the extra mile answering my questions, sending me a picture of the car and did it all with a smile on her face.
I would highly recommend this particular location, as their employees prove there is still integrity and authenticity when you least expect it.
Thank you Tina, I appreciate you more than you could possibly know.
Aloha ❤🙏
Kind regards,
Terra"
"You wouldn't expect the human touch at a storage place, but the staff at Life Storage are friendly, helpful, and thorough! (Special high 5 to Tina). Not to mention the monthly rates are the best around- and that's saying something here in Florida where storage facilities are on every corner."
"Your place is clean and I feel safe leaving our items there. So glad we found a space! Extra thanks to Tracey for helping us find somewhere to store my parents things, she made it easy"
"We are snowbirds here in Sarasota and decided against lugging everything back and forth. We looked into rental units and settled on LifeStorage on Fruitville Rd in Sarasota. Tina was extremely helpful and gave us a tour of the facility and then helped us through the process to get everything set up. She was extremely knowledgeable, very friendly, and answered all of our questions. I would recommend this facility to anyone looking for extra space."
"We recently rented a storage unit at this location and have had a very pleasant experience with everyone we have dealt with. The only problem I had is their hallway lights went off while I was somewhat buried in my storage unit and there is no light in the unit itself. I checked with the front office staff and they said that the hall lights are on a motion sensor timer and went off due to their not being anyone walking in the hallway for a while. So periodically, I had to walk down to the end of the hallway to keep activating the lights to stay on."
"My recent experience with the Life Storage location on Fruitville Rd, in Sarasota was excellent! Tina, the manager, was extremely helpful from the initial contact to securing my storage unit and on several occasions when I visited my unit. The facility is immaculate and all services were very professional. I would use this facility again and recommend it highly."
"My experience with Tina was friendly and effortless. She showed me the property and ran me through their procedures in a professional manner. I highly recommend life storage for your storage needs and ask for Tina!!"
"Tracey was pleasant and gave me immediate attention when I entered. She was able to bring up my reservation and confirm my rental preferences. She advised on needed locks. She gave a guided tour of the facility and advised me of rules for the grounds. The unit was shown to me before rental, and it was customer ready (clean). Back in the office, she walked me through the line items of the invoice and mentioned the special discounts I was receiving. In general, she was personable and inquired about my moving to Sarasota. Tracey gave me a copy of the invoice, provided a pamphlet with the gate code, and she even walked out to make sure the code worked for me. She said she would be in the office the following days if I wanted to take advantage of the 20% discount on moving supplies.
The units look brand new. I felt safe. This was my first day (initial move in). In addition to Tracey, another employee Tina was on the grounds. She greeted me. I observed her on a ladder and walking the storage halls on the second floor.
Overall, I am impressed with the units and process here. All employees were friendly and went out of their way to make me feel welcome."
"Rented a storage unit while renovating my home. The space stayed remarkably dry with easy access to and from my home. Good security features and the staff is remarkable. Especially, Tina! She always took really good care of me when I needed anything."
"We needed space to store our jet ski for a few days and we decided to use Life storage. Tina took great care of us and was extremely helpful and sweet! We will definitely be using Life storage again. THANK YOU TINA!"
"I have used Life Storage for several years, and the staff here are EXCELLENT! They are friendly, the 2 units I had were perfect, and if you're looking for a place to store your things, look no further!!"
"Tina and Tracy were extremely knowledgeable and creative in finding the right kind of space for me. Each, at diffrent times, new the computer system the specific storage units and their advantages and dis-advantages and they were able to accomodate my request for changes easily. This has been a pleasant and easy experience and one I would recommend."
"Needed a place to store things while in the moving process, came in and Tracey was very helpful and knowledgeable, gave an amazing tour of the facility. She really made the decision a no brainer. Will highly recommend her to friends in need of a storage space."
"I was shopping for a storage unit and stopped in to see Tracey at the Sarasota Life Storage location. She was busy but took the time to walk me through the different unit sizes and pricing. While I was there, I asked other tenants about the quality and satisfaction of the place and everyone highly recommended it. Tracey was very helpful and I recommend anyone to this location!"
"I called life storage & talked to Tracey who was very knowledgeable & professional. She helped me tremendously. I would recommend anyone to call her if they need information about self storage."
"I can't compliment Tina enough, for the excellent service she gave us, this past year. We needed to store things from my uncle's estate, and she always stopped what she was doing, to offer any help we might need. The storage unit and the surrounding areas were very clean and well maintained. When it was time to close out the unit, it was a very simple process. Now we have to figure out a way, to keep in touch with Tina and her staff, who treated us like family! Thank you for everything!! We hope to stop and see you, when we are in Florida!!

They do what they say they are going to do."
"Tina and the team at Life Storage #883 on Fruitville Pike are awesome. I told people who don't have anything to put in storage to rent a space here, the customer service is so good! Nothing but friendly staff, helpful, clear with explanations and information, and willing to help out any time.
We rented a smaller 4x4 space and received the same high caliber customer service as if we were renting a huge space. I highly recommend you see Tina at this Life storage facility - she can help you with your storage needs."
"Clean and convenient for Downtown =L... A bit more than most places.. but it's the only one that is downtown and It's a good place for me. My family and I can walk to the storage unit in a few minutes from anywhere in the downtown area"
"Although I gave all of your questions high marks for staff and facility we had to move to another “temperature controlled” storage facility that stayed open until 9:00 pm because we were unsatisfied with your limited hours."
"Very pleased with attentiveness of personnel, Tina and a man whose name I wish I recalled. This is a well run company. Many thanks for meeting my needs and being clear concise, considerate, and helpful."
"I was in the process of an interstate move sold my house/not sure where I was going to land and needed a quick storage solution. These folks are amazing. Made arrangements over the phone initially and when I walked in to take possession of the space, Tina made it so easy. She also arranged to keep my storage space keys so if movers arrived before I did, she could let them in. Took a huge weight off of my shoulders. Thanks again!!!"

She helped me when I was first looking for a storage space and a year later when I needed to switch to a smaller space. Great customer service and very thorough about explaining the process and charges. thanks again!"
"If I could hire Tina I would!
I went to check out Life Storage and hopefully get a quick tour and have some questions answered. Tina the Store Manager was so extremely helpful, friendly, courteous and professional. She gave me a tour and we went to look at an available locker of the size I thought I would need. Tina explained everything from entering through the gate, parking on left side of drive, where carts were stored, bathroom location, etc. You name it I learned about it! A couple of other customers came in once we were I the office again and Tina took a few moments to ask them what they needed, even telling one person it was so she could prioritize who to help first. I told Tina her customer service was great and if I ran a business here in Sarasota, I would have tried my best to hire her away to run my place!
Oh, and the facility is neat and orderly, well kept up and I did go ahead and rent a locker."
"This facility is clean, well maintained and the staff is knowledgeable and courteous. I stopped in the office after using my storage unit and had a question which Tavaris Keaton was able to answer quickly and accurately. This place is great!"
"Reserved online and then went there and spoke to Tina to clarify and see the site. Very helpful, friendly, clean and informative.
This place was also recommended to me by a number of people locally."

"I wsa in a last-minute pinch and needed some storage. Mary helped me find exactly what I needed and was able to get me out of my jam. I will only be using them from now on for any storage needs!"
"We are very pleased with the location and the storage unit we are renting. Tina and Mary, the office staff, are very helpful and kind. I highly recommend this company to store your collectibles or excess household items and furniture. The parking lot is a little tight, with only one way out. But overall, Life Storage on Fruitville Road, Sarasota, is a 5-star company, with a great staff. Many thanks!!1"

"Life Storage on Fruitville Rd in Sarasota is operated by two excellent people - Mary and Tina. They are extremely kind, caring, courteous and professional. Just a small example is their help finding me a metal bar to go with my wardrobe box that was missing one. Instead of having to buy a completely new box with the metal bar, they were kind enough to locate one for me and then took the time to call me to let me know they had found one. I highly recommend this facility because of the excellent management."
"everything is just fine. it is a very nice place and the ppl are normal, not agressive or on edge to have you move out after you pay to move in......"

Great overall experience! : )
