"I've been a Life Storage member for over 2 years and Adrian is by far the best manager/employee yet. He is kind, calm and collective. Plus, his customer service skills is out of this world. In fact, once I heard he moved from Columbus location to Hillsborough, I moved with him. Yes, moving is hassle but I made the move to ensure I continue to get the best quality service. Love this guy!"

"Went into the office to get an idea of pricing and a tour of the unit, Lula helped us out and was amazing! We had walked in without a reservation and she did an amazing job of working us in when she had alot of other customers and phone calls. She answered all my questions and made me feel confident in my choice of the storage unit and the location!"
"I had to rent a storage on an emergency basis on a sunday and kristina was a very big help. She was real thorough with the information. I couldnt have asked for better customer service. I will refer anyone who needs storage apace to this facility."
"Had my things here for about 2 to 3 years, and the staff was always amazing and friendly. The last staffember that was here for me was Christina Oliva and she was so so sweet, and always made me feel welcome. It was time for me to get things out of storage and she made the process so easy. Her coworker Lula was also amazing and so sweet as well. Had a good experience, at this Life Storage and a previous one, which makes me a life long customer. I just hope they find a way to reduce the price because paying 210$ for a 10 by 10 is still pretty outrageous for me. That money was pretty precious and I could have saved a lot for the future which dearly would have helped me. But the service is always very very good."

I left feeling confident and assured that I had placed my personal belongings in the best storage facility in Tampa! Plus the rates were so affordable. I recommend this place to all locals.

"Was looking for summer storage for college student. Looked at many places and even made a reservation at a competitor. The other place was so difficult to deal with that I cancelled and found this one. There was a mistake in the original online reservation, but it was cleared up quickly and easily after they called me (repeat, they called me, i didn't have to track them down.) Awesome service, friendly and helpful in the store. Brand new, clean, etc. Can't recommend any higher"
