"We had our storage unit door damaged as a result of attempt of robbery at this location. It took about a Month for it to get fixed. While at the Gunn Highway location to get another unit, Ivan and Maria assisted us by sending an e-mail directly to maintenance so they could expedite repairs at the Fletcher & Nebraska location. When we arrived to move out our things from that location Adonis & Xiomara were very kind and helpful! Mardi Sales, did allow us to move our things w/o charge due to the inconvenience and because we had been very patient, which we appreciated. But she was not very helpful or the nicest DURING this process."
"Mara && Mardi are the besttt ❤️. After a long day of being a mom and moving , they helped me every way possible. Best customer service && Wonderful ladies ."
"Store no 678
I met one of the best person in usa her name is Xiomara. She is so good that she will help you in understanding everything and help you out in prices too .
Thank you so much xiomara"
"If you have stuff to store, store it here! I can’t say enough about Mardi and Adonis, they’re customer service is top notch going over and above to be helpful."
"The best customer service I could ever experience with high security that I needed for myself and my stuff which I can't blame for a great price and a great neighborhood love the service there great customer service and best service of men help too lovely will always come back"
"Imvery pleased with the sales associate he helped me out a lot she kept me calm and grounded when I thought I was about to be hysterical her name is Mardi sale she's a store manager at 815 East Fletcher avenue Tampa Florida 33612 she did a very wonderful job and I would recommend her for anybody else to help for help at this l lifestorage she was awesome thank you"
"the New manager Marty has been there for a week, poor thing we have watched her spend all day trying to clean the place. Now we see the location going in the right direction but the owners need to help this lady and offer better pay to attract any employees to help her. no excuse because they make alot of rent money from the place. we know because they just increased our rent $50 more."
"These people go on lunch break so much.
Everytime I try to Visit the office for keys, or boxes, or payments, or help. It’s always got a sign of “closed for lunch”
At 2pm, then again at 4pm and etc.
how many lunch breaks a day you going to take????
I can only imagine how the business your losing doing this.
Then I pay my balance last night and returned at 7pm to find out my passcode was never unlocked. The employee forgets to unlock my passcode so I’m back again today and can’t even get in because she’s back on another lunch break."
"Its almost been a month since I rented out a unit for my mom and all i have to say is that my overall experience here has been great and i definitely would like to thank Sarai and Shannon for that. Thanks!"
"I am not at all happy with Life Storage. I rented a unit in St. Cloud, Florida on May 29th. With this rental agreement (that I did online) I was supposed to rent one month and get one month free. I did this. NOW....less than a month later I found out that the units were purchased by some other company, I was not notified and they are not honoring my free month. IF I had not called randomly to check on my unit, my belongings would have been thrown away without any knowledge on my part. I would NOT recommend Life Storage AT ALL. This is not a good business."
"Great staff! Very easy process to obtain a storage unit. Customer service through the phone was very helpful and friendly. Will certainly use them over and over again!"
"I rented my space online. I arrived today to store my son’s college dorm stuff for the summer. Samatria (I hope I spelled her name correctly) was so helpful and nice! Great experience so far!"
"I almost rented a storage here but quickly changed my mind once I arrived. First off, it's in the middle of one of the worst neighborhoods in all of Tampa. There are people who will spot from across the street and harass you.Then, When I went to go claim a reservation, and forgot my storage lock at home, they said that they can't give me the spot until I have it locked, or else the homeless and other criminals and come in and do horrible things. I thought to myself "wait, you have all these gates and security cameras, and you're casually telling me that anyone can just come here and do whatever they wsnt??" I quickly said no thanks and never came back. Also don't be fooled my the free month promotion, because with fees locks and taxes, you still have to pay a lot."
"Always great service, plus very affordable pricing, make Life storage my go-to storage company. I have used Life storage 3 different times/ locations in the last 5 years. But they were all in the greater Tampa Bay area. Each one was consistently great.
I have used other companies in the past, with nothing but bad luck and hassles at best, at worst I lost everything I owned.
The only thing that I wish Life Storage would change is to offer 24 hour access. Otherwise, the access hours are still pretty good 6am - 10pm at most locations."
"Mice mice mice mice mice. They will not give you any pest control or rat traps. My husband has caught and disposed of over 40 mice withing a few month period. He keeps his storage clean but neighbors have stuff full to the brim and mice are coming from over there. So even if you are clean the other tenants will infect your stuff with their pests. Please check out a different store with climate control."
"Sarai is a great manager and she took care of me today as a new customer guaranteeing a pleasant experience. Definitely worthy of time and process for rental, very helpful now and in the future."
"Sarai is a great manager and she took her time and explained everything to me about my storage space and answered any questions i had she was great!!"
"No pest control, increase in rent for nothing in return. F...u pay us. Paid late fee on 4th, was told your late , u pay late fee. Lucky, I need my stuff."
"The staff here Life Storage are so nice and sweet. They looked out fir me when I had to vacant. It was Three items I couldn't put on my truck, due to my apartment wasn't ready. They allowed me a few days to get my stuff without charging for the 2 days. They are very professional staff. I know I will come back if I need them. Amen.
They are goid people. Come check them out. You won't regret it.😊"
"At first I believed this place would be good but my experience with Life's storage at e. Fletcher ave and M. Nebraska turned out to be horrible. The manager and one of the female employees that worked on Nov. 6th knew that I could not afford to pay the catchy 2nd month price of 118.00 dollars so after searching tiresomely for someone with a truck, I explained to the manager the day prior which was Nov. 4th that I want be paying for an additional month. I cleaned the Storage out and had made several trips of moving my things, I left the Storage with most off the heavy furniture and I leave the door up to show that it is clean and empty but put aside a clue boxes that were small but important content, the manager and female rmployee conspire and they take the small boxes put them back into my storage and lock me out . I return to take my last bit of stuff that was out and away from my unit to find that they put it back inside and tell me I have to pay the 118 follies for an additional month if I want my things. Some people in the land feel that they can do evil things to people and get away with it, but one day when they cross over out of time and into the eternal they will stand face to face with Jesus Christ as all of of will and they will give an accou6for every deed done in The body and every word from their mouth, I'm "Holy ghost filled woman of God."
"The prices are very affordable and unbeatable. Eric was of great help in choosing the perfect size needed for all my furniture and boxes. Would definitely recommend this facility to everyone. Thank you Life Storage for everything.."
"Billing is inconsistent labels rent late and sets a 120 fee before being late 15 days and after collecting the main sale still will put you into collections with no billing papers"
"*FALSE ADVERTISING*
It advertised a month free but in reality you pay more on renting a space in the initial signing month. And a free month is NEVER GIVEN!
You pay every month thereafter.
A FREE MONTH MEANS NO COST FOR A MONTH!!!
Insurance is understandable.
And they charge you almost $5 to pay with their automated system.
WHAT IS THAT COST FOR?
IT'S NOT A REAL PERSON YOU PAY!
The website posted on the ways to pay card given to you at sign up, isn't a working site. So I couldn't register and when I call the store payments aren't excepted over the phone and she directed me to the automated system...
I called a # located on the card and that person give the right web address but before I could register I got a ride to the storage and played in person.
Took me 2 days and a some frustrated moments just to pay for my unit with this company."
"Sarai was a great help. Very professional andInformative, so I feel as though my things will be safe here. I’ve yet to move my things in so I’ll be back to give a review on a later date"
"Sarai was super helpful with figuring out my storage needs. This is the facility to come to if you are in need of good value and excellent customer service."
