"Really welcoming and helpful girl at the desk. She helped determine what size storage unit would be best for me because I really wasn’t sure what I needed and didn’t want a bigger space than necessary. She chose a perfect size. It’s a safe and clean property too. My things feel safe here. Thanks for your help!"

After arriving to the facility to view site interested in, I met a great lady name Patrice along with Lauree. These ladies made this transaction for me SIMPLE and SWIFT.
