"Great spot! Rented for over a month and Khalid Noor (Store Manager) was extremely helpful with explaining and answering any questions. Put me at ease knowing my stuff was safe."
"Great space. Secure. Monitored. Very clean. Carts available for maneuvering your stuff through the corrugated metal, maze like halls. If some old furniture could be happy, mine would be."
"Great space to store your stuff. The staff is very professional and polite. Had stored my stuff for almost 2 months and everything went well. Highly recommend."
"Facility was perfect for my needs: easy to access my stuff anytime, safe, well-lit and clean place. Staff was always helpful. Carts were available to help me haul things - generally very satisfied."
"Life Storage on Presumscot Street was a great place to store my things; it was easy to set up the rental, their automatic payment option saved any anxiety about missing a bill, and it was nice to have 24/7 access for those random times when you just NEED something in your unit at 11pm.
The only complaint I had was the price increase. I was thrilled to find a local storage unit at $60/mo... but after a while the price went up considerably with no notice (the $60 jumped to $94 out of the blue, I had to call to find out why.)
Overall, Life Storage was the best option at the time I needed it. The employees were always friendly, the building was clean and easily accessed, and even canceling was easy. Would recommend/use in the future."
"Great facility. Clean, bright, and easy to access. Great communication throughout our rental period with facility management. Will definitely return if we have storage needs in the future."
"Loved the price for the amount of space I needed and very convenient area. Great manager who always greets you when you walk into the office. Highly recommend this Lifestorage"
"Rips off customers by raising its rates about every 2-3 months. I've had my rates go up $50 over a year. They use the shortage of units in the area to their advantage for sure to scrape every penny from their customers."
"Jacki was so helpful when I was in need of a storage unit. She made the process so easy and seamless. The property is so clean and so safe, I’m so glad I found them. Would highly recommend this location and their amazing manager Jacki."
"Only had to keep my stuff here for 1 month, but SUPER clean facility, good amount of parking, friendly staff and really decent prices! All around great experience and if we weren't moving I'd keep storing my stuff here. :)"
"Last summer I was living in Florida and in the process of selling to move back to Maine. I knew I would be staying with my family until I found a place to live, therefore I needed to send my belongings to a storage unit. I called Life Storage to inquire about climate controlled units and found them extremely helpful in arranging storage units close together, as I needed more than one, and on the first floor. My furniture arrived before I could make the trip north, so my daughter and grandson met the movers in the pouring rain. They got all my things under roof quickly and when I got there a week later, I was really surprised at how bright, clean, and well managed the place is. Credit is to be given to the manager Jacki Bogan of Life Storage #891 on Presumpscot St. in Portland and her assistant, Edith, with whom I had many interesting conversations with during several visits to pick up some of my things. All in all, for the five months there, I found it to be a great place, a great experience and I highly recommend them!"
"Life storage in Portland Maine is clean and well run. My husband and I arrived on a panic to find storage after a reservation we thought we had with Portland Uhaul - to store items after a 2000+mile trip - was not honored. Edith stayed late on a Sunday afternoon to help us figure out what would work for us and we were able to unload that evening, as planned and needed by our move logistics."
"Roby Thibodeau was a huge help. He was awesome and was prepared to aid me in any way that I needed. From a month prior to me moving in he set a reminder to hold my unit for me. We showed up on a rainy day, he was helpful in showing us the building so we had no issues moving my stuff around. Dollies were abundant right at the front door, hallways were clear and before I left he made sure I was all set with my first payments and even mentioned online features. I was quite nervous doing this at a young age, I thought there was going to be hoops to jump through, but it went super smooth and I really recommend life storage on Persumpscot street in Portland."
"Life Storage #891 at Presumpscot St. was such a positive experience. Rob helped me decide which storage unit was best for my needs. I was going through a very difficult time especially moving before Christmas. The building/hallways where always well lit, good size elevator and plenty of carts. I also noticed that during my many visits to my unit other storage tenants wore their mask and keep social distance and respect. Both Edith and Rob were always available to answer my questions, also if you neglect to lock your unit correctly they will safety lock your unit on there daily walk through. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Life Storage #891 to my friends."
"The manager was very helpful reviewing sizes and prices for me. I had a lot of questions and he was very patient and helpful. The building was clean and lots of parking"
"We used a large storage unit for a couple of months to store our household belongings because we were renovating. It was conveniently located for us as well as clean and accessible when we needed to get in for something. The only thing I would say is I wish there was a light inside of the unit--would have made it easier to find things stacked in there. But that is a small issue and we will definitely use Life Storage again when the need arises!"
"We explored several options for storage facilities and were the most positively impressed with the offerings at Life Storage. The managers there are very courteous helpful and accommodating. So the customer service is outstanding and another plus is that the location is very accessible. We had multiple opportunities for comings & goings to get our stuff and all access went smoothly. Cleanliness was also a plus."
"I am very impress with the level of customer Service. The On Site staff very courteous, friendly and helpful.The building and storage spaces are both very clean."
"My experience with Life Storage is an easy going and pleasant one. Have had a backup storage unit for a few years now. They are very easy to work with and are very helpful. They also provide the best customer service. The new Manager now Don has been really awesome. Going that extra mile with customer service. He helped me when I had a billing issue and it was resolve promptly. Also my unit door got jammed after something fell over inside and he personally assisted me to get the door to open. This facility is always clean and staff is professional. The storage units are also very safe and secure. Love the fact that this is an indoor facility. Would definitely recommend to my family and friends."
"This is an excellent storage facility. I love that it is indoors. They have several carts, including a mattress cart, that makes moving in/out very easy. It is a clean facility. It is priced very well. Customer service is great. The facility is very clean and secure. The building is brand new and updated. Very happy we found life storage!"
"Reasonable monthly rates. Very clean overall facility. Two entrance storage unit a real plus. Easy access during off-hours. Moving carts in good working order and always available."
"I really appreciated how easy it was to close my storage space.
TBH i was expecting to get ripped off for an extra month of rent after i was done with the space, but you guys made it super easy and straight-forward."
"The staff was friendly and helpful. The building was clean. I was looking for smaller space but they had a wait list. They were helpful with suggesting other locations"
"We used this facility to store for the month while we waited for our new residence to be ready. We found it to be very convenient to the local U-Haul, and the manager to be both capable and friendly. Would definitely recommend them!"
"Checking in was so easy and quick. The space is clean and the location is really convenient. Jamie was welcoming and very helpful. All in all, a great experience."
"The staff at the Portland location were incredibly friendly and helpful. They went out of their way to answer my questions and make sure that I was fully informed about options and the rental contract. The space was very clean and well maintained and the staff did an overall excellent job making me feel comfortable and confident storing my belongings in their facility.
Thank you!"

I was a customer of Life Storage in Florida and had a great experience there also. Your employee's shine. And your prices are reasonable. I also spoke with Jamie White, she was very knowledgeable in answering my questions. A great team at this location, taking charge.
