Stephen is very pleasant, courteous, sharp, organized, thorough, effective, efficient and conducts business at just the right pace- he does not rush you and still keeps the tempo of business moving forward at an effective pace.

"Usually people dread having to use a storage facility because of the price and the employees are usually very brisk. I've never had that problem at Uncle Bob's [Life Storage]. Everyone that I have dealt with have been absolutely wonderful. And every time I need to go to my unit the grounds and building are always clean and well lit at night. "

"My expectations were truly met. Darren was very helpful even going the extra mile in not just directing me to where the extra push carts were but he assisted in getting one to me. He was pleasant when i first got storage and was pleasant when later returned to storage with more things joking that i am still piling into my space. I would definitely recommend others to your business. Honestly, i cannot recall Public Storage as being so friendly. "

"My experience at the storage facility has been very good; however, I don't remember every getting an invoice. Once month, I was overdue and denied entry until I realized that I had not paid.
A better notification system of invoicing would be most helpful.
(This comment comes from a person who enjoys an 800+ credit rating. I rarely miss payments).
Thank you."
