"Rob the manager and his assistant Katrina were very helpful in clearing up an inconvenience on the online set up. I’m very happy with the results and their professional customer service was great.

"Rob was extremely helpful and made sure we were happy with the space we picked out. He was kind enough to show us several spaces because we needed a certain height, and the one assigned to us was just a bit short. Even though Rob thought they were all the same size, we did find one 2inches higher and we were happy!"
"I would like to update my review from a few weeks ago. I don't know how to delete that review. I went to the wrong storage facility. It is right next door to Life Storage. When I called customer service they asked me if I was at the correct location, because there is a storage facility right next door. I went back the next day, and sure enough I had been at the wrong facility. We now have a storage unit at Life Storage. Rob was incredible. Very helpful and pleasant. He helped us get exactly what we needed and went out of his way to make us happy. The facility looks brand new, is climate controlled, clean and bright. If you need storage space I would highly recommend this place 320 S River Street in Hackensack!"
"I just went to look at the storage rooms. Now, while reading the reviews, I wonder if I was at the right place. Everyone says the place is new. We were told today that it's about 30 years old. Everything on line indicates that the rooms are climate controlled. We were told they are not. There is no elevator. There is a "lift" for your boxes, etc, but no people are allowed on it. That's fine, but it's not an elevator. There are no lights or outlets in the room. I guess that's how all storage rooms are. I have never had one, but I was surprised.
I give 3 stars only because the website information is not accurate. It makes me wonder what the final monthly cost will be."
"This is the best storage experience I've had. The building is fairly new and the staff are great. They have the best access times around. I definitely recommend them for your storage needs !!"
"Katrina was extremely helpful! We met with her twice, she showed multiple units until we found the one she wanted. Definitely recommend seeing her for rentals!"

"I would like to thank Katrina for all her help. She was very nice and helpful. I hope that I have her name right. She was the woman at the desk on Monday afternoon. Ty have a great day."
"I drove by this storage place, and thought this place is new so it's going to be expensive. This location is not only brand new, it's immaculately clean, staff is helpful, friendly and very professional. It's cheaper than all other locations in Hackensack, I called them all and visited them all.
I'm so happy that my items will be in a climate controlled space, the space I picked is huge and I pay like $100 less than all other locations in the area for the same new space. Thank you Life Storage, so happy that I found you!"
