"It was a stressful time and I needed to find storage quickly. Life Storage met my request promptly and efficiently. The facility was always clean and I didn't once feel concern that my contents were in any jeopardy at all. The unit was clean, dry and of ample space. I would highly recommend LifeStorage. "

"Mae was very professional and helpful. When I went to register for the unit, the computer system was down. Mae advised she would phone me when it came up. A while later, true to her word, Mae called me to advise I could now return and sign up for the unit.
Thank you Mae for your follow up as promised."

"Absolutely the best example of outstanding customer service I have received in a very long time. The experience was so positive I wish I could have rented another unit. I have already recommended your service to friends.
Wonderful office manager in that location. You are lucky to have such a quality employee. "

"I was going to call but since you sent this survey I hope someone really reads it.
I rented my unit from a lady named Mae.
She was fantastic. She was very polite, professional & what an upbeat personality. She is such an asset to your company.
It was a toss up between Public Storage & Uncle Bob's [Life Storage] before I met her. Hands down she makes your place. She helps confused, unsure potential renters decide what to do in a breeze.
Thank you & PLEASE Thank Mae!!!!"

"Having a very good experience here. Our only concern is the accumulation of cigarette butts outside our unit 105. We thought it was a fire hazard and worried about our storage contents catching fire. That would be a big liability for Bob's."

"Yard maintained only minimally. Paint lines between parking spots are almost gone, and overgrown.
The people with the spot behind me park 2' or more into my spot all the time.
My trailer has had minor vandalism constantly."

"I feel well informed. I have stored at the location on Route 22 in Mountainside for many years, before it was Uncle Bob's storage. I knew when the company was changing hands and what needed to occur to make sure our storage facility and rental agreement stayed intact.

"The reason we initially chose to store our property at Lackland Self Storage (now Uncle Bob's)after the sale of our home, is that the facility appeared very clean. If the storage rooms continue to be maintained to the same standards, I would definitely refer others to Uncle Bob's in the future. I am terrified of bugs and vermin and NEVER experienced anything other than a random spider twice in seven years.

"There are only 2 hand carts available near the entrance. I've found that, on more than one occasion, I've had to wait to move my things because a single family/business (with 2 people loading or unloading) was using them."
