"I have to move next month and wanted to shop around for a storage facility. I went to Life Storage on Ridge Road first because it was the closest to me. I’m so glad I did. Anthony greeted me when I walked in. He is a real people person. Very up beat and knowledgeable. He explains everything to me in detail and even brought me outside to see the different space they offer and what the price range is. If I could I would give him more than 5 stars! If you are looking you need to stop by there. If he’s working he will take great care of you. You can just tell he loves what he does."
