I hope you get her when you go in. Glad I did!"

"Had a great experience with both Zach on the phone and the manager, Christina. Both had great attitudes and helped me feel at ease with storing my truck. Highly recommend life storage Syracuse !"
"Amazing staff very helpful and always keeping a happy and welcoming attitude. On first notice walking into the office you get an aroma that greets you like your grandmothers house and the hospitality to match. The beautiful layout of the store makes it convenient to not only purchase storage materials but rent a storage unit. If your blessed enough to have the bank account for a climate controlled unit I highly recommend. Its not only the perfect cool but I found myself nearly dozing off in my unit while storing my stuff. Needless to say my experience wouldnt have been whole without the two best staff members Christina and Peary. These two are not only some of the sweetest people but also very helpful navigating the expansive world of storage.
Hands down wonderful experience.
Definitely recommend!!!!!"

"I just have to say that I was forced to get 2 storage units due to unforseen personal circumstances .. Helen was there for the most part, then a younger guy as well.. Both of them were equally friendly, helpful & cared about my situation.. That is a wonderful thing to have in the environment.. Helen was always on the job of keeping the office and grounds clean... Her little caddy cart is the best! It was great to have peo0me like that when I was going through such a chaotic time .."
"I am old 70. Retired. Fixed income. My Credit Card rolls the First Business Day of the Month. I would like to set up auto pay but I can't cope with when the First is Saturday, Sunday or a Monday Holiday as I get billed twice in the one month! It would be nice for me if you had something other than cycle 1!"
"The representatives have been absolutely great. My issue is regarding cost. I have two family members, each using different storage properties and paying $20-$30 less for a few more feet that what I am getting, that's disappointing."
"Helpful professional very pleasant customer service overall. pleased with space. Needed to upgrade very accommodating. Would recommend without question.storage units are very clean. No bugs or insects. Great."
"I have used Uncle Bob's twice, once at the Basile Row facility and once at the Spencer Street facility. If I needed storage in the future, I would choose Uncle Bob's. I always get great service and it's nice that you have a truck available."
