"I have never had to rent a storage space so I didn't know what to expect. I was super happy with the price and the readiness of the space as I set up the registration just before I moved to town. The location is really convenient in regards to the place where I'm living for the next few months, and I'm thankful."

"I recently dropped off some items in my unit and there was a crew putting new black top on the storage grounds and they made sure I had access while they were working and took pride in showing me how flat they made the old bumpy path. Nice to see! Also anytime I needed help I have been assisted quickly with a smile."

"I have rented from here for almost 2 decades. I would prefer if we didn't get threatened with a lean and/or lock out before a month is past due. I know this is a business but people have unique situations too. I feel more like a valued customer if I'm not stalked for a payment that is late less than a full month. Other than that, I love the place! "

When we were moving some things out of our unit, the office manger came by to see if all was okay and even brought us some water because it was a hot day. If we should need a unit again i would call Uncle Bob's first, Thank you. Valerie"
