I want to say that Rick Hensel, is one of the nicest, honest, and genuine Managers I've had the honor of working with. It was simple, and since I had a busy day, he had me in and out within 15 minutes.
Also, if you're military, and in transition, they have great discount rates for Active Duty personnel!"

"OUTSTANDING customer service. Rick is the BEST !!
I have used this location before and was beyond please that I referred it to my friends and family."
"Rick Hensel was very helpful with me getting my daughter's belongings from storage since so that I can transport them to Messiah University. I drove 5 hours from out of state to arrive at the storage facility so I was a bit tired. As we approached the gate to enter the storage area, I had problems entering the code to open the gate. Rick came out of the office and approached my vehicle with a smile and stood there while I entered the code and he patiently waited until I was successful in my several attempts.
During my daughter's last semester we had a problem with a previous storage facility so I switched to this location. I am so thankful I made the change because the staff (Rick Hansel) is always helpful and friendly. Through our conversations I found out that Rick and I have a mutual vacation area - CAPE MAY, NJ.
Thanks again for such professional and courteous service!!!!"

"We've been impressed with the customer service at the Salem Road location as well as the amenities available to us while storing our personal belongings there. When we first arrived, the Associate Store Manager, David Manns, was very helpful and friendly, detailing what we needed to do on our first time visit. Other things we like about Life Storage: the climate controlled storage units, it's well lit and easily accessible, even on the 2nd floor units due to carts located by the double entry doors, surveillance cameras, the extra hours of availability to suit our schedules, ability to create an easy to remember entry code, and the "special" at that time which allowed us to utilize their moving van at no cost (we paid for gas over X # of miles) which still was a major savings for us. We feel confident in our decision to entrust our personal belongings to this facility!."
"Rick the store manager is very friendly and helpful. I came in to ask some questions about storage and he really went beyond what I would expect. He takes such good care of the facility and its clear he knows what he is doing. Highly recommend this facility!"
"I used Life Storage during the quarantine of 2020. I was transitioning houses but then COVID. The staff was super friendly and helpful. It was almost like keeping my stuff at my grandparents house. Facility is open to users 24/7. You just need your code and your key. I have now entered into my new home and vacated my space. Closing my storage space was a breeze. I just walked in told them I was moving out and they closed it right on the spot. They even congratulated me and was happy to have me go. Cant say enough good things. I would recommend Life Storage to anyone in the area of Mechanicsburg or farther if you dont mind the drive. This place was great"
"When I realized that all of our belongings were not going to fit in the new apartment, I had to find a storage unit quick to store the overflow. One was available at Life Storage, not too far away, the rental process went quickly and easily so that I could get the extras stored that day,
Access to the unit is easy and the facilities are clean and dry"
"I have used Life Storage for several years. The service is outstanding in every respect. The facility is clean, safe and secure. I especially appreciate the 24-hour access to my climate controlled unit. The customer service standards of the staff leave nothing to be desired. Life Storage is clearly a 5-Star operation. So happy I found this place!"
"Tha staff was very helpful in the moving in & moving out process. I had 2 units an inside 5×10 & a parking spot in the back. I have NO complaints & would use & recommend this place for anyone's storage needs."
"Exceptionally clean, looks brand new. Great friendly staff familiar with the area. Site was pretty quiet walked me thru putting in my code for the 1st time. Let me go and inspect the unit b4 purchase. Couldnt been better experience."
"David was so helpful, even though no unit was available in the size I needed, he suggested another Life Storage. I was able to get what I needed because of David. Thank you so much for all your kindness and help."
"Rented a rear lot from them, the price seemed competitive and they were polite and easy to get setup with, about 15 minutes. Paying online was convenient. When it came time to cancel I called the office, and they sent me a digital cancellation form right to my inbox that I signed in a web browser. Super sweet. I plan on renting from them again if the need arises."
"Needed a place to store our brand new travel trailer. In our search Life Storage popped up and we are so glad it did, it’s exactly what we were looking for. Close to where we live, in the price range we wanted to pay monthly, clean very secure and very friendly and helpful staff. Would highly recommend."
"I have been using Life Storage for three years now. The storage facilities are excellent and clean. I also stored vehicle at Life Storage.
