"My job required a storage unit for and for the past 6 years, I’ve used Life Storage Mechanicsburg. I’ve always been very happy as a customer here. The manager is great and always willing to help, there is a dumpster if needed and the online portal makes it easy to pay/view my bill every month! Will continue to recommend this place to others!"
"In regards to David Manns:
A complete and professional disposition, extremely welcoming, and informative. A people-person and gives a sense of really enjoying his job. He made my enrollment in Life Storage, a pleasurable experience. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking to store their items."
"Nick is extremely helpful. I walked in and he immediately greeted me with a smile. He asked me if I needed anything else and let me know about some of the other services they offer - he also let me know how the rental works. Super friendly, helpful but also efficient. Absolutely the perfect person to be in a customer service oriented business."
"Nick is so helpful. Storage units are VERY clean. Climate control like we had is excellent. Worth the money! Firmly recommend this location and Life Storage for all your storage needs. Thanks Nick!"
"Nick (store manager) was awesome to work with while we had multiple units at his location. He was always so courteous to us and actually cared about us, our belongings and experience The facility was very clean we had no issues with any pests. We felt that our belongings were very secure. I'll be recommending him and his location to all friends and family who need storage needs!"
"We have been a customer for three plus years. In the summer of 2018,
we needed some storage space as we were staging our home for sale.
When we told Nick about our plans to sell and relocate to North Carolina
he not only assigned us a unit, but he was so positive and excited about
out future plans that he was a major encouragement to us! We did move
in December of 2019 and returned to collect our belongings the following
December. We were not able to fit everything into the trailer we had rented so Nick quickly scrambled and found us a smaller unit that very day. We left PA very satisfied. Employees like that are rare and we
truly appreciate what Nick brings to Self Storage. We would recommend
them to anyone. Sincerely, Rick & Suzanne Logan"
"Operating the online system is great. But the in person quick confident service from the overall handling of each situation was handled superb. Switching a locker after having one, and the new increased locking system installed quickly. Thank you for keeping our storage safe and providing outstanding quick resourcefulness from the employees. Highly recommend"
"Great staff! I've been a customer for years. I lost my key and needed my lock cut. I called in since it would take two people to do it. Nick and Toya had it done before I even got there!
Then it was suggested that I use a lock that I didn't need a key for. Great suggestion for me; I lose things like keys and cards all the time! They sell different types of locks too so it was a plus that I didn't even have to drive anywhere else to get one.
Really efficient and time saving to have that help and the resources handy for customers.
I am very grateful!"
"LifeStorage in Mechanicsburg PA on Westport Drive was a great place to store my stuff until I could move it all to Topsail Beach NC. There was no damage to anything and it was easy to load and unload. Nick was very friendly and helpful. It’s nice to trust a place that stores your possessions."
"I moved all my items from my apartment into this storage facility and they have been great from the start! They call you if they notice you didnt lock your unit correctly and the staff are always super helpful and friendly! They have great deals and specials on units and moving trucks! I would recommend this place to anyone!!! You will not be sorry!"
"This is a super clean storage facility, we’re using the climate controlled one and have been for four years. Never had a problem and good access every day. The guy at reception is super friendly and helpful and even helped us put stuff in the on-site dumpster."
"Nick is amazing-so thorough-professional-kind-you name it-extremely pleased and will pass the word to use Life Storage-wish all businesses had a Nick!!!’n"
"THIS STORAGE FACILITY IS GREAT. FIRST OF ALL, THE MANAGER, NICK IS SO CONSCIENCE OF THE ENTIRE EXPERIENCE FROM THE CUSTOMERS' POINT OF VIEW. HE KNOWS HOW TO GREET YOU, WHAT YOU NEED IN A STORAGE FACILITY, THINKS OF THE LITTLE THINGS AND IS ABLE TO PROVIDE A COMPLETE MOVE-IN EXPERIENCE ABSOLUTELY PAINLESS AND EASY AND THE PRICE IS VERY FAIR. I AM SO GLAD I'VE CHOSEN LIFE STORAGE HERE ON WESTPORT DR. -- YOU WILL TOO."
"Nick is awesome. Great place. Make yourself sure about the size of the storage you’re getting, because if you transfer it to a different size they won’t give you the same deal. They will ask you to remove everything out of the property and you can get the deal that online. Otherwise you’ll be charged 35-45$ extra a month for transferring to a another size comparing to online pricing . I was charged like this a few months. But other than this it’s a great place, safe and has great people works there"
"My parents used this storage facility while downsizing and said it is the best storage facility they have ever used (and they have used a lot!) They said the management really cares about doing a great job!"
"I agree with all the great things already said by many others. This is a fantastic storage facility and Nick is over-the-top superb. I stored various furniture there in the climate controlled section for about 9 months during a move (the transition was not supposed to take that long, but then COVID-19 arrived...). We rented the moving truck as well, which was great and super easy. I recommend this business without reservation!"
"Nick was extremely courteous, very knowledgeable and helpful when we rented our unit an when we needed to upgrade to a bigger unit gave us the same professional courteous and respectful as when we first dealt with him."
"Excellent experience. I visited this location to see about potential storage. Nick the manager was extremely helpful and professional. I purchased boxes and said I would decide at a later date to rent. Contacted customer service for information several days later. Customer care was very pushy about selling space. If I hadn't had personal contact with local store, I would not have rented from Life Storage. Luke, manager and Tori, assistant manager were the reason I chose Life Storage. I would highly recommend this location and space for rental. Excellent customer service."
"Nick rocks!!! He’s so energetic, friendly, and hard working. He made the process of getting my storage space super simple, so now I can just move my stuff in with no worries. The space is spotless, dry, easy to access, and roomy. I rented a 10 x 15 so I don’t have to worry about making things fit, or squeezing through doors. I’ve rented storage here before, had a great experience, and I’m a return customer."
"The counter person Nick was able to help get a unit set up fast and completely simple it's great being able to just go in at any time to attend to my unit any questions I have ask was explained very simple and with perfect answers"
"This place rocks. Clean, convenient, easily accessible, safe, and reasonably priced. I kept stuff here for maybe half a year, and I always felt safe when accessing my storage space, regardless of the time of day."
"Nick and Tori have a ton of 5 star reviews! Let me add another. We are relocating to Mechanicsburg and needed a large temp space. Most of the storage locations in the area get good reviews so you have to look at the details.
It's hard to list all the excellent services Nick provided. Moving is hard enough, Nick made this part way easier than it otherwise could have been. I tried to get my unit reserved online but couldn't get my preferred date (a Monday) so went a couple days earlier (nearest available Friday). As soon as I made the reservation I got a call from Nick. After talking for a bit he confirmed the size I needed and got me the Monday start and assured me he'd be there to get me checked in. On move day he called again to get an arrival estimate to make sure he'd be there.
When I rolled up with the 20ft uhaul Nick was right there. The paperwork took just a couple of minutes and he explained the high points (and we talked a bit about Mechanicsburg since we're moving in). We confirmed the space requirements and he walked me to the unit. Showed me the how-tos, offered up a dolly, and in no time I was off to turn in the truck.
There are plenty of storage choices in the area. This one is well lit, secure, many size options, climate controlled available, easy access, half mile from a Uhaul, and a very helpful and friendly staff.
You can shop around, do your research, look at google earth and street view, agonize over which storage facility to use, or just call Nick."
"I have had items in this storage facility for a little over a year. Staff were friendly and responsive when I needed them. I had no concerns about storing my belongings here. When I got all of my items out of storage, they called me within a few hours to check to make sure that I had removed my items. Which I appreciated as I hadnt had a chance to call yet. Really shows that they check on the units and ensure your things are secure. Great experience overall."
"I inherited a storage unit, from the previous rep in my role, and I couldn't be happier with the location, access, and staff. Nick and Tori are always welcoming and willing to help out wherever they can. This is a great value!"
"Rented a small storage unit here for about 16 months. It was a great price and location for a nice little unit. I believe the prices recently went up, but I wouldnt hesitate to use them again if I needed to."
"The young man who has been working at this location for the last few years is AMAZING! So professional, helpful, pleasant. Went out of his way to help us find another closer location if we needed to store a few things short term. Made calls, gave new LS Office a pre-introduction to us - I mean he couldn't have done more for us! We will miss his amazing customer service! We hope he has a wonderful life!!"
"Nick has been the best person in this company. He is always here for me regarding any issues and takes care of everything. You should be very proud of your employee, Nick!!! Thank hank you so much Nick for all your wonderful service!!!"
"Most of the storage facilities in the area are highly rated, this one more so. Nick Laynas and his staff really do make something as simple as storage a much better experience than it otherwise could be. Kudos!"
"Nick and all the rest of the staff here are great. Super friendly and helpful. The facility is clean, maintained and secure. Would definitely recommend!"
"Nick, the store manager, was so personable and thorough. He made it a fantastic experience. I am only in need of my storage unit very short term this time, however, I will be using them again in the future for sure. Friendly staff, clean units. Highly recommend."
"Nick went above and beyond in his service for this company. His professionalism, courtesy, kindness and cooperative nature will not soon be forgotten. I was a customer for several years and really came to appreciate his amazing work ethic. I would not hesitate to use Life Storage again! Patricia Hall"

"Conveniently located, clean, and a super helpful and friendly staff. I had a unit for 2 1/2 years and my belongings were well cared for and easily accessible whenever I needed them."
"Im a repeat customer. Ive used Life Storage for a few years, clean, safe, professional. Nick and the gang do an awesome job of taking care of the customer. They are very accessible, and well informed. The customer service they provide is top notch."
"Nick and Lori made the moving an easy experience. They keep the area clean and I feel good about leaving my possessions in their hands. Hope they work in this facility for a long time."
"I worked with Nick at the Mechanicsburg location. He was friendly, helpful and went well beyond what I expected in customer care. I had a sudden change in plan and he made it effortless."
"What an amazing experience. Nick was so great. He listened to what I needed and was able to provide me with several options to look at. He was honest with me about pricing and the deals that were happening throughout the month. He was so personable, professional and fun to work with. He took the stress out of my move. Highly, highly recommended."
"Wow these storage unit are amazing.. I love them ,they can be accessed 24 hours a day. There clean well taking care of .. the office person was very friendly and knowledgeable.. she answers every question I had ..I really knew nothing about storage unit before last week ..she made me feel very comfortable .."
"Nick was very helpful, he showed us the easiest ways to get to our unit as well as made sure we understood everything necessary for our unit. I would definitely recommend this storage place to anyone."
"My man's Nick is the real deal. Friendliest guy in the business. Couldnt have been more helpful with the move in process and renting the truck. Totally worth your business. 6/5"
"Nick was very helpful at the Mechanicsburg Westport location; he was very knowledgeable and accommodating about storing our car at this location for the Winter months. He showed great service skills."
"the staff was honestly extraordinary. Greeted me by name whenever I was there, attended to every question I had, no matter how minor, genuinely cared that my requirements were met without trying to sell me things I didn't need. I will not hesitate to go back when I need extra storage in the future."
"Nick and Kelly make you feel as if you have been a friend for years,even though they just met you. I don't just see it with me, they treat everyone that way. They take the time to answer any questions you have. They don't act as if it's a bother. When I walk in the office, I'm greeted with a big smile from both. Your company couldn't ask for better employees!
"
"Initiated agreement before Life Storage acquisition of Mechanicsburg facility. We were traveling for two years and the acquisition and auto pay continuation was a big concern at the time. We got the notice that all history and auto pay functions would be seemless. This time it turnrd out to be exactly as promised. Closing out the storage required several calls due to our special circumstances buy folks on the phone checked things out, called back as promised, and went off without any hitches. Great experience for usn. Thanks much to all the Mechanicsburg staff."
"Wonderful staff and service! I am a returning customer and could not have been happier with my choice to do so. The facility is well maintained and the staff provided excellent service!"
"The young lady in your office was a wonderful representation for your company. She was extremely knowledgeable, but most importantly, she was eager to help and always wonderfully kind!
The only reason we left is because we now have room in a new townhouse to store our things.
Thank you so very much!
Keep up the amazing work!"
"I have used another storage facility previously and was highly disappointed. I am very impressed with Life Storage. Nick was especially helpful in assisting me in choosing the appropriate sized storage unit. He was friendly and very knowledgeable about the units and I am very pleased with the unit that I chose. He took the time to answer all my questions and I did not feel rushed. Your facility is very clean and that impressed me. I will certainly recommend you to others. "
"We were so impressed with Kelli and Nic??
They were so personable and friendly and most helpful.
Very impressed with staff and facllity and will highly recommend!"
"Nick is such an amazing guy. He is so friendly and makes you feel very welcome. He was very thorough with everything and gave good detail. I felt like we were best friends by the time I left. I look forward to doing business with Nick. Thank you Nick!"
"Your staff are incredibly knowledgeable and friendly! I had originally intended to rent a much smaller unit, as I had never used a storage space before. The associate who assisted me advised that the space I had in mind wouldn't fit my needs, and he helped me find the PERFECT unit. I'm so glad he was willing to take the time and find what would work best for me. "
"Nick, the manager at the mechanicsburg, Westport drive office, went above and beyond. He helped me tape up four large boxes and pack them to send out to fed ex. The boxes were heavy and the packing was time consuming. Thank you Nick for demonstrating great customer service!"
"Everyone was super helpful and the entire storage area was very clean and safe. Thanks so much for everything! I will definitely use you again in the future if I need a storage unit!"
"The staff was exceptionally friendly. I had to upgrade to a bigger size storage unit the same day I was moving everything in. They helped me find a bigger unit and gave 50% off next month's rent! Great customer service"
"The climate controlled units are FANTASTIC!!! I had my belongings in storage for one year and I was able to put them away without the need to dry clean or wash anything."
"I only used the storage facility for a few months but am very satisfied with the facility. It was easy to access the facility even after closing, the gate functioned fine and the unit was always clean and dry."
"Someone recommended your storage units because of the free truck rental. However, we found out that we would not be able to take advantage of the free truck because we were not ready to move in a large load. We are still just moving in car loads."
"This is my first experience renting a storage unit. The staff were caring and helpful; and the facility is super clean, well lit and convenient. I used their truck to bring my things there for no charge and they also have a cargo cart for transporting loads indoors. I really could not feel better about leaving my things at this Uncle Bob's [Life Storage]."
"I was wonderfully surprised and pleased with my experience when I went to put my payment in for my storage space.
The manager walked me right to the unit and all! Now, my move Is this Saturday and I will then have my unit full- hopefully the service and care will continue for the next few months while I keep my belongings with Bob's. if so, No more uhaul storage for me!"
"Staff was fantastic! Unit was exactly what I was looking for and in a great accessible location. Can't say enough about this experience, thanks Uncle Bob!"
"The assistant manager was very polite and attentive to our needs/questions. It was effortless to get our storage space set up and that was quite a relief. thanks."
"The associate who assisted me was extremely helpful and provided prompt assistance. The facilities are also clean and the ability to enter an access code 24/7 is great. Its awesome to know that my belongings are being kept under surveillance when I see the multiple CCTV cameras around."
"They really helped me a lot . They made the whole process VERY easy . They showed me all the extras and specials that were available without me even asking about them . Saved me a lot of money ! Great job !"
"I was blown away by how nice the facilities are. My only complaint is that NO ONE IS EVER THERE DURING OFFICE HOURS. I've called many times and visited many times and only saw 1 person working there that actually helped. I had to call the corporate number for things that could have easily been handled if employees were actually there during office hours. Otherwise good stuff."
"You were able to get me into a storage unit the same day that I inquired about one. Incredibly friendly. I appreciated the walk through of the storage units and the best way to access my personal unit. All the paperwork was explained entirely and to top it off, I got a free pen! I would absolutely recommend this storage unit to anyone who needs one."
"Great job Uncle Bob [Life Storage] storage. So glad you are there. I was very impressed with Dave and his staff. I checked out the location before and had some concerns. That was with the previous owners. So happy when I came back again that Dave was there and that was new management. I actually rented one space and then came back for another. Excellent customer service!"
"Everytime I have gone the office and nice and tidy. I live 1300 miles away and had no problem setting it up that my mom have access to my unit. I wish there was outside air conditioned units though like size 25x30 "
