"Felicia was a huge help with everything I needed and gave personal service whenever needed. She showed me around and explained things clearly. Very clean facility as well!"
"The customer service is wonderful!! I will be using again Ms Falisha on Bush River she went above and beyond for me.. I thank you so much!! Keep up the great work"
"I had a wonderful experience here with Felicia she followed up with me after I made my reservation. She was extremely pleasant and very thorough when explaining pricing and sizing for my unit, she definitely helped me during my moving process on such short notice. Even though moving is a stressful process she definitely makes the process way easier. I definitely recommend coming here and seeing Felicia for a new unit."
"Had a good experience. Galosh’s was really nice and supportive. Made everything easy and quick even took me on the cart to see my unit. Very nice and friendly people."
"Horrible customer service sold me a broken unit then told me I could come in at 5 am got here at 5:15 called immediately when I realized I couldn’t lock my unit the lady wasted 25 mins of my time to put in the emergency request because there is no way a assistant manager not know that he selling a broken unit or giving out false information didn’t even tell me I could hold it for 2 days free when I already told him I still had things to pack up I’m very disappointed in the service I have received along with the call center customer service"
"My experience was great. I went online first to compare prices and Life Storage was the less expensive one for the type of unit I wanted. I spoke to Falisha over the phone and Mark (I think) assisted at the office. Both of them were very nice and helpful throughout the whole process."
"Checked in with Sunny today, she was amazing! She was very friendly and was able to answer all my questions quickly and professionally. I do recommend. The place was clean and secure"
"This storage location is great. It is close to my home and I feel pretty good about my stuff being there. The lady up front is very nice and courteous."
"I haven't been able to move my items yesterday because of out-of-service elevator (which has since been fixed). Since my unit is on 3rd floor, it would be impossible to carry everything up 3 flights of stairs (movers older people - 70+). The mgr. was extremely helpful trying to help me work out a solution to my problem until elevator was fixed. Although I have moved everything to my unit as of yet (to be completed today), I am very impressed with the mgr, Sherry Wilson. She was determined she could work out a solution for me. She was able to do that. Very courteous, kind, determined young woman. I feel we'll have a great relationship in the future. You're very fortunate to have such a manager at the Bush River 29212 site."
"I have been using this storage unit for several months. The store associate manager Falisha have been great. She has been great when my mother passed. She has been doing her job and been a great listener. The unit itself was the perfect size and the price is affordable and better compared to other storage units in the area. I would recommend life storage to anyone needing a storage unit. If I can give more than 5 stars I would."
"Life Storage is Great! Sherry the store manager was the absolute BEST! The prices are more than fair and extremely reasonable. I got more from Life Storage then any other storage company I have ever used. They offer indoor climate control units, as well as outdoor. Not only did she give me a welcome pack with locks included. She also saw the unit I was assigned had a leak. She immediately  moved me to a new unit no questions. The facility Is very secure and super safe. Also a very clean. I am beyond satisfied with the excellent customer service and services provided. I would recommend them to anyone!"

"I was in dire need of a U-haul truck but also needed a storage unit. Â I was able to get all I needed in one spot. Â The manager was so helpful and am very pleased with her input and patience. Â This was an awesome relief to me. Â Thanks for everything!"
"Good customer service at this store ,The manger made sure we were satisfied with the price of storage!! Very polite with good attitude!! Keep up the good work!! If I need to rent a storage again this will be the place I recommend for myself and others!!"
"I went to 5311 Bush River Road inquiring information on a storage unit, and the young lady Falisha answer all my questions, showed me the property and they also have Uhaul. She was extremely helpful. I did do a reservation and will be back next week. Thank you"
"I rented a uhaul very last minute from this location. I was able to reserve the uhaul I needed despite moving on a weekend and renting the truck the night before I needed to pick it up. I chose to do the mobile pick up because I wasn't sure if anyone would be able to help me since it was so close to closing, but an associate called me in advance of my pickup time, made sure I knew what to do, and then even let me do the pickup in the office to ensure that everything went smoothly. Felicia, the associate, was also there when I returned the truck the next morning. She was excellent, personable and competent, and made the experience a good one. I've never worked with life storage before but now I'll definitely keep them in mind and recommend them in the future!"
"Very Sharp management staff. Help me register and online pay.
I was out state and needed to get this done before I arrive at end of the month as the movers were already scheduled. Many thanks to Mrs. Felicia? Talked with a few times by phone...have never been there during office hours. THANKS AGAIN."
"Ms. Felisha at the Bush River location is awesome, she’s very patient and kind. I am currently doing a military move and I am so thankful that I chose this location to store my things. I have moved many times and I can truly say that the customer service at this location is genuine. They truly do all that they can to help you."
"I made reservations to rent a pickup that was not returned to the store. When I got there the cashier was trying to send us around the world to get another. Inconvenient to my gas and travel. The first time I have ever seen my husband go off he was so mad. Then supervisor gave us another truck for same price as compensation. Organization and customer service needs work"
"Falisha was extremely pleasant, communicative and helpful. She is a wonderful representative of Life Storage. The facility is clean and secure. We had a lovely experience!"
"Man, I cannot express how easy and nice it was working with Falisha. I’ve used many storage facilities before but the online reservation and how pleasant Falisha is makes this one of the best. She followed up to confirm with a phone call and even called us back when we lost connection. I’d recommend coming here for any of your storage needs."
"Sherry answered all my questions and was very thorough with explaining things. When I went to my unit it was very clean. I highly recommend this location. Thanks again for outstanding customer service."
"First time renting a storage unit. I thought the process was going to be long. Falisha had me in and out. She explained everything quickly but thoroughly enough so that I understood everything. Prices are reasonable and my unit can be accessed easily."
"Life Storage on Bush River Rd Columbia SC..... there are not enough adjectives to say how efficient, professional and kind these folks are. Specifically, Falisha Oats, the Associate Store Manager went above and beyond the norm to assist us in getting temporary storage for our 21 foot travel trailer. I would definitely recommend them! Even if you are just having a bad day, her upbeat and winning smile will lift your spirits so drop by!"
"I feel very comfortable having my items in Life Storage. Felicia is EXCELLENT and offers great customer service. Her professionalism and attitude has made this process easy and warm. The storage is clean and well-kept. Thanks so much!"
"First of all a lot of the bad reviews state the required insurance, when I moved here I called all of the top rated storage facilities and they all required insurance so I'm not sure why so many people are upset about this, it's only 10 bucks and worth it in my opinion, they are still one of the cheapest storage facilities I've found with good ratings and good security. Sherry is the gal that got my unit set up. Me being brand new to this side of the country, was nervous about interacting with people because I know it's a totally different culture here and I really didn't know what to expect. I've been here a month now, sherry and falisha have still been the most friendly people I have interacted with thus far. Sherry is very personable and professional. The agent on the phone told me the kind of lock I needed which I already had so I brought it with me. I told sherry I didn't need to purchase a lock and she informed me that I would need a different type of lock for my unit, since I was given the wrong information she loaned me a set that I will give back when I am done, no charge (I wasn't upset at all or showed any form of unhappiness about the lock she just did it). Also, every time I've came to my unit I've seen falisha walking through the hauls working and every single time, she greets me with the biggest smile and asks how I'm doing and if I'm still pleased with the unit and service. In all the storage units I've gone through which is A LOT from the west coast mid west and now here) this is by far the best one I've experienced. I couldn't ask for better customer service and friendlier staff."
"Falisha Oats and Sherry Wilson are both great and very knowledgeable to deal with. They made my experience a pleasant one and I would recommend this location to others."
"Felecia takes care of the business! I needed a storage unit short notice and she made it happen! Great Customer Service! Did I mention FIRST MONTH FREE!! Life Storage is the way to go!"
"I had the most wonderful experience with this storage company. These people know what customer service is all about. Sheri was the store manager, of whom I had the pleasure of receiving my storage unit, courteous service and great conversation. It is a very rare thing today, to receive good customer service. This is the reason for my 5 stars. Thankyou Sheri."
"I would like to personally thank Ms. Falisha for all her help. I contacted the location and was undecided, she made sure she assisted me in making a sound decision. Falisha is very professional and her personality is absolutely amazing. You can tell that she takes pride in helping her customers with all of their concerns. Thanks Falisha!"
"Falisha Oats did a great job of setting up out storage locker. She went above and beyond what I expected. The facility is really clean and well maintained with good physical security.
I was not happy about the mandatory insurance coverage since the value of my stuff probably rates self coverage."
"I want to recognize Ms. Felicia. I can’t thank her enough for all her assistance. She went above and beyond and always receptive to my needs. The facility is spotless and well maintained. Absolutely the most professional run storage facility I ever used. Job well done."
"Felicia went above and beyond! I cannot even begin to say, just how incredibly thankful I am! She provided EXCEPTIONAL customer service. She truly cares about YOU as a customer, and not just as another space #. You don't find the kind of customer service she provided anymore, and I don't say that lightly. If you need a storage unit, come see Felicia, she is amazing. Thank you again for everything!"
"Those two girls break the ice during difficult time. I am having to move out of my house due to Covid and lost of income. They knew I was on the verge of tears. Love this location!"
"The ladies at this location are awesome! My move in process went pretty smooth. They are funny and full of jokes. I smiled and laughed the entire time. Keep up the good work!"
"In all of my years owning my own company and hiring employees, the two young ladies really made this transition pleasant. You can tell they have pride working for Life Storage because it really shows. Thank you."
"The manager Falisha is so awesome!!!! I have had a bad experience at another storage company....and that manager was rude! So I decided to come here and came with alot of questions....She had patience and me me feel like my service was wanted! Btw....the storages are clean and spacious!!!!!!! Glad I came here!"
"Falisha and Sherry are absolute ANGELS! Our apartment flooded at Ashland commons and things were a nightmare until I ended up at life storage for our stuff. These two ladies have been such a pleasure helping us get the right size unit to fit all of our stuff in such short notice. If you need a storage unit and you don’t come here then you messed up!!"
"I thought renting a unit was going to be a long process. But to my surprise it wasn't long at all. I think what helped me out the most was making small talk with the females. They made my rough morning much better."
"Thank you for your patient because I couldn't make up my mind what size unit I needed. Your kindness and humor through that was great ! Best management ever !"
"Needed a place to just store my junk. But I got so much more. The manager is super nice and helped me pick out the perfect unit. This isnt a place of storage its a second home for your extra stuff!!!"
"This facility has great prices and excellent care of the facility - in fact it is just about to open a new indoor facility. The manager, Sherry Wilson, is really helpful and wants to make sure your needs are met.
Overall a great place."
"These days good customer service can be hard to find, but the manager here, Sherry, was wonderful and I would recommend this place for anyone's storage needs!"
"the construction work I felt really discouraged but after meeting Sherry she made me feel so comfortable that all my worries disappeared. Very pleased with her service!"
"This area is getting a great face lift ! I'm excited to see the new section ! The manager is the sweetest women and she took care of all my needs ! Great experience !"
"Had a great experience with Life Storage. I parked my RV here and never worried about it. I knew it was safe and I had access any time and was able to move my RV in and out with out too much trouble. Will recommend to my other RV folks."
"The young lady there, Sherry, was so extremely helpful. She has a lot going on with renovations happening and she still went above and beyond to help me. That's customer service !"
"These are very nice people! I had an easy transaction with professional courtesy and where so very helpful! Made me feel I was being well taken care of!"
"Aaron was very polite and friendly.the atmosphere was welcoming.i would recommend this place to some one else...and they let me use the moving van free or charge..jusx because I rented the space."
"Uncle Bob's facility is exactly what I needed. Jeanine (I'm not sure if I've spelled this correctly), the manager of this location, was very helpful. She was thorough with all paperwork, explanation of the facility and guidelines of renting. "
"Having used other storage facilities in the past, this was a pleasant surprise. The staff, especially Sherry, were extremely helpful, cordial and friendly. "
"Truly is a one stop shop I got refered by another storage company and when I arrived Brandon made the process so fast sweet and simple had me in out with in minutes since I was in a rush time was of the essence for me at the moment he even put me in the truck for Free gr8 service "
"Was given a unit with a drilled out lock. Was given a tab to put on the hasp to secure it. Had to leave items unsecured due to the tab being incorrect.
Was also told that I would be able to use the box truck to move in. I reserved the truck, but my reservation was not honored. Had to make multiple trips in personal vehicles to move items into storage costing me extra time and money."
"Generally I think the service is fine. However during the summer the asphalt was repaved and someone took a blower and blew dust and debris under and over the doors of my storage unit, thus making a hugh mess that had to be cleaned up inside the unit. Some decorative items were soiled badly. The doors should have been shielded form such actions."
"This was the best experience ever with a storage facility and it was due to the personnel being so helpful and working with me and my needs. The facility was clean and I felt safe and so glad to see it was bug free and clean everytime I came. Thank you for such a good storage facility and hiring the best in personnel. I highly recommend Uncle Bob's [Life Storage]!"
"I did not have a good experience. I believe that the service was Overpriced and I did not appreciate the staffs attitudes and inappropriate responses to certain situations. The Area Manager Did help me but I believe that the staff there needs some serious extended training in customer service."
"Particularly pleased with the service I received when I had to relocate my boat from one space to another. The Bob's associate worked with me for a half an hour or more trying different alternatives until the new spot worked out perfectly. "
"You helped me decide what size I really needed. And since I already have 2 units with you (I was getting a 3rd to store my college student's belongings for the summer) you graciously let me use a coupon that saved me 50% on 2nd month rent."
"The staff, especially Sherry was awesome and always willing to help. Sherry always made me feel comfortable anytime I had a question or concern. I would highly recommend you guys...and already have"
"The manager at the Bush River Rd location was THE reason I rented there. She was very up front and helped me with what I wanted to. She gave me a great deal and even provided with a lock (which I returned). If every manager were this good, every space would be filled always."
"I live out of town so it is very important to me to know that the things in my unit are safe. Every time I am in the area and check on my unit, it is always very clean and secure"
"I had the most incredible experience as a customer of Uncle Bob's [Life Storage]. The manager, Sherry was simply marvelous all around.
Thank you for an awesome experience!
Sandra :)"
