"Excellent customer service experience! I was helped by a guy named Ramesh, and he was able to answer all of my questions in a friendly and professional manner, and was very attentive."
"This is an excellent location. We've been here renting a storage for about 4 months. The Front desk attendant is nice and professional and help us secure a second storage right at closing! Thanks again."
"Brandon and Tyler were very helpful in helping us with a moving truck. Unfortunately the people who had it before us hadn't turned in the key so we had to reschedule but they made it real easy for us to do so and explained the policies in detail to ensure no miscommunication. Thanks!"
"I've had a great experience working with Brandon and Tyler! They helped me have piece of mind on my moving day. Thank you and I will definitely work with you guys again 😊"
"I have used Life Storage last few years...the customer service is SPECTACULAR and they are very friendly and CustomerxService is unmatched! Rene is the absolute best. Always here to explain and is very thorough. A definite gem!"
"This location is the best! I was worried I wouldn't make it on time get the van to move. The store manager stayed at closing time to make sure I had the van and storage secured... even turned out to be less that what I was quoted over the phone and plus had the 1st month free! Thanks for great service !"
"Let me count the ways...
1. Cut my lock off and didn't inform me for several days
2. Locked me out of a unit because their Bank said I paid but their system didn't
3. Mailed in a payment....it was returned by the post office ..."business moved..no fwding address" it was the correct address and they were still there
4. Held a payment for several days until it was late"
"Easy check-in. Clean facilities. Dabriel was very helpful! Bring a copy of your homeowners declaration page unless you want to pay for a month of insurance 😕🤷♀️"
"DO NOT have furniture shipped here! Got over $5000 worth of furniture delivered there today and it’s now stolen! They do not have good communication between FedEx at all! FedEx will literally just drop your packages off in front of the office and drive off!"
"I’ve experienced some of the best customer service of any kind at this location. Dabriel helped me make my move much easier than it would have been without her ability to make it happen. Friendly and helpful even after hours. I highly recommend this location for any storage and moving needs. If there was a six star rating I’d give all 6. Thank you Dabriel."
"My daughter rented the storage and I rented the van I did not think that it was going to be that big a maid's job so easy it only took one lower for one bedroom apartments the people were so friendly in the office the Nigerian lady was so nice I would recommend anybody to rent for them I'll give them five star"
"I have stored stuff for over then years thru several name changes. I am getting frustrated with their changes in late fees. Instead of being a fixed rate it is now a percentage of your unit rent. I have several units the same size with different rates. Even though they have security my units have been vandalized several times since I have been there. I sometime wait until the 5th to avoid late fees. Until recently if I paid before 12am online I would not incur a late charge. Now I am told online payments have to be made before 6 pm our time to avoid late fees being assessed. A written or verbal notice of these changes would have been greatly appreciated since I am a long term customer."
"Cuando tome un storage con ustedes, me atendieron muy bien, ahora les diré., la remodelación del cemento apesta, los tipos del cemento están perdiendo tiempo en buscar tesoros o pretroleo o que díablos, veo que son peor que tortugas le está llevando demaciado tiempo."
"Dabriel was amazing, she was so patient with my two kids and I. She walked me through everything I needed to know. The space was more than enough to fit all my things."
"Would 100% NOT recommend storing anything important here. I store one of our cars here in between finding a house and we had a family member who ended up needing the vehicle this weekend through next week. So we go up there to get it and low and behold they started a huge construction project WITHOUT SAYING ANYTHING to ANY of the tenants. I asked the manager if they would pro-rate our rent for the month for as long as this took and she immediately said no "because technically your vehicle is stored". Could not have been more useless and unhelpful. As soon as this is done I am removing my vehicle and never renting from them again. Terrible business practice, you have to let your customers know before you do a huge construction project that completely removes access to your units you rent out. What a freaking joke this situaiton is."
"Louise was very kind and helpful in assisting me with my move in. The original unit wasn’t big enough for me to put in all my things, and she was very quick to find me a bigger one at a good price. Would visit again!"
"It was ok until, someone burnt down one unit then spreaded throughout, they didn't pay for us to move our things, had to get a truck and new storage all at my expense, SMH!"
"Louise is goes above and beyond her job to make sure you feel welcomed and right at home! She greets and welcomes anyone merely coming in to store their items ! Had the best experience with her! And customer service and being treated with respect at places I am spending money at is of the most importance !dHappy to switch from the Katy location ."
"I made an in store reservation around noon time today when I was advised by Tamir when I come in for 4:30 the rental would be due for return between 4:30 - 9 on next day, she also explained about the $100 deposit and $19.95 rental and $19.95 collision, so when I returned to pick up the van after checking mileage and about to drive off that's when she tells me the van is due back in the morning which totally caught me off guard, she did not explain the rentals are in 6 hour interval slots, this put me in a very bad position considering the time constraint emergency situation I'm in, had she explained to me about this earlier I would have made different arrangement."
"This location is the WORST. I have photos of my storage in a horrible condition in which I didn't leave it in. It's like the ceiling completely fell down and all of my bedding got ruined. I paid my bill including late fees!!! show up with my movers and there was still a lock on my storage. Talk about a waste of money and inconvenience!"
"Customer service was great and renting was fast and easy... but there were some concerns in the fact that a few of the spaces were really damaged (like fire or someone broke in) please take consideration when deciding on this location for storage services."
"Folks, as you read thru these dozens of bogus reviews wondering if you should rent from Life Storage. Just think about this- all these bogus reviews which ALL mention the employee by name, is essentially a fraud, you might even say, a lie- FALSE, DECEPTIVE, ILLEGAL ADVERTISING.
But this is essentially an advertisement for Life Storage. They want to look good. That's understandable. Unfortunately, if YOU are paying attention, and you start to think to yourself- these reviews are odd. For instance, why do 100% of them include the employees first name? Think to yourself-, do I want to do business with a company that lies to me to get my business. That's for you to decide."
"Louise was very professional and helped me to get set up with all of my storage needs. She was able to answer all of my questions and I really appreciate all of her help!"
"coming in the self storage looking for a space last minute. Louise was such great help. The space I reserved was not big enough, so last minute she stay after operating hrs to help me pick a unit big enough for my items, with absolutely no problem!. I really appreciate her customers service skills"
"The staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. Louise was great! She made me fell welcomed and appreciated as a customer. I would definitely recommend this location to others!"
"Sometimes you cant find the right words to express admiration and appreciation for a person, and Jason is the best. He went above and beyond to make sure I was taken care of. Everything was so perfect, Jason was a blessing to me. If you dont know what a blessing is, read this review and youll know."
"We were affected by the fire. I cannot say enough about all the people who contacted me, worked with me (and my husband) in dealing with oh so much that has to transpire in dealing with the aftermath. I cannot , and I repeat CANNOT REPEAT HOW WELL AND HOW SMOOTHLY everything went through this incredibly stressful time!"
"My Westheimer unit was near the fire. When I had to come in 3 times to take care of my belongings, trash, move out; the contractors were extremely helpful along with staff to assist at that difficult time. They loaded (with my son), held out the big trash bags, offered every courtesy."
"I love the service and attention I receive when I come in. The associate greets me by name without looking at the system, and is always friendly. I'm treated like family not just a customer."
"Don't ever store anything here!! My unit and many others where broken into the first month I was there. I got an email the next week to inform me! Good thing I have large furniture that they didn't want to steal. One month later i saw my Life Storage store on the 5 o'clock news bc it had a huge fire. They called me a few days later.. I had to pay for movers to get my furniture out so they could clean up. When I got there with my movers the front door was busted and the staff was on the phone with the police bc they where robbed the night before."
"The staff here is so great and caring. There was a fire here but the manager and other employees took good care of me. They had people working there helping me sort through my items. They took the stress off my shoulders. I am super appreciative."
"I am so grateful for the love I experience when my items got affected by the fire. I was so sad but the help I got made me feel so much better. I will recommend life storage any day and anytime."
"I wish I didnt have to move out because these people really care about their customers. Thanks for the massive help you all gave during this trying time."
"The only complaint is that sometimes the door lock to enter my building section does not accept the code at the first trial. I have to do it two or three times until it unlocks. Thank you."
"A fire occurred in our storaaguit building. All Life Storage was interested in was 1) us getting our stuff out so they could start renovations, 2) documenting to protect their liability, 3) did we have insurance with them. No assistance in moving to another facility, no assistance in getting our stuff out even with air mover tubes, equipment and workers with masks everywhere. Zero customer concerns, all about get your stuff out. No information on what started the fire and possible negligence."
"Recently was unable to access my storage unit for 2 after driving an hour to get there.
I don't appreciate not being told in advanced about the closure."
"I think it's wrong that this place adds fees up to $50 or more a month if you are a little late on your payment. This should be waivable especially if you have been a customer fit a extended period of time. Other places will work with you and this location does not at all. Something needs to change. My storage isn't but $70 a month and fees are almost the same amount. I have 3 kids and one income so the money has to stretch. They need to be more understanding period."
"Excellent customer service. Louise was very professional and knowledgeable. I can't remember the last time I have received such great customer service. The facility is neat, looks well taken care of. I will boldly recommend this location to anyone needing a storage unit."
"You did exceed my expectation...quite a comely and attentive Store representative...i immediately felt safe and i couldn't ask for more...it's already been weeks now and i'm so glad i chose Life storage in this location and not forgetting a good deal with one free month. A big thank you!"
"Such a great experience, Louise was great, she called me like as I was 3 min away. She made this experience quick and easy. If you need a storage space come see Louis."
"Was a great place for over a year except
My storage and several others were recently broken into and I found my unit with a new lock could not get into, and with the metal busted. Will investigate more during open office hours."
"Ummm... wth? Where is Cynthia? She has been so helpful since day one. I came in Tuesday and the lady behind the desk - Im guessing the new manager was rude, inconsiderate, obnoxious and just didnt seem too interested in helping me. I am moving my valuable belongings to wherever Cynthia is. That lady needs to take a training course on how to treat people. So, rude."
"I just love the young lady who helped me. She was awesome and extremely intelligent. I will come please keep her on. Board for she will bring you many clients."
"Having never had to use a storage facility I didn't really have any expectations but your employees were very assuring of security and cleanliness and the whole experience was quite impressive from the beginning to the end. Always pleasant! Keep up the good work across the board!"
"I was very happy that I didn't have to worry about rodents or insects the entire time I had my items in storage. I really appreciated being able to pay online as well. I would use Uncle Bob's Storage again if I ever needed storage in the future. Thanks."
"At the time I was in a rough spot (post divorce) and needed a place to "hold my stuff" until I could get settled. Well it was years later before I was able to get rid of the use for my storage but I am grateful that Uncle Bob's [Life Storage] was there, nice and convenient for me and most importantly kept my stuff safe for me until I was ready to make the next step. Thank you....everyone has been super nice and the place was always immaculate! "
"Both times I went in to speak to an associate, she wasn't there and it was past the time indicated she'd be back. Lunchtimes should be a specific timeframe to prevent this. The original space I was given had stuff in it."
"The manager there went above and beyond to get my storage and checked on the truck that was at another property to make sure it was ready for me to pick up to get my things moved to storage.She was very nice and handle her business very well."
"We have been storing our household items at Uncle Bob's for a little over a year. We recently had a concern with our storage units. The assistant manager on site worked hard to correct the situation. The District Manager called us to follow up on our concern and to make certain that the problem was corrected to our satisfaction. He respectfully listened and responded by offering us a partial refund on our previous month rent. Uncle Bob's customer service is exemplary. We will continue to use them with confidence and will not hesitate to recommend them."
"I have rented two units, several months apart, and both times I had wonderful experience with Nicole. She handled things very efficiently and professionally but I most appreciated her friendly manner! I have had to call Nicole several times with questions and to update my billing info and she has been very helpful to me. What an ideal employee to have when dealing with us - stressed out by moving - so calm and reassuring!"
"I have never used storage previously and chose this location and your company because of the positive online reviews. The staff at the location were genuinely helping me both on the phone with my initial inquiry and in person."
"Customer service at it's finest! I was greeted promptly and treated very kindly. Cynthia is so sweet and thoroughly explained everything to me. I will refer all my friends and family here. "
"The representative offered a bigger space after inquiring into my belongings. She showed me the space, and allowed me to make the decision without being aggressive. Both representatives were friendly, and very helpful. "
"As mentioned in the survey. Your empoyees are always kind and professional. Keep up the good work. I also like the way they are cautious about giving out tennant's secure information. Good job!!!"
"I reside in Fort Worth and deal with the folks at Uncle Bob's in Houston only by telephone and through the mail. In every instance where I have had a need to communicate with the staff at Uncle Bob's they have been extremely courteous and helpful. I am totally satisfied with the service provided by Uncle Bob's."
