"Hello,
I have been with Life Storage in Chesapeake for years. My experiences have been great. They really work with you and care about their costumers well being.
Mrs. H. Wright"
"The manager (Ms. Dalschultz) was absolutely amazing! She helped me with all of my needs, recommended some corporate implementations to save my company money, and was incredibly thorough. Thank you SO much, this was a great experience!"
"7/9/22 , Dale is awesome , super helpful, super informative. Made my entire move extremely easy and saved me money! This definitely the place for college students looking for some extra space to assist in their move for college"
"While relocating to the Hampton Roads area, I searched online for a storage facility and happened across Life Storage in Chesapeake. I reserved the storage unit and within about 20 mins Ms. Dale M. Schultz, Multi-Store Manager contacted me to let me know she received my reservation. She is so pleasant! She answered my questions and when it became apparent that I had different storage needs than what I reserved, she offered to help me find a sister property that met my needs.
I thanked her and she gave me her customer service philosophy that resonated with me: customers can spend their money anywhere and they choose to come to where she works, the least she could do is be kind, helpful. Further, "without customers she wouldn't have a job".
Due to other responsibilities, I needed to call back on the weekend and she was just as kind, helpful, welcoming (even giving me a mini geography lesson about the area after I explained that the Chesapeake Bay Bridge tunnel scares me) despite the fact that I was not coming to her property.
I highly recommend working with Dale at Life Storage at Chesapeake. Her disposition cuts down on some stress related to moving."
"06/21/2022 amazing service! Came in to pay for my storage and walked out with amazing conversation, advice, etc. Quality people who care about your time, personal items and money! Highly recommend!!"
"June 6th 2022. I'm here at life storage and the service that I received here was so tremendous I just wanted to give them a 5-star rating and thank them for all they did for me. Dale and Lori are great."
"Mrs. Dale is the most pleasant person, I walked in Life Storage not knowing what size unit I needed, she walked me around the property with ease. She’s the best I would highly recommend Her. 100% customer service."
"Dale was amazing, thorough and polite the entire time. Ensured I made the correct decisions to save me even more money than I was over competitors. Store your stuff here for a sense of comfort and security."
"The nicest lady helped me out this morning and made the whole experience enjoyable and will definitely come back to buy another unit just to talk to her! I think her name is Ms Angie!"
"I came in on February 17th to rent a unit after making an online reservation. Ms. Carol was phenomenal! She was knowledgeable and cracked me up! She is too funny! Anyways, the rental process was quick and Carol made sure I was at ease renting with this Life Storage location & that I knew everything I needed to know! Thanks, Carol for a great experience and good laughs!"
"What a blessing today I came in to move to a smaller unit and only had to pay $14 for my next month's rent. That sure helps me this month this is a wonderful place to rent"
"BIGGEST SHOUT OUT TO Jillian James the manager at this location! I'm in the process of moving and having a bit of bad luck at every turn especially with a lot of other rental facilities and it all of a sudden seemed to stop when I found this place. Jillian was so welcoming, courteous and positive I couldn't help but feel a bit better about doing business here and this part of my move. I can thoroughly tell that she takes pride in her job and makes it a point to be polite as well as helpful which was such a relief. I pretty much was in and out in a short amount of time for 2 units and im even considering a third! I don't know if corporate looks at this, but she should definitely be in charge of all customer based/service training. Thanks Jill for making things easy, and thank you Lifestorage for...hmmm...well for hiring her!"
"Not sure who the young lady was that assisted me. She was very professional let me say again very professional knowledgeable and friendly. Perfect fit for the front desk. Only one thing..I didn't have a dolly or anything to load up my belongings. Very clean and stress less experience. Kudos."
"The lady Jullian that works there is a liar and a con artist. She told my husband and I that the space she gave us was climate controlled but it wasn't and our things got molded. Then she said we would be responsible to have the space cleaned. Of course we called corporate on her and they said they would handle it."
"I LOVE this particular LIFE STORAGE. Im renting from another and their access hours are not efficient enough for me (7a-7p). This location access hours are until 9p which is AWESOME. And Ms. Jillian has the BEST customer service attitude EVER. They are accommodating and will try their best to keep you informed on when spaces are available because they sell out QUICK!"
"This has got to be one of the best storage unit facilities I've ever been to the owner the person that works here they will bend over backwards to do anything for you as a matter of fact I didn't lock my unit the right way you know what they did they called me secured my unit for me until I arrived to do it the right way hands down they are the best"
"Recently acquired a parking spot at Life Storage. Staff was great and made the sign on process effortless. Thanks Jillian, you were friendly and professional."
"Mrs. Carol remembered me from years ago back when I had the storage in 2016. She was just as friendly and happy to serve like before. I was hoping to see her when getting a new unit and was happy she was still employed."
"I went to visit the store to check prices for a friend. I did have to wait an minute while the young lady came to the door. She did apologize for the wait but explained due to COVID extra precautions. Thankfully I was able to see a unit nice set up this rent now so my friend did it all online ! Thanks again foe the time Miss J."
"Amazing customer service. Spoke with the manager and she was extremely helpful and was very friendly. Don't just come here for the great prices! Come here for the exceptional customer service!"
"Amazing customer service! The manager was very friendly and made sure I got the best deal and service. Their prices are unbeatable and their service is the best! Strongly recommended!"
"Jillian was the best, she assured me with all my questions and concerns with my storage unit... Her customer service is bar none, a asset to your company and business, she makes life easy for all the customers that visited especially during this pandemic .... Keep her onboard your team and you'll be successful business for future ventures"
