Tina was amazing from the day I moved in to the day I left the facility I was treated with respect and kindness. She went above and beyond to make sure I was satisfied at all times. I was definitely suggest this location to anyone looking for storage in Norfolk. Five start"
"I really hope this finds the right person. Today I was at my unit on Brambleton Ave in Norfolk. When I was leaving, my car got stuck in the snow. I had a lunch appointment and a medical presentation to give so began to panic a little. Your employee, Tina literally dug me out of the snow and helped me maneuver my vehicle. I was beyond floored at her willingness to go above and beyond and help me with something like this. I hope she is recognized for this. I can't thank her enough."
"The customer service was exceptional. I don't regularly leave Google reviews but you made such an impression on me that I did in fact leave one this time! Thank you for making things so easy and being so kind to me in a time of high stress. XO"
"Patricia is an excellent representative at the Norfolk, Brambleton Ave. location. Always pleasant and helpful, and seems to take pride in assisting customers and meeting their needs."
"Always great service. Tina and staff always go the extra mile. My overall experience with Uncle Bobs [Life Storage] (not just this store) has been so positive I don't mind spending my money because I know they care about their business and customers. 5 stars w/o a doubt"
"I believe it's Tina who helps always as well as the other in the fact that when I mistakenly leave my storage open I am promptly called to the fact! Awesome service such is that!"
"While I understand payment policy, I would appreciate a call when my account is delinquent instead of just telling me AFTER the unit has already been locked."
"Uncle Bob's is very covenant and very affordable customer service is great. I was paying way to much for another storage in my local area, and the decision to go with Uncle Bob's made up for it."
"The manager has been very helpful in meting our needs and granted our request to be close to the door. We have rented an additional unit because of the great service."
"Tina and Patricia were more helpful than associates at other storage facilities. Your rates are good and the new facility is very appealing. I'd recommend Uncle Bob's [Life Storage] based on my experience."
"An associate at another storage facility called on our behalf to allow us 24 hour access so we could move our items because we were using their truck. Our own storage facility's rental truck was out being serviced. We did not ask that associate to do that. She went above and beyond. She was from the Central Avenue storage facility. Thank you. "
"Although I had to wait for service, it was because the site manager was at lunch and it appears that she was the only one working. I don't blame her for eating! The office and storage spaces were clean and well maintained; the office even smelled clean! Much better than I expected. The price was very reasonable and the entire experience was very positive. I would definitely recommend this facility."
"the people are great especially the manager. she is always eager and happy to see me.every time i go in i feel like its not just a business thing but a freindship because of the friendly enviroment and people that work there."
"Great service, there is some construction going on, there was some fencing down, so i was alittle concerned about people just walking in to the facility."
"I have been storing with Uncle Bob's for quite some time. Staff there is amazing. I recommend Uncle Bob's to all my family and friends who needs storage space. The office staff makes me feel like I am not just an ordinary customer, but a part of the Uncle Bob's family. They are very courteous Especially Mrs. Tina. She goes the extra mile to accommodate her customers to ensure their full satisfaction. I would never consider storing with anyone else except Uncle Bob’s storage. I would like to thank Uncle Bob’s for the customer service I receive from Mrs. Tina, and the rest of the staff at 1213 E Brambleton Ave. "
