We are a lifetime local family owned and operated business, so we take pride in storing your items. 
But you'll find not all facilities are created equal. So we put together a checklist of check points for you in your search for a storage facility.

The following check points below should be absolute musts that a facility is offering you.

We are proud to say both our facilities offer all these important items listed below and more :-) 
  • Accessibility: How easy is it to access your unit? Look for wide aisles, clear markings, and convenient loading areas. 
  • Security: Check for security cameras, gated access, completely fenced with asphalted surfaces
    as well as being well-lit for your safety. 
  • Unit size: A choice a multi unit sizes that can comfortably fit your belongings. 
  • Cleanliness: Inspect the facility and individual units for cleanliness
    and overall condition.Stay away from facilities with tall
    bordering grass this is a future mice
    issue waiting to occur.
  • Reviews and reputation: Look for RECENT reviews from other customers to gauge
    their experience with the facility. 
  • Drive-up access: This feature allows you to pull your vehicle directly up to your
    unit for easier loading and unloading. 
  • Pricing: Compare pricing across different facilities to find the best value. 
    Beware of facilities that advertise
    1st month free or first few months discounts.
    Standardly that means you will be
    paying more per month after the discount ends.
    (This is the oldest trick in the playbook
    with storage facilities)

  • Climate control: If you're storing sensitive items, consider a
    climate-controlled unit to protect against temperature fluctuations. 
We hope these tips help you in search for a
location to store your items. We would consider
it a compliment to our facilities if you choose us :-)
