We are moving to northern Alabama from out of state. The storage center is the first business I've interacted with in Alabama and what an amazing first impression! Cindy and her staff are amazing! They have been incredibly helpful throughout our move and Cindy has earned a long time customer. Whenever I need storage I won't bother to look anywhere else. The prices are great, the facility is very clean, the building is secure with CCTV & access control, and the climate control is perfect. What more could you ask for? ... Read more

We were able to walk right in and get the storage room of our choice in little to know time. We were assisted by Cindy who was professional and showed us the units and assisted us with obtaining a lock and the proper documents. We were able to take advantage of the online special at the counter too. I would recommend Storage Center to anyone in the area who need affordable, reliable, climate controlled storage. ...

It was great at first kevin helped out a lot and he was fast. My issue is that it says the office is open at 10am, and no one is here at that time. It’s very unprofessional and inconvenient for no one to be at the facility when we need help in regards to our storage. I called the customer service and all the lady had to say was someone was gone to be here shortly. 30 minutes in counting no one is here. ... Read more

We had a great experience here. I was sick, so I had to do everything online for my Mom to drop some family heirlooms off. Kevin called me with some extra information I missed online that was extremely helpful. He was so friendly with me, my mom, and my husband later dropped by to pick up the key for the lock my mom purchased from the store (which was very reasonably priced). The facility is very nice and Kevin is amazing at customer service. We highly recommend. Thank you! ... Read more

Their name is “The Storage Center”. It should be “Best Choice Storage Center”. Here’s why: I’m a businessman and I make decisions by creating a list of my requirements. i.e.: - Security: Controlled access, video surveillance, on site management, well lighted, clear public view in highly traveled area, easy and clear access for emergency response. - Customer Service: Response time, customer needs come first: From my first visit, to my periodic interactions with Kevin, I have always felt welcomed and appreciated. - Quality facility: My stored items need to remain safe from theft or damage. This facility is new and security is “state of the art”. It’s even climate controlled! I would feel comfortable with my wife or child accompanying me to access my new unit. With the cleanliness, climate control, location and friendly staff, this feels like an extension of my home. That was my goal. ... Read more

Kevin, in particular, was an incredible help. He went above and beyond to assist me with everything I needed, offering clear guidance and making sure all my questions were answered. His professionalism and friendly demeanor made the entire process smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend this storage center to anyone in need of reliable and exceptional service! ... Read more

This particular storage facility provides self storage units of different sizes, ranging from 25 to 300 square feet. Space is not an issue! If you have more belongings to store, or simply bulkier items or even vehicles, you should go for larger storage units.

You already know how much stuff you need to put in self storage, so figuring out the unit size you need is the next step. Smaller units such as 5'x5' or 5'x10' spaces can usually be filled with the amount of items you would normally store in a closet: a few chairs and lamps, sports equipment, garden tools and some boxes.

Moving on to larger sizes, imagine the 10'x10' and 10'x15' units as similar to a bedroom or a living room – larger pieces of furniture, sturdier equipment and bicycles can fit here. Finally, a 10'x20' unit has enough space for the contents of a 3-bedroom house, while the larger 10'x30' space easily accommodates the contents of a loaded semi-truck.

Accessibility and quickness are key when it comes to storage, so drive-up storage units are generally regarded as very convenient.
