Outstanding storage facility only matched by outstanding employees, especially Lindsy. Her attention to detail surpasses the industry standard. This person has store manager written all over, it’s a shame she’s not. Who’s ever in charge should definitely take a look at promoting this one and definitely pay her what she’s worth.

I have been a tenant for 1 month & still am. Upon moving in Eric was exquisitely proper, dressed crisp & spoke professionally with a ‘James Earle Jones’ sounding voice. I previously thought I set up auto pay when moving in, after my payment was late by 4 days I learned it was not set up. I did not receive a late luckily. I set up auto pay through my phone browser & then went to make a payment, but after a handful of attempts to do so, I stopped & drove into the Smart Stop facility on Walnut Grove. Amanda was very emphatic in understanding my frustration in making a payment. I showed her the issue I had on my phone & she assisted me & teacher a solution! Before doing so, she asked if she could stop “Smarty Pay” (auto pay “ & see if it then allows me to make a payment. It worked! So to avoid me hating to input my info again for smart pay, she expediting the process & did it all herself & rather quickly! ... Read more

This particular storage facility provides self storage units of different sizes, ranging from 50 to 200 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. Pull your car right up to your storage space, load, unload, and you're good to go! However, if you're mostly storing temperature-sensitive items, you should rather consider indoor storage units.

Climate-controlled units maintain consistent temperatures and humidity levels all year round, making them perfect for all your sensitive items. Moisture and varying temperatures can damage a whole host of things, and that is why a lot of people choose to use climate-controlled units to store items like wooden furniture, electronics, artwork, documents and photographs, collectibles, antiques, etc. If the belongings you're storing are important to you, you should consider renting a climate-controlled unit.
