I needed a unit to start staging some things for moving. The building is always so nice and neat. I've never had trouble parking, and no shortage of carts on hand to load my things onto, either! Rondo helped me get checked in, gave me the tour, and was just an all-around pleasure to deal with. Overall, an excellent experience! ... Read more

I’ve used Safe storage for over 2 years. Always clean, great employees (Thanks Rondo for always helping). Came and went easily at varying hours and always felt safe being their alone as a single women. Parking onsite (in front or in back) was never an issue. Would definitely recommend. Better priced than comparable units. ... Read more

I had to move out of my ex's apartment which was nerve wracking. Rono, one of the front desk attendants was very friendly and accommodating. He helped alleviate my stress and gave me piece of mind that my furniture was safe and secure. Couldn't have been easier! ... Read more

I recently moved my things into Safeguard Self Storage, and I’m really impressed with the experience so far. The facility is super clean, feels very safe, and parking is easy whether you go in through the front or the back. Rondo was the person who helped me, and he was not only kind and friendly, but also incredibly thorough. He explained everything so clearly that I’ve already been to my unit twice with zero issues—thanks to his guidance, using the access codes and unlocking the unit was a breeze. Highly recommend this location and especially Rondo for anyone looking for a smooth and stress-free storage experience! ... Read more

The facility is clean, orderly, and all of the units are easily accessible. I’ve been renting units here for the last 3 years, and everything has been simple. Rondo (assistant manager) has helped me on a number of occasions. Today, I downsized my storage unit, and he made the entire process a breeze. It took a total of about 10 minutes to terminate the contract for the old unit and open a new one. He answered all of my questions, and I watched him interact with several other patrons while I was moving out/in. He’s professional, but personable, and he’s my “go-to” if I have any questions/concerns. Today, he saved me nearly half of my rent by disclosing options to downsize. ... Read more

This particular storage facility provides self storage units of different sizes, ranging from 20 to 150 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.
