They are not answering their phone. They charged me for the month of March, even though I had already paid for it. Despite calling them 20 times, they did not pick up. I am frustrated with this situation. They should do their job correctly. I have already paid for this month, yet they added a new charge and will add a late fee. I have already paid for storage, and I feel like no one is on the line to help me. They even sent me a voice message saying that I didn't answer the phone, but I was already on the phone with their company. It's frustrating that they leave a voice mail when I'm waiting to talk to them. They put a false charge on me when I had already paid for this month, and then added a late fee of $20 as if I didn't pay on time. It's ridiculous. ... Read more

Overpriced for the size of units. Late fees are astronomical. Customer service is mediocre at best. Many empty units at Sycamore location since Minify took over, and for good reason. Not a company worth patronizing. Cannot wait to find another unit with another, more reasonable company who isn't trying to screw you over to meet their bottom line. There are plenty of cheaper units available from others. Stay away from this one!!! ... Read more
Josh C. - 23 February 2024
I had a unit here for over a year- was told move out and move ins were prorated, which later I find out isn’t true. I moved out a few days after the first and ended up not being prorated for the move out. I even spoke with a manager who was no help. These storage units are very overpriced compared to others in the area. Take a few moments to do more research- I wish I would have. I would like to add this in response to what the owner below has stated- I did ask for a manager and they gave me a manager on the phone, so you need to talk to your employees and see who is pretending to be the manager when you aren’t there. This phone call was on 10/7. The “manager” that I spoke with also informed me that they ONLY do pro rates for move ins, so again misinformation from what you are stating below. As far as rates go- the rates are higher for this storage until and anyone looking for good rates with an honest company go to Breezys. The only reason I didn’t was because they were full and they are full because they are a great business. There is a reason Minify has so many vacancies. Don’t be fooled. Also, the rental agreement gets sent to you AFTER you sign up, there’s no office to look at it ahead of time..... ... Read more

The units are affordable, clean and well kept and the person I spoke to on the phone was very polite and attentive. HOWEVER be aware this facility has no gate, no attendant and no security cameras. Anyone with a pair of bolt cutters can easily cut your lock and access your unit. If you're just storing furniture or things you're not worried about, this a great place and I would definitely recommend. However, if you are storing anything of value, or you just don't want people rummaging through your things, I'd recommend spending the extra on a more secure facility. Learn from my mistake. ...

This particular storage facility provides self storage units of different sizes, ranging from 50 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.

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.
