If you work for a living don’t expect to see the man to pay for your storage because he’s never in the office and when he does he acts like it’s a burden on him to come in to receive your payment. Oh I’m sorry my only days off are Saturday and Sunday. ... Read more

Called and Jim answered the phone, Very polite and answered all my questions. Agreed to meet me and show me what was available and let me pick my own spot (RV Storage).

The lot is gated and protected all around, and spots are level, and wide enough/plenty of room to back in. The lot has a circle drive which makes dropping off and picking up very easy. Prices are very reasonable compared to what we found. Owner lives right by the lot / office and the lot is tucked away from the road and in the back out of sight of main traffic. We originally decided to pay month by month, then changed our mind to pay for the year, and he went ahead gave us the yearly price for the whole year even though he could have prorated it for the months we paid month by month, so it was very good of him. Just make sure to call during business hours as the phone number is his own cell phone and you may catch him out of the office. Another review here said he was "grumpy" - I found him to be very reasonable, just don't expect a whole lot of nicey-nice chit chat. Be straight forward and polite, call during business hours and he will be fine with you! :) ... Read more

I am pricing different storage units but there site doesn't have prices. I decide to find out what time they open so I can ask for prices but the site doesn't have hours listed to call. I then figure maybe the office number listed has the hours of operation on the voicemail. I call and no answer and no hours listed. I get a call back from a angry man asking what I want. I replied by asking if this was the storage place. He in turn said yes and he grumbled that he doesn't appreciate being woken up! I quickly apologized and explained that this is listed as an office phone and I was hoping for hours to be listed on the afters voicemail. He snapped back that I wasn't sorry at all. I don't know what their storage is like but I'm staying away from this company and their drama. ... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions

Storage units available at Scherer-s Mini Storage - 1951 Mayflower Drive include the following amenities: Indoor, 24 hour access, Drive-Up Access, Onsite Manager, Gate, Parking, Online Payment and RV Storage. Depending on what you need to put away in storage, you can discover there are some things you absolutely need, so make sure you check with the facility manager that you'll find everything you need on site.

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.
