Susan provided excellent service from start to finish. She was friendly, helpful, and very knowledgeable, taking the time to answer all of our questions.

The woman that helped me, Susan, was very kind and very professional. She was able to answer all my questions about my needs and was able to get me into the right size storage unit. I will go back there again and recommend this business to all my friends and family. ... Read more
Patrick B. - 20 May 2025
The storage space is just as advertised. As long as my belongings are safe and secure My rating is sufficient. The one thing by which I feel (not that one person's experience matters in a company this large) should accommodate a customer with a way to move items in and out when office is closed. I'm speaking mainly about Sundays, which is probably the most useful day when it comes to moving... I mean you could develope a corral with a key pass entry. If your equipment is NOT returned by said customer than charge that person the cost of a new flat dolly. (I guess that's what they are called) There is a sign up referencing "due to the fact customers don't return them a customer must wait until the office opens", certainly limits the usage time of the storage unit all together and due to the fact that there is nothing available to move heavy items to and from a storage unit that is very far away from the exit door, makes for bad business and unsatisfied customers. Although my number one complaint, I gave a 4 star. The attendant on duty is always kind and accommodating. It's the companies decision to have all customers suffer at the hands of those who do not comply. Your company should come up with a better solution. Ty ... Read more
Dawn A. - 26 December 2024
Like others said i had a good review until I moved my items out and was sad to see almost every single purse&bag I had was covered with mold, after they increased their prices. $160 a month to ruin your possessions. Stay away. ... Read more

Rob T. - 12 November 2024
If I could give this place zero stars I would. DO NOT STORE YOUR STUFF HERE, UNLESS YOU WANT MOLD. Anything that was not contained in boxes was destroyed. Couches, recliners, shelves, strollers, giant expensive bean bag chairs. All covered in so much mold. Even better, in the fine print they say they don't guarantee it to be climate controlled despite saying so. Since MA doesn't have a definition for climate control it's not unforced. It only took two months for expensive pieces a furniture to be destroyed and zero accountability. When we got home we even found a mouse living in our daughter's toys when we went through them. He was just sitting in there it a semi poisoned trance. There was evidence of their fecal matter everywhere and the urine smell on things they got into. There's obvious leaks and water issues as the the floors are warped. Please read this and save yourself the heartbreak and frustration don't store anything here. We responded to internal reviews negatively and for zero response. Mind you we had three units and experienced issues in all of them! ... Read more
Bri C. - 22 September 2024
I had to delete and change my review! Because after being there for some time now! I have many issues! First of all there is a leaking water issue in the building and I started the process on May 4th 2024, with one of the floating managers to put in my insurance claim and they were suppose to get back to me within 24-72 hours! They ignore you they stopped responding through email! Now mind you I have submitted all the proof and have witnesses that there is a water issue in that building and the company is not helping me! It’s been almost a month and they won’t respond to any emails that I ask for updates!! So tried reaching out on fb and they delete my pleas for assistance! I am being completely ignored at this point! When you get into a unit you have to have insurance what’s the use of charging people crazy money if you are not going to honor your own policies! I have since contacted the BBB and next is my lawyer! This is so wrong and unprofessional! Oh they don’t like when you say only correspondence through email! I will add some photos! But I do not recommend this company! ... Read more

This particular storage facility provides self storage units of different sizes, ranging from 25 to 418 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.
