As an artist and small business owner, I rely heavily on my storage unit for both my creative work and business equipment. Unfortunately, my experience with Morningstar Storage has been nothing short of a disaster, and I feel it is important to share how this has severely impacted my livelihood. In May, my Jeep was broken into while parked at their facility. The break-in was made possible due to a pod storage unit parked in the lot, which created a blind spot and provided coverage for the thief. This could have been prevented had the management taken the necessary precautions, as the manager was aware of the vulnerability at the time. Just a few weeks prior, there had been a similar incident, and no actions were taken to block off that area. On the day of the break-in, I only stepped away from my car for a mere five minutes to grab something from my unit. In that time, my vehicle was targeted, and my bag—containing all my electronic art tools and devices—was stolen. While I acknowledge that I should not have left my bag in plain view, the lack of security measures in place at the facility only made this situation worse. There is no gate at this location, and access to I-10 is too convenient, leaving tenants vulnerable. When I immediately went to the manager’s office for assistance, the staff member on duty was completely unhelpful. She was untrained and couldn’t even operate the security cameras to retrieve footage of the incident, let alone provide a description of the thief or vehicle to share with the police. The employee offered no real help, and since it was closing time, she simply left me standing outside. I returned the next day to speak with the General Manager, but she too struggled with operating the cameras and was unable to get in touch with the IT person who could help. Unfortunately, he was unavailable, and I was left with no assistance. The GM then informed me that none of the cameras had been working for weeks due to a recent storm. They couldn’t retrieve any footage, and my case was essentially abandoned. To make matters worse, when I requested an incident report, I was met with resistance and frustration from the manager, even though it was something that should have been handled immediately. The lack of training, professionalism, and basic customer service was absolutely shocking. As I dealt with the loss of my equipment and the impact on my business, I reached out to corporate multiple times, leaving messages and hoping for some assistance. Unfortunately, I never received a call back or any acknowledgment of my concerns. I was also told that the insurance I paid for would cover the loss, but when I contacted the insurance company, they declined my claim, leaving me without any recourse. This entire experience has been a huge setback for me, both personally and professionally. Losing valuable tools for my art and business, coupled with the utter lack of care from the facility and corporate team, has been incredibly frustrating. I’ve since moved my belongings to a new storage facility—Community Storage on Washington—which is gated, secure, and has a manager on-site. I would strongly advise against using Morningstar Storage. As a small business owner, the lack of security and the complete disregard for customer care has been detrimental to me in more ways than one. I hope this review helps others avoid the challenges I’ve faced. ... Read more

Great new storage location, the amenities are super clean, spacious and safe. The property manger Richelle made our signing up experience superb! She’s professional and kind, the touring of the units and signing up went as smoothly as you can imagine. We didn’t even bother to check any other locations after our encounter with Richelle and seeing the facility. Reasonable priced and I’d highly highly recommend this self storage location if you’re looking . ... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions

Storage units available at Morningstar Self Storage - 4495 Katy Fwy include the following amenities: Climate-Controlled, Indoor, 24 hour access, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Truck Rentals, Security Camera, Gate, Parking, Multi-Level Storage and Online Payment. 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.
