Read some helpful reviews of CubeSmart Self Storage at 2645 Shirlington Road, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

I’ve had a wonderful experience at Cubesmart in Shirlington on multiple occasions! I have two storage units there — one for work and just recently rented one for personal use. Zach and his team are always so kind and friendly, and always go the extra mile to make sure that everyone is taken care of. Zach always has a smile on his face too, which doesn’t go unnoticed. I have only good things to say about this place. Thanks, Zach! ... Read more
Ariel M. - 2 March 2026
Around 4pm, I stopped by CubeSmart today to check pricing and look at units, and I left genuinely impressed because of Cody. I even reserved a unit given my experience. From the moment I walked through the door, he didn’t waste a second. He greeted me warmly and made me feel welcomed right away. My time with Cody wasn't transactional. It felt personal. It was personal!! What stood out most was how much care he took in the conversation. He not only answer my questions, he asked thoughtful ones. He wanted to understand what I actually needed, not just show me what was available. He listened, anticipated concerns I hadn’t even voiced yet, and met me exactly where I was ...practically and realistically. His enthusiasm felt authentic and his guidance felt honest. There was no pressure, only genuine service. In a world where customer service can sometimes feel rushed or surface-level, Cody delivered something rare: attentiveness, professionalism, and heart. Truly, a phenomenal experience. Thank you, Cody! Update!****** Went back a few days later and Zack finalized the contract for me. He was pleasant, easy to be with and answered all of my questions. The process was very easy! It was great to have another great experience!! ... Read more
Zoë S. - 2 March 2026
When I went to rent a storage space at the Arlington Virginia facility in early February, Cody was extremely helpful. He explained everything. He took me to see the loading dock and the elevator and the space that a colleague had reserved for my organization. And then he explained the billing process. While it is slightly less convenient to have to use an elevator and go down the hall then our prior storage space further out in the suburbs, we are quite satisfied with this space. ... Read more
Carol D. - 1 March 2026
Store manager Zach and his assistant Cody were both excellent - very easy to work with and helpful. Needed to upgrade to a bigger unit after realizing my initial unit was not large enough, as well as rent a moving van to help move some of my items, and the process was seamless. Their generosity is unmatched. Five star service all around! ... Read more
Garrett E. - 4 February 2026
I had a great experience at Cube Storage thanks to Cody. I went in looking for a storage space, and he was incredibly helpful. Cody took the time to show me several different units that would fit my needs and made sure I understood all my options. He was courteous, patient, and very professional. I truly appreciated his service and highly recommend both Cody and this location to anyone in need of storage. ... Read more
Pamela M. - 26 January 2026
I was looking at climate controlled self storage options near Shirlington and stopped by CubeSmart today, even though I planned to book online. I'm glad I did. First, the facility is modern, clean, and very conveniently located. Second, I worked with Cody who made the entire experience excellent from start to finish. He walked me through everything and, most importantly, listened closely to the description of my items. Cody showed me several unit options based on my specific storage needs. The excellent service was what sealed the deal and I made the reservation immediately. Update: I just finished moving in this past week, and the excellent service continued. I became concerned I needed a bigger unit, and Alex, the Store Manager, immediately stepped in. He helped me identify a new unit and confirmed the choice with my movers. Knowing I was paying my movers by the hour, Alex was extremely efficient in completing the contract process while still being detailed and clear in explaining all the final terms. ... Read more
Scott D. - 29 October 2025
This is my second storage unit at this facility. At one point or another, I have dealt with all the individuals who work here, including Cody and Alex. Without exception they have all been extremely helpful. I am not good with technology but everyone was patient with me. This unit is the forever home for some of our treasured memories. We plan to lease our unit until we die and our belongings become our son's problem. So hopefully we will be renting from you for another thirty years. Jan ... Read more
Jan H. - 28 October 2025
I rented a unit online at the Shirlington location in Arlington VA. I was able to get my items in that same day, after hours. The unit was empty and clean. I did have to buy my own lock since it was after hours in the office was closed. But the place was temperature controlled and clean and the elevators were huge and always accessible. They also had flatbed dollies available to move your stuff around which came in clutch. The extended hours we're perfect for my situation. Upon moving out the process was simple and Alex took care of me, I appreciate him being on top of things over there! Thank you so much for your help. If I ever need storage again I will be back! ???? ... Read more
Jessika R. - 21 October 2025
Alex was great and efficient. He answered all my questions and showed me around. He took me to my cube and advised me on the type of lock that would be best. He was very personable and nice. I will enjoy interacting with him again. ... Read more
Paula C. - 4 October 2025
CubeSmart in Shirlington is fantastic! Super convenient, large service elevators and carts to help you move everything from your car/trailer into the units. Shoutout to Alex who was so helpful when I first got here! The staff here is amazing and I recommend CubeSmart in Shirlington to everyone in the DMV. They are the best! ... Read more
Josh W. - 2 October 2025
Cube Smart in Shirlington is the BEST. The facility is clean and well lit. The parking lot has tons of parking. There are great carts to use to move your things in and out of your storage unit. Convenient and secure location. And the staff are super friendly and helpful. 10 out of 10 recommend this place. ... Read more
Susan T. - 18 September 2025
I had a great experience at CubeSmart Self Storage yesterday! The facility was clean, organized, and easy to access. A big shout-out to the manager, Zach, who was absolutely awesome and super helpful throughout the process. He made everything smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend this location for anyone needing storage! ... Read more
Jason E. - 29 August 2025
I got to know one of the employee at this location, Alex, while clearing out my locker and he was very helpful and attentive. I can tell that he and other guys who work there are good dudes and care about their work, their customers, and maintaining the facility. It is clean and they maintain the climate at a very good temperature. It’s a new facility and I can’t imagine that there is as good of a facility in the local area. ... Read more
Faja M. - 16 August 2025
Rental experience was very smooth with Cody and Zack, and found a very good value - and large - unit. When I started to move in I noticed that the previous tenants had not been particularly diligent in cleaning it up. I mentioned it to Zack and he had Alex come over and give the large unit a thorough and diligent sweeping so that, based on Alex's tidying up, the unit sparkles as we continue to move in. ... Read more
John K. - 19 June 2025
I give four stars because I haven’t actually done business with them yet. However, my conversation with the manager, Alex, has been excellent. The facilities were clean, and the temperature and humidity levels were quite acceptable. The storage units look easily accessible, as well as the elevators. The prices and promotional offers are not only competitive but much more appealing than other competitors. Alex was very informative and helpful in taking the time to show me the place and explain what amenities and help they can provide. ... Read more
CitizenDave - 19 June 2025
Had a very efficient and friendly visit today, and the total storage charges struck me as reasonable and lower than expected. My wife and I were helped by Alex, who even provided impromptu and useful suggestions on how to navigate the various tabs of my insurance app when submitting required documentation. The whole team was professional and polite even though we wrapped up after the office was closed for the evening. The facility itself feels well-managed and secure. ... Read more
Blake B. - 4 June 2025
At first it was a bit confusing to navigate around the facility but the friendly staff at the office helped me to find my unit and showed how to lock it properly. Overall, an excellent experience - the facility is very clean and access codes conveniently work from my phone. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for self-storage. ... Read more
Aleshka A. - 9 May 2025
My 3rd story indoor unit was broken into. Someone used a crowbar to bend the metal door slide with the lock still on. The front door to the building was smashed down. I never received a notification from the storage facility letting me know the building had been compromised. The workers stated they have no way to send out a mass notification and handle things on a case by case basis. I am the first one to report anything stolen. I imagine there are others who don't know. Do not store your valuable items here. My grandfathers watch will never be replaced. The workers are too far removed from upper management to care. Please go somewhere else. ... Read more
TYLER C. - 1 April 2025
Aiden Smith and Zach were great! The Arlington location was so friendly and easy to find and get it done. Verified my military fast and explained everything so smoothly. I appreciate the kind interaction I had with Aiden and quickness. Thank you both for the help! ... Read more
Juliah C. - 29 March 2025
I rented a unit at CubeSmart for two years, and my experience was deeply disappointing. The intercom in the annex building never worked, making it difficult to reach staff—who were often unavailable. In February, I visited my unit for the first time in six months to find that the sliding doors to the building were broken, creating a serious security risk. Because the intercom was still inoperable, I had to call the main number from my cell phone and wait on hold for several minutes, only to be told the doors had been broken for weeks. Staff advised me to simply pull the doors open. At no point did CubeSmart inform renters that their units were vulnerable or that unauthorized individuals could have accessed the building. This complete lack of communication and security is unacceptable, especially given that CubeSmart charges DOUBLE the price of its competitors. Despite their premium rates, they offer no incentives for loyal customers to stay. I have moved on to a more secure, better priced, better rated, and better managed storage facility just ten minutes away. ... Read more
Chantal W. - 6 March 2025
Had no issues. Was able to get a storage the same day. Very secured! You need to enter your access code before entering the property and exiting. You also have to enter your code to get inside the building and to access the elevator. The only issue I have, my unit area didn't have enough lighting ... Read more
Ann A. - 20 January 2025
Was probably once a very nice facility but now the outside is always cluttered with trash, the carpets are never vacuumed, the bathroom is only cleaned upon request and is absolutely filthy. I’ve even witnessed large flying cockroaches in the hallway. Meanwhile management is usually just sitting at the front desk on their phone or walking around outside seemingly avoiding the trash piles, lol. My personal favorite is the razor blades on the ground. ... Read more

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.

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

Monthly prices for units offered by CubeSmart Self Storage - 2645 Shirlington Road start from $24 and can go up to $493 for larger spaces.

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.
