If i could give this place a zero i would. My client has been paying for his unit for 8 yrs then recieved notice of non payment when he has paid every single month and has reciepts to prove it they returned his last payment mind you this is a disabled vulnerable adult with a letter saying if you dont pay x amount of dollars by the 15th of this month your unit will be auctioned off so he had to drive 5 hours from his home to figure this out.

I’ve been trying to reach this business for SEVERAL weeks /months (since April) and no one has returned my calls after leaving dozens of voicemails. No one is ever in the office during business hours and the storage units are INACCESIBLE. I’ve been by and called on numerous days at various times during business hours and the office is ALWAYS EMPTY. Their email address no longer works. Did the owner die or go on a bender or something? I need my belongings. I’m getting frustrated and will never use this storage again and advise anyone considering them to look elsewhere. Very unprofessional and unreachable. ... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions

Storage units available at Western Mini Storage - 402 St. Helens Avenue include the following amenities: Climate-Controlled, Indoor, Drive-Up Access, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Security Camera, Gate, Parking and Multi-Level 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.
