This is a fantastic facility! Clean units and courteous staff is always a plus. This was a very simple fast and user friendly storage rental process I have experienced. Cris was exceptionally helpful and has wonderful customer service. He made a stressful move much less hectic and went above and beyond my expectations to make sure I had everything I needed for this move to go smoothly. Thank you A-1 And thank you Chris!

That's why you should have insurance. You protect you home with the best security system and still your home gets broken into. As for the price if going up $15 are a little more is a problem, then you haven't been to Price storage. That's a place that will ripe you off. I've just movies In a unit.

I have rented my unit for almost a year and up until June I was ok with the facility but then the worst nightmare happened to me and 9 others we were violated. This place has no security system in place our units were broken into and we were robbed. The staff and management did shocked me with how little this incident was to them and how I was lied to in the beginning with my first question was "will my stuff be safe here. The lady reasurred me that each unit has it's own alarm and will go off if it is opened and your gate c... read more

Business response:

We understand how disheartening this has been, Wont. It's a difficult situation, and we are working with all of our customers throughout the claims process. We encourage you to complete the necessary paperwork to file your claim. I would like to clarify that our alarm system does not turn off at 8 PM, and that we are working with the police fully with their investigation into this matter. We would encourage you to continue work with our Area Manager, Stella, so that we can help you bring closure to this painful experience.

Been renting a garage since November 2016. Clean facility. The friendly guy left and now it's an older lady. I haven't met her yet though. The only thing negative for me is the amount of homeless people that rent and hang out in their unit all day. Some look creepy. Luckily I don't have to go through the Halls since I have a garage outside
