I've rented at least one storage unit here for about two to three years now, and at times had a second storage unit as well. The staff has always been very kind and courteous each time I have been there. The last time, I brought a rental truck that appeared that the last renter had backed into a concrete structure with as I dumped all kinds of rubble onto the ground when I pulled the loading ramp out. The storage management walked by several times and only have me a friendly smile and greeting. Never once did I get a, "make ... read more

Amazing customer service. The employees there are a wonderful help and their prices are great. Out of the several storage places in the area I've hit up they are my favorite. I highly recommend them.

I have been storing/renting at this location since Jan. 2014. Up to July, I was happy with my experience. In July I had to move into a smaller unit. I signed a contract for a 5x10 unit, but when I started to physically move my stuff into said unit, I realized it was actually a 5x8 and 4 inches; it was ACTUALLY MEASURED at 5x8 and 4 inches. When I questioned this I was told that according to their records the unit is listed as a 5x10, so the FACT that is it WAS NOT the 5x10 I signed a contract for was a non-issue for them.

After searching and comparing many storage facility options in Oceanside when I phoned A1 I had the pleasure in speaking with Tracey in the 3040 Oceanside Blvd. location. Tracey was very personable and extremely professional answering all questions I had. She invited me to come and she would show me some of their units available and also help with the recommendation on the size I needed. I did visit the facility, Tracey showed me around and explained the pros and cons of units located in various areas of the facility. I phon... read more

Business response:

Great to hear, Debbie! Thank you so much for sharing your experience. I know this review will brighten Tracey's day.

I wish I could give half a star because I would. I rented a unit while my husband was deployed because I was pregnant, very sick and moved home to have surgery. When I returned 6 months later everything was fine until I started moving stuff out. My friends had gotten one load done and had one left. When we got back there was a different lock on the unit and my stuff was gone. I immediately went to the office and demanded to know where my stuff was. The people in the office blew me off and told me the unit was empty when they... read more

I would recommend this location to anyone and everyone. I can't imagine ever worrying about the security of my belongings at this location. I have rented a large unit here since July, 2011. Not only were the premises immaculately clean but the staff (Jim and Tracy in particular) went above and beyond to help me with anything I needed. When it came time to move out of state this week, Jim even allowed me to have moving containers delivered and made sure they were put in the most convenient location for me. Then he called to t... read more

I had my stuff stored here for a month, but I would choose this place again. I had planned on storing at their Vista location which is a few miles away, but they sort of messed up my reservation for a space that was about 10x6. I was moving from L.A. that day so I was upset. I had reserved it under a special that would have cost me about $50. They offered me similar spaces for $180!! Big price differrence. But the rep on the line offered me a space at this location free for the error, and they ended up giving us a space abou... read more

The bottom line is, when you rent a storage space, you expect your stuff to still be there when you return from seven months in Afghanistan. The other stuff - friendly service, clean space, etc. - is icing on the cake. When your stuff isn't there, then the other stuff doesn't matter. I returned to find a lock that wasn't the one I left on my storage unit. A-1 cut the lock, and when they opened the door to my rented unit, I saw that most of my stuff was missing. You might wonder - what thief (or thieves) would bother to steal... read more
