Very unsafe to store items here.. Went earlier to store items and the gate was open, wouldn’t close, the elevator had some cable hanging out and was not working so I couldn’t even access my unit. Please do better and up the security or system, very dangerous and inconvenient.

Do you like the idea of leaving your valuables on the side of a public road for several months and paying for it? If so, look no further as that is the kind of security they have setup at these units. Store your valuables here at your own risk

Response from the owner · 2 weeks ago

We understand you have a question about the security of our units. We’re sorry your experience raised these concerns; please contact us at (253) 581-9780 so we can discuss them.

Very dissatisfied, kept upping our rate 3 times without notice and we hadn’t even had our stuff stored there for a year. Glad to be moved out of there. Not to mention the units next to us had a rodent problem. I don’t suggest renting a unit from this company.

Response from the owner · a month ago

We strive to provide clear communication and well-maintained spaces, and we regret that your experience did not meet these expectations.

Move in was very simple lock was in unit and all that was able to do the rest online. Only problem I have was they said drive up unit and although the door is outside the building it’s not drive up able there are bushes and a sidewalk in front of unit so I don’t consider that a drive up unit drive up means I could pull my vehicle up to the unit and unload not park and walk around a corner to get to unit due to sidewalk and bushes in front of unit and drivable area so to me I was not real happy about that . I ordered drive up unit due to my inability to walk so this was not ideal unit for me anyhow.

Response from the owner · a month ago

We are sorry to hear that the accessibility of your unit did not match your expectations, Heidi. While we are glad the initial move-in and online process went smoothly, having easy access to your space is important. Please reach out to us at 888-STORAGE so we can assist you with your space and help find a more suitable solution.
