I have some good and some not so good The storage building closes at 10 and I was in my unit and didn’t realize it was about five minutes after 10. I hurried to the gate to try to get out and leave, but I was locked in. I couldn’t find any way to get out on my own. I called the fire department and they were able to come and turn their sirens on which activated an emergency unlock and I was able to get out. I think there is a bit of a rat problem because I noticed some of my boxes had been chewed through with Little pieces of paper and what not all over the floor from where some of my things had been chewed up. With all that aside, it is in a convenient place and I was happy with the fact of the first two months getting a discount whenever I rented my unit. They have been good with working with me when I have been a little late on payments.

Great customer service and the prices are reasonable for the units. However, I have informed Management about the dumpster been overflowing for the last month, nothing has been done about it. There’s trash everywhere around the dumpster, no only it is an eye sore but also there’s no where to dispose of trash.
