After going to a few other storage places to price things out, I chose A1. Billy and Steve made the mundane process of storing my stuff very fun! They made sure I was clear on all the fees (which are, by the way, the cheapest I found in the area), gave me a free disk lock, and had me laughing the whole time. The facility is clean and in good repair. There was a family moving some things around and Billy knew them by name. You can tell that the staff here genuinely care about their customers. If you need to store your stuff in Oceanside, this is hands down the best choice. read more

The guys who work there are great! They are very helpful and make it easy for you!!! Highly recommend using this storage place!

Great place to store. The employees give excellent service. I had no problems and it was a good experience. Will use them again. Thanks Steve & Billy! read more

We came to A-1 after an awful experience with the storage place across the street where we originally had our reservation. Tracey helped us get a unit quickly as she understood we were in a time crunch and had already wasted precious time dealing with the rude staff across the way. In the year that we rented from A-1 we were always treat well, with respect and occasional jokes were exchanged. Mainly they really knew their clients which is rare these days. We are looking to rent again short term and will be returning to A-1 regardless of "special offers" being advertised around the area. You can not beat the security and peace of mind you receive with this staff. read more

My husband and I moved this last month and had to put quite a lot of our furniture and items in storage. Billy was super helpful in setting us up, even when we decided last minute to go with a bigger unit, he was nice enough to switch all the paperwork and show us the unit. There's lots of space, and trolleys to help you roll your heavier items down the hall. For our first experience with a storage unit, everything was easy and I fell secure with our items here. read more

BIlly and Steve take the stress out of renting a storage unit. They are so very friendly, accommodating, helpful and answer all my questions honestly and eagerly. I am with a women's organization that we are constantly upgrading and using our unit to store our event items. Each time Billy and Steve have guided us through a smooth transition offering us ideas and solutions. It is such a relief to have a trusting relationship and know your items are safe and easily accessed. I high,y recommend A-1 self storage and know you will feel comfortable conversing with Billy and Steve. Trish Vernazza for NCAAWA.org. read more

customer service there is great! they had a cart we could borrow, along with a dolley to use, plus the one we had, so moving everything into storage was quick and efficient. we switched/upgraded to a larger storage, and they showed us all that were available--and they were great/patience and agreeable to reasons we thought maybe not this one, until we found our "goldielocks" :) we're happy being here and it's close by and at a reasonable rate. read more

From the first call to the customer service agent, Billy, to the end of our long journey from Seattle, the team at A1 Storage made our interstate move seamless and perfect. We had to move a very large household from Washington to California. Billy assured us that "everything would be fine." He was right! We received rock-star treatment, great prices, and Billy himself even helped us unload one of our trucks. Everything was convenient, located right off the freeway, and easy access. The area is very clean, securely gated, and monitored by the team. Billy assured us that everything would be fine...and he was a man of his words. He even help arrange for a mover to help us move into a temporary place. Billy, Steve, and the team at A1 Storage are highly recommended by my family. Their prices are better than the competition and their services, as described, are top notch. Do yourself a favor...keep your stuff at A1 Self Storage in Oceanside. You'll be glad chose them. They were amazing! Thank you, Billy and Steve read more

Would recommend this place to anyone/ everyone. Billy makes this storage place feel almost home-y. They care about their clients- I was always late on payments (don't do that) and while legally they could have auctioned off my stuff, billy e-mailed and called me personally to get a payment. Like I said- don't make him do that- but in a dog eat dog world it's nice to know some people still care about the patrons of their businesses. I live in coastal oceanside and it is really close by, super easy to get to. While most storage units are a pain to get to, this one is very centrally located. 10/10 would use again. read more

Second time renting a unit from this place and a year later they still remember me! Even if it was a simple search for them to see if I'd previously rented, they know how to make your experience personal. Customer service consists of the 10 minutes of filling out the papers and the rest of the A1 experience is on the grounds. Very clean and spacious with good visibility of all the activity within the gates. Feels safe. read more

Incredible service at a storage place, who would have thought! The staff works with you regarding an optimal spot to store your belongings and are very helpful in regards to billing. Highly recommend. read more

Had a great experience renting from Billy he was super friendly and helpful. It is easily accessible and affordable. I definitely recommend this place! read more

Awesome costumer service. Steve and Billy are very friendly and happy to help. Super friendly atmosphere and fast service. Took me only a few minutes to get a storage unit. Definitely recommend this place to everyone looking for a safe place to store their belongings. It's gated and you have to use a personified code to get in and out! read more

Reserved a spot in early June. Billy was extremely helpful and fast, as I was on a time crunch. Friendly staff and I felt very secure leaving my belongings there. read more

Billy and Steve are awesome. I'd never rented a storage unit before, so I wasn't too sure what to look for or expect. Billy gave me the details I needed, reviewed available units and pricing (which are very fair from what research I did prior to coming), signed me up, and I was ready to store my belongings within 15 minutes, believe it or not. Steve helped tag team Billy in setting me up in the system, while I was explained the terms and details. Highly reccomend checking them out. read more

I got to A-1 just 30 minutes before Billy was ready to close up for the night, but he rented a unit to me and processed all the paperwork; he made me feel very welcome to be there. The customer service at this location is phenomenal and I was pleasantly surprised! I have heard great things about Steve as well! Definitely recommend storing with these guys!! read more

Used the storage for only 2 months, but was very impressed by it's easy access for anyone using the units, while it being highly secure for intruders. Billy and Steve were very helpful with all of my questions, and very thorough throughout the short paperwork. Thank you again! read more

Great location, secure facility and wonderful staff. Billy was fabulous and went over and above to make our experience easy and productive. He was able to help us find an affordable and sensible solution to our storage needs. Go see Billy he can help!! read more

These guys are great! Amazing customer service and helpful in every way possible, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

I received fantastic customer service from both Billy and Steve. I've rented units from other storage places in the past but I've never received the level of assistance and guidance at any other facility. I highly recommend this location, and he great staff that works there. They gave me the best price I could find anywhere in town for the size storage unit I rented. The facility is safe and very clean and I look forward to using them again in the future if I should ever had the need. read more

This is a clean and very accessible storage facility. They monitor the grounds closely and if you forget to lock your storage, they will call to remind you! The people who work here are kind and thorough. I would recommend this place to a friend anytime. read more

Reserved a unit off the web. Was called back immediately, which really impressed me. Billy gave me the details . When I showed up, I was again impressed with how clean the facility was. Billy and Steve got me signed up in no time and at a great price too. Stored at other places and they don't hold a candle to Steve and Billy's place. Great customer service, safe and clean. I highly recommend going to see North County's Storage Superstars! read more

Very friendly guys, and very helpful. Prompt service when selecting and signing up for a unit. In and out in a flash, very accommodating.

Steve and Billy gave me great service and were understanding of my last-minute moving situation - they even helped me stay within my budget to find something I could afford. They work really hard to maintain a neighborhood feel in their complex and make a point of knowing everyone who rents from them. The lifts make it really easy to carry major loads and transfer everything to your unit as quickly as possible. I highly recommend using this A-1 location! read more

I thought this review was posted almost a month ago but I do not see it anywhere. I received their newsletter today, another great feature of this business, and in reading it saw their review website and decided to post my yelp review to it, which I had written immediately after I rented my unit. I was actually anxious to write.it However it was not here. So I will try to recreat it. The experience I have had with A1 has been one of the, if not the BEST INTERACTION I have ever had doing business with anyone. I managed a small facility years ago, for my dad, and also worked at a large facility for a short time so I feel this review has some grit to it. The location, perfect for me, the size too. Most of the others didnt offer that size. The hours, both office and gate also the best. I was casualty looking on line for a unit in the Oceanside when I ran across A1 and although was in a hurry to go to an appointment I decided to CHAT ONLINE. I believe the reps name was D Ana, and am now trying to remember cause its been over a month now so. I apologize if that is not correct. She was AMAZING in that I had numerous questions, which she answered quickly and accurately. Even is she was not sure she left for a few seconds and came back with it, Felt like I as talking face to face. I had made a mistake in the location I wanted and she was extemely patient and understanding. She talked me into actually SIGNING UP ONLINE rather than reserving it even though I didnt have much time, She told me it would take just a few minutes and she would stay online to help if needed; that it would save me time once I got there and she was absolutely right. She contacted the facilities, two of them to make sure the access for me was the best, because one was less expensive, The ONLINE PROCESS was QUICK and EASY to understand. ARRIVING AT THE SITE JUST AS GOOD. Gave my name to this bigger than life man named BILLY who asked my name and immediately welcomed me and grabbed the already completed contract. He asked for the ID went though the signing and told me I would be out of there quickly. Loved, loved his accent and made me feel very at ease, He assigned my code and we were off to c the unit. It was a GREAT LOCATION. He showed me how to use the FREIGHT elavator and opened the unit for me. He noticed the latch was a little off and told me that would be fixed, which it was. However amazing all this was up to now NOTHING COMPARED to when I returned to use the unit I was gonna have to get out of the car to use the code but the GATE SEEMED TO MAGICALLY OPEN. BILLY ALREADY RECOGNIZED MY VEHICLE AND OPENED IT FOR ME, A SERVICE THAT REALLY MAKES ONE FEEL LIKE A PERSON WHO IS IMPORTANT and not just a number. That happens time and time again, even when STEVE, the other manager is on, even though he had never met me, TOTALLY AWESOME! read more

Great customer service!!! Answered all my questions and helped me pick the right unit!
