it's a really good storage, they allow to entry until 10 pm,which is great. I have use A1 storage for a while. Before I use in a different location, I trust their service. They make everything safety enough read more

Very disappointing they did not have any large units so I had to book 2 smaller ones. when I arrived they informed me that they would not honor the promotional rate for both units despite not having a unit big enough for me.. read more

Been with this storage place for almost 2 years. Needed a place to store personal items on short notice, and they were very helpful in showing me different types of storage and giving me recommendations based on my needs. The staff were also helpful in guiding me to tie down my items to my truck to avoid getting pulled over. Did not have any issues during my time regarding the safety of my items and was content with how clean and maintained the location was. The staff was very kind, and it was a wonderful experience. If I need storage again in this area, I'll definitely pick this location again. read more

Would definitely recommend this location. Friendly and very helpful staff. Accessible to SJSU and we used it for storing my kid's dorm stuff over the summer. read more

I was renting here for 4 years and it was great. Nice and quiet, safe area, and clean. The staff are so helpful and James are very helpful and nice my 4 years that I rented. Highly recommended. Thank you so much! read more

The staff is very helpful explaining the procedures. The facility was spotless. The location is centrally located.

When we closed out one unit, they applied a credit to the remaining unit without being asked. Great service!

I've come here on two separate days, different times (during opening hours) and they have been closed. I emailed them to confirm the opening hours and no one has responded. Update: they finally emailed me back with their hours. They should post what time they're closed for lunch as well, because no one has 30 min to spare to wait for the office the open. read more

I appreciate how clean and secure the facilities are. The location is very convenient being near 2 different major freeways. I stayed here for 2.5 years and never had any issues. The service has also been very good. James is very responsive and I can appreciate his sense of humor. My only knock is the number of rent increases and why I can't give it 5 stars. Overall, a very positive experience and would recommend this storage facility. read more

Rented a storage unit for ~18 months during COVID after doing a lot of research. During the same period, a friend using Public Storage had his unit broken into and lost a lot of valuable possessions. I had no such worries given the excellent customer service and attention to detail at A-1. Some highlights: * Excellent service when purchasing and accessing the unit. James could teach a Masterclass on customer service. Examples: - in the initial orientation, James explained a common mistake that customers new to tubular locks sometimes make, which makes them *think* they have locked the unit successfully when they actually have not. - when some other movers started smoking just outside the grounds, management immediately reminded them this is a fully non-smoking facility and politely explained where smoking is legally permitted. - during a visit which involved some peak business, management politely asked if they could take back some of the loading carts I had been using to give them to other customers, then delivered the carts themselves. * Logistics: abundance of really nice loading carts. Fast elevators. Excellent interior lighting. Units, interior and exterior floors were spotlessly clean. * Security: units are individually keyed, de-alarmed at entry and re-alarmed at exit from the interior access area. In elevator, access codes only give access to the floor your unit is on. Management is highly attentive -- greeting me and others by name to indicate they knew who I was, which I found very re-assuring from a security perspective. My only complaint is that the interior loading area is a bit small; however, the management mitigates this by trying to make sure large trucks park appropriately. read more

James was wonderful at getting us setup and up to speed with how to use the storage facility. We got a good amount of space at a cheaper price than other local storage places we checked out. The facility is clean, and I love the handy little carts to move my stuff. Also if you get there early in day you can find an awesome food truck across the street. In case you drive over with a car load of stuff and didn't eat breakfast. Back to the storage, this place will be perfect for our moving needs. I still have enough room for all the furniture and random stuff we come across. If your looking for affordable storage in the San Jose Area go talk to James at A1 Self Storage. Thank you! read more

A-1 Self Storage - The storage battle begins! Thanks A1! - Self Storage Near Me - San Jose, California

Since a lot of the reviews here have already covered first impressions and the initial check-in process (spoiler alert: it's 5 stars), I'll make sure to highlight the opposite end - checking out. My gf and I rented a storage unit here for the last 14 months and just recently moved out. To sum up my entire experience...this business is probably one of the most straightforward, honest, no BS establishments we have ever had the pleasure of just simply interacting with, hands down. Throughout our entire lease all the way through moving out, the premises were kept very clean (like immaculate-level clean), rents stayed exactly as it was when we initially signed, and moving out was a breeze - no surprises, no hidden fees. This place is exactly what you would expect, plus more, from a self storage business. Here's the thing, if you've never rented a storage unit before or have only just begun doing the research (like us 1.5 years ago), that previous statement may seem anything but special... I don't want to drop names of other businesses, so instead I'll say this: For the skeptics or those that want to truly appreciate what a gem this place is, I would strongly encourage anyone currently shopping around to literally look up all self storage businesses within a 5 mile radius of this place and dedicate an entire day to hitting every one of them in order to determine the best one factoring in costs, cleanliness, security, service, etc. Because that's exactly what we did, and oh man this place takes the lead by far! Pro-tip: Schedule the A-1 visit last to save yourself an extra car trip back because you'll end up signing with them once you come to the same conclusion I did. To avoid rambling more than I already have, I will end with this: We thought we were adamant about getting a climate controlled unit, but it turns out A-1's non-climate controlled units are BETTER than all the other competitors' actual climate controlled units. How does that even make any sense?? Sorry one last thing: Serious props and respect to James and team. World class service! read more

Great experience here! Great service. Easy sign up. Cameras and code boxes everywhere, so it feels very secure. Very clean, great lighting, and lots of L carts. Make sure to check in on Yelp to get a free lock! Gate locks at 10pm. Thanks Jon at A1! read more

I rented a unit here. The facility was always clean and felt safe. Management was friendly and easy to work with. I would recommend.

James at A1 self storage was very helpful. Helped me pick a good storage unit and offered great customer service. Will recommend this storage facility to family and friends. read more

Great service, great people, very clean and great prices. James was great. Thank you James

The staff at this location is extremely helpful, friendly and professional. Our facility was set on fire in June 2022 and we needed a place to store what was left from the fire. A1 storage had affordable rates to meet our needs. We are a non-profit organization so what ever funds we can save to fulfil our mission of helping the unhoused in downtown San Jose, we are so thankful. read more

I've used this storage unit for two consecutive moves and have had good experiences both times. It's clean and there's usually parking available. People running this site are also very nice and accommodating. Will use anytime I need storage. read more

Clean, safe, and nice facility. A hidden gem. Great customer service. James and Bailey are fantastic and will assist you with whatever needs you may have. Confident to store any of your values. I enjoy the personal touch that James and Bailey bring ti A-1. read more

Great service! All questions were answered and left feeling comfortable that my things will be stored safely.

Not sure if my original review remains when doing a update, so a little of this maybe duplicated. My experience from signing up to filling my unit was a 5 star experience. The staff are key bs and helpful, the facility is sparkling clean, the hallways spacious. Thank you for the continued great experience. read more

This place is fantastic! There is another self storage location near my home, but I ultimately chose to go with A-1 because their prices were more affordable. I'm SO glad that I did! The facilities look great, and even the units on the third floor are conveniently located. The layout is very well thought out and simple to remember. The check-in process and intro are very comprehensive and straightforward. Like many here, I have to give props to James for an amazing job! He answered all of my questions, some before I even thought to ask them. He was also training a new employee at the time, and I know that she will be just as great! She was asking many questions, was very personable, and also spoke Spanish. I would definitely recommend this place to anybody who needs it. read more

Really great customer service. Really clean. Pricing is good too. James was really really helpful! read more

Needed this place in a hurry. Super available, clean and safe! The guys at the desk were amazing, helpful and accommodating. I had to get a bigger unit once I was there with the moving truck and was able to upgrade without a problem. It's all key pad to get in and out, including the elevators so you will not find anyone sleeping in the facilities. There are numerous cameras as well. The units inside have good cool airflow and lots of lighting in the hallways. I got my first months free with no obligation of additional time. I shopped around and they had the best price with an offer to boot! If I ever need storage again, and I'm still in the area, I will come back. read more

My girlfriend and I are moving to a smaller space and needed a storage so we decided to check this place out. When we arrived we were greeted by James. He was extremely professional and gave us a tour of the facility. He showed several of the units they had and described all the security features in the building. While we were touring the facility James was extremely kind and funny not to mention professional. He explained very thing well and answered all our questions. This storage facility is incredibly clean and very affordable after our tour we signed up for a unit which was easy. I would recommend this place to anyone needing a storage. read more

This place was very clean and organized, they give you a walkthrough in the beginning and are super helpful. I bought a lock through their service for 15$ and I was set to move my things into the storage. The whole unit was ventilated pretty well so you wouldn't feel overwhelmed. read more

I was referred to this location by James as a former tenant from a previous storage company he managed. There are a lot of new amenities my previous storage didn't have. Being a newer building it's all code entry. Including the bathroom, so there's no chasing a key. It's kept clean.There are plenty of flatbed carts, 2 sets of 6 near each elevator. Elevators are very large. Halls are wide and very well lit with led lights on motion detectors. Very good air circulation and music. This place was designed and is maintained to please the tenants needs. Friendly staff. I'm a very satisfied customer. read more

Juan was very helpful. We came in with no knowledge and he was was able to answer all questions and shows us the units. He was just very informative and I appreciate his efficiency. read more

Thank you A1 storage staff (especially James) for taking great care of us while storing our stuff. The facility is always clean and secure. If we ever need to store stuff again we will be coming back Teresa read more

Store your things here! I called a general phone number for A-1, had a rep locate nearby facilities, checked the availability of the size unit I needed, and received quotes immediately. She did all of the leg work for me - super awesome considering how stressed I was over my move. The interaction at the unit was just as pleasant. The facility is very clean, they are extremely thorough and patient, and my move there was super smooth. I was super impressed by the professionalism and communication that John and James provided. read more

Clean facility with professional team. I ended up needing to close the unit when my boyfriend and I broke up and the folks at the desk were super helpful, especially since it was a sad, emotional situation. read more

A-1 and James were fantastic since day 1! I was one of their first customers when they first opened. The setup was quick and easy. I had my storage unit for almost 3 years and just recently cleared it out since we are moving out the area. If I had any billing issues they were quick to give me a call to resolve it. The facility is clean, prices were great and it was easy to access my storage unit. Nothing but positive things to say about this place! read more
