This business (under new ownership) is a scam. DO NOT do business with this company. My storage fee…read morewent from 160.00 to 235.00 (without notice) and was forced to move to another unit to get a lower rate, only for the exact same thing to happen 3 months later (again, with zero notice!).

(0 Stars if I Could) - Predatory Pricing & Deceptive Practices at Self Storage Plus - One Loudoun…read more I rented a unit at Self Storage Plus - One Loudoun under what I believed were fair and transparent terms: $104/month, clearly outlined in the signed rental agreement. I even paid upfront and followed every condition asked of me. But to my absolute shock and frustration, within barely one month, they increased my rent to $200/month--a 92.3% increase from my original rate. Let that sink in: nearly double the agreed-upon rent with no meaningful justification other than corporate greed and opportunism. And while they'll try to hide behind the fine print ("we reserve the right to change rent with 30 days' notice"), this is a textbook example of predatory business tactics designed to lure customers in with low rates, only to trap them with exorbitant price hikes once their belongings are already stored and moving becomes difficult or impossible. What They Did Might Be Legal - But It's Absolutely Unethical Yes, they can argue that they legally gave notice under Clause 20 of their agreement, which allows them to modify rent with a 30-day notice. But just because something is technically legal doesn't make it morally right, especially when: * They intentionally undercut other competitors to get you in the door. * They wait until your items are stored--fully knowing the hassle and cost of moving out. * They then blindside you with a nearly 100% increase, essentially holding your property hostage. This is a predatory pricing model that exploits the inertia and inconvenience that storage customers face. It's manipulative, calculated, and it erodes trust in an industry that already walks a fine ethical line. This Practice Has Sparked Legal Scrutiny Elsewhere This isn't an isolated tactic. In recent years, similar bait-and-switch rent increases have been: * Challenged in small claims courts across the U.S. * Flagged by consumer watchdogs for deceptive business practices. * Subject to class-action lawsuits, including actions involving national chains like Public Storage and Extra Space Storage for the same abusive behavior. This trend is why states like California and New York have begun proposing legislation to cap or regulate rent increases in the self-storage industry, especially for tenants under auto-renewal leases. A Cautionary Warning to Potential Customers To anyone reading this: avoid Self Storage Plus at all costs--especially the One Loudoun location. Their business model is engineered to: * Bait you with a reasonable initial price, * Trap you once you've committed, * And gouge you with an outrageous price increase when you're most vulnerable. You will receive little empathy, no flexibility, and certainly no apology--just a cold invocation of contract language that lets them do it. Bottom Line: Rent Elsewhere If I could give this company zero stars, I would. A 92% rent hike in 30 days is nothing short of corporate exploitation. This is not just poor customer service--it is a deliberate and strategic abuse of consumer trust.

I had a very good experience with Zippy Shell DMV…read more I originally ordered a 16-ft storage unit to be delivered by one of their competitors who advertised that they could fit their containers into very tight spaces using a robot. But that company showed up with a container and they tried and they gave up and left. I immediately got on the phone and called Zippy Shell DMV and described my situation, and shared dimensions and photos, and they said they saw no reason why they couldn't do what the others couldn't. 3 hours later, our storage unit was delivered, and as you can see, they tucked it expertly into my tight spot. When you have a storage unit for 4 months, it's great to not have it on the street, and not have it block your garage either. Well done!. Zippy Shell's units are also very nice, flat to the ground with barn style doors and even carpeting on the floor. And they price matched the competition. And they are great on the phone if you have any questions.

I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Zippy Shell. We found ourselves in an…read moreemergency situation where we had to be out of our existing storage unit ASAP and called Zippy Shell on Friday evening. They had a crew and container at the unit the next morning at 8:15, with a 2nd crew and another container arriving at 10:30. Everything was completely out of the unit by 12:30p.m. Did I mention there was no elevator? Absolutely amazing! Bill and his crews were great to work with and I whole-heartedly recommend Zippy Shell! Shout out to Christian, Rashad, Dwayne and Carlos - thank you guys for your unwavering professionalism!
