I wanted to share my experience with this particular facility to save others the headache of going through the same things.
I needed a facility to store some items during my transition between moving. The prices here are fair and seemed reasonable compared to competition. I paid for the inside, climate controlled storage for the best protection of my things. However, during my stay they re-surfaced the floors in the building. There is an opening above all the units- I'm assuming for air circulation- and the DIRT/DEBRIS FROM THE FLOOR RE-SURFACING PROJECT IN MY BUILDING COATED ALL MY BELONGINGS. I had upholstery covered in this fine dust as well as boxes. I had no idea what happened to my things until I spoke to the manager, who shared about the re-surfacing of the floors. I explained to him that everything was dirty as a result and his only reply was that they covered the openings but must not have been fully effective. He said only if items were "unusable" would he be able to do anything. WHY AM I PAYING A PREMIUM FOR A CLIMATE CONTROLLED UNIT WHEN MY THINGS ARE GETTING DIRTIER THAN THEY WOULD BE IF I STORED THEM IN SOMEONE'S GARAGE?
To make matters worse, my move out date was the 27th (and bill date) and I moved out on the 28th. The manager said he would refund me the month when my brother called on the 28th to confirm we were moved out. He said the refund would take a week. I waited nearly 2 weeks with no credit to my account and called back. The manager then acted as if he never would have approved this refund and policy states he can't do anything for me. He said he would work on getting it pro-rated for the one day that I was late in moving out. Two weeks later, no call back from the manager, no follow-up and still no refund. I'm aware of the "policy" and that they in fact don't HAVE TO refund me, however if you say you are going to make the refund, then it should be done. Customer service is key to good reviews and good business practice.
Also in reviewing my account and payment history I noticed my monthly bill increased by $11 after month 4. While this isn't significant, no one contacted me, emailed me, sent out anything in the mail about this increase. Nor do I even know what this increase was for.
I've contacted their customer service to address the issues and will keep my review updated on how everything is handled.
