We've had a storage unit at this location since August 2015. We started out with a small inside unit, mainly storing holiday decorations (yes, we have a lot of decorations). In June 2019, we moved up to a larger outdoor unit when my Mother in Law passed away and we had to store of few of her items until my husband could decide what to do with them (he's still deciding). Karen and her staff were very helpful getting us set up the first time and when we moved everything from one unit to the other, everything went quickly and smoothly.
The entire facility and grounds are very clean and well-kept. We often see Karen tooling around in her little 4-wheeled buggy keeping an eye on things. She always waves and says hello. Rules are strictly enforced inside and outside the units too. Prices are fair and reasonable when compared to other storage places. And we've always felt our stuff was safe and secure.
The only drawback to having an inside unit from an outside unit is that the inside units are climate controlled and I don't think we found one bug or spider (or rodents) in the four years our stuff was stored. Often times it was hard to find the complimentary flatbed cart (used for transporting things from your vehicle to your unit) because there isn't a designated spot for it to be stored. We'd sometimes have to search throughout the whole building for it. The outside units are easier to pull right up to and unload but they are more exposed to the sun, wind and rain and we've had an issue with dirt and spiders. But that's nobody's fault. None of our stuff has been damaged however and we keep a broom in the unit to clean the cement floor. Sometimes we've taken our leaf blower over to clean out the entire inside. You just adapt.
I love that I can pay online and take care of business from home. Although going into the office to speak with Karen is a pleasure. She always has a big bowl of candy on the counter too. All in all, we've been very happy with our experience these past 6 years with NW Self storage. read more
