    Customer service on the phone was very helpful and understanding. She took the time to explain and provide me with options

    The manager, Carol, provided great service to our family as we rented a unit remotely for temporary…read morestorage during the summer months when off from college. Everything was handled via email and phone...no problems at all. Move-in and out was quick and painless. There are a few storage places in the Gainseville area but this one is conveniently located in a not too busy area.

    I was going to give two stars but after a recent email, I bumped it down to one. Last year, when I…read morefirst started using this location, I would have given it four stars, but things have drastically changed. The property is fine and relatively well-kept even. It is, however, difficult to get trucks in and out due to the layout. If there's too many people already at the facility accessing their units, you'll have a really difficult, if not impossible, time getting around with your car or truck. The office staff does rounds pretty frequently to check on things. Security is standard and I've had no issues. Some of the buildings have structural cracks in the flooring that look concerning but I don't know if it's a big issue or not. The bigger problem is that Devon Self-storage is private equity. If you're unfamiliar with that, in my experience so far, it means that the owner(s) can do what they want when they want. An example is their rates. Their rates seem great on the website. That's what got me to rent with Devon in the first place. They seem cheaper than a lot of places around town. But I've had my rates raised every six months since I moved in. My most recent rate increase was $42. That was on a unit that I just moved into in June 2026. I was paying $182. The rent will increase October 1st to $224 (with insurance it will be $242). They also owe me $146.47 as a refund when I moved out of one of their other units back in June. I've attempted to address the issue repeatedly with Chris the manager. He continues to refuse to address it. Initially Chris was great. Not sure what happened. There is a new person in the office now in addition to Chris and she's very nice but wasn't thoroughly trained and unable to help directly with a lot of issues. She just passes it along to Chris. So I cannot in good faith recommend this particular Devon Self Storage. Maybe the other ones are better but I have heard that they raise their rates often just like this one. I've waited months for my issues to be addressed. Renter beware!

    Extremely disappointed with customer service. I had booked a move for July 31st but had to cancel…read moreit because of a family emergency. I called MULTIPLE TIMES throughout MULTIPLE DAYS. Now, I checked the hours and thought "well, maybe the hours have changed due to COVID, so I'll call later in the day to see if they'll pick up." They didn't. The first few times I called, no one answered and I tried to leave a voicemail. Mailbox was full. Understandable. I call the next morning, no one picks up, and I was able to leave a voicemail. Sounds to me like they emptied the mailbox which was great. I wait two days, and no one calls me back. I call several more times, and leave another voicemail. I WAIT TWO MORE DAYS, AND NO ONE PICKED UP. In my voicemail, I also wanted to ask if the $100 I deposited was refundable because when you book a move, you need to put a $100 to secure your booking. So, I got fed up of waiting to call the next day and sent an email asking to cancel my move and ask if I could be refunded. I wake up this morning to an email, an AUTOMATED EMAIL, that my move was canceled. Okay, that's good. My original objective was done. However, the fact that no one wanted to answer my simple question of a refund was already making me angry. I called this morning twice to ask about the refund. And again, it went straight to voicemail. The first few times I called, I figured it was because of COVID and I'd been lenient. But now that it's been over a week, I'm done being patient. Had someone picked up to tell me they're understaffed or even mentioned it in the voicemail, I would've understood. 1) ALL of my calls were ignored and NO ONE thought to call me back even AFTER I left two voicemails 2) They clearly didn't care when I voiced my concerns in an email that I simply wanted answers for a refund and a cancellation. Cancellation was done but I guess they figured it would be easier to just cancel the move without having to deal with a paying customer. 3) I had heard great things about this moving company and saw so many great reviews about their services. This was a huge let down. Customer service is a big part of what makes someone want to pay for your services. Next time, when I move, I think I'll just stick to moving furniture myself.

    I was put off by the attitude of the one mover, they sent three. He was the one in charge. He for…read moresure knew what he was doing with moving things and had to direct the other two. It was just incredibly stressful and I could not wait for them to be gone. I'm older. I used to be able to do things on my own and I can't anymore. Letting people into your home and handling your personal things is stressful in itself. I felt the leader was disrespectful and made fun of me being older. I'm not sure why that's ok in today's society but it seems so. He made constant noises and when he called for me to ask a question it was in a high pitched weird voice, sort of imitating a cat. I did at one point tell him I was not sure if I should be offended by his high pitched woman voice imitation- trying to give him notice to stop. He did not. It did seem as his two helpers were made a little uncomfortable by it also. They moved my stuff, thought it was made more stressful than it needed to be, and I probably won't use them again. The person I spoke to on the phone was polite - too bad he didn't do the move.

Thanks to prior reviews I came in cautious and was properly prepared. After making a reservation online, I came in to pick up and started the transaction with a casual "good morning." Nothing over the top but just respectful. A couple of yes "ma'am's" and "no ma'am's" and the transaction was fine - uneventful. Everything was satisfactory to the pick up, the truck functionality, and the drop off (at another location). I did get the feeling (from transactions ahead of me) if you are going to challenge anything that you need to stay respectful. I felt any negativity would be met with a low tolerance level. Very small waiting room (also in pics) so hopefully you don't have to wait long for anything. I would have no qualms about using them again.

    The woman at the counter was very rude to us. I had a reservation for 1:30 pm made on line. She…read moresaid that reservations online are not guaranteed and there were no trucks available. We had come from Miami to Gainesville and our window to move the furniture was 2 hours. She could care less about us. I asked how we could cancel the reservation and she said she could offer no help and to call the online reservations. She truly misrepresented budget and its policies. I had to find a pick truck from enterprise and do the moving in 3 trips. I don't understand the previous reviews. She is a master in mistreating people. Congratulations for your horrible treatment of customers
