(This was done to an entire group of storage areas.) This meant moving some of my stored and neatly arranged items out of the storage area while they were working and then moving them back into the storage area wherever they fit as some of the space was taken up by the new door. I was only called after it was all done to get a key for another lock. I questioned whether there could have been theft or items broken during this remodel. The owner didn't care. I asked why I wasn't notified about what they were going to do. He said they had the right to do the remodel without my knowledge. Another time they didn't have a digital copy of my rent agreement so they locked me out of my storage area until they got a digital agreement signed from me, even though I was paid up and had the hard copy I originally signed. I also second all reviews about frequent and 10% + rent increases. Oh and don't forget to give them a timely copy of your rental insurance agreement each year as they will slap a fee on for insurance without any second warning. This is not a criticism of the staff which I didn't have any problems with. In summary, you and your possessions are beholden to storage areas, who can raise rents and do whatever they want. They more or less hold your precious possessions for ransom.

My movers brought stuff down. Then they decided that I couldn't have the truck. They told me that it was only for moving in. They could have told me this at the time I reserved it, before I committed to movers, or any other time. They started smiveling about how instead of trusting them "I should have read the fine print." That is how much they care about customer service and keeping their word. I was out $350 to the movers. The "regional manager" was in the office and was fully aware of what was happening, and agreed that they should not keep their word, that I should have read the fine print instead of taking their word for it when they went through all the motions of providing the truck. This is a nice facility and a good location for me, but If you care about honesty and integrity, stay away, they are liars and snivelers.

Simply Self Storage had great pricing online and was giving a 'first month free' discount. We ended up renting a 10x10 space for about 5 months and were very pleased. Access was easy, but secure. No, there isn't 24x7 gate access, but I didn't have a reason ever to be there between 10p and 6a. I never felt that I or my belongings were unsafe. It is busier here on weekends, but if you come earlier or later in the day, there usually isn't much congestion. They do have some carts onsite, so you don't necessarily have to bring your own. If you need service, you can always stop by during the office hours and someone was available to help. If I have a need to rent storage in the east metro in the future, I would certainly rent here again!

We had a bad experience with public storage where our stuff got water damage this past winter due to the snow. The unfortunate thing is the water damage did not come from the roof but from the street because of all the snow that piled up. It leaked into our storage and our furniture was destroyed. So we decided to find a new storage and we're so thankful we found simply storage. This place offers insurance and the staff is friendly and helpful. Don't go anywhere else!

Don't use them. A pick up truck and 2 guys from the nursing home could be faster. I was so disappointed. 11.5 hrs instead of 3 and a half.

Because traffic was heavy on highway 61, my car was idling in the path of the electric gates. There were people in front of and in back of me so I couldn't get out of the way. No big deal, right? By law, automatic gates require a safety feature that prevents people/objects from being crushed. Not this one. They removed the electric eye because it "kept opening" according to the owner, and my car was crushed, causing $2000 worth of damage. The witchy receptionist lady was rude from the first minute I called. No one answered the "emergency" number, which makes me wonder what was happen if the place was on fire or something. She called me back 2 days later, saying that it was my fault, and that there are signs saying that there is an electric gate. Huh? Does that excuse your faulty system? I finally got her to agree to have her boss call me back. He wouldn't give me their insurance information. When he finally did, he lied about what happened and they denied my claim, costing me a $500 deductible. Awful place, terrible customer service, dumpy storage units.

In reality, I was charged $3,502.62 with extra fees for storage ($278.42) and gas ($224.20) that were never disclosed or agreed to. On top of that, I was promised delivery within 7-10 days. What I later found out is that this only meant delivery to Zippy Shell's facility in the destination city, not to my actual new address. My container didn't arrive at their facility until September 3, and then they refused to deliver to my home until September 8. Customer service was dismissive and repeatedly hid behind "policy" instead of addressing the clear discrepancies. After researching, I found other customers reporting the same issues. I believe this reflects a pattern of deceptive business practices, and I cannot recommend Zippy Shell.
