Straight-up, no high-pressure sales, the property is very secure, but access is easy. The hours listed through Yelp are for the front business office. Gate access for existing customers remains open until 9 pm. This is not a 24 hour access facility. I have a larger, climate-controlled unit. One of the nice perks of this place is the overhead motion-detecting light system. I don't know if all inside units have that, but it's nice and not usual. It is not cheap to store belongings in secure climate control, but I think the prices here are reasonably competitive. The owner told me that if they decide to do price increases they space them about 11 months apart and the increases would be $3 or $5 at a time not $20 or $50 like I watch the other places do. Very few people these days can afford to pay for a whole year's worth of storage at a time. I see a lot of these places lure people in with nice introductory rates and promotions, to then jack the prices way up once they are all moved in. Moving is expensive. Storage is expensive. If you aren't careful you could lose everything. I did not take my decision to store my property here lightly, and like I said so far I am happy with the experience.

So this is a storage facility located on Industrial, in downtown Saline Michigan. I've actually…read morerented from this location in the past, when it still had a staffed office. You would come up to the facility, punch your code in, and the gate would open. If you needed a lock or boxes, packing material, or just help of any kind, there would be someone in the small office at the front of the Facility. I recently moved back to Michigan and had need of a storage unit again lol and went back to U STOR Self Storage ... some things have definitely changed lol! So the entrance is now closer to Michigan Avenue, and the small office where you used to be able to talk to someone is gone. You can now only enter into the outer portion of where the office was located. Once inside there is an automated kiosk. You can pay your bill through the kiosk, you can put a unit number to get information about your unit, and you can rent a unit through the kiosk as well. Pretty much anything that you would be able to do by phone, you can go ahead and do on the kiosk. For instance, I had rented a smaller unit than I actually needed, and even though there wasn't anyone there that I could interact with, I was able to go to the kiosk and rent a larger unit, then close my previous unit, and have them connect the two so that it was prorated for the next month! Had I needed a new lock as well, there's also a small vending machine where you could pay and the lock drops down. So while it's a lot less personal than it used to be, no happy faces to interact with, and certainly no "please take a piece of free candy" bucket by the door, but it does well enough for what you need. You still have to punch your code in and the gate goes up, it's just in a slightly different location and you'll have to go through the kiosk for any information you need. Honestly I kind of miss there being a person there, because if I need an extra boxes or tape, I could get that too, but I do understand that everybody is cutting back and they've at least added a kiosk that is pretty user-friendly. All in all I think it's just as good as before and give it that my situation was a little complicated anyway it was easy enough to work through. There's also a phone number that you can call while you're working at the kiosk, and that helped as well. I definitely would still recommend the used store self storage in Saline Michigan.

I had a 20x30 for that price at "extra storage" There is only one method of entry to the storage units. That door has been broken since January 28 2024. After repeated calls to local office and corporate, no response has been provided as to when the door will be operational. Further, no one is ever in the office "during business hours". Local management is inept at best and conflict avoidant at best. Calling corporate resulted in speaking to a call center rep working at home with screaming children in the background who repeatedly referred me to the non-responsive local site management office. My last month's rent was mysteriously refunded after a call to corporate, I didn't ask for that. But thanks? However, by executing the refund, their automated processes simply flagged me as "late" which further caused their keypad entry system to disallow my keypad access code. So smart.

I would strongly caution against using this company. I hired them to remove a fold-out couch from…read moremy third floor. When they arrived I told them I wasn't sure if the couch would need to be disassembled or the doors taken off their hinges in order to get the couch down the stairs. They assured me that they were professionals and knew how to handle it. Two hours later they had managed to get the couch out of the house after knocking three large holes in the plaster on the staircase. When I told them I didn't want to pay until the plaster was repaired, the movers were instructed to sit in front of my house in their truck until I paid them. I figured that my issue was with the management, so I paid the movers after speaking with a manager who assured me that everything would be taken care of. Long story short: it wasn't taken care of. When I finally spoke to an upper-level manager -- some two weeks later -- he immediately behaved as if I were trying to scam him -- claiming that I had had construction done since the couch was delivered which made it impossible to remove and that I was attempting to get him to re-plaster my entire house. When I said I just wanted him to repair the plaster they had damaged, he said his liability only covered 60 cents per pound of the object being moved so he would only be able to pay about $150 (Not sure where that figure came from.) and that it was my job to find a person to repair the plaster. (This was after the lower-level manager assured me that they had a person who could do the work.) I'm fine with people making mistakes, but in business and life people who don't acknowledge their mistakes or work to make them right are not worth dealing with. This company seems to operate well as long as everything goes smoothly. As soon as you have a justifiable complaint -- that, for instance, your property has been damaged -- you will be treated with aggression, condescension and contempt. Other reviews here echo that same sentiment and are worth paying attention to. This situation is very simple: I paid the full bill to have couch removed. I have not been compensated for any of the damage done to the plaster on my staircase. Anything else is noise. Let the buyer beware.

They took great care in moving our furniture, even navigating super heavy pieces through narrow spaces with finesse. Many boxes of delicate kitchenware were moved without any issues or breakage. They were happy to move stuff into the right rooms and position/set things up to make our lives easier. The move did end up take 1.5 hours longer than quoted, which was $$ more, but I think some of our furniture pieces were heavier than expected and we probably ended up with more boxes than expected.

TLDR; the movers stood around/in the truck most of the morning, my husband and I moved majority of…read morethe items, they damaged our driveway and final bill was about twice the quote. Unfortunately, my husband and I had a nightmare of a move with Wondermove. This review is true to the events that happened and I would just like to prevent someone else from having to deal with the added stress this company caused. We were moving from a 1,000sqft home that had "larger items" consisting of 2 beds, 2 couches and a dresser. We were quoted 3.5-4 hours and $760-$926. The movers (Dae and Travis) showed up at 8:45am and we were excited to get moving. We took a walkthrough of the house and they started to move the larger items. This is where it all went downhill. I was finishing packing a few boxes in the kitchen and noticed I hadn't seen the movers coming in and out as expected. I then realized only one mover would occasionally come in and grab a box. I asked Dae if Travis was okay and he said he was "playing tetris" in the truck. It was now 11 and we still had plenty to pack up. They both stood around/in the truck for most of the morning and occasionally came in to move an item as I asked them about it. My husband and I didn't know what else to do to get them to move the items so we started moving all of the boxes and workout equipment up from the basement and setting it all outside of the truck. I didn't want to be confrontational but was absolutely dumbfounded that we were doing majority of the work that we paid the service to do. After having to leave items behind because they left their own inventory in the truck we finally departed for our new home around 1. We get to the new house and they scrape our driveway with the underride guard. I watch Travis run around and try to kick away the asphalt as if nothing happened. They then attempt to drive up the driveway front ways and beech the truck. The underride guard is now scraping the cul-de-sac asphalt and the front tires are digging up the asphalt on our driveway. We sat waiting for a tow truck to arrive at 3:30. We now are unloading the truck (my husband and I again doing a lot of the work) to get this job done. Majority of the boxes ended up in the front room (not as labeled). The hardest I saw them work was when it was 5o'clock and the truck wasn't even half empty. The final bill ended up being $1,533. We later spoke to Nick (manager) on the phone and he determined the best he could do is offer 20% for us repair to the driveway ourselves. He said that we should have called someone when we noticed the movers were not doing their job, which was a baffling response, then rushed us off the phone. I couldn't be more disappointed in this company and regret choosing them.

Had to wait until Saturday when someone was there to get into it....UGH! frustrating!!! OH well! I need it for about 2 weeks or so and I'll be gone. Just so expensive and I would not recommend them.
