TLDR; Garbage, don't get fooled by their friendly veneer, they have no interest in actual customer…read moreservice. If need more than a basic locker to access 9-5/M-F, look somewhere else.
Originally picked XYZ because of their customer service, even though they were more expensive, and the staff seemed to understand after hours access was necessary for people who worked for a living, and were renovating their house so thus needed to move things in and out of the locker on a daily basis. They were fine granting it in 2 week blocks. Then something changed internally and we were forced to call the facility every day, during the day, to get access that night, even though everyone is issued a unique access code. That was annoying enough, but boy was I wrong.
Today, the day I was moving a large set of furniture to the locker, the staff forgot to grant the after-hours access even though I talked to them in person! (Their system is to write it on a post-it note and do it whenever they feel like it). Of course I also only find out at 7:05PM right after the office closes and no one picks up the phone. I now have to pay an extra $200 to keep the moving truck another day and park it in a random outdoor parking lot, unsupervised. In that one failure, the storage locker has now costed us almost the cost of the locker itself.
I met a couple my first day at 7:10PM who was in a similar situation where they had driven down from Barrie only to find after hours access hadn't been given to them and there was no one they could call to get access. I should have taken that as a sign and cancelled my locker right then and there.
I honestly would have been fine to pay an extra $10-$20 extra for blanket after-hours access, but instead their senior leadership choose to annoy their customers for no reason.
