    Some bug with brown marks/trail on my childhood toy Ninja Turtle and this only happened when it was stored in StaxUp storage.
    Dan T.

    DO NOT USE STAXUP! It's all INFESTED by fleas, roaches, spiders, termites, moths and even bed bugs! I've seen all of these but most of all were fleas! It's hard to believe but it's very true. The storage has two side walls that do not reach the top so it allows bugs to fly from one storage unit to another! And their insurance is such a ruse they do not hold any responsibility AT ALL to any damages!! I will tell you what happened to me in TJ and how Stax Up treated me and provide pictures. And they dare said that nobody complains about it, I see about at least 4 very bad, traumatizing Yelp reviews here! I live in Tijuana so I was trying to store my stuff in StaxUp while slowly bringing back stuff to TJ for 3 months. Then I realized in my new fully furnished apartment where I was already staying for 3 weeks became infested. I thought it was the bed that had bed bugs. We called 3 fumigators then it went away but it came back every time I brought back stuff from the storage! I cannot believe this! My landlord even gave me a new mattress, a new headboard, and new box spring and they still got infested as we were bringing the rest of the stuff in! I called the 4th fumigator until it went away. But during that I lost so many things, so much of money, had to throw away even the second mattress, headboard, box spring, threw away my infested luggage bags, slept on the hard floor for weeks, bought so many products to kill these fleas (but I also got a few bed bug bites too), had to launder so many times like crazy, had to MOVE!!! MOVE TO ANOTHER HOUSE WHICH HAD NO FURNITURE! And why do I say it's definitely StaxUp's fault was because when I moved to the new CLEAN apartment and stayed there for a week and brought things slowly from old apartment it was fine, no more fleas. BUT when I brought my one last bag with stuff from StaxUp storage the next week, it infests my new apartment too! Can you believe it?? Life was hell. Man, I came to TJ from California to save money during Corona Virus times but I ended losing so much more! And to make matters worse, Stax Up gave us a form where we could so-called claim by the long haired specky lady from the desk. We painstakingly jot down everything that we have lost which was about $1000 not including having to move to a completely new apartment expenses!! We showed them almost a hundred pictures of the fleas, even termites, our bites, its fecal matter, deposits but they said if I cannot take the picture of the fleas or the deposits SHOWING the storage unit itself, then I can't claim a single thing! HOW CAN I CAPTURE AN EXTREME CLOSE UP PICTURE OF A VERY TINY FLEA ON MY BAG WITH THE STORAGE UNIT BEHIND?? Try and do it now with your camera, you simply can't! All the pictures I managed to capture were fleas or its excrement on fabrics, wood and stuff. I can't tilt it up to show that it's happening in the storage space from StaxUp. It's completely impossible to do! Try and zoom in on your phone of a tiny miniscule bug, trying to make it seen clearly, while capturing in the background of the storage unit! Impossible! And a lot of things were happening at home too to the things we have lost too. You pay $10 more for so called insurance but read the fine not-so fine print, trying to use newfangled jargon words to confuse you but basically it does say it will not take any responsibility of any kind of damages and I think including damages done by bugs too (trust me guys, moths everywhere the moment you enter the place). They asked me why did I not complain sooner. I said because I thought it was my new place that was infested but later on I realized it was StaxUp that was infested. A place so high advanced as America and as clean and proper as San Diego shouldn't have and cause health problems to people in their business storage unit cos it could spread EVERYWHERE!! To other innocent people's belongings. And you can't do anything!

    UPDATED IN RESPONSE TO THE FACILITIES' DISMISSAL OF MY REVIEW. Of course the facility will claim no responsibility for rodents, even though I have seen other reviews mention rodent activity there! (Both on Google and both within the last year. See attached pictures!) However I did mention the fact that there were live mice (still crawling on my belongings) in the boxes that I'd left on the property when I moved out. Which was why I refused to pay any additional fee's. Secondly, how DARE YOU imply that I was storing "very dirty" items in my unit. The reason I am posting the review now instead of over 6 months ago the way I SHOULD HAVE is that when I attempted to file a claim with my insurance company I was told to wait since my belongings were transferred to a different storage facility and I wouldn't know the extent of the damage until I took my belongings (HOUSEHOLD GOODS. Never had any problem with mice in my home so unless there was an obvious infestation at your facility my items shouldn't have been disturbed) to their final destination. Otherwise I wouldn't have paid DOUBLE at a new facility to store my belongings the final 6 months before moving in to my new place. As mentioned in my review (if you actually took the time to read it) only part of my belongings were disturbed and damaged at that time. Mainly my clothes which were actually hung in the unit to save box space. Hindsight is 20/20. If I'd known then that even our meticulous inspection of my boxes and belongings to ensure that we didn't take any of YOUR disgusting mice to the new facility wouldn't matter unless we took the time then to CLEAN all the urine off boxes and furniture as well (not possible with the time constraint) I most definitely would have started proceedings not only to file a claim immediately, but documented all of the live rodent activity. Such as the mouse that clung to my Pea Coat for dear life no matter how hard I hit the coat. Or the 2 mice living in my artificial tree, or even the 4 mice having a grand ol' time in an open box containing paint supplies. Trust me I would have BLASTED your facility to the news if need be, however I was told to "wait". NEVER having encountered this issue before (and I have had my belongings in storage for 2 years in the past) I followed instructions. Now I wish I hadn't. However as mentioned I had 3 other individuals with me on move out who would gladly attest to my account of what happened!

Entire management has never contacted me/come by to survey all my property damage, and COMPLETELY IGNORE THIS SITUATION AND ME. Noth facility manager and the office refuse to give me their insurance claim form to file claim to their insurance company for $2500. The facility manager anf staff engage in office gossip, and the staff goes out of its way to make clearing the unit very difficult. There is only one garbage bin for the entire facility, and the garbage and recycle bins stay locked. I have to drag trash from the back of the facility all the way to the front where the entrance is. I waste so much time dragging garbage to the garbage bin all the way in the front in 100-degree weather. All this rodent-droppings and pee exposes me to Hantavirus, and there is no air ventilation in the building. And after all this. Otay Mesa Self Storage has ignored all my property damage due to rodents getting in my unit, but had the nerve to send me a bill? The facility manager dismissed rodents as no big deal because he has rats in his apartment complex where he lives. THIS STORAGE FACILITY IS FALLING APART AND NOT WELL MSINTAINED AT ALL. ONLY ABOUT COLLECTING CASH. This storage unit also has VERY NASTY POLICIES to charge $200 for trash left because no garbage are near to discard trash, and also charge $250 if you leave the facility late. ABSOLUTELY AWFUL BUSINESS.

We stopped by the A Storage Place's Del Sol location to check out their prices and availability. There is a lot to like about this place. This is in a nice location where the surrounding area is not too crowded or busy. They have daily office hours from 9am-6pm. Gate hours for tenants is from 5am-8pm. They seem to have a lot of security measures - special access to get onto the premises and through any door, as well as surveillance cameras. There are a variety of unit sizes; it is just a matter of finding an available one in the size that you need. They have a number of units that have access from the outside and also some that are completely indoors. Their buildings have AC which is a major plus! Indoor units also have access to carts that may be used to move belongings to and from and elevators for areas with a second floor. They also have music playing quietly throughout which is especially great for the indoor units so that it is not all quiet and eerie. All areas looked to be clean and well maintained. The staff was very nice and helpful. And, prices seemed to be reasonable. The only downfall for us was availability, which is definitely not a negative thing to judge them by. Guessing they really are as good as they appear, so why wouldn't their units be pretty much filled up?

    Ever heard the saying better late than never?…read more I am an ex long time customer that left on good terms. Now that I am Yelping a lot I wanted to give my overall review about my time with Otay Self storage. i will give the pros and cons and also some tips :) Hopefully the names are accurate its been a while. I was a customer for about 7-8 years. I signed my first lease when this was half the size and the 2nd half was all dirt. The manager at the time I think her name was Lydia was very nice and half the reason why i went with this location. The other half of my decision was location. If your looking for the closest storage unit near the border, this is it. You can walk to here in a good 10-15 mins fromn the border. I had a large prime storage unit right in front. I kept my SUV and several belongings in there. Since Lydia, I believe the next manager was Luis? and then Humberto. They were also very nice and i was sad to see Luis go, he was awesome. Here are the Pro's about this place - Extremely secure, never had anything stolen nor heard of anything being taken from this lot. They have several camera and overnight roaming security. It's so secure that if a cat gets in, it can set off the sensors. I've been there in the early am before they opened when security would come by and do a check for motion sensors. Both times it was a cat running around :) See my pic of one of the cat burglars :) Location - everyone says location is key -it is located in a corner sort of (It used to be a closed off road years ago, but since have opened it up to traffic. It is very close to the border. Staff - Turnover wasn't a big issue when I was there, they had mostly the same staff with just a few manager changes. All extremely friendly, even to the point when they were ready to close, I would call them from the freeway and they would stay open a few extra mins for me. Units - the units themselves were in great shape. Early arrival- Most employees were early arrivals in the morning, that helps people that need to go to work on time. Giveaways -people are always giving free stuff away to each other. I had several storage neighbors that gave me excess stuff they weren't using and also when they are moving out. I returned the favor and gave away furniture and some electronics when I moved out. Cons: Very few: Rodents, sorry its Otay and there are lots of open fields out here. That's a fact of life and nature, nothing Otay Storage has done wrong. The units themselves can get dusty and dirty over time, please keep that in mind when storing valuables. Cars can sometimes block your unit, it can be a pain to find them and tell them to move. Especially when you under time restraints. This applies to outdoor units. They had free Wi-Fi then it got abused so they took it away. Not sure if it's back on again. Tips: Get a ground level unit, it can get extremely hot in these units during the summer and the last thing you want to do is go with an upstairs storage unit. Buy covers for your mattress and valuables, it can get dusty and should keep the little rodents out. Overall treat the employees with respect and that is what you will get right back. I loved my time here and I was sad to go. if I ever need a unit again you got my business!

That wasn't the problem with me the problem was when I got a random call on a Saturday morning from Cesi an employee. Let me tell you exactly what happened grab some popcorn cause this is good. So Cesi called me and asked 'Hi Is this Jonathan I say Yes hi, she said have you been to your unit lately? I say no it's been a while at least maybe a couple of months She says ok because the unit is 'open I say what? She said yes! It wasn't you? I say no! She says well it's open and it looks like there's a red machine outside of it is that yours? I say yes that's my welder she says ok well it looks like it's been broken into. I say what! she says yes. I need to know if I can have your permission to drill the lock. I say what? She says yes I need your permission to drill the lock and fix the door, right now I'll send you an e-mail and you can electronically sign it, so we can drill the lock I say Ok, not thinking right at that moment. Then I asked hey wait a minute what if I'm missing stuff what did they take anything? can you check the cameras her response was oooh nooo that's going to take HOURS! What! She says yes oh and you have to make a police report. At this point in My mind, I'm like hhm.. you know what let me come over I'm only 30 minutes away. She says ok, and hangs up on me. I was like no way! So I called my girlfriend briefly explained what was going on and asked her to meet me there with the key. We show up and I say Hi are you Cesi? She says yes, Hi I say I'm Jonathan she says Oh yeah what did you have in there because the system says you only have toats in there? I say yes the toats have stuff in them. She says O well it says you only have toats in there. I say can we go to the unit she says yeah! We get there and the bottom right of the door is completely ripped out of its track making a small crawl hole at this point I look right at Cesi and Ask ' Do customers normally do this? She says what? I said break the door like this, Why would you ask me if it was me that did this? She said no I didn't ask you that I said yes you did then I said why wouldn't you ask me to file a police report? She said let me get my coworker who I don't even know his name he came over and said what's the problem I said nothing I'm trying to figure out what I need to do. He said it's a process you have to file a police report I said ok why wouldn't you guys tell me this from the beginning, he said it's up to you I said you mean to tell me that I have to make the police report and you don't? He says we already called the cops and made a police report, Now YOU HAVE TO MAKE A POLICE REPORT! I say that's gonna take hours it's Saturday this isn't an emergency he says well what do you want me to do? I say nothing man he says screaming at me LISTEN TO ME YOU FENING AHOLE I WORK AT NATIONAL CITY IT HAPPENS ALL TIME OUT THERE I'M TELLING YOU THE PROCESS. I say oh so you're used to this then he gets even more mad gets inches from my face and says screaming off the top of his lungs LISTEN! I look right into his eyes and say 'I'M LISTENING . Again Screaming at ME YOU DON'T COME HERE AND CAUSE A SEEN YOU DONT UNDERSTANT I EFFING HATE! THIS JOB!! At this point, my girlfriend gets in between us and says hey calm down. He says you need to figure out if you're missing any shit! And figure out what you're gonna do with your shit! I say REALLY! At this point, I tell my girlfriend Let go! We're leaving the whole way out this guy is Screaming! at the top of his lungs saying how he hates this job! And I needed to be careful. So we leave and from a block away I call the police, Dispatch asks me what happened I tell her all that's going on then I say ' They said they already made a police report and now I have to make one she says ok whats the storage aging I tell he its the Extra Space Storage 3085 Del Sol Blvd, San Diego, CA 92154 she says and they said that already made the bake in the report I said that what they told me. She says no there's no report of any break-ins from that place at all for today hmm. I say I'm sorry that's what they told me. She says ok we'll get an Officer out to you asap! I kid you not all I did was drive back to the storage a block away and the officer was already pulling up! WOW! 2 minutes they were there. I told the office what was going on we went in there and the door was already fixed with a new lock my girlfriend had unlocked it when we left so they were able to fix it and set a new lock in the time we were gone. the officer asked me if anything was missing I said I don't know I haven't checked he says ok I'm gonna give you an incident number and if you later find missing stuff call us. a week later I get another increase!
