“Got my 1st unit with Wendell and 2nd unit with Randy and his wife he made me feel more comfortable putting my things in these units. I had a bad experience losing my military medals and unifroms so its hard to try a storage again. However when you have great folks like that gentlemen, Randy and their wives looking over things I feel much better. They have amazing customer service and keep up with the facility cleanliness. They offer the best rates in town in my opinion. We will definitely use this place in the future if needed. Thank you guys again..”
