I have rented many different storage units in the past. This surpassed by far all of them in customer service. This was the easiest rental process ever, thankfully, as I was pressed for time. Thank you, National Storage!

The rental process with Megan was fast and easy! Megan is very professional and friendly. Being able to do everything online is a huge plus! They also offer Veteran discounts! EDIT: Though Megan originally offered me a Veterans discount, it was NOT honored by her higher ups. I also was charged for insurance that I didn't ask for. Possibly it is an automatic addition included in the contract I should have read. ?

First storage place I've ever gotten and rented a truck it was very happy and pleased with it. Got me exactly what I needed! Could be a little cheaper and for the pay I wished I could have gotten 2 months free instead of 1. Especially when I rented a truck also. Other than that very happy! ?

Awesome storage unit and awesome people who work there! Sasha I believe her name is was super accommodating because I did go a few days over the month, she also was super helpful with all my questions.

I have had a storage unit here for almost 2 years just moved out today. Never had any problems with staff and the few times I called they were very helpful and polite. The only problem I did have was when I first moved in there were sooooo many spiders all over and around my unit (which is to be expected) but I took care of that and never had a problem sense. Thank you for the storage space. Very greatful.

Wow, the staff was extra helpful while assisting me with a lost key for my storage unit. Sasha, the office administrator, made notes, and was very diligent about informing me of the timeline when I'd be able to get back in, and obtain my belongings for an upcoming move. So was the rest of the staff very helpful and the premises well maintained. Will definitely go back for my storage needs in the future.

Colby Jarrell

I've never rented a Uhaul before and the app had me feeling like a complete dolt, so I went into the national mini office on KL and Taylor very patiently walked me through the whole process and got me set up with the right size truck.

Me and my fiancé rented a unit for a few months when we were apartment hunting. All of our things were in a u-pack storage cube. The girls in the office were very understanding and allowed me to have it delivered to the storage facility and left on site overnight until it could be removed the following day. Would definitely recommend this place for your storage needs.

I was trying to find a solution to a storage problem. I have had a storage unit here at KL since 2015. I called and talked to Julie to see if she had any ideas. We did not come up with a solution. A couple of hours later, I got a call from Julie. She had taken it upon herself to help me. I am so thankful that Julie called me back and helped me. She went above and beyond. Great people at KL.

The facility is very well taken care of the staff are understanding and friendly, the prices are what you want from your storage unit they offer insurance for your unit that covers it from windstorms, burglary, fire, vandalism, and earthquakes and as a Michigander our weather is so crazy I love that they offer that kind of coverage. The drive up gave makes it easy for you big truck drivers and ontop of that they offer usuals to help with your move. All in all I am truly blessed to have found something so convenient and amazing

A big thanks to Taylor, Everything was so simple from start to finish. We needed a storage unit very quickly as my elderly father was moving to Tennessee with me. And we did not have a way to move everything and storage is very expensive where I live. We got half price for a outside 10' x 10' for 5 months when we will be able to get the rest. Awesome experience!

While I had a storage unit (5' × 5'). I paid 71.00$ . I gave them a 2 week notice before moving out. Then I find out that I don't get refunded after the $71.00 I paid for just a 6 day stay. Total BS. I'm on disability. No wonder rich is getting richer.

Start to finish a bad experience. On our first visit we couldn't get in because they changed our code (didn't tell us) and when we went to move out they had placed their own lock on our unit (also didn't tell us). I was told they could have someone on-site to take it off, two days later. It took numerous calls to get this resolved, which is no easy feat since the number on the office window loops to no where. The only way you can talk to someone is to pretend like you are buying a unit.

If I could give less than 1, I would. Rented this unit for my niece when she had to move. No one ever in the office. The unit was vacated on about 10/24/2021. We are being invoiced for 3 months AFTER things were moved out and management was notified. They sent to collections, however, this BUSINESS did not contact us. Now this collection venue has taken my state refund. NEVER rent from them. This is bad business folks. Also reporting to the BBB.

Late fees are insane, never had a $100 late fee in a storage unit before but the biggest problem is that there's NEVER anyone IN office. I've been trying to pay for my unit for 2 days now and there's just NOBODY there, no sign saying they're having issues, no nothing. Basically looks like they just decided not to come into work. Need to pay for my unit so I can move my stuff to a storage facility that actually keeps office hours.

Unfortunately I had back funeral’s for my brother and grandma. Then I ended up catching Covid. Which set me back two months on my rental payments. I ended up having to pay for three months at once. Plus two late fees and something else about auctioneers fee. Even though I paid they, for some reason broke my lock off, and told me I was responsible for buying another one. So basically broke my lock, and left my unit unlocked. With all my belongings in it. I was very well mannered when I spoke with the guy at the desk. But his address to me was rude! Haven’t had a chance to see if anything is missing. I also had a previous unit that got broken into, and they did nothing to accommodate me for my loss. At this point. National mini storage sucks. Plus their the most expensive in town.

Moved 500 miles to this storage unit. Arrived at 930pm Saturday. They said the storage unit was ready for me to move in. WRONG!! The lock was on it!! I had to have the truck back on Monday at 11am so Sunday I decided to move my things in the storage unit. Everyone that was helping me had to back to work on Monday!! I chose to put my things in another storage unit that didn’t have a lock on it and was way bigger than I needed. Now they are telling me me I have to move my things into the storage unit that I was assigned. Why did they say it was ready to move in??????? I’m so mad!!!

Update 2 months after previous posts. Lights are still blown, & its obvious the owner doesn't care about the young ladies attitude, because the owner never mentioned it. However that's the reason as consumers, we can take our money elsewhere. All moved out to a newer more modern facility, you see it was never about money, I had a larger unit for 2 years. #happynow #greatcustomerservice

I rented a climate control unit. I checked up on my unit, and there was no AC. It was 91 degrees out. This caused damage to some items. They were very hard to work with, terrible communication, and was not willing to give any compensation once so ever. They also could not tell me when the AC would be back on. The climate control rate is not cheap…

Rented a 5x10 unit for close to 5 years. They raise the rent at least $10 every year. I started off paying less than $100 ( possibly $85 ) and am now paying $135 for this unit that rents for $109 per their website. When I asked about it, the person I talked to just said that they raise the rent occasionally. I’m paying $26 more than what they rent this little unit for. Needless to say, I am moving my stuff out of this place and moving to a more secure storage place, with cameras on every corner. The unit I’m moving into is twice as big and $40 less. SHAME ON YOU for the outrageous price hikes on your units.
