How long is your rental agreement?

We offer month to month rentals for self-storage units and seasonal rentals for bulk storage (boats, campers, or larger items).

If I begin renting in the middle of a month, am I expected to pay for the full month?

No, we prorate the rental charge depending on the number of days you will occupy the unit for the initial month.

How do I reserve a storage unit?

1. From our website, click on "Reserve Unit." A new page will appear. 

2. Look for the size unit you are wanting to rent and click on 'Reserve Now for Free'. If there are no units available in the size you are currently needing, please feel welcome to join our Waiting List and we will contact you once this size becomes available. You can choose a specific unit number if there are multiple units available in the size you are looking for, or let the system automatically select a unit for you.

5. After payment is processed, you will receive an email with a link to electronically sign the Rental Agreement. Be sure to read through the agreement in its entirety.  At this point, you are welcome to begin moving your belongings into your storage unit.  

Do I have to give notice to you when I plan to move out?

Yes, a 15 day written notice is required prior to vacating a self-storage unit. You can also find an electronic vacancy notice on our website under the Storage Units tab & under the View Vacancy Notice. Simply fill in the information and click submit.

What information do I need to begin renting a self-storage unit?

You will need to provide a valid name, mailing address and phone number, as well as payment information to set up your online account. If you do not have access to a computer, we can set up an account for you over the phone.

Does a lock come with the self-storage unit?
