10x10 Storage Units

This was our first experience with a storage facility. It was a great first experience. Our goal was 6 months and we were able to achieve our goal of clearing the unit out in that time. The facility was always clean and Jim was always helpful whenever I had a question. Lee up the good work.

I called several storage companies to gather information about their availability and services. By far Jim was the most diligent and professional. His follow up was excellent and he went out of his way to provide great service. I would highly recommend you deal with Jim at Safeguard for your storage needs.

We had a very pleasant experience signing up for a unit today. Jim was thorough in showing us around, explaining all the ins and outs and really took the time to make sure all our questions were answered. Genuinely good guy. The facility is clean, well kept, quiet and secure. I feel good about my decision. Thanks Jim!

Kevin was amazing!!! We went in looking to cancel because the price was so high (due to a change from the company - $60 increase) and he was able to put us in a perfect unit, and at a perfect price. He walked us to each unit and let us know that our home items would fit in the new unit. Individuals like Kevin are who make tenants stay at storage units. Thank you, Kevin!!
