This place is a rip off. Your rent goes up a few times a year $100 or more. The manager is a very…read morerude man. Best too stay away.

When this storage company was run by old management and previous owner there were no issues. Since…read moreit has switched to Extra Space there has been multiple issues. First, the elevators; either one or the other has been broken. One elevator has been broken now for almost a month. The inside of the elevators are dirty and smear marks seem to never disappear off the walls. The floors of the storage unit never seemed to be swept. My wife and I move things in and out of our storage and dust and particles are always flying around. Those same dust and particles seem to always be there, some for weeks. With previous ownership, the floors were always cleaned and often we would see the employees sweeping and taking out the trash. With prior management and owner, the AC was always on. The inside was nice and cool and you hardly broke a sweat when moving things in an out of your storage, now it's like a sauna in there and makes it uncomfortable to even more a little. Since Extra Space has taken over, the AC has been non-existent. The last thing is the gate time. The new hours were an upgrade from previous management, 6am-10pm, but the only issue is that offer the elevators are turned off before 10 or the gate doesn't open. I was there at 930 trying to get to my unit and my code did not work. My wife and I have a small business and need to get to our inventory, but when the hours listed don't match, this causes us to lose money. This was never an issue with previous management.

Huge move from San Jose, CA to Daytona Beach, Fl. Coast to coast…read more I feel I dodged a bullet with many moving brokers trying to secure a contract through a hard sell and promise of *literally* unbelievable rate quotes. Doing further research I found there's a common and growing scam to quote low, then hold your stuff hostage until you pay surprise extra and extreme charges. Anyway, I went with U-Pack after researching the various container drop-off and load options. Contract terms were straightforward and no surprises on drop off. Both the start and end, U-Pack and their shipment team were super easy going with the schedule. Just call a day before drop-off/pick-up and they were able to make it happen. I had 3 cubes and two went to destination and the 3rd was stored by U-pack for a bit while I secured a longer term storage unit, and they dropped it off there. Make no mistake, packing and loading the cubes is a huge freakin' task. Do it in layers with large flat items working as "walls" to help hold stuff in. And ratchet strap each layer. A special call out to JW, the forklift operator in San Jose! He was one with that machine and able to maneuver with extreme skill and precision, including a very narrow and long driveway with tight gate and cypress tree. He's a magic man and was able to place the cubes perfectly between sidewalk and street and back yard driveway - saving me $ and headache dealing with the San Jose tax assessor regarding a permit if cubes block street parking and/or sidewalk. Other thanks to Skee (Ski?) at the drop in Florida. Also skilled w/ the lift and super accommodating on placing the cubes where I wanted. Finally, Gerry (Jerry?) and Lorenzo at dispatch. You'll be given a pretty huge window (like the whole day) for drop-off/pickup, but I'd give a call and they'd be able to narrow that window to a couple hours.

We moved in 3 different stages, each time using 4 pods. U-Pack did an amazing job. The customer…read moreservice was exceptional, the driver was courteous and helpful, and everything was delivered as promised. I absolutely U-Pack for any move you may have.
