The man inside begrudgingly came and let me in, did not introduce himself at all and I still don't know his name he told me he was the only one working there for the past two weeks and he closes early because he has a 15 minute checklist that he needs to go through before he leaves. So even though the time says open until 6 PM they actually close at like 540. I'm not a complicated person I'm not a take a long time kind of guy so I was fully prepared to just sign some documents and be on my way. I knew it was close to closing time and I wasn't going to take up this man's time more than like three minutes, but instead he had to sit me down at his desk as if I was a student in trouble and proceed to dump on me about how he's the only one that's there and even though I was told by the Customer Service people over the phone to just come in to discuss a lock situation (cause you need a super special cylinder lock which they alone have the master key to which I don't find comforting at all and so I attached two of my own locks to my unit.) apparently I should have known beforehand not to listen to the Customer Service people over the phone which he proceeded to drill me about as well. At this point I had about enough and I was just wanting to move into my unit and get things started so my patience was thin and I finally cut this man off and I said "OK what do I need to do to just move in right now" and he told me that I could sit in my car out in the 110° heat and do everything online because his checklist. I was completely insulted, I went outside and started a online check-in which I would've done beforehand again had the person over the phone at Customer Service not told me to "just come in" to see if I can get the lock price ($20) removed so while I was doing this out in the 110 degree heat, the move-in special suddenly disappeared so I tried calling them, I was person number one in line and I had zero people ahead of me and Customer Service would be with me momentarily. I listened to this and sat there for 20 minutes while it told me I was number one in line and zero people ahead of me. During this time I went online to chat to Customer Service on there which to my dismay was only a basic function AI bot. ** just a quick note to companies you really need to stop putting these bots as your main point of contact and making it so impossible to get a hold of someone, these bots are nothing more than redirection hyperlinks with an algorithm meant to direct you to different parts of the website in case you're too stupid to find them on your own. If it was something I could solve on my own I would just do it. You need to stop Underestimating the everyday Customer and make it more simple to just contact a live person, and also by the way making the bot take a couple seconds before it gives iT's algorithm Answer doesn't convince us anymore that it's a Human typing out an Answer, It just infuriates us** off my soapbox. So by the time all was said and done I managed to just work around it open a new browser in incognito mode go and managed to find the promotion again, paid the stupid lock fee because, whatever at this point, and moved into my unit. Oh but I should also add before doing so, I actually had to drive away to go charge my car because this whole process took so long and I had to run the AC the whole time because the 110° heat. The facility itself is actually not bad there's a sense of creepy atmosphere after the sun goes down when you're outside but for the most part it's very secure inside, people cannot hop from one paddock to the other via the ceiling which happens at a lot of these places. this was just my personal experience and my review of it, I did decide to stay at the unit because I was very happy with overall facility I sincerely hope my experience is not your experience.

    AVOID AT ALL COST if timing, communication, and reliability are important to you as you plan your…read moremove. We used Desert Moving Co. & Storage to assist with our move into a new home in Palm Springs. Specifically, we leveraged their receiving, storage, and delivery services to assist as this was a vacation home where we live in Los Angeles full time. Given the logistics involved, timing and coordination were important. As we purchased most of the furniture for the new home, they were shipped, and stored at Desert Moving until we were ready to coordinate the move into our new home. It took two weeks to be able to lock down Desert Moving for an actual date. What was even more frustrating was the fact that they were supposed to be supplying us with a running list/inventory of deliveries received to include inspection for damage etc.. This never happened. It required repeated requests for an inventory of what was received and when. This never came until very late the night before the "scheduled delivery". I took the day off from work, drove to Palm Springs and waited in an empty home for move that never happened. I was told in the afternoon that a crew was not available. It required a significant effort on my part to get them to deliver the next day which required a complete scramble of my work schedule to accommodate their change in availability. (NOTE) A chair that Federal Express had record of delivering to Desert Moving was no where to be found. Desert Moving said that Fed Ex often lie about delivery when they lose merchandise. In turn, we went back to the manufacturer and a new chair delivered directly to our home. During the move in, several outdoor chairs were damaged by the movers when being assembled. A supervisor came on site, we reviewed the chairs together, and he said they would follow up for resolution. Never heard from anyone. Shortly there after we received our bill and I emailed their accounting department and the service rep with whom we had been working to inquire about reimbursement/replacement of the damaged chairs and received no response. Next thing I knew, they charged our card on file for the full amount of the invoice. After several calls and emails, I finally connected with someone who told me our service rep was no longer with the company. This does not explain their accounting department not responding to my inquires. Very long story short. What should have been a very simple fix- replacing the damaged chairs which were actually very inexpensive, turned into weeks of emails and phone calls. I was finally connected to a manager who after giving me the run around for weeks, came up with a solution. The chair that went missing, miraculously appeared and they offered to deliver the chair for me for free in lieu of paying for the damaged chairs. As I shared they lost the chair, we had it replaced over a month ago. Still no offer to make good on the damaged goods that 3 of their employees including a supervisor acknowledged while onsite during our move. Desert Moving seems incredibly unorganized. Poor communication, terrible service, and based on the shady experience with someone at the managerial level, I find them to unethical in their business practices.

    DO NOT HIRE!! I hired Desert Movers to give a small local company some business. However, although…read moreMike, the owner, seemed nice and professional over the phone initially, the men he sent over (3 of them for $120/hr) were awful. They failed to wrap my wood furniture with the moving blankets Mike told me to get thereby causing extensive damage to my furniture during transport. I have never had such a negative experience with movers. I expect a few minor damage or scratches here and there but nothing like this. First the movers caused a huge crack in the tile of the house I was moving out of (which Mike has yet to remedy), then the failure of the men to properly wrap my wood furniture in the blankets caused extensive cracks, scratches and dents.
