All the staff is always on point and super professional. They always have answers to my questions and explain everything perfectly and the entire establishment is clean and super orderly at any given time of the day. Walter helped my check in to my unit and the whole process was smooth and easy. I walked in and was able to help me select the right unit and everyone here was so polite. This location is great with easily accessible highways. Perfect for all year round or longer

After exploring other places, I came here last minute in search of a solution. Ninah’s assistance over the phone definitely steered me in the right direction as I was driving (phone was on speakerphone, duh).
On location, Deserie welcomed me in from the storm with such calm collected energy, I was able to clear my thoughts and ground my feet. We determined the right size unit for my estimated need, and she even walked me through the building to show me different options until we found the storage unit that spoke to me.
Deserie’s patience is well trained, she provided me with alternate solutions/storage units in case of future adjustments, and solidified my confidence in choosing my Extra Space Storage location.
Human to Human business interactions that also sprout a few good laughs are the genuine moments greater brands strive for, kudos to Deserie!
I appreciate the tailored customer service, trained attention to detail, and overall “Pelican Hill Resort” styled experience - what an unexpected treat to my hectic day (similar feeling to finding a random cash paper bill on the sidewalk)!
Great techniques in setting an emotional anchor with the Extra Space Storage brand.

During a divorce transition in my life, I needed to quickly find a safe, secure, and affordable storage business for many of the assets I had. I was referred to Extra Space storage by a friend who also had a unit there. From day one when I met Walter it has been nothing but a great experience for me. I even upped my space to have two spaces now.
Walter and his team are always professional, knowledgeable and friendly, which to me is just as important as the other traits.
Anytime, I’ve had a question or any situation has arisen, everything was handled quickly and efficiently and to my full satisfaction.
I would highly recommend Extra Space storage, specifically the one on Woodley managed by Walter and his team (shout out to Nathan) that I am a customer of for any sort of storage needs you have.
