I had a wonderful experience with Jeannie at Extra Storage Space. She was incredibly polite and genuinely customer-oriented throughout the entire process. Her professionalism stood out right away, and her communication skills are excellent — she explained everything clearly and made sure I had all the information I needed. It’s rare to find someone who is not only efficient, but also warm and attentive. Jeannie truly made the experience smooth and stress-free. I highly recommend working with her!
