Site is clean and accessible. 4 stars because I was caught off-guard by additional charge for lock and insurance, but this is my first time using a service like this so maybe that's normal.

This is the third year I'm using Extra Space to store a vehicle for the Winter. I called and spoke with Sam who helped get me set up. She answered all of my questions and made the process real easy. Thank you Sam!
