- MRMorgan RussoSep 8, 20261.0I'd give them negative stars if I could. Our unit is not climate controlled, has been broken into, and our rent has consistently been raised with no upgrades to security or facilities. Run away! Signed a contract for $84/month. In less than a year, I'm paying $116/month for the same. Scam.
- BMBeth MSep 6, 20262.0Location is great just off I96 and 23. I have a code to open the gate and the gate always worked. Facility is well maintained. Just be aware the rate can more than double in 4-9 months. I signed a contract in January at $24 a month, never received an email that the rate changed to $52 a month in September. I called Sparebox and was told they sent the email with the rate change a month ago. When I asked what email they sent it to they said "your name at ymail.com". Apparently they didn't know my name, and I never had a ymail.com email address. Up until the middle of July I received emails from them at my correct email address. I asked when my email changed and they said January 26. Funny thing is they changed my rate to $52, and the rate for someone new is $42. I like the facility, but the experience in how they increased the cost just felt wrong.

- GBGarrett BrownJul 23, 20261.0Over 60 units broken into and vandalized, and they do not want to cooperate with the sheriff's department on the investigation. Second time an incident like this has happened in 1 year. I don't trust my belongings with Sparebox and regret storing with them. Not to mentioned the insurance company they use by default, Alchemy, is very scrutinous and uncooperative.
- LLLiamJul 11, 20263.0It's a storage unit. The parking lot is broken and falling apart with massive pot holes everywhere. There's only one camera on the entire property and it's at the front gate, which has been left wide open for over a week now. I've heard from my neighboring unit renters that there was a series of break-ins that happened and due to the lack of security here, they managed to raid DOZENS of units without ever being caught or even seen. The units are more or less cheap, and that's about the only good thing I can say about this place. I store nothing of significant value here due to the lack of security.

How do I set up auto pay?
You may set up autopay any time you make a payment by phone, website, or kiosk.
Can I pay with cash?
No, we do not accept cash payments. We encourage customers that normally prefer cash to purchase prepaid debit cards, which are available at most grocery stores, pharmacies, and convenience stores.
Why do I need to have insurance coverage for my unit?
Many tenants ask why we require tenant insurance or a protection plan. In our decades of self-storage experience, we have witnessed too many instances of tenants losing their valuables without recourse. Events like fires, natural disasters, and burglary, while rare, can leave a tenant with nothing when there is no insurance or protection plan in place.
Where do I send my proof of homeowners or renters insurance?
You may send a copy of your insurance declaration page to customer@spareboxstorage.com, or mail a copy to: SpareBox Storage, P.O. Box 1020, Denver, CO 80201.
What does contactless mean?
SpareBox is a contactless operation, meaning there is no on-site property manager. This is to increase the safety of our customers and our team members. We highly encourage you to utilize our website or our on-site kiosk for rentals, payments, and to manage your SpareBox account.
If you need assistance with a lock cut or a maintenance request, please call (833) 777-7273 and we will gladly make an appointment with a property manager.
What is the vacate policy?
SpareBox makes moving out simple! No written requirements or 30-day notice demands—just make sure your unit is empty, clean, and ready for the next customer. To inform us of your move-out, simply move-out online, call and let us know, or email us as customer@spareboxstorage.com.
How do I move out?
Once you are ready to move out, you can process the move-out through your online account, kiosk, or by phone. All SpareBox leases are month-to-month.
Note: If you move out at the beginning or middle of your billing cycle, you will not be refunded prorated rent. For that reason, we encourage move-outs to take place at the end of your billing cycle.
After scheduling your move out, be sure you remove all of your belongings and make sure your unit is clean and ready for the next customer.
It may take a few days for our property manager to verify your move-out, so disregard any automated notices you may receive shortly after you vacate.
What do I need to store my vehicle?
If you are storing a vehicle, motorcycle, boat, RV or trailer, you will need to provide us with proof of insurance and proof of ownership.
To send proof of insurance and ownership, please send a copy of your insurance declaration page, driver’s license, and registration to customer@spareboxstorage.com.
Is my rate guaranteed for the lifetime of my rental with SpareBox?
Your rate is not guaranteed for the lifetime of your rental. Periodically, we find it necessary to make adjustments to rates based on several factors including property improvements and to keep up with the rising cost of doing business. We send notifications 30 days before any rates change. You would have received this notice in the mail or by email.
What does climate-controlled mean?
Climate-controlled units are great for curbing extreme temperatures in the hot summer months and the cold winter months. These units have a typical range between 55º and 85º F. While not air conditioned the way your living room might be, these units will ensure your stored belongings won't be exposed to freezing or extreme heat.
Can I drop off my mobile storage unit at the facility? (PODs, Pack-Rat, U-Haul)
We do not offer or allow services like mobile storage, and we do not allow mobile storage to be dropped off on the premises of our facilities.
