The pricing model here is honestly a complete joke. I started renting my unit at $99/month. Within a short time it increased to $169, and now it’s $264/month. That’s nearly triple the original price. Everyone understands that a promotional rate may eventually increase. One adjustment would be understandable. But multiple increases within a relatively short time frame starts to feel like a tactic rather than normal market pricing. People are busy. Once you’ve already moved all your belongings into storage, the company knows that moving everything again is a huge inconvenience, and the repeated increases seem to rely on that fact. When I called to discuss the latest increase before canceling, there was no attempt to work with me or retain the customer, just the same explanation that it reflects “market rates.” Customers should simply be aware of how quickly the price can escalate after move-in. There are locally owned storage facilities in the area with much more stable pricing, and I would strongly recommend looking into those first. Boardman Oh

Important information for anyone comparing storage facilities: My unit rate changed from $99 → $169 → $264 over time. That’s a significant escalation from the initial advertised price. While introductory pricing is common in this industry, multiple increases in a short timeframe can leave customers paying far more than expected once they’ve already moved their belongings in. It’s worth asking detailed questions about future rate adjustments before committing. Boardman Oh

Classic bait-and-switch pricing. I rented my unit for $99/month. Then it jumped to $169, and now it’s $264. That’s nearly triple the original price after you’ve already moved all your belongings in. One rate adjustment after a promotional price is understandable. Multiple increases within months is not. When I called to cancel, there was no attempt to work with the rate — just the standard “market pricing” explanation. At that point it’s pretty obvious the business model relies on the inconvenience of moving everything again. Do yourself a favor and look for locally owned storage facilities with stable pricing before choosing a corporate chain like this. Boardman Oh
