San Marcos Mini Storage

Awesome place for storage depending on your size preference, but for me it’s perfect. Owner or manager is an awesome guy very nice and the ladies who work there are very humble and generous. I love the fact they have elevators to help haul the heavier items up to the second floor since that’s where I am it made I much easier. Very convenient. Now as far as hours I wish they were more convenient as due to people don’t always work a 9 – 5 so my times of entry are always close to closing which is far too early I believe. Now a days people are averaging out at 10pm being a normal closing time or maybe even 11pm. Idk this would also be a better idea to implement to your storage. Overall atmosphere love the security and added bonus that once it’s locked nobody can come in so that’s a plus. It has it’s perks. Nonetheless I will continue to do business with this company and hope they will continue to keep up the good work as I’ve been here 1 month going on 2 months. I hope they might add a free month or possibly a discounted rate for being a great valuable member for no late payments or so that’d be great. Anyways an awesome place!

The people who work here are great; they’re the reason I’ve added a star. Otherwise, the rat shit I found on my stored belongings cost this place a great review.
You can have great staff, but if my photo albums come out of storage with the Hantavirus, I can’t recommend you to anyone.

Great place, great workers!!!
Allowed us to save a unit a month in advance with student discount. Upstairs units air conditioned.
Security cameras, explained everything very well about the storage & walked us around the place.
Excellent highly will rent again next year!

Clean, easy to find and get around, friendly office staff, a variety of units, half off first two months and a senior discount. We called first, didn’t like the 2^nd floor unit, and were quickly shown a ground floor nit that perfectly met our needs. All around a great experience. Highly recommended.

What an amazing experience! Karina was so helpful with me over the phone finding a great unit for me and even gave me ½ off my first month.
When I got to the facility I met with Karina and she showed me the unit before I leased it out.
The place is super clean! Loved that and she was one of the nicest people I’ve ever done business with!
I will definitely be back for any of my storage needs :)

Karina helped us out with getting a storage unit here. It was late Sunday afternoon and we ran in here from Downtown LA before they closed. She went through everything and gave us what we needed, do then we were off… to unload our stuff (were you thinking I was going type «to see the wizard?»).

Needed a storage unit same day. Called all around San Marcos. This place offered a great price with a 50% special off the first two months. Great! The gentlemen than helped me was Gary. He was so helpful and nice. When we moved everything into our storage unit, they offered is moving carts and dollies to make it easier. The facility is very clean and security seams great. Could not be happier!

We appreciate the many good qualities this facility offers; cleanliness, professional staff, good location, seems secure. Everything went well & good with them during our years as a customer, with 2 exceptions.
1) Major Issue: They raised our rent A LOT every year. By a lot I mean a minimum of 20% every year. As far as research showed us, there is no California law against this. Maybe all storage facilities operate like this, scamming trusting customers with sexy «move in specials» that TRAP YOU. We were excellent customers; clean, respectful, always paid in full on time. I find this rate of rent increase insulting & unacceptable. We plan to move to another facility that states in writing their rent increase limits. No thank you, manipulative business.
2) Minor Issue: They REQUIRE renters to pay a monthly fee for insurance IN ADDITION to providing your own proof that you have SEPARATE insurance. It was $ 10 per month tacked on to our rental rate. I resent this. As well I feel manipulated. Perhaps it is some kind of genuine requirement or law — if so we were provided no proof of that when we asked about it. The manager at that time would not budge when we repeatedly asked for this extra «insurance fee» to be waived. I FEEL manipulated — don’t know if we actually were or not.

I had a great experience with this business. I needed a storage unit when I was remodeling my garage. They offer a moving truck for free that you can load up to help you move everything down there. Great deal and the lady in the office was one of the nicest people I’ve ever met.
