Very pleased with South West Self Storage. Ive had units there for several years (yes, I have too much stuff--long story) and recently needed to add a small unit because of an upcoming move. The office staff is always very helpful and professional and I have never had a problem. I recommend this facility highly.
Highly recommend this storage. It was clean and well air conditioned. All my stored items are in perfect condition and well protected. Great communication and easy payment method set up. Thank you for the great overall experience.
The place is great with the manager being really helpful, friendly, and straightforward. They are really good about communicating and getting back to you if you need anything. The units are clean, easy for customer access, and very secure. The only thing I would say to future outdoor unit customers is to buy more Damprid than they suggest (at least during summer) if you’re storing stuff that you’re worried about mold growth. We put around 6 cups in of it for a monthlong stay and when we got back they were all almost or completely full, but all of our stuff was mold free! Even our mattresses ! Great experience
Very professional & very quick service! They make & set up everything so it is no hassle & super convenient. Highly recommend!
Jay was great! He was welcoming and informative of the unit. I would highly recommend anyone who needed a storage unit! Great prices too! Keep up the good work guys.
Very easy storage experience! Will definitely come back if I need storage again in the future.
A very nice place and clean! Their staff, specifically Jay, was incredibly helpful and friendly for the whole process. Would definitely recommend to a friend!
This place rocks. The staff and site manager are very nice and helpful. They showed me many units to put my package in. Couldnt have asked for better service.
Had a little mix up on my reservation, but when we arrived, Jay made it right. Very pleasant to work with and the storage unit is clean and nice. Security is very good. Would definitely recommend.
Miss Kim and Mr Jay have been more than amazing to help with all my storage needs, questions, and concerns! Its very clean orderly, and a friendly environment.
Renting this storage was a very pleasant experience. Staff was courteous and helpful, the facility conveniently located, and the unit easily accessible, clean and safe. Would highly recommend.
The staff member I interacted with was great. He was easy to talk to and knowledgeable. The problem is that there is no support after hours. I encounter a problem after office hours and I found no ne to help me.
Their team was very friendly and responded quickly to my questions. I would use them again in the future.
Quick, pleasant service. Easy lease process. Took the time to make sure the access code worked and walked me to the unit to make sure all was in order.
Jay was very helpful and made me feel very welcome!
I needed somewhere last minute when school shut down to put my stuff since I live out of state. I had used South West before at one of their other locations so I knew they had great service. The one on 42nd had an opening and it was super easy to set up. I could do it over the phone and they were so nice! I wasnt able to go back down to pick up my stuff so my mom had to make the trip. She needed help moving something and they helped her and she said the guy was very nice about it. Would recommend to a friend!!!
I needed a storage for 2 weeks so I decided to store my items here since I did get a great deal. I reserved the unit online but when I went in person to sign my lease, I was told that my unit was given to someone else because they paid their reservation fee first - that was not an option for me. Soon enough however I was able to get my unit. I decided to move in my items a week later and when I came back, my gate code wasn’t working. I went into the office, and got immediate help however I was told that they “moved me out” since there was no lock on my gate even though I told them that I was going to bring my own lock when I moved my items in the following week when I signed my lease. Someone couldn’t tell me that that wasn’t allowed, so I wouldn’t have to go through that hassle?Anyways, it was now time for me to take my items out of the unit, and I open up the storage after not visiting for 2 weeks. I came to find bugs including spiders, lizards, insects and frogs everywhere in the unit, covering all of my belonging. The unit was filled with dirt and my items seemed to be wet and covered in dirt. While moving out of the unit, I seemed to have got bitten by something. It’s been a week and the bumps/reaction hasn’t gone away.Though the pricing was great, I do think that the service and customer service could’ve been more efficient. Jay and Joel were very kind after all and willing to help. The unit definitely needs to be worked on to prevent any other unhappy customers.
So friendly, clean and professional.
Oitstamding sevice . staff was very helpful in so many ways . cant say enough good about them .
Clean, dry, no pest and easy to store and pick up.
At the Butler Plaza transfer station we hang around the Southwest storage the area is always well kept. I often think about storing a few things there😊
Reasonable rates, secure facility, and hassle free storage!
Super friendly staff and very helpful. I was even upgraded to a bigger unit because my reservation wasn’t coming up.
Great place wonderful staff. Will go back of ever i need storage again .
I very please with the service that I received from South West Self Storage, Inc. Customer services is outstanding and the unit was in very good condition. Price is very good too.
Staff is very accommodating and friendly. Helpful all the way around, would highly recommend this location for your storage needs
The staff are very friendly. They have lots of storage lockers and we got the first month for free. We picked a locker that was too small at first and they let us move over to a larger one with no problem or extra fee.
Jay at southwest storage saved the day today! We lost our key and he helped us when he didn’t have to! Was awesome!
Friendly clean and secure
My husband Steve and I commend SW Storage for their friendly, helpful service! Recently, Joel assisted us with moving stuff from one unit to another. He set us up with a U-Haul at a very reasonable price to enable a smooth transfer. In the past we also used SW Storage for our campus band equipment. This is a convenient and secure location!
South West Self Storage was exactly what we needed for storing the overabundance of items that were collecting in our garage. The location is good, although the traffics getting worse over there. The rental process was smooth and seamless, and the price was very reasonable.One thing I would have liked to have seen is an on-site dumpster for use by customers. I know that increases costs, but the small increase to keep and empty a dumpster could be incorporated into rental unit pricing. It wouldnt cost customers that much more money, and it would be well worth it.
The service is superb! Tiffany P. was very friendly and competent, explained the contract, rules in detail. The renting process went smooth and was a lot of fun chatting with Tiffany.The storage itself is clean and everything (access to the property, gate opening, unit opening, etc) works fine as it should.My unit is clean, dry and easy accessible by my vehicle.I highly recommend this place!
The gentlemen in the front office of this branch on SW 42nd next to Wal*Mart are great! Very professional, intelligent, and entertaining -- always enjoy chatting with them whenever I come in. They have helped me out whenever I had a question or concern, and I am proud to continuing giving them my patronage.
Jay was super nice and very easy to work with. It was a pleasure to do business with them, they were always available to answer any questions. They were the best price around for the size storage we needed.
The manager is very helpful and understanding person. He is also a fun person to talk to. The service rate are fair and actually cheaper than many other places in the vicinity.
I’ve had my stuff in storage for 8 years here. I like the ground level. My stuff stayed nice and dry in outside storage. As the price continued to increase over each year, I had to move to a smaller unit to afford storage. Joel and the staff were always very nice to me. If I ever need storage again, I will return.
Joel and the others were very helpful! As well as having a unit available at the last minute, they also gave me some good pointers as to where to stay, places to eat, and things to do. Thanks so much!!
Reservation made it easy to go in and sign up for a unit. Got just the size I wanted, was easy and with half price for the first 3 months a great deal too. So far happy just as I expected to be.
Used South West Self Storage while I was between moves and out of the state for 3 months! It was so convenient to reserve the unit, and cancel my lease when my new place was ready. Felt my stuff was secure and protected while I was away! Would use this facility again and recommend it to a friend!
I chose this storage facility because the ratings were really good. They definitely live up to the expectation. The staff listens to your needs and helps you find what you need in a quick and smooth manner. Youre even allowed to look at your exact storage before you commit! Love that! I would recommend this storage facility to everyone!
This was the best storage place I ever went to. I got a free month and did not have to pay for a month in advance. The prices were excellent for the space and my things stayed in great shape. I love the email notices and the convenient ways to pay the bill. Customer service was excellent. I will always use that place for my needs and recommend it to anyone looking for storage or a U-Haul truck. I had no waiting time to get my truck and it was very comfortable and easy to drive. Very good rates. That is a great location to get it from.
The guys at this facility were extremely helpful. Excellent customer service. Very quick and they made everything go smoothly. I could not have asked for better service. Amazing!!!
Super quick and easy. Good price and Jay at the office was extremely friendly and helpful. Great personality and made the whole experience go smoothly
We decided to use South West Self Storage for extra space when downsizing and so glad that we did! Jay was extremely friendly, accommodating, and made our first experience very easy! Would highly recommend them for anyone looking for storage space here in Gainesville.
I just opened my third storage unit with South West Self Storage and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Joel is extremely helpful and I appreciate their amazing customer service. Great location and units are clean and easy to access. Thank you!!
Great storage facility. I am currently using it to store my four wheeler till I go back to Tallahassee. I feel really secure about leaving it here. The counter guy was really nice, courteous, and professional. The size of the unit fit the four wheeler perfectly.
Nice staff, really worked with me on my storage time, they are very knowledgeable about what can fit in their storages
Put my order in the night before and my pickup was ready that afternoon.
Jay is great. Friendly, honest and knowledgeable. Made the experience very easy.
Jay was very helpful, he set me up with the size unit I wanted, showed me where to find my unit and provided me with all the information I needed. Not only that, but the whole process took about 15 minutes, which was great because I needed to have my entire apartment unpacked that day :)
Great customer service, and easy access
Very nice and clean units. The team of guys that run the place are very kind and helpful. My fiance needed help getting into our unit at one time and the staff immediately dropped what they were doing to help her out. I was very impressed with the entire experience and would recommend them to anyone and everyone looking for a QUALITY storage experience.
Dropped of a rented Uhaul truck here. Jay helped us out and made sure we didnt get overcharged for anything. Good quick service.
Joel is the kind of employee every owner longs for...and who goes the extra miles to retain customers. I arrived hesitant of proposing a solution to my money problems, but Joel exactly knew what I wanted to do and finished my thoughts!! He arranged for a different due date!!!Yeah Joel!!!
Super helpful, amazing customer service, and very fast service. Mr. Toney, the store manager, got me in and out as I needed the extra storage quick. I called several places and theirs was the cheapest and location was perfect. Ill definitely do business with them again and recommend to anyone liking and looking for reliable service.
Secure and safe.
Great customer service. I would use and recommend them again.
Nice place to storage your items.
Had our unit 10 months; never had an issue! Clean, bright, secure location. Staff absolutely fantastic! If we need storage again, there would be no hesitation at all to use South West Self Storage—they’ll definitely be our “go to.” Joel, you’ve been awesome, from the UHaul rentals, to answering every question. Thank you!!
Excellent service! They deserve 6 Stars. They saved me money and were very helpful.
Very kind staff. We accidentally hit the fence of the storage facility once, but did not get charged.
The units are very well organized, and the security is top notch. Each person gets their own individual code to gain access to the grounds. The manager will make sure the unit you want is clean, and the entire staff is very punctual in all aspects. Everything, including moving in and moving out was simple and hassle free, the staff is very friendly.
The staff are, nice, helpful and take time to insure you are comfortable and understand how to use gate entrance codes,hours of service, and contract. They are always there to help. I would highly recommend this company. Im glad I found them. JD.
Easy to reserve. Clean & secure.
Storage units were clean and staff was professional. I was particularly happy with service when my unit door broke. Staff was helpful and very courteous. Rates are reasonable for space. Access is easy. I highly recommend Southwest Storage.
The staff, particularly Joel and Ron, are friendly, attentive, and precise. The process is clear cut and a breeze! They are so considerate, how they speak, how they offer you a water bottle in this Florida heat! They are running an effective business and Im glad I stored my belongings here in a clean secure 5x10 unit.
I was born and raised in this city and havent ever needed a storage unit until this year. I knew I only needed the unit for less than a month and thought I would regret getting one, but South West Self Storage proved me wrong!I rented a 10x10 at an incredible rate and stored my belongings for a little over 2 weeks. When it was time to move into my new home, I rented a Uhaul through them (which was painless, cheap and efficient) and moved everything that evening.After getting settled into my new home I received an email that my storage unit rent was past due. I had completely forgot to close the unit since Im an extremely busy single dad who works 40+ a week while raising a 3yr old.The following weekend I went up to the office to pay my rent and late fee as well as close the unit and I was more than prepared to pay the fees since I was the one who forgot. Instead, the manager told me he wouldnt take my money since I had nothing in the unit. So, we walked over to the unit so I could remove my lock and check that it was empty and he closed my account and gave me a move-out receipt!Fantastic customer service! I will recommend this storage facility to anyone and everyone as long as Im in Gainesville! The staff are extremely helpful, friendly and informative.If youre unsure if this facility is a good choice, look no further! Thank you again for the positive experience from start to finish!Sincerely,Carter
Friendly staff, quick lease, unit was very clean.
My experience with South West Self Storage was outstanding. All questions were answered promptly and professionally. The unit was clean and climate controlled as I requested. I would recommend SW Self Storage to others. You should have a great experience.
Called a month and a half ago to rent a unit for July and was told I had to wait 7 days before my “move-in” date to reserve a unit. So I wait 7 days before I need a unit, only for them to tell me their sold out? How on earth are we supposed to reserve a unit only ONE WEEK before we need it? Makes no sense. Additionally they jack up the prices every week you wait to rent. Unbelievable.
Place is good but they were not clear with the charges and fees like the insurance fee and the lock fee. Once you are there with all your stuff you just have to accept whatever they say. I really dont know what to think :(
Great place for easy in & out self storage. The place was really nice and well up-kept; along with being gated. The prices are fairly reasonable. The best part about this storage location was that it was located right off the I-95 exit, perfect location.
Very friendly, easy access without backing up a trailer or truck. good hours that the office is open
Great friendly service...the units are clean and very accessible. The staff was very helpful and made it a quick easy experience to put our things in storage. Would recommend South West to anyone needing storage in the area to stop in. Youll be glad you did.
Fantastic customer service! Terri was extremely professional and personable. Best rates in Gainesville. The unit is exactly what I was looking for.
Overall simple process, staff got me in with ideas, and out with a storage unit for my exact needs. Thanks.
I had a storage unit here for one year and had zero troubles. The staff were quick to help me set up my account, knew the answer to any questions I had, and closed out my account in under a minute when I was ready to leave.Prompt, knowledgeable, helpful, and professional.
South West is the best! I had a last minute move. I searched high and low for a 10 ft U Haul truck and was relocated to Main Street. Id already reserved my storage unit at South West because it was closer to my old apartment. I dreaded having to travel back and forth across town in not so ideal afternoon traffic....I made my way to South West first and low and behold they had a truck available. The managers are the best and made the process painless both mentally and financially! They even put a smile on my face after a long days work!! Id recommend them 1,000 times and I look forward to doing business with them again when I move in the fall.
Very clean and secure! Superior customer service. The managers are amazing so nice, friendly and accommodating. If I ever need a storage unit again I will be back!
I tried to give 0 star but did not work. After 1.5 h I could not call them to get truck; they rented it to someone else. It is fine, but they needed to listen me what I am saying on the phone. I was okey to get track and return early and it would work for both. Anyway it is not a good one, pick other location...
Kimberley was awesome!!
Units were clean and easy to access when needed. Front office staff was friendly and helpful. Would use again if I hadnt moved out of state.
The staff is always nice and accommodating whenever I go into the office for assistance. The storage itself was clean and easy to get to. I had the pleasure of having Joel and Toney to assist me with closing out my lease today. I would definitely use again the next time I move.
She wasnt going to do an inspection until I insisted. Thank goodness because the lock on the back of the truck was busted. Had to go to another place.
The manager made the process easy from start to finish. Great location and my daughters belongings were safely stored for over 5 months. Will be back in the spring.
Never had any problems and they let me cancel my unit a couple days after my bill was due and there was no fee and I didn’t have to pay for that month so overall pretty good place
Great deals and nice customer service.
It was a great experience. I was able to use the Uhaul available there and the unit are huge and was able to store all my furniture and stuff. Definitely will recommend it to others and way affordable compare to others. 2 thumbs up.
We rented a unit for 6 months during a renovation of our condo. Very pleased with location, facility and management team!
The staff was so helpful. Had never been there, they offered to help me with the gate. Felt very safe once inside the gates.
I used this place for 5 1/2 months. Within those months, I have experienced hardship was struggling to pay my storage rent. The staff is really kind and really work with you. I just moved out..3/26/2018 and my things were secured and safe. Never had an issue with security there. Just minor things like normal outside bugs, but I had an outside unit, so there you have it. LOL. I would definitely recommend this place and I would use them again. Thanks for everything.
It was a great experience. The staff was always so helpful! If I need a storage facility again in the future, I would definitely go back.
Just be careful of the insurance charge. Your apartment/house rental insurance covers the storage and you can opt out of it.
Terrible Costumer Service. Absolutely terrible. When I showed up to get a storage facility no one was present in the office DURING THEIR OPEN HOURS. Do not put your business here. Not reputable at all. When the workers are gone, the gate doesnt open. Even if you already have a storage unit, you couldnt access it, because no one is present in the office.
Great place to store your stuff. Clean and secure. Friendly and helpful staff
The research and account setup was very quick. In addition the staff was professional and very helpful during the entire process to rent a storage unit.
In and out in no time flat! No traffic, conveniently located, prices for units are reasonable for the area. Been a customer for years.
Customer Service was excellent. Clean, secure and good location. I had absolutely no problems. I would recommend to friends and family.
Much easier than dealing with big uhaul store. Pleasant staff!
