If you have storage needs and are considering getting a storage unit, you may want to do some research on the storage unit facility before you decide to rent from there. One good way to go about conducting this research is to stop in and have a visit before you commit to a rental agreement. It is always a good idea to check out a storage unit facility before you commit to storing your precious belongings with them. We know that you will always be pleased with US Storage Centers’ Alhambra location, but if you are looking for a storage unit, you can learn a lot by doing an in-person visit and by asking a number of different questions. Why Plan A Visit? Planning a visit to a prospective storage unit facility is a great idea since it give you a chance to see where your things would be stored. A prospective visit gives you an opportunity to: Inspect the facility and see what storage unit options are available, e.g., storage unit sizes, temperature controlled options, etc.; See the condition of the storage units yourself in person; Inspect the quality of the storage unit doors, latches and space inside; See what kind of security measures are taken at the storage facility to protect the storage units in the facility; Possibly meet some of the staff who work at the facility, such as the property manager; and See how convenient it is for you to get to the storage facility location from your home or office. Just like most people test drive a car before they buy or rent it, you would want to see the storage units before you commit to renting one. A visit is a convenient way to see what options are available to you, and to determine whether the storage unit facility seems like the right fit for you and your storage needs. An Opportunity To Ask Questions Conducting a prospective visit to storage unit facility gives you a chance to talk to the employees of the facility, and a chance to ask them questions. The employees can answer questions that you may have concerning the security of the storage units, any maintenance questions you might have about the storage units (for instance, whether the units are regularly treated for pests, etc.), any questions about special rates or discounts that are available, and whether there are any perks or incentives for renting a storage unit with them. Staff can also most likely provide you with contact information and marketing materials about their particular storage unit facility site. This is also your chance to ask questions about what happens if you miss a rental payment, or if the payment is late. Ask questions about what the grace periods are, or if there is an option to prepay rent. A prospective visit is the appropriate time to develop an understanding of what the storage unit facility’s policies are regarding use of the storage unit and payment of rent.
