We called several facilities and asked to look at some of the empty Phoenix storage units that they had so that we could get a better idea of what we would have if we rented one. We wanted to be sure it that we found a convenient place that would keep our things safe. We were very pleased with the units that we saw and actually had a bit of difficulty deciding which location we liked the best. They all had great security systems in place and a manager that actually lived on the property in order to be able to respond to emergencies quicker.

It was actually a minor thing that tipped our decision about which of the Phoenix self storage units we would rent. One of the managers noticed that our youngest child was rather fussy and offered him a drink of cold water. When that did not calm him down, the manager asked if it would be alright to give him a piece of candy that they kept in the office. We agreed, and our son enjoyed the candy while we completed our tour of the facility. That made a big impression on us and we signed the contract before we left and moved our gear into our storage unit later that day.
