Edward was incredibly helpful for everything I needed. I had not been in my storage unit for over 6 years and had no idea what to do but he made everything clear and simple for me and was able to assist with all my questions.

Fabulous customer service

Fabulous customer service. We have never used a self storage before. Edward was great! He spent time running through how things worked and showed us entry and exit procedures etc. Great storage facility, lots of room for delivery Lorry’s and vans. Can’t recommend enough!

I have a unit in Reading.

I have a unit in Reading.
I called Shurgard because I couldn't open the shutter to my unit.
After speaking to him on the phone about the problem, Chris from the nearest manned office was along within minutes and managed to get the door open and discover the problem. He said he would speak to the maintenance team and get them to contact me to come and fix it. I am still waiting for that.
Chris was friendly, professional and very helpful.
Thank you,
Jill

Excellent service

I have been a customer with Shurgard for 15 months and have spoken to all customer service agents within the store, who are helpful, patient, informative, professional and genuinely try to give you the best price. Explain all dets inc insurance and other factors you need to know with regards storage.
However, I'd like to give a review on Karen who is absolutely brilliant.
She has helped with discounts and finding new units if needed due to the fact this is my daughter's unit who has moved abroad. Karen has made it easy with adding security questions to the account so I can access as not always easy when my daughter is away.
However, I needed to gain access to the unit in December and couldn't find the lock number or key. This was stressful as near to Christmas and I was travelling the following day.
Karen saved me hours of thinking I needed a locksmith or trying to locate spare keys and simply made arrangements. I was with her and she used the stores equipment and although extremely busy, put aside time, imme8with me attended the unit and within a few minutes I was in the unit!!
Provided me with a new lock and I took what was needed and on my way home. Thank you Karen, you saved me so much time and stress. Excellent service and I will remain with this company. 👍

First time using a storage locker …

I have started using storage in the Reading A33 branch. Online set up was so easy. I packed my boxes into the car and went straight over to their Reception. The 3 people in the office were so welcoming and made sure I was all set up and answered any questions I had.
I took them up on the offer to show me where my storage locker was and made sure I could enter and lock up.
Couldn’t have been easier and the staff couldn’t have been more helpful!

DO NOT USE

DO NOT USE
The absolute worst customer service. If you call you will never go direct to store, instead you go to a central office where they don't have your details, after which they claim they will call you back. They never do.
I went in to complain that they did not receive my cancel request because of the mess of their internal system. They did not take any responsibility. Instead they set my move out date to over 1 month following my second visit to their store rather than 15 days onwards as per their notice period. Conning at every turn!

Also good luck with their app which controls everything. If you do not have your phone you cannot access anything, and the app often didn't connect to their doors.
