I’ve stored at Metro Storage for years—even back when it was under different management—and I have to say, Boomer has completely transformed the experience! He is absolutely phenomenal—professional, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile to make sure everything runs smoothly. His customer service is second to none, and he truly cares about the people who store here. The facility has never been more organized, clean, and well-managed. If you’re looking for a place to store your belongings with peace of mind, look no further! Boomer is a rockstar, and Metro Storage is lucky to have him. Highly recommend!

I used this particular Metro Mini Storage location a few years back and had a great experience. With its cleanliness and safe location, equipped with access codes, security cameras, and the heaviest duty locks, along with the very pleasant and helpful Staff (Boomer) and other associates, I decided to come back for another storage round. The prices have been reasonable each time, with large units to accommodate whatever you may need to store. I didn’t even look at another storage business because I remembered the treatment I received here, and how secure and safe my belongings were. I’m back again! Lol! Thanks Boomer for all you do and thanks Metro Mini for keeping my things safe and secure within an exceptionally clean facility. Thankyou.
