Requesting recommendations for storage facilities for one year for my house in CS.

If possible, prefer something closer to the Earl Rudder side of town but that is not mandatory; obviously would like best value, flood-proof and clean.

Any recommendations from personal experience would be appreciated.

Not where you want it, we used Cube Store by the racetrack for two years. Great folks, very secure, reasonable pricing, etc.

I've been using SmartStop for about 6 months now. I've used other places in both CS and other cities and they are the best company I've ever had. Their property is well maintained and their rates aren't ridiculous.

Morningstar Storage...they have two locations. One on Booneville Rd and the other on Hwy 30. Not the cheapest in town, but they lock in in your rate for a full year, not raise the rent three months later. They also have 24hr access.

Morningstar is great. Used them a few times over the years.

Maybe I was good friends with the Sterlings and Stones, Mike Scott, etc. I still go see Mrs. several times a year.

Then I'm sure we know each other, RA...since I grew up with them and spent many an hour - when allowed - in Dorm 11. I'll most likely see Mike Scott this weekend....

FYI - just made a donation to the Foundation fund....

Stay away from the one across from the Deacon Wings & More, next to Burger King.

We had mice in ours and also water damage. They accepted no fault whatsoever.

Stay away from Storage Station on Manuel. Homeless people break in those things all the time and actually live in them if there is nothing to steal.

Gross.

Any other storage facilities in town have this problem?

Does anyone have recommendations for a very short-term (month to 6-weeks) storage facility?

Can confirm. Had some audio equipment stolen from there in 2007. I was a naive student and thought a lock would keep things safe over the summer.

They had the courtesy to leave everything else... And everything in its place. They just went through the boxes, took the good stuff out, shut the boxes, and even put the lock back on.

They were the nice kind of criminal I guess.

We used cubesmart while transitioning/selling a home and have nothing to say but good things. It's on Hwy 6 and access is easy!

Carney's broke into 7 motor homes at that CubeSmart last winter and stole radios and GPS systems. None were recovered, and the carneys are setting up shop in the lot next door again this fall. Goody.

How do you know it was a carnival worker? Was one arrested?
