How do I get my items to the unit?

With roll-up doors and free pushcarts and dollies, moving into your storage unit is easy no matter what type you’ve rented.

Can I bring my own lock?
If you go into the office to complete a rental, you may provide your own lock, or you can purchase a new, sealed lock at your local facility. All locks need to be shown to the facility general manager and approved prior to using it on your unit.
