Deep Ellum Self Storage

This place is GREAT! I needed a place to stash the contents of my apartment for a few days before getting the keys to my new place. The owner was super sweet and let me rent for a few days at a prorated daily rate. It’s gated, and super safe inside. The storage units are clean, and I didn’t see any rats in mine or running around anywhere in there. All the units are on the ground level, so you just pull right up to it and unload. 24 hour access by code. If you need a storage unit, this place is where to go. Don’t bother messing with Public Storage or the like. Support a local business!

Self storage is always a royal pain: locations typically aren’t convenient, it’s often impossible to park a large truck on the premises, and then, you’re always wondering whether your items are safe from theft and protected as much as possible from the elements. Further, most places stack their contracts against you, making it a hassle to terminate your agreement once the need for storage ends. In short, it’s almost impossible to go through a storage term without some degree of inconvenience.
Deep Ellum Storage, however, sets a new mark in what a storage center should be. It has a convenient downtown location, its design allows you to bring even a large truck directly up to your unit (no need to push carts down hallways or into elevators), and the place is across the street from the police department. But beyond location and design, Deep Ellum Storage’s biggest asset is its owner, Ed, who couldn’t have been nicer to my wife and me. His prices are fair and flexible, he runs a tight ship, and his business is b.s. free. After a year of storing the contents of my home in one of the units, I went to Ed to close out my contract, expecting that I would have to go get some document notarized and signed in blood in order to be able to exit the agreement in 30 – 60 days. Ed, however, told me that he had taken care of everything, and that he hoped to see us again soon. Who else in his business does that? I couldn’t have asked for a better storage experience, and highly recommend Deep Ellum Storage.
