We take pride in our safety features and 24/7 surveillance, but we understand that unforeseen circumstances can still arise. Plan for the unexpected with tenant protection that covers your stored items where traditional insurance may not.

While your store may require some form of stored goods protection, participation in the protection plan is not required to rent storage space. The plan may duplicate coverage that may be provided by a homeowners’ or renters’ insurance policy. The protection plan is a month-to-month program. You may cancel your participation in the protection plan at any time.
