Feeling overwhelmed by clutter taking over your home?

We had an issue with the lock on one of our units recently, and it was taken care of immediately. 10/10 can’t say enough good things”

BlackWater7 Gaming Central

“I’ve rented a large unit from here for a year and a half the owner is very quick to respond when I had questions and the unit was well taken care of, air tight, pricing was also very good for the unit size with electricity in it. Overall very good experience with gilbert corner storage.”

P Mc

“I needed a storage unit and had zero experience renting one. I called expecting a bot, but instead found a person who was kind, attentive, and patient with my questions and had a lot of information and guidance. Steve is great as is the location and services.”

Joan Bailey

“Very clean,nice garage storage. Lot is secure and very well lit.”

Connie Babbitt

“It was a perfect experience. Steve was nothing but kind and helpful. Steve made it very easy. I really appreciated it if I could give it more than five stars I would.”

Adie D.

“Thank you Mr. Steve. I highly recommend Gilbert Storage. We moved from across country and found this storage facility. The price is very reasonable and the unit is so big that we were able to fit everything we have. The location is ideal. It’s off a main road so if you are driving the biggest moving truck it’s easy to get in and out. It’s also located behind a gas station, whenever we’re gettin stuff from our unit and one of my kids gets hungry or needs to go to the bathroom there’s a facility that we could use next door. There’s cameras installed, there’s a gate that requires your own personal code and the facility is very clean.”

Tim Dinkins

“We had a perfect and great experience with this storage facility. Great customer service the facility is always clean and well kept. We had the storage for 2 years with no issues and no problems. I definitely recommend using this facility for your storage needs and the owner is easy to get in contact with and always returns calls.”
