Today one of our customers truck died in the front parking area. What seemed to be a easy fix by using AAA to come and take the van to the shop. After the first tow truck had its cable broke sending the truck back down to same spot. Another hour went by until the second tow truck showed up and finally getting it on flatbed and off to the shop. All ended well on a Sunday Afternoon. The team at Fountain Valley hope all the Mothers had a great MOTHERS DAY !!  

One of our tenants just recently referred a new customer to us here at Pouch Self Storage – Anaheim. Our new customer needed a space for a few months till she gets her new house. Our tenant assured her that she doesn’t need to go anywhere else but here. She came by and looked a couple of our clean and secure units. The decision was very easy for her. So she signed a month to month contract and used our Free Move-In Truck Service the next day. Our tenant was happy too because she gets a nice referral check applied to her account for bringing us a new customer. The new tenant came by after she moved in and brought by some goodies to satisfy our sweet tooth. She wanted to show us her appreciation for making it as easy as it could be. 

Now this is what we like to see – clear blue skies.  Last week this was all smoke and ash – The Etiwanda Fire was a little too close for comfort!!

One afternoon a lady tenant came rushing in to the office screaming. We asked her what her problem was.  She said spiders and lots and lots of spiders.  We found out that she’s scared of spiders and we went to check out her unit.  We saw about three small spiders the most. Either way, we told her that we’ll take care of it as soon as possible and assured her we have the Orkin man. We took a picture of the Orkin Man treating her unit.  This is only way to reassure her that the problem has been taken cared of.

A nice lady came by and said she wants a big unit for her parents.  I showed her around and finally she reserved what she thought was enough size for her parents belongings.  The next day her parents came by to check on the unit. I showed her parents the unit and her dad disagreed on the size.  I thought it was big enough by what her daughter told me they had.  Her dad said, this is too small for 51 years of being married to the same person. His wife added, yes it is.  I want to have two additional units. After 51 years being married to this guy and having my own separate room, I also want my own separate storage unit. I answered no problem and ended up renting three units. One for the husband, one for the wife and one for the items that they want to get rid of and also scheduled two truck moves.

Just another day in Long Beach…. A tenant decided at 5:40pm that they wanted to move out today.  Art was helping out and he made sure the customer cleaned out the unit and at the last minute on the trunk of their car had them signing the termination agreement!  We’re not sure if the boxes that were just sitting on the roof of the car ever made to their house but we were glad to help out and make their departure “as easy as it should be”.

A tenant brought in some left over homemade Beer Bread, but she said she didn’t have any beer because she doesn’t drink so she used root beer instead.  A staff member tried it and like it but thought it was a cookie not bread. Thanks to all of our tenant for those home made goodies!

Do you find that you have a lot of stuff in your house or office that you need to keep, but don’t require access to on a daily basis? If so, it may be time to consider renting a self-storage unit. Doing so, you’ll clear up extra room in your house without having to sacrifice your belongings. When you’re looking for a storage unit, you’ll need to determine how much space you need. Make a list of the items you’re going to store and start to think about how you can organize them for efficient use of space. Typically, one room’s worth of furniture, accessories, and clothing can be stored in a unit that measures 4’x6’x8’. If you are storing an entire apartment, house, or office worth of belongings, you’ll need a larger space.

On Friday March 28, around 9pm, an earthquake measuring 5.3 hit Southern California. The local news televised some residents reporting minor damage to their property. The next day, a few tenants came in to see what might be damaged in their units. Most said everything is fine, others had things fall down. One of the tenants asked if he was insured and we assured him that he was insured. At the time of signing his contract, he wisely opted for the Self Storage Insurance we offered. He smiled with some relief and asked, “ Can I borrow your broom and dust pan?”
