Very happy to see that our pouch box truck with attractive pouch logo has drawn one prospective tenant’s attention while driving by and made us reserve one 10×18.5 with one truck move schedule from Corona on 7/26/14 at 9:30am.

Thanks to our Corp to allowing the box truck to park outside during business hours and give us opportunity to rent Vi track & trailer space ( 10×32 ) to future prospective tenants. 

We had a tenant that came in to thank us for the installing ADA Doors.  She mentioned that she was very pleased to know that the doors have been replaced because she has been on disability and with this new doors, it would be very convenient for her to access her unit.  She has been a tenant for over 25 years and had multiple units rented.  All these years she saw our facility being maintained and updated to high standards and don’t mind to be here for more years to come. 

Today’s happenings is about a past tenant who rented again from us. We did a truck-move for her. In our truck we supply blankets, furniture carts and a dolly. Inside the truck the tenant had a glass table top. She was concerned it might break due to the rolling furniture carts. To put her at ease we simply put the carts inside the truck cab. She was very grateful of our service.

On occasion here at Pouch Self Storage – Anaheim, we visit our competitor’s facilities. We ask, “How is business?” The idea is to build a neighborly rapport. Sometimes our competitors visit us, as one did today. He asked how we were doing and positively commented on our facility. I talked about our great security and our customer service philosophies. He was impressed.

To be acknowledged by a competitor for our high standards is a great feeling.

Last week we had a tenant who was here to inform us that her husband passed away.  They are both retired police officers and rented with us mainly because of our security features.  She asked me if she can pick some of our flowers so she can out this on her husband’s grave.  I answered by all means, pick the ones you liked.  After picking the flowers she came in and showed me what flowers she picked.  She then added, I just want to bring this to him and talk to him that it came from his storage place.  All I can say was, it’s nice to know that we are always part of little things in your lives.  She answered, not just little things, everything he treasured is in this storage.

Right about noon time, a fire truck showed up without warning and parked in front of our office.  Then I saw the Fountain Valley Fire Department crew coming in straight to the office with folders and check lists.  They then said they’re doing their inspection.  I answered if they needed help to let me know.  They checked the office, tested our gate and then said they’ll walk around the facility.  In about 15 minutes they’re back.  One of them said, “this is the fastest inspection they did on record so far”.  He even showed me the checklist of the other facilities they inspected.  Our facility passed all code requirements and no violation. 

Are you tired of being crowded by the overcrowding in your home or office? If you have too much stuff and not enough space, it’s time to let POUCH Self Storage help you decide on the best sized storage unit. Self Storage is convenient and lets you keep the things you need or want without tripping over them or getting rid of them. Free up space in your closets, basement, office or attic so your home can finally be an organized, clutter-free zone. Not all storage facilities are the same, however, so it’s important to know what to look for when you’re choosing one.

Check the Hours of Accessibility
It’s great to be at an outside facility—but when you need to retrieve something from your storage unit, you need to be able to get inside. Before you select a self storage facility, ask what hours you’ll be able to access your unit. It’s best to choose a storage facility that’s open every day of the week, as you never know when you might need to access your unit.

Ask about Security
Storing your belongings safely means more than just putting a lock on your storage unit. Ask for a tour of the storage facility before you make a commitment, be sure to inquire about the security.  Look for cameras, individual door alarms, 24-hour monitoring, an on-site manager,  video surveillance , and find out who is able to access the storage area. If you feel hesitant about the level of security don’t hesitate, continue your search.

Consider the Location
The location of your storage facility is also important to consider, especially if you think you’ll be accessing it on a fairly regular basis. You can choose a storage facility that’s relatively close to your home or work so you don’t have to drive too far to get there. When you rent your self-storage unit, find out if you can choose where your unit itself will be located within the facility.
