Vancouver self storage

We offer Month-to-Month Contract With No Commitment

We understand that today’s world is changing constantly and it’s difficult for businesses, students, and people in general to solidify a plan for the future. To accommodate people’s needs and the dynamic environment, we offer month-to-month contracts with no commitment to give our customers the flexibility they need.

No Security Deposit

A security deposit is money that is given to a landlord, lender, or owner of a property as proof of intent to move-in and care for the domicile. Security deposits can be either refundable or nonrefundable, depending on the terms of the transaction. A security deposit is intended as a measure of security for the recipient, and can also be used to pay for damages or lost property.

At U-Lock Self Storage, we don’t require security deposits when customers are renting storage units at our facilities. This significantly minimizes the amount of move-in cost when you rent at one of our storage facilities.

Fully Fenced with Gated Facility

The security and protection of our belongings are top priorities for us. To ensure that all the units are secure, all of our facilities are fully fenced and gated which tremendously prevent burglary or theft of any sort.

Individually Alarmed Units

In addition to a fully fenced with gated facility, we’ve installed individual alarms for all the units. The alarm triggers when a burglar attempts to forcefully and illicitly enter a storage unit and our security and local law enforcement will be notified of the attempted break-in and attend the respective facility to remedy the issue.

24-hour Video Monitoring with HD Video Surveillance System

We’ve also installed 24-hour video monitoring with HD video surveillance to monitor and address any suspicious activities 24 hours a day and document all activities nearby our facilities with our HD video surveillance system. The surveillance system further strengthens  the facilities’ security and prevents malicious activities from occurring.
