Iテ「竄ャ邃「d give a five star review, but the day I moved in I had to use the loading dock stair entrance. This required me to carry everything up what was about a half flight of stairs and repeatedly enter a code to get inside. Otherwise the property is great.

The Storage Depot in what once was the Food Lion grocery store has proven to be a great use of an empty space and we welcome The Storage Depot to Mills River, NC. Several sizes available from which to choose. Easy online account set-up. We feel secure with the facility and our belongings during a relocation. A perfect facility for our needs!
