I have rented from these guys for 5+ years. Kathy is amazing. The rates are good. I have referred a few people and they are just as happy as I am with my experience with Kathy.

I now live in New Orleans after living in Minnesota for 45yrs so Minnesota is where my roots are & always will be. I keep a storage of important personal belongings at Metro Storage. The staff at Metro Storage, especially Kathy, have been great with communicating with me, I know my storage is safe, when Ive had issues paying my bill they work with me, & Kathy is so helpful.

By far the best storage locker and staff Ive came across. The place is very clean and the rates for the lockers arent bad either. Kathy is a very knowledgeable about her job and very courteous.

I moved into a townhome recently from a larger situation and simply needed a temperature controlled unit with easy access that I still felt safe using. Fortunately I’ve managed to find that with metro self storage in Blaine. Kathy the manager is an absolute sweetheart who has always made herself available if needed. I’ve never had any issues however I have found myself stopping at times to talk with Kathy as we both have an interest in cars. If you are looking for a safe and secure storage facility I highly recommend Metro!!

Our family was in need of storage after having a house fire in the middle of January. After looking over many options, none compared to Metro Self Storage in Blaine. Kathy was amazing as she helped us through a very difficult time taking an incredible amount of pressure off of us, and making sure our needs for storage were met. Metro almost became a second home for us as all of our items not damaged by the fire were able to be stored safely in a controlled temp environment that was also spotless and in a great location. The staff is wonderful here...we cant say that enough. Thank you so much Kathy, and Metro, for helping us through such a difficult time! We appreciate the care and time you took making us feel like valued customers...and friends.

My husband and I used this location in 2016 to store household items until we purchased our first home. The place was very clean & the staff was AMAZING! Years later (3/2021) we were in need of another storage unit for just 1 month & I immediately thought of Metro Self Storage! I went in to check on availability & was reminded how WONDERFUL this place is. I currently have a storage unit & the staff is STILL AMAZING. Best customer service ever I swear!! And the bathrooms are spotless! I highly recommend this company & location!!

Kai was excellent help with superior customer service skills when I was in a pinch for a storage unit. The facility is clean, has an indoor bathroom and water fountain. I feel I made the right choice with the security of the building. Overall I would recommend this facility.

Kathy & Ed are amazing!!! We rented approx. 7 various size storage units over the past 3 years at Metro Self Storage. We stored items when we were staging our home to sell, followed by several months after our move. Since we moved in the winter we decided to wait until spring to move our outdoor items out of storage. I also had multiple storage units to store inventory for my wedding event business. We have other family members that have rented as well. One still rents a unit there. Kathy operates this location very professionally. She was great to work with every time I decided to rent another unit or switch the size or location of the units I wanted to rent. The facility is always spotless, including the on-site restroom. The lighting in the facility is great. All our units were on the 1st floor, so in addition to being climate controlled, we had the luxury of driving inside on days when the weather was bad to load or unload. I always felt safe when I was in the facility & never worried about any of our items that were stored there. We moved about 45 minutes north, otherwise we would still use Metro. Highly recommend Metro (Specifically the Blaine location) for anybody looking for either short or long term storage!!!

Metro Storage is clean, well lit, and I always felt safe there. The staff are always nice, pleasant, and answers questions you may have. I have had two environmental control units. All of my items remained clean and odor free. One of my storage units I’ve had since 2016. I highly recommend Metro storage! I give Metro storage five stars ⭐️

Let me just say.. Kathy is THEE best. I am a big stickler for great customer service and she meets my standards. The inside of the building is always clean and the bright light helps to see where your going. I am on my 2nd unit at this location. Even the bathroom(s) inside the loading/un-loading area is clean. Take the stress out of storing your stuff and bring it here.

Great facility and Manager Kathy. This place is unbelievably clean and well maintained, we thought it was brand new, but it isnt. Kathy showed us several options and put our mind at ease after a previous bad experience in Minneapolis where several of our pieces of furniture was damaged due to their faulty HVAC. This is a very secure huilding with cameras, plus climate controlled. The BEST around!!

Easy access, like my unit, good customer service when I have worked with them on anything. For being a new building out there was some flooding or something that happened above my items, they did called me to tell me but I am grateful that it did not happen to my unit. They seem to have been prompt and taken care of it and I was happy they notified me so I could check. I have had good experience with working with the front desk

Review №38

The only reason why I’m giving this a five star is because of the manager Kathy. She is by far the best manager and sales rep for that company. I have rented from many other places and she is very professional caring and understanding and is a great problem solver. She is always there to help her figure out the best solution for your storage needs. The place is always clean under her watch. I have dealt with other people that has worked for her but cannot compare to the dedication that kathy puts in. Unfortunately I had to move storage because I move location and the Blaine location is too far for me. I had to look for a place that’s closer to where I moved and I am really not happy with the storage place that I’m at now. I wish Kathy was running the ship there it would be much better.If you were going to rent from metro storage in the Blaine area or wherever Kathy is managing you are in good hands. I would definitely recommend the facility.

Kathy was super helpful and informative, as well as very friendly. All of my contacts with metro self storage staff(I spoke to a different customer service reps on the phone) have been very helpful, and gotten me the information I needed.The spaces are clean, well lit, and appear well maintained. There are multiple entry doors and a drive through to load/unload out of the rain if needed, as well as carts for transporting to your assigned unit if needed.

Kathy was very kind and professional. She answered all my questions and showed me the different size units that I wanted to look at for storage. She very knowledgeable about the features and benefits of each one as well as the cost for each one.She did an excellent job of explaining the entire process before I decided to rent.

Kathy (the Blaine store manage) displays and genuinely embodies the absolute greatest customer service that I have ever experienced! Saying that she goes out of her way to accommodate and troubleshoot, while providing a plethora of available resources is an understatement. Shes incredibly dedicated to her company/work, always greets with a smile and I would love to have her as CEO of my company.Combine pleasant/diligent/competent/qualified/punctual/Personality ...You get Kathy 😁

This is a great place, clean and convenient with the carts they have to move your stuff from your car to the unit. I loved that it is temperature controlled too. I used it a couple years ago and the office people were great and easy to work with when we moved out. Planning to go back to them again to store some things for the winter. I would recommend them to anyone.

Kathy for years has provided excellent service for my storage needs. She is an attentive listener who finds perfect solutions for the vexing problems that come with a need for storage. The Metro Storage in Blaine is an awesome facility with great security features.

I am so happy with Metro Self Storage in Blaine. The employees have been accommodating, informative, helpful and very friendly. The units themselves have plenty of accommodating space for storage needs. My need to switch to a larger unit was met quickly and the transaction to switch was just as quick and easy. The building itself is very clean including the bathroom! I highly recommend this place for those of you who are looking for storage.

This is a fantastic storage facility! We moved our belongings from another storage company to here and there’s no comparison. I can’t think of anything that needs improvement.

As someone who has used storage units in the past, I cannot imagine having to carry the burden of being discriminated against for my sexual orientation, or personal preferences while being in the process of a move or other stressful situation that may require me to have a storage unit. My money should be welcomed just like anyone elses, but apparently the employees here dont feel that way, so I can only hope others will join me in taking business away from this company for allowing such discrimination to happen by their employees.

Review №79

Since Kathys name is already on some of these reviews, I dont feel bad about using her name when thanking the staff at this facility for the same 5 star treatment that apparently everyone else has had here. This is a clean facility and from first impression, appears to be well designed. And as stated before, hats off to customer service and even just the general atmosphere of the place. Has an industrial look but not an industrial feel. Good pricing too. Always something to consider.

Excellent facility and staff! Wasnt sure if I really needed climate controlled storage but was sure happy I did make that decision.

Search no more for climate controlled storage - Blaine Metro Storage has it all! Friendly, knowledgeable, organized, and caring staff; clean facility; camera-secure, and easy to access from highway 65. In addition, Kathy worked with us to park, overnight, a 28-foot trailer needed for our move AND helped us with our lock when we had a self-induced key snafu. Because of her, our move continued smoothly. Thank you.

Wow, is all I can say! This facility has it all; large, new, clean, reasonably priced, and great customer service.

Review №83

Very clean and easily accessible. I love having my belongings stored here! I wish it was open 24 hours, but otherwise its great.To the 22 hostile commenters, only one of you had the personal experience to begin with. Isn’t it possible that this was some kind of misunderstanding? If you weren’t there, it doesn’t help the matter to pile on. It just feels like misplaced outrage. If the employee truly and intentionally discriminated against that customer then I recant all of this. But we just don’t know and in my mind that initial review is no more trustworthy than the employee’s point of view. Not less or more trustworthy. There is so much rush to judgement and rage these days. We’d all do better to take a breath and ask more questions. Assume the best rather than the worst.

Very efficient and fast with the reservation when I first decided to rent there.I started in the winter. Was always warm and never needed a sweatshirt.Carts and elevators made renting a unit in the second floor easy.Called to key themknow when I was going to bed done and no issues or miscommunication!Well worth it.Hours if access are 6 am-9pm. Im a night owl, so that was my only hiccup some days if I needed access. But other than... Great storage facility.

I would recommend Metro Self Storage in Blaine to anyone looking for a storage facility. While the facility is clean, offers climate controlled units and has an awesome security system, site Manager Kathy is an absolute GEM! Not only will she help you select the right sized storage unit for your needs, she has moving supplies available if you need them. Need a moving company? Kathy can refer you to reliable movers who will treat your valuables like they would their own. Dont be afraid to take a 2nd or 3rd floor unit; Metro has carts to move your possessions and the elevators are large and quick. The only mistake you could make is to NOT choose Metro Self Storage in Blaine!

If youre LGBT or POC, STAY AWAY! You will be treated like garbage. I walked in, looking to get either a 10 by 5, 10 by 10, or even 10 by 15 storage unit. Ive had several indoor/climate-controlled storage units in Minnesota and so far, this is the most expensive Ive looked at. I did mention that to the person giving me a tour and they seemed to be personally offended that I brought up price. My existing indoor storage unit is a 10 by 10 and Im paying $79 after tax, but its quite a drive (Burnsville) which is why I wanted something north of the metro.I filled out my paperwork for a 5 by 10 unit for $89/month, bought the lock you can only get from Metro Storage for $15 and signed up for their insurance ($9/month). I mentioned my girlfriend/partner and the employee said, This isnt going to be a good fit, and refused to rent to me, presumably because Im a leabian.I left without incident and called corporate. The employee did not specify what wasnt a good fit about me, but after you tell someone youre gay and they stop the transaction, tell you to GTFO and your money is not good here, you just leave and be glad you didnt submit your girlfriend to this totally unprofessional jerk. I was ASTONISHED this isnt a franchise operation because this employee didnt want my money as soon as they found out I was queer. If I was a district manager of Metro Storage, I would be mortified a customer was treated this way.Again, if you arent a straight white person, take a lesson from my experience and AVOID Metro Storage locations! They dont deserve your business and are overpriced to begin with.
