Paperwork
Please sign your lease and complete the form to elect recurring billing and mail all paperwork to our mailing address within 5 days of receipt. We do not have an office on-site; handling things through the mail and over the phone makes it easier for everyone rather than trying to coordinate schedules to meet on-site. Failure to return a signed lease does not release you from the terms of the lease. Once you’ve moved-in, you are subject to the rental contract by virtue of placing your property in the storage unit. The lease is for your protection as well as ours. Please return it in the SASE provided.
Your Unit….Your Lock
The lock present on the unit when you move-in is the property of Affordable Self-Storage, LLC. It is not to be used to secure your personal property. Tenants are required to provide their own lock. Failure to do so within 14 days of rental will result in being charged $50 for the lock (at which time the tenant assumes ownership). Locks can be purchased at any big box or hardware store for $13-$15. A quick trip to the store can save you money and insure you’re the only one with the key!
Storage Insurance
For your benefit and protection, insurance for your stored items is recommended, but not required. We do not provide insurance coverage on your personal property. In most cases, your homeowner’s insurance may suffice. Check with your agent about adding a secondary temporary location to your policy or check int renter’s insurance .
Hours You Can Visit
Your unit is available to visit 24 hours a day so you can come and go as needed. There is limited lighting on the property, so we recommend scheduling time during daylight hours. NO ON-SITE OFFICE.

Hours You Can Call
Home office answering hours are:
Monday – Friday: 9:00 am to 6:00 pm
Saturday: 9:00 am to 3:00 pm
Closed Sundays and Major Holidays
Emergency?

you may call 260.466.2705. Leave a message and we will return your call as soon as is reasonably possible.
When It’s Time to Vacate
You can stay as long as you need to store your items. But when you no longer need your storage unit, please follow the following guidelines to insure you receive a proper security deposit refund:
- Remove all items from your unit. Do not leave debris or items you no longer want. Please discard unwanted items off the property.
- Please sweep out your unit as this is how the unit was when you leased it. If new stains/marks result from your tenancy, your security deposit will not be refunded.
- Lock your unit using the gold lock you found on the unit when you moved-in.
- Failure to follow the above requirements will forfeit your deposit.
- Deposits will be returned via mail once we have inspected your unit and find it in satisfactory condition.
When you are completely out of the unit, please call so we can inspect it and confirm the correct mailing address for your security deposit refund.
