Below are the rules and regulations that the individual (hereafter “Customer”) leasing a storage space (hereafter “Unit”) from A&S Storage (hereafter “Owner”) are required to understand and follow:
Fees & Rent.
Customers will not receive an invoice for the Monthly Rent unless Customers pay a monthly invoice fee in the amount determined by the Owner.
The Agreement does not include all fees, expenses, or charges that Customers may be required to pay under the Agreement, and the Owner reserves the right to charge additional fees.
Owner reserves the right to increase, decrease, supplement, or otherwise modify any fees or charges in the Agreement by either sending advance notice directly to the Customer, or posting advance notice of any such change on this website or in the office.
The list of fees set forth in this Agreement is not all inclusive and additional fees may apply.
Your rent is due the 1st of EVERY month.
Payments received after the 5th day of the month will be assessed a $20.00 late fee and Entry through the main gate will be restricted. Your Unit will also be over-locked until your account is paid in full.
Accepted Forms of Payment.
We accept credit cards, debit cards, ACH or money orders. NO CASH or personal check payments are accepted. You can pay online with a credit card or call in your credit card. Money orders can be dropped off in the drop box on site.
Owner may refuse any form of payment other than Cash or Money Order when a Customer is in default.
General Facility & Storing Rules.
Office hours are by appointment only. Please call 860-310-4215 24-hours in advance to schedule an appointment.
Gate hours are from 5:00 AM to 10:00 PM daily, including weekends and holidays.
Electrical outlets, water, and the dumpster are for owners and site managers use only. Site is under security surveillance. Any violation of these will result in fees imposed on the Customers’ account.
Customers are REQUIRED to have insurance for their stored personal property. A&S Storage is not responsible for damage to your belongings from weather, fire, pest, theft or any other occurrence. We can provide this for a very affordable price.
Customers are forbidden from residing in or running a business out of the Unit.
Customers may NOT store guns, ammunition, weapons and/or illegal drugs in the Unit. Marijuana is considered illegal even if it is legal in the state where the facility is located.
Customers may NOT store plants, perishable food or any live animals.
Customers may NOT store or abandon hazardous materials in the Unit including, without limitation, substances that are toxic, reactive, volatile, flammable, explosive, hazardous, or corrosive, or that are, at any time, regulated by state, Federal or local authorities.
Customers may NOT store items that, in Owner’s determination, attract vermin, create a nuisance, have a noxious odor or stench, or endanger the safety or health of people or the environment including, without limitation, mothballs.
Customers may NOT bring pets to the Facility or Unit other than trained service dogs.
Occupants must be 18 years or older to rent a storage unit.
Upon vacating the Unit at the end or termination of the lease, the Customer must remove their lock and completely clean out the Unit. All trash must be removed and properly disposed of from the storage facility.
Customers may not loiter at the facility nor use the facility for any unlawful, fraudulent, or deceptive purposes.
No assigning or subletting Unit by Customer.
Customers are not allowed to modify or alter the Unit.
The storage facility is a smoke free facility. No smoking is allowed anywhere on the facility.
Customers may only use one lock per Unit.
The speed limit on the facility grounds is 5 mph.
Unsecured Units & Over-locks.
Owner may place a new lock on any Unit that is not secured by a lock. Customers will pay for the costs of the new lock and any other costs incurred by Owner in connection with the new lock.
If an unsecured Unit is vacant, or if there are only items that appear to be trash, Owner may dispose of the trash, at Customer’s cost, and consider the Agreement terminated.
If Rent is 30 days or more past due, the Owner will remove Customer’s lock from the Unit to prepare for the sale of the Unit Contents.
Facility Gates, Driveways & Security.
If there is a gate at the Facility, Customers must follow all procedures to enter the gate. If no procedures are posted, then the following procedures apply:
Customers must pull up to and enter Customer’s gate code into the keypad.
Customers must wait for the gate to open completely before driving through the gate area.
After the gate has fully opened, only 1 vehicle may drive through the gate area. Each vehicle must enter a gate code into the keypad to access the property. Customers are warned that when a gate code is entered into the keypad, the gate opens only for enough time to allow 1 vehicle to drive through the gate area. The gate may close on, and damage, a vehicle if more than 1 vehicle enters through the gate when a gate code is entered into the keypad. Owner is not liable for this damage.
Customers will be responsible to pay to the Owner all costs incurred by the Owner to repair any damage to the gate or fence due to Customer’s or Customer’s guests improper use or negligence.
All driveways at the facility are for vehicular use only. Pedestrians are not permitted to walk through the driveways.
Any security systems at the Store such as fences, gates, or video cameras are for Owner’s protection only. Customers may not rely on these security systems to protect the contents in their unit.
Vehicle Storage.
If a motorized vehicle including, without limitation, a car, boat, motorcycle, snow mobile, or wave runner (called “Vehicle”), is stored in a Unit, the following requirements must be complied with:
The Vehicle must be stored over drip trays or cardboard to prevent fluids from leaking into the Unit. If fluids from the Vehicle leak into the Unit or Facility, Customer will remediate the Unit or Facility at Customer’s expense in accordance with applicable laws.
The gas tank must be drained.
If a Vehicle is stored in an outside parking lot at the Facility, the following requirements must be complied with:
The Vehicle must be insured.
At Owner’s request, identification stickers, decals, or tags must be placed in the Vehicle so that they are visible from the outside of the Vehicle.
In the event of an emergency, Owner may relocate the Vehicle to different areas of the Store without notice.
The Vehicle must be in good, operational condition.
Only 1 Vehicle may be stored in a Space.
If a Customer is in default of the Agreement, Owner may, without incurring any liability, have any Vehicle being stored by the Customer towed at the Customer’s expense.
No work may be performed on any vehicle at the storage facility, including changing oil, antifreeze, or other fluids.
Special Equipment & Keys.
If any special equipment such as remote controls, keys, or portable electronic devices is provided to a Customer, it is the Customer’s responsibility to protect and safeguard the equipment. If the equipment is damaged or lost, Customer will pay to Owner the cost to replace or repair the equipment.
Customers must protect and safeguard Customer’s keys to the Unit. If Customer loses a key, it is recommended that Customer replace Customer’s lock immediately to avoid unauthorized access. Owner does not verify the authority of those entering Units with keys.

Temperature.
The temperature in a Unit is not controlled unless a Unit is designated as a “temperature controlled” Unit.
When a Unit is designated as a “temperature controlled” Unit, it means that we use reasonable efforts to maintain a temperature in the building where the Unit is located of between 55 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit. The temperature control may be accomplished through any type of system including, without limitation, “swamp coolers.” You will regularly inspect the Unit and protect the Unit Contents from the growth of mold and mildew. Owner is not liable for the growth of mold or mildew on the Unit Contents.
