Grace Self Storage

First, the wrong box was delivered to us, from their cheaper sister company. Big holes in it and black mould. They also were adamant that they would call me before leaving the box but despite me leaving verbal, written and a map description of where to leave it they dropped it on the wrong street. It took them a whole day to come and move it to my house. Then another two days to replace it with the better box that I was paying for. The box is a meter off the ground so very hard to load. Then they took three days to collect it despite them saying they’d get it the next day. When just closing my account, James told me that by closing early I wouldn’t have to pay for the next month but I was charged anyway and even though he said he would refund me I haven’t been. I spoke with a woman on the phone who told me I could have the box redelivered to my home any day so I organised with a removalist to come on a Saturday to unpack it and load it in his truck before calling Grace SS who told me they can’t deliver it back on Fridays, Saturdays or Sundays. It was very complicated rescheduling everything. I left specific instructions for the guy dropping it back to call my dad as I don’t live in Sydney anymore and even rang and checked the day before and the woman told me the driver would definitely call my dad not me. Luckily I left my phone on that night as the driver called me at 5:30am to say he was outside. I asked him to call my Dad and he said he would. After ten minutes I called my Dad but the guy had not called him and never did. We had other issues with them whenever I called, with them not knowing who I was referring to, what I was talking about, telling me conflicting information etc. I have never dealt with a more disorganised company and I’m glad to have my stuff back and out of their establishment. I haven’t unpacked it yet but hope it’s okay.

THIS IS THE WORST COMPANY I HAD TO DEAL WITH. I havent got any thing in my house i am 68 and my husband is 74 and they told me to get my own drivers and removalists

We could not be more pleased with the excellent service given by John Hernandez, he was very courteous, helpful and extremely efficient.
I would definately recommend Smartbox in the future.

Very happy, everyone I dealt with were polite, helpful, great customer service. James was outstanding trying to help our move go as smoothly as possible. John, the driver was terrific (as was Devin) giving us the time to make sure the set up of the pod was as good as possible to meet our needs. To sum up, exceptional service and communication, very helpful and polite staff. All this and very reasonable price making moving as ease as. Would definitely recommend them and use again.

We have a storage pod with Grace and each time I have had to contact their office, all staff have been extremely helpful and accommodating. They have helped us beyond my expectations and it is reassuring to be able to deal with real people who listen and are happy to help.

I had the most excellent service from a gentleman from James - he went above and beyond for me - no issue was too hard and he was very pleasant to deal with - because of him i will use this storage service the next time i need a storage box.
thank you James

The service that was provided from the first call to the next day when I had difficulty filling the form and to the terrific team that stored my furniture thank you. Will recommend your company.

I was very happy with the service. John was very competent and professional. I was very impressed by him and his two fellow workers.
I will definitely recommend Grace.

This is our first time moving and we can't thank everyone at Grace enough for their fabulous service.. From our first call to the actual move was flawless. A special mention must be made about Andre our driver who was amazing. This man was worth two men and there is no way we would have coped without his knowledge. Thank you Andre very much!!!

Very accommodating for booking and was able to keep container a day longer which was a massive help. Great customer service.

Everyone I dealt with was really friendly and helpful and they managed to get everything organised at the last minute. Very reasonably priced too for the quality of service.

Had a lot of help for a last minute move. With great customer service I was able to organise a removalist a day later. Thanks for the help guys.

From day one we asked for a quote to the last day we have our stuff removed, the team of Grace Storage has been awesome! Very easy to deal with, very efficient and always full of energy. Strongly recommend them to anyone!

I've never bothered to write a review of a business but I've had it with these guys. I used them to move out of my apartment and store items for a year. First, they sent a studio box for my 1 bedroom apartment. Of course my things didn't fit so then they had to call for another box. The movers were unprofessional and didn't wrap any of my furniture and sat and did nothing while they were waiting for the second box to come. They could have finished moving things down the elevator. Then they tried to charge me for the time we had to wait for the other storage box to come. It doesn't end there. Now, I have to pay almost double for storage for a year because of their mistake. I'm ready to move now and they quoted me 3K to move my things to Melbourne! I called A2Z Moving and they are doing it for $1,300. More than that, I'm just trying to confirm that I can schedule my move and some guy [name removed] is supposed to call me back but guess, what he never does and the guy I just spoke to hung on me. These guys are a nightmare. Stay away.

I am absolutely disgraced with your service. The supposed “manager” James who called me today was appalling. The tone in his voice was one who should not be representing your company. The fact that he was calling me a liar for his mistake was unimaginable! Not once or EVER did he tell me the storage unit had to be picked up the next day by 12pm.

Never ever have I had a problem with your company before. Every time previously everyone has been so helpful and understanding in providing quality customer care.

You can probably see from my customer file that I have had the storage unit for a number of days before it was collected in the past. The fact that this policy has changed and is a now blanket ‘NO’ should be communicated with your customers, prior to be being abused on the phone. Especially in the circumstance where your customer has negotiated a delivery date as the first one was not suitable and WORKED WITH YOU. For a WHOLE week we went without furniture. You should also state in your terms and conditions to give 2 weeks notice for re-delivery! As in the past I have called and its been delivered 3 days later! Not 2 weeks.

Also not to mention the fact that the storage units are now delivered on a trailer with a height of 1 meter from the ground! This is UNSAFE for your customers. Originally you had a service where this was delivered using a fork lift and placed on the ground. Allowing people to walk straight into the container to load/unload there items.

I am so very embarrassed that I have given praise to your company to friends and family.

Let me remind you…

How does this service work?
"we can leave it there so that you can load your belongings in your own time"

We used Grace storage to book a 20cbm Cage back in 2016. The price was very competitive, however, what led us to book was the overall service offered by James. He was helpful and also flexible to our needs. The storage container was delivered on time and really was a saving grace (pun intended) whilst we were selling our house. It was secure and dry and stored most of our 3bd house furnishings.

Thanks guys

Fast on dealing,easy booking, reasonable price. Many different sizes to choose. I would prefer to have more things inside box to stablelize from movings.

I used Grace storage and Grace removals for storing my stuff with them for 6 months and then to move from Syd to Melb. They were just amazing in both services. Being a toddler's mom I had lot of stress on how things will go with such a move but they were so efficient in loading/unloading it was just worth it. Also they were so supportive when they did small damage in my new apartment, they sent handyman (free) to repair it which is such an amazing customer service. They were prompt and helpful. I would definitely use them again and recommend them if you want a peaceful move.

From day of pick up was worse experience I've had didn't happen was a day late cost me another day of rent and my partner and myself both self employed a days work.
Then I was told if you didn't use a full month you were refunded so only using 2 weeks into my 2nd month still paid a full month storage and insurance, so 2 weeks insurance and there not insuring your belongings.
Then came time to move you was informed easter sat was opened so organised my move then told no sorry wrong information.
Then they take your return of container fee a week prior to you even receiving it!

Sincerest thanks & storage loads of gratitude to all the crew at Grace Bros. particularly Charles & our man on ground Andrew. Could not have done it without you. You came to our rescue in a time of great need & for this we are eternally grateful. Best & nicest in the biz!
