Great secure storage facility with very helpful staff, spotless units, and competitive rates. The manager Irma is amazing. She walked me through all the storage options available and recommended a perfect corner unit based on my storage and access needs. Highly recommended, especially if you are looking for an outdoor storage unit with drive-up access for trucks that require wide and high clearances.“

Trisha (sp?) called me immediately after chatting through the website -despite it being the absolute last minutes of her shift- and stayed on the phone with me for another 45 minutes as we finalized my agreement. All so I would be able to move in tonight despite their office being closed for the day. Thats what I call impeccable customer service and CARE. Well done Trisha. Truly refreshing to have this type of experience in this day and age when they’ve become exceedingly rare. I guess on the plus side is that it will always stick in my memory as a stand out performance.:)“

I would highly recommend the Bay Area Self Storage (BASS) in San Mateo, especially because of its outstanding front office staff, Irma and Zyra. They are always helpful and patient, even during their busiest moments. The storage facility itself is consistently clean and well maintained, especially compared to several other storage establishments I’ve used throughout the Peninsula. I also truly appreciate that security is a top priority here. At a previous storage facility, there were multiple break-ins, and the facility offered very limited security and accountability, which makes this location’s commitment to safety especially reassuring.Our Online Rental Process is Quick, Convenient and Easy

If you're unsure of what size you should choose, head over to our size guide to get a better idea of what you need.
There are a number of items you cannot store at Bay Area Self Storage San Mateo.
You cannot store combustible materials because of the threat of them catching fire. These items include fireworks, fuel tanks, fertilizer, paint thinner, and so on. If it seems like it'll easily catch fire, avoid storing it. You also cannot store firearms.
You cannot store living animals or plants. Do not treat a storage space as a replacement for a proper pet sitter. Not only are storage spaces not built for people or animals to live in them, but the food you leave out for your pets could also attract pests. Similarly, plant soil could attract pests as well.
You cannot store food of any type including, but not limited to, canned foods, perishable foods, dry foods, or pet food for similar reasons. Food will attract pests and will cause an infestation in your storage space and spread to others.
Lastly, you cannot store illegal items such as prohibited weapons, illicit drugs, drug paraphernalia, and stolen items. If it's not legal to house it elsewhere, you cannot store it here.
You do need a lock to secure your storage space. If you do not have a lock, we offer locks for sale here at Bay Area Self Storage San Mateo.
You don't need a reservation to rent a storage space here at Bay Area Self Storage San Mateo.

We offer both indoor and drive up storage here at Bay Area Self Storage San Mateo, and each comes with different advantages depending on how you plan to use them.
The term indoor storage describes storage spaces that are found inside a building. These storage spaces provide more protection against the elements than drive up spaces because they're fully covered inside of a structure.
Drive-up storage spaces are located along the exterior of the building so you can literally drive right up to them. These spaces allow you to easily unload and load your vehicle, making it a breeze to put stuff in, or take stuff out of your storage space. These are convenient spaces if you know you're going to store belongings that would be difficult to carry in and out of a building, especially when those buildings have multiple floors.
We offer RV, car, and boat storage here at Bay Area Self Storage San Mateo. We're conveniently located at 1150 19th Ave , San Mateo, CA, so come on by if you need to securely store your vehicle. We offer a variety of parking sizes and you can easily check if we have the size that's right for you by checking the storage types section of our website.
