What is your most memorable or heartfelt memory about working for Guardian Self Storage?
I had a blind gentleman my age come in to rent a unit on a rainy day. He said he was homeless and needed to store a few things until he got on his feet. I had to hold his hand to sign the rental agreement and walk upstairs with him so he could count the steps to his unit. On the way back downstairs he talked about his time in the military serving in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria. Truly a pleasure to help and serve those who served us.
