Renter Protection Plan

Secure Storage does not personally insure the items inside your self storage unit, however, we do offer the Secure Protection Plan.  With our Secure Protection Plan Secure Storage does assume limited liability for the goods stored inside your storage unit, with better coverage, terms, and conditions than traditional renters insurance or homeowners insurance. For just a few cents every day, you are covered up to $2,500 from:

 Fire • Explosion • Smoke Damage • Theft • Vandalism • Malicious Mischief • Water Damage from a Roof Leak • Windstorm • Building Damage • Impacts from Aircraft or Vehicles

It is a requirement of Secure Storage’s rental agreement that all customers carry insurance or protection during their rental. We will gladly access your homeowners or renters insurance as coverage.
