    I rent a self storage unit from Devon Self storage for over two years while I was in *******. The address of the facility is **************************************. When I returned to ******* to empty the unit out I was absolutely shocked at the condition. It was rat infested! I have five witnesses besides myself. I have a picture of a dead rat in the unit. About 70% of my boxes had rat f**** in them. I have pictures of chewed furniture as well. It was disgusting. I paid them about $7,000 to safely store my possessions. I have not been able to get anyone to return my calls. Devon will also not give you a phone number to the corporate headquarters. I have filled out the appropriate forms to get a return call. No one will return my calls.

    This former tenant had food stored inside of her unit she was told about it and denied but then said that she would clean it out, these photos were taken when the tenant went into auction status, and we cut the lock on 1/20/2025 to do an inventory of the unit.

    The vehicle that this former tenant said was stolen off of our property was not the vehicle that he said he would be storing.  Upon moving in he said that he will be storing a tan color pickup truck that was inoperable and a white inoperable white minivan.  Mr **** did not store this vehicle with us.
