Protect Your Possessions With Safestor
Protect Your Goods in Storage
Unforeseen and unexpected losses can happen as the result of natural disasters, weather, and other events beyond anyone's control. Protecting your stored goods from such losses is your responsibility. While precautions are taken to provide you with a safe and secure storage environment, Storage Express is not responsible for losses that may occur. For that reason, we offer Safestor- an inexpensive, optional insurance plan to safeguard your stored goods.
Why Safestor?
For those customers who have homeowner's or renter's coverage, these policies often restrict the amount of coverage or impose additional exclusions for goods stored away from the insured's residence. Often, customers who store their goods are moving and between homes. As a result, they may not have homeowner's, renter's, or any other insurance policy in effect to insure their stored goods. Safestor was especially designed to provide self-storage customers with low-cost insurance for their goods while in storage. Safestor is available in $1,000, $5,000, $10,000, or $15,000 coverage limits, with a $100 deductible for each covered loss.
