All my stuff wrecked from an indoor storage unit

I found several complaint about their storage facilities and vermin. I found nothing regarding a successful lawsuit for it.

My stuff was wrecked too...

Hi Daniel,

I came across your post while searching the internet for anyone else who has also had this terrible thing happen to them. I recently moved out of my storage unit in Boston, MA and was horrified to find rat poop/urine covering and ruining my belongings. The storage company said that they don't cover any damage and the insurance policy that I was required to get also says they don't cover vermin.

I was wondering what ended up happening to you regarding this issue and if you have any advice on how I should proceed. I am considering small claims court and going to the BBB.

Thanks in advance.

Same problem...

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
MN

I purchased an indoor climate controlled storage unit in January and stored my stuff until a few days ago. When I opened the unit, all my belongings were ruined from urine and feces from mice. The insurance I purchased did not cover this. I told the staff and they did not seem surprised and just said one of the other people who moved into a indoor storage unit brought them. I bought an indoor unit so this would not happen. I want to file a small claims suit to get my money back from the unit but I also lost approx 2000 dollars in belongings. What can I do?

Just FYI, the BBB is a consumer advocacy agency that provides mediation services and reviews/ratings, some of which may be somewhat biased. They are not a government or regulatory agency and have no power to resolve disputes beyond what the parties themselves give them.
