Inside Storage Spot – Whitney Bebb!

Posted by storagespot on December 28, 2010

Happy Holidays to everyone!

Thought we would do an exposé on another one of our amazing people who make up Storage Spot!

Profile #2

Name: Whitney Bebb

Rank: Burlington Facility Assistant Team Leader

1. What is your favourite movie/song?

- My favourite movie would have to be The Notebook. I went to school for gerontology and dementia studies. I will always feel for the people and their families who suffer from Alzheimer’s. The movie displayed the heart wrenching reality for those families.

2. If you were a salad, what kind of dressing would you want?

- Something creamy. I would like to stay warm in the fridge.

3. Hollywood has made a movie about your life, whom would you like to see play the lead role as you?

- Jennifer love Hewitt. She was great on Party of Five. She also seems to stay out of the spotlight.

4. You have just won the lottery and want to use it to make the world a better place, what would you do with the money?

- Set up a drop off center for people suffering from Alzheimer’s so their caregivers can have a much deserved break.. There would also be a place for the caregivers to get some counseling .

5. If you were stranded on a deserted island, what three things would you take with you?

  • A picture of my son.
  • Water
  • Food

6. What are the qualities you admire most in a friend?

  • Honest
  • Trustworthy
  • Patient

7. If you could be a superhero, which superhero would you be?

- Mighty mouse

8. And last but not least, a not so subtle “compliment the business” question: Why is Storage Spot superior to any other Storage Facility?

We take the time to listen to our customers. As a result we offer some amazing services such as, pick, pack and ship, receiving of products and shredding. The friendly staff is always willing to go the extra mile to make sure our customers are happy. We have a clean bright facility that will make you feel safe, we also have state of the art security and each unit has it’s own alarm system, so you can be sure your contents are safe.

Come on in for a tour and I know you will be impressed.

Storage Spot in the Community

Posted by storagespot on December 17, 2010

It’s that time of the year where people all over the world are giving and receiving.

On most of the faces you pass in the street, you’ll find either a smile because that person knows exactly what to get for their special someone, or a befuddled look for the person that hasn’t yet started shopping with only a few days left before the holidays!

Here at Storage Spot, we like to give back to the community by working with various companies whose goal it is to help others like Children’s Aid, Halton Women’s Shelter and the Salvation Army.

So how can we all help out?

Storage Spot Canada takes in gently used items from the public and puts them into units assigned to each charity to keep them safe and secure and have them ready at any time for the charity to access the units.

Come on out and visit Storage Spot Canada and drop off any gently used items such as:

  • clothing,
  • furniture,
  • household goods.

And even though it goes without saying, make sure whatever you drop off is clean and in good condition.

Help us make a world of difference in the community.

Happy Holidays to all!

Sincerely,

Storage Spot Canada

Scary Storage!

Posted by storagespot on December 1, 2010

Our story takes place at a Storage Unit somewhere in North America…

As she approached the darkened, seemingly deserted storage building, a flock of crows scattered upwards into the black sky.

A loud creaking sound followed the opening of the main door as a black cat dashed furtively through her legs.

Startled,  she fumbled blindly for the light switch to guide her to her unit.

Even though it was cold outside, it was even colder inside as she inched slowly, tripping over the clutter of scattered garbage at her feet,  towards her dusty storage unit.

“What was that noise?!” She thought as she  glanced over her shoulder behind her…a gasp escaping from her lips…

Sound familiar?

Lets face it.  Some storage facilities were clearly designed with Halloween in mind…without the treat!

Here at Storage Spot, we have designed our facilities specifically with women in mind. Which not only makes them feel safe, but also their stuff.

With 24 hour surveillance, Climate Controlled rental units and well-lit hallways with intercoms, I, as a woman, would feel very safe.  And yes of course I am biased so why don’t you come see for yourself.

Come take a tour at one of our facilities located in Milton or Burlington.

We’d love to have you and we promise your visit will be a treat and we won’t say BOO!
