Storage Facility InsuranceDiasters can strike at anytime, anywhere, and unless you have taken out an insurance policy which covers your stored belongings the consequences could be devastating. Now that you have decided to Store with us, there is one more thing to consider… insuring your stored belongings. Please check with your Insurance Agent to determine if your items in storage are covered. In most cases your Homeowners, or Renters, insurance policy will offer little or no coverage for the contents in your storage unit. Let me state this again becuase it is so often overlooked, or taken for granted. Your Homeowners, or Renters, insurance policy will most likely not cover your stored possessions.  

At West Cantrell Self Storage we have taken great caution to provide you with a safe and secure storage place. We carry surety bonds and storage facility insurance; however, we are not responsible for any damages that may occur to your belongings.

You can ask your insurance agent about purchasing storage insurance, or for just pennies a day you can purchase Insurance for your stored belongings thru an insurance agency such Deans & Homer Self Storage Insurance Company.

During the Rental process one of our Storage Counselors will be happy to provide you with the details about Self Storage Insurance. A Deans & Homer storage insurance policy will cover against the following:

  • Fire
  • Theft
  • Water Damage
  • Smoke Damage
  • Lighting
  • Vandalism
  • Earthquake
  • Windstorm
  • Explosion
  • Hail
  • Riot
  • Building Collapse
  1. Damage caused by Flood is not covered.
  2. Loss by Earthquake is subject to a $1000 deductible.

(FEMA provides flood insurance, and your local agent should be able to write a policy covering your belongings from water or flood damage).

Among other extras, Deans & Homer policies also cover your property while in transit to or from your rental storage spaces.
