West Evans
"My name is Louis Bell. I have been a tenant at West Evans Storage for about 20 years. There are many reasons why I chose West Evans and remain there to this day:Location had much to do with it. I live in Capital Hill Denver and West Evans is 4.7 miles from my home. I can ride my bicycle, tricycle,motorcycle or Jeep to easily get there. The storage park is just blocks away from the Platte River bicycle trail. I'm a fairly serious bicycle rider and I love the Platte River trail. Denver is rated 5th in the nation for the best bicycle trails and West Evans makes itself very convenient for that reason. Sometimes I'll store one of my cycles there. That way I don't completely clutter up my home with bicycle and tricycle.The storage park is surrounded by substantial physical boundaries and security cameras with alarms. I've never had anything vandalized or stolen in all the years that I've been there.There are several different sizes of parking spaces designed to accommodate private, commercial, combination and recreational vehicles.There are large units (10'x12'x30') with electricity. These units are large enough to have businesses such as the one that I had for many years. I had a complete woodshop with room to spare. I was able to back my trailer in with my Jeep straight back without having to jackknife my trailer. In all the different units that I've had, I have never had any rain or flood damage. This is due in part to the well-designed concrete paved drainage system.Over the years, the owners have always hired the best management teams available. All management teams are well informed as to the policies and wishes of the owners. There have been four management teams in the twenty years that I've been a tenant there and I remain friends with some of these great people.The current management team, Cliff and Karen, have been in this field for over a decade. They are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I like them. I particularly like their vicious guard dog, Bambi. Very dangerous animal! Watch it!There's a restroom available in the office everyday during business hours six days a week. When closed, there is a well maintained chemical toilet outside. The office offers cold and hot drinking water from the dispenser. I believe there's free coffee, too. When Karen's not looking, you might be able to pilfer a piece of candy or two.I believe that one can have large items delivered there and if it's large and heavy, Cliff might help you move it with the forklift.There is a large dumpster on site available to tenants once you get it cleared with the office.There is also the occasional auction there. The office will let you know when they're scheduled. The auctions can be fun. They remind me a little bit of the gambling casinos West of town.There are package rental deals. I don't remember details but I know that you might pay for one year's rent in advance and get one of those months free. Something like that. The owners are interesting people. One of them likes bicycles and cats. Another one was in the Marines. He likes cars and guns. I'll bet it would be fun to hang out with them.I think that's it. I hope you come to West Evans to become one of my neighbors. Who knows? We might even become friends. Louis Bell"
