For a 3 bedroom house, a 10' x 15' foot (150 sq ft) or 10' x 20' (200 sq ft), should be able to fit most belongings. These unit sizes are equivalent to a garage, with ample space for large appliances, mattresses, furniture, electronics, and tools.

I am so grateful for the amazing staff at sentinel! I was in a bit of a pickle, and when I went in the amazing staff, Betty, Tamara and Dupsy were able to get me all sorted out stress free! Awesome facility with easy access and amazing people.

Edward Smith

Just moved my belongings to this facility at the end of December 2022. Hallways are clean and bright. Front desk staff are attentive, courteous, and professional. I wanted to switch to a different unit and the two women working the main counter, Betty and Dupsy, made it happen without a fuss. This facility has two loading bays on one side of the building and another bay on the other side. There are several flat carts on site to help with loading. Elevator to upper and lower levels. Access is 6 am to 10 pm. Parking. Good neighbourhood. Washrooms near reception. Moving supplies sold on site. I recommend this facility.

The Gibbons Family

The units are clean, warm and the front staff are amazing! Those ladies were so helpful and friendly. I will definitely only use Sentinel for my storage needs. The Bowness location rocks ! They sent monthly invoices, reminders my bill was coming up.  Love these ladies. Thanks for taking good care of our stuff.
