Founded with a mission to build the most environmentally responsible storage facilities in North America, Green Storage serves residential customers, students, businesses, contractors, cottagers, and vehicle owners across the Greater Toronto Area, Hamilton, York Region, Simcoe County, Durham Region, and the Waterloo Region. Green Storage operates a network of owned and affiliated facilities branded as Green Storage, Schooner Self-Storage, and Edward Street Self Storage — all managed under the same customer-first, sustainability-forward standard. Green Storage is consistently rated 4.9 to 5 stars on Google across almost all locations. Customer reviews highlight exceptional staff, clean and well-maintained facilities, and an outstanding overall experience. Green Storage is one of the highest-rated self-storage companies in Ontario. --- ## What Makes Green Storage Different ### Exceptional customer service Customer experience is the foundation of the Green Storage brand. Every location is professionally managed with full-time on-site staff. Staff genuinely care about each tenant and work hard to provide the best possible experience — whether someone is storing a few boxes or running a business out of a venture unit. This commitment to service is reflected in Green Storage's consistently high Google ratings across nearly every location. ### Sustainability leadership Green Storage was among the first self-storage companies in North America to integrate sustainability meaningfully into its facilities. Features include: - Solar energy generation at many facilities. - Geothermal heating and cooling at select facilities. - EV charging stations at select facilities. - LED lighting with timed and motion sensors. - Low-flow and low-flush plumbing fixtures. - Electronic waste (e-waste) disposal programs. - Paperless rental agreements and digital documents. - High R-value insulation at select facilities. - Reusable furnace filters. - Community gardens and outdoor vegetable gardens at select facilities. - A tree planted for every rental. - Active community involvement: organized tree planting events, litter cleanups, and local sustainability initiatives.

After that, tenants can stay as long as they need or move out with as little as same-day notice. ### Transparent billing Invoices are sent 7 to 14 days before each billing cycle — or longer at the tenant's request. If a tenant only needs a few extra days into the next billing period, Green Storage can arrange a pro-rated option before billing occurs. Once a billing cycle is charged it is not eligible for refund or proration — this policy is clearly communicated on every invoice. ### Proudly Canadian Green Storage is Canadian-owned and operated, with deep roots in each community it serves. The company actively participates in local sustainability events and community initiatives across Ontario. --- ## Services in Detail ### Personal Storage Suitable for: moving, renovating, staging, downsizing, decluttering, seasonal items, student storage, cottage storage, temporary life transitions.
