I am trying to warn people of businesses that I have dealt with in the past that are unscrupulous. One such place is Timmerman Self Storage in Gettysburg, PA. I relocated for a job and the project ended and I was laid off. I immediately called the Timmermans and explained my situation and they assured me that they would work with me while I was waiting for unemployment to kick in. I got a notice from them that said that if I do not pay them by a certain date that they would open the locker on that date and auction the contents. I called them immediately and assured them that I would be there that weekend which was before the date that they said that they would open the locker and they said that that would be fine. I had managed to get a part-time job and couldnt make the 1 hour drive until that weekend. I arrived early that Saturday and found that they had already opened my locker and started unloading the contents. Besides my things, I had my dads flag from his Navy military funeral and a few boxes of his other things, family research, my scrapbooks, things of my mom and sister that they could not take down to FL when they relocated down there, a few boxes of other my sisters baby things that I was saving for her kids, and my rubberstamps that I used to make bookmarks for Womens Aglow meetings. At least they were kind enough return my dads flag. They figured that if I was saving these things for a year that there must be something of value in it.
Even though I showed up prior to the date that they listed in their letter they broke into my locker and stole my personal effects and would not let me have what was let. The local police would not help even though I showed them the letter. I was a month behind.
This was unethical and since I was unable to hire an attorney, I lost everything.
They were adding (construction) on to their home at our (customers) expense.
Be wary of dealing with this company and know that the local police will not help if you find yourself in a similar situation.
Avoid using this company...
