EDMONTON, ALBERTA  — 02/15/12 — With today’s acquisition of British Columbia-based Apex Self Storage, Sentinel Self-Storage is now the only 100% Canadian owned and operated mini storage company with a coast to coast reach. Apex Self Storage, opened in 2003, boasts state-of-the-art facilities in South Vancouver, Richmond and Coquitlam with secure 24-hour self access. In addition to heated mini storage, the Richmond and Coquitlam locations also provide outdoor storage for cars, boats and RVs. Residential clients can take advantage of temporary or long-term contracts for household, recreational and seasonal storage items. Commercial customers will appreciate large warehouse-sized units, free package acceptance, a convenient customer service center, as well as shelving rentals to accommodate inventory and business file storage. Adding these 3 B.C. facilities brings Sentinel Self Storage to 22 locations all across Canada. For national clients, this acquisition rounds out their nation-wide coverage. Karen Bodoano, Operations Manager of Sentinel Self Storage, comments, “We were in the B.C. market from 1990 to 2000 and are really excited to be back on the west coast. Apex represents a great investment. Their established presence and success in the market gives us a head start on the lower mainland.” With 22 locations across the country, Sentinel Self Storage is the largest Canadian-owned and operated mini storage facility in Canada. Founded in 1975, Sentinel has listened to the needs of their customers and built their business on integrity and professionalism. (via MARKET WIRE)]]>
