Do not store any of your property at Staples Mill Mini Storage. They will sell anything they can get their hands on for a profit. After relocating to another state and then laid off after several months, needles to say financial devastation.

Staples Mill Storage illegally sold everything my family owned. Although we were behind two months rent we stayed in touch, and kept our address current. They decide to liquidate all of our belongings out of greed for money. These were items that were heirlooms that will NEVER be replaced.

The lowest thing you can do to any human is sell an American Flag that was on my Father's casket. He was a Veteran of the Army.I have asked the Veteran's Administration to replace the flag they have not responded. They offered us $367.00 as payment for several thousand dollars of property after it was sold at a mock auction. We have hired a lawyer in Virginia. The attorney indicates it may take months or years for any vindication.

Any offer of assistance would be greatly appreciated. They don't have the guts to tell us who has our property. We would like to try to buy it back if possible. If you have any suggestions or comments please feel free to email us. The homestead law was violated as well.

Mark,

You have cleverly changed the subject, haven't you. This may not be about the late payments at all, but about the content of their conversations and agreements, if any made. Let's hold off on the judgements until we have the facts.

This may be hard for you to understand, but certain things attach sentimental value. To express it does not indicate exploitation of those feelings, however uncomfortable you may be with that disclosure.

As for the victim, please write to Frank@ripoffreport.com and let me know when you contact the VA and who you contacted. Did you contact the Regional Office, and if so, which one?

Take Responsibility

So you admit you were behind in rent. Also I assume there was a STANDARD LEASE AGREEMENT which gave the storage company the right to AUCTION off your contents for NON-PAYMENT. So all they did was exercise their right to be paid for services rendered. You have already admitted YOU WERE WRONG cause you were behind in payments. Then you want us to feel sorry for you by playing some sympathy angle with a AMERICAN FLAG. While I personally feel for your loss, you need to take responsibilty for your actions or NON-ACTION in this case. If you had PAID them or removed your belongings cause of your inability to afford this service, none of this would have happened. SORRY, But you were wrong & you need to take responsibility.
