Lewis Clark Management Services

First off, Lewis-Clark Property Management deserves less than one star, but 0 or negative ratings are not available.



My wife and I decided to rent a storage unit for our excess items and found a nice, well maintained unit near our home. Within 3 months, Lewis-Clark Property Management purchased the storage units and the place has gone to Hell. Not only have the property or units not been maintained, they increased the monthly rate the second they took over. On top of that, these greedy clowns locked us out of our unit and sent us a threatening letter claiming we had not paid and that our stuff would be seized on June 28th (the only letter showed up on the 25th, a Friday, and no one is EVER in their office except when they expect money). The main problem is the fact that we were paid up until August and had the receipt and other paperwork to back it up, but LCPM still claimed we owed them money and refused to remove their lock. They could not show that we were in arrears, let alone even slightly late, yet, again, they refused to unlock it. It took a ton of calls and the threat of legal action to get these rude, inconsiderate scavengers to allow us back into our fully paid storage unit.



Since then (2 years ago), they have done little to no maintenance or basic upkeep of the facility or the property. There are weeds everywhere, the seals on the door fail to keep water out, and there is a large hole in the ground in front of our unit that they refuse to fix. Our youngest stepped into the hole, which was caused by runoff from a broken gutter and was hidden by weeds they failed to remove, and wrenched her knee and ankle. We complained, yet nothing was done. With LCPM, nothing is EVER done.



The rapid decline of this storage facility is indicative of LCPM and their do-nothing except collect money business model. They just wash or paint something and tell you it is new, but you can't pour maple syrup on a turd and call it a pancake. Their rudeness and apparent disdain for all but prospective customers (or marks, as LCPM see them) is just another reason to avoid these clowns. We would have already switched to a different storage facility, obviously not owned by these slum lords, but I am unable to move my things due to physical disability (though I have finally rounded up adequate help and will be out of that rat's nest when contract ends in two months).



Word to the wise...avoid Lewis-Clark Property Management at all costs. You WILL be treated poorly (more like rudely and with contempt), you WILL receive little or no maintenance or upkeep on the property you rent (though they will fix little things or throw paint on something to attract a new sucker), you WILL be charged for their screwups, You WILL pay more in the long run, and you WILL be frustrated with LCPM and disappointed that you did not follow the advice given to you by previous victims of this bottom-feeding outfit.
