Better Business Bureau Recognizes Houston Storage Company Proguard Self Storage at 2011 Awards for Excellence as Winner of Distinction

Houston, TX, May 12, 2011 --(PR.com)-- The Better Business Bureau Education Foundation selected Proguard Self Storage as a Winner of Distinction and a finalist for the 2011 BBB Awards for Excellence. The Houston public storage provider, along with dozens of other businesses, was honored at the awards ceremony at the Houston, TX InterContinental Hotel on May 4.

"We're thrilled that the Better Business Bureau has recognized us at this year's Awards for Excellence ceremony. At Proguard Storage, we work hard to live by our slogan -- ‘Quality Storage Priced Right' -- and foster a comfortable, convenient self storage environment featuring exemplary customer service and competitive pricing," said Blenda Stapleton, a Proguard Self Storage Houston manager.

According to the BBB website, the businesses chosen were picked based on “a superior commitment to ethics, overall excellence, and quality in the workplace," characteristics Proguard Self Storage embodies as a company. Proguard offers a number of features designed to make the use of the company's storage units as convenient and pleasant as possible. There are moving and packing supplies available for sale at every Houston storage location, allowing for people to safely store their belongings in the event they don't have boxes or bubble wrap on hand. Freight deliveries are also accepted at Proguard Self Storage, so customers who need to store something large but can't personally bring it to one of Proguard's Houston public storage locations can still take advantage of their storage units.

The website features a space calculator, to help potential customers determine what size storage unit they'll need, as well as online account management, through which clients can view their balances, pay their bills, and update their accounts. People can also make first-come, first-serve reservations for Houston self storage units. Proguard's website also has a section devoted to storage and moving tips — such as removing furniture legs and wrapping them with furniture pads, or keeping refrigerator doors slightly ajar — for customers looking for extra help.

Proguard also provides a number of climate controlled storage units, all available in a multitude of sizes, and the Bear Creek location offers enclosed boat and RV storage. Climate control storage is ideal for preserving leather and wooden furniture, photographs and books, clothing, computer equipment, and other belongings during hot Houston summers.

“Our goal is to be as client-friendly as possible. We tried to think of every conceivable convenience we could offer, so when people think to themselves, ‘I could really use this right now' or ‘I wish that...,' we have a solution ready and waiting," said Stapleton.

Proguard Self Storage is currently celebrating its 20th year in business. For more information on the Texas storage company, visit www.ProguardStorage.com.
