About

Rocket Self Storage operates a temperature-controlled facility on 70th Street in College Area, serving San Diego's storage market from a location 1.7 miles south of SDSU in the 92115 ZIP. The facility — established in 2012 and managed by Copper Storage Management — offers unit sizes ranging from 5-by-5-foot closet-equivalent spaces to full drive-up units, with monthly rates running from $99 for the smallest configurations to $349 for the largest. Semester-transition demand from SDSU students drives seasonal peaks, and the facility's 24-hour kiosk system allows contactless unit selection, move-in, and payment processing without staffed-office hours. Tenants needing packing and transportation assistance coordinate with San Diego Moving and Packing Services, which handles box delivery, loading labor, and truck transport to and from the 70th Street facility. The property sits at the corner of 70th Street and Amherst, one block south of El Cajon Boulevard and directly accessible from the Interstate 8 on-ramp — a position that draws tenants from College Area, Rolando, the La Mesa border, and the Lake Murray residential corridor. Climate-controlled units maintain stable temperature and humidity for electronics, documents, and moisture-sensitive inventory that standard units expose to San Diego's inland heat fluctuations. Pest management in and around the storage compound coordinates with Harbor Pest Control in Grantville for perimeter treatment and rodent exclusion on the multi-building site. Video surveillance, gated access, and individual unit alarms provide the three-layer security system that covers the full storage compound.
