Anyone have experience with WineBank in Menlo Park for storage? I’m looking for somewhere that would be cost-effective for storing a very small quantity of wine (only ~5 cases worth), and WineBank appears to be one of the few local places offering very small sizes for shelf lockers. (K&L’s RWC location does too, I’m told, but has a waiting list that’s too long for what I need.) Any ideas?
I have used Winebank for over 2 years and I’m extremely pleased with their “manned” service and facility. I went with them because of the K&L waitlist, the location and reviews. The only grumble is that they are not open on Monday but they have good hours every other day. They have everything you would expect; unique access codes, carts, ability to receive shipments (I had 2 pallets shipped!), ability to buy and sell wine, options for lable printing with links to CellarTracker, etc.
There are not that cheap but I feel that they are worth the money given their location in the peninsula (and close to 101 too!). Would definitely recommend them.
Actually you are correct, they are open 7 days a week. Not sure where I got the Monday closing from… and I was waiting until Tuesday to deposit the weekend haul…
It’s quite possible. I need the storage for the current set of cases ASAP because I’m going to be out of the country for a few months. Other than location, one of the things I liked about WineBank (based on web research alone) is that it has very small lockers that I could start with, and then upgrade to larger space as I need it. I’m glad to hear people have had good experiences with it. Thanks much for your replies.
I think it was a year or so ago they started being open on Mondays. (That was the one drawback, as a [former] restaurant person, Monday is chore day.) Anyway, very happy with them.
