After pick-up, an electronic pick-up ticket/invoice is sent to the billing email. Carefully review the inventory ticket, including pictures and descriptions of all items collected, and report any inconsistencies to USS immediately. If any discrepancies are not promptly reported to USS within 24 hours, we will be unable to address and resolve the issue.
The storage fees will then be automatically charged to the card you used during registration immediately after we have collected your items. The cost of storage depends on the number of items you decide to store. In the event that your card is unable to process the payment, we will send you a text and email with a payment link.
