Free Lock at Move-In: Simple Security at Our Iowa Facilities

Moving into a storage unit shouldn't require a shopping trip for supplies before you can secure your belongings. Both Linden Storage in Indianola and Broadway Storage in Des Moines provide every new customer with a free lock at move-in, making your first day simple, convenient, and secure—no extra errands, no additional costs.


Why a Free Lock Matters

Immediate Security: Your belongings need protection from the moment you move in. Our complimentary locks mean you can secure your unit immediately without leaving your belongings vulnerable while you hunt for a padlock at a hardware store.

The Right Lock for the Job: Not all locks are created equal. Storage units require specific lock types that provide proper security. We provide quality locks designed specifically for storage unit use—not cheap padlocks that fail when you need them most.

One Less Thing to Worry About: Moving is stressful enough without adding "buy a storage lock" to your to-do list. Our free lock eliminates one more errand from your moving day, letting you focus on actually getting your belongings moved and settled.

Cost Savings: Quality storage locks cost $15-$30 at retail. Our complimentary lock puts that money back in your pocket—savings you can use for packing supplies, moving help, or just keeping in your wallet.


Getting Your Free Lock

Receiving your free lock is simple at both our Indianola and Des Moines locations. When you complete your rental and arrive for move-in, our team provides your complimentary lock immediately. You'll receive clear instructions on how to use it properly to secure your unit.

If you prefer using your own lock, that's perfectly fine too. Many customers choose disc locks for maximum security, or bring locks matching their other storage units. The free lock is available if you want it—no pressure, no requirements.


Complete Security at Both Locations

Our free lock program is just one part of our comprehensive security. We also provide 24-hour security cameras monitoring both facilities continuously, gated entry with personalized keypad codes ensuring only authorized tenants access the properties, on-site management providing professional oversight, and bright LED exterior lighting eliminating dark corners and ensuring visibility.

These layered security features work together to protect your belongings whether you're storing in Indianola or Des Moines.


More Move-In Conveniences

Beyond free locks, both facilities provide carts and dollies available on-site for easy loading and unloading, drive-up access to many units for convenient vehicle access, online bill pay for hassle-free account management, and flexible month-to-month rentals without long-term commitments.
