June 2010 What’s Quacken

Hello again folks:

Another month has come and gone. Can you believe it’s June already? The calendar says June, the weather says March. Anyway, seems that this old Quacker didn’t even get turned all the way around before May was gone! And, I thought that Mallards could fly at a pretty good clip.

 Things here at Mallard Mini Storage are all just:”DUCKEY” I have been able to talk to, and see a lot of our GREAT tenants throughout the winter. Although many of our faithful tenants are out of the area, they know their stuff is safe and secure, and they don’t even have to leave the comfort of home to pay the storage rent. They can do it on the internet at MALLARDMINISTORAGE.COM, by phone, by mail, or in person. We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, debit cards, and of course, good old Green cash! We ducks especially like the color green. After all, some of our feathers are green, and Frogs also are green (Yummy) my favorite snack You can even set up your account for payments to be automatically made each month, or we can set it up for you, just give us a call (530)846-6864. We know that life can be a hassle, so we try to make things as easy as we can for our tenants. Regular access hours to your unit are seven days a week from 7 to 7; even longer hours can be setup for you with special arrangements.

Gridley now looks brand new and shinny with its new face lift. Highway 99 has new traffic lights, crosswalks, etc. Big Archway that leads to down town and to Grey Lodge, where you can feast your eyes upon A lot of BEAUTIFUL MALLARDS. Of course there is a large variety of other wild life also.Come on, check Gridley out. When you fall in-love with it, and decide this is where you want to be, don’t forget to call or come on by Mallard Mini Storage and let us watch your stuff till you get all settled in.

It’s been my pleasure quackin at you. Until next time: DON’T QUACK UP…PACK UP!

may 2010 What’s Quacken

Here it is, May already. April was kind of wet and cold. We Ducks (Mallards) love wet and our beautiful feathers keep us nice and warm. However, Humans need shelter from these things, especially wet. Mallard Mini Storage has the solution just waiting for you to utilize. Why not dedicate one of our units for all your summer things, BBQ, Umbrellas, tables, Ice chest, etc? With summer and nice weather quickly approaching, you can bring all your summer stuff here, freeing up some precious garage/spare room space. With your stuff stored here, when that week-end (WOOPIE!) Finally gets here, just hop into the car, stop by Mallard, grab what you need and hurry on down to the Lake, Picnic area, etc.Just think, after your picnic, BBQ, get-together, your tired, you’re thinking about Monday morning, going back to work, etc. The stress is starting to build then, a smile spreads across your face as you suddenly remember, “Hey, I won’t have to worry about stuffing all this stuff back into my garage, I can just drop it off at Mallard Mini Storage on the way home!” With our convenient hours, 7 to 7…7 days a week, even longer (with just a phone call) you can utilize your rented unit almost as if it is in your back yard. Best of all, you now have all that extra space at home, but remember, space has a way of disappearing, and you still have room in your unit at Mallard Mini Storage, or if needed, we can transfer your rental agreement to a larger unit. There is absolutely no charge for this service, and any rents paid on the present unit would be transferred to the new one. You would not lose any money. All you would need to do is transfer your stuff.

As always, Thanks for your friendship and your business. I’ll be quackin at you again soon

Apil 2010 What's Quacken

Hello again from your old friend L.J. Quacker.

Wow! April already! Time flies almost as fast as us ducks, especially Mallards. We are known for speed and MOVING abilities. I just had to throw a little pun in there. I tried to find the origin of APRIL FOOLS, It seems that there are so many theories of how the tradition began that it remains as much of a mysteryto us, as it was back 300 years or so ago. In any case it’s a good excuse to pull jokes on your friends

I have a Mallard cousin back in the Midwest, whom, I think was more foolish than he was a fool. In the spring of the year all that snow would melt and form little ponds that would freeze over at night. I can still see my cousin coming in fast and low, hitting the ice and skidding across the pond, right into a bush. I tell you I laughed (quacked) so loud, that the ice started to arrival signals the beginning of GOOD OLD SPRING and with spring comes every housewife’s seeming, enquack (crack!).joyable anticipation of Spring House Cleaning. Hey ladies, and you gentlemen too! Remember, Mallard Mini Storage is here for you. Why not come on in, secure a safe place for the things you won’t need right now, and at the same time, make room available for the things you plan on obtaining this summer? If you have a college student, or are one, Mallard has 5X10 units, as well as larger ones available that are perfect for storing school things until you need access to them again. Give us a call 846-6864, or come on by 1796 Highway 99in good old Gridley (Duck Country). Don't forget to stop by, say hello & pick-up a free gift. We are just down the street from Les Schwab Tire, on the east side of the highway.

Mar 2010 What's Quacken

Hello again…Well, it is starting to look a lot like spring here in Gridley. The Trees are starting to bud; some are even in full bloom. This nice weather and nature coming awake makes this old Mallard want to start looking for a good place to make my nest and to store all my precious stuff. We here at Mallard Mini Storage have a nest ready and waiting for you. What do you think? Is it time to store your winter things, like Rain Gear, cold weather clothing, Etc? After all, you gotta have room to keep that Barbeque and all that nice lawn furniture until week ends come along, WOOPIE! Don’t you just love week-ends and barbequing? So, why not take all that stuff you won’t need right away down to Mallard Mini Storage? We will watch and protect it for you. If you do need it, you have access to your storage unit 7 to 7---7 days. If some day you may need access to your unit later then these hours because you have to work late, or for whatever reason, just give the office a call before 5pm, (that’s when us ducks retire) and we will certainly accommodate your request. We are here to serve you. It’s ok for a duck to serve people, but not for people to serve ducks. You should only serve turkeys. Just a little duck humor.

Remember, stop by, say hello when you are in the Great Gridley duck area!

Take care, have a great spring. I’ll be quacking at you again soon!
