SECTION 2 – RELATIONSHIP TO MEMBERSHIP & SERVICE AGREEMENT

Purchasing or reserving any storage membership, vehicle space, or related service through our Site does not automatically guarantee approval or assignment of a storage space.

  • Verification of space availability and eligibility,

  • Submission of required identification and vehicle documentation (see Section 3), and

  • Execution of a separate Kartel Storage & Social Service Agreement (the “Service Agreement”).

When you submit an order, reservation, or deposit on our Site, you are making an offer to purchase. Kartel reserves the right to accept or decline any order at its sole discretion.

A valid credit card is required to reserve a requested space; however, payment processing does not guarantee approval or space assignment. Acceptance occurs only after required documentation is received, verified, and the Service Agreement is signed by both parties.

If we cannot confirm eligibility or space availability, we will notify you and void or refund any unprocessed charge as applicable.
