Warehouses near La Mesa, CA

“This place is wonderful. They are old-fashioned, which i prefer for many reasons. It is family- owned and I would much rather give my money to that kind of business rather than some big corporation. The manager and her daughter, who work in the office, are very friendly. The facility is clean, and safe. They have cameras and someone who sleeps on the property at night for extra security. I adore this business and the people who work there, and I am so happy I found them. I will gladly give them my business, rather than take it anywhere else.”

“Just as good as any other Costco.

However the parking layout is one of the worst I have ever seen due to the long skinny shape of the site. Additionally the right turn in only driveway blocks traffic on Fletcher Parkway and the pedestrian crossing on the main driveway causes congestion. Unfortunately I don't think there is anything to do to solve it.”

“Always a good place to get large quantities for a decent price.

Can be busy at times. So, plan your time there.
Membership is required, but you can buy alcohol without membership.”

“It was great, I found all the produce in large quantities at a very good price compared to getting it from my usual grocery store. I am making a large dish for a party so well worth beating the traffic to get there but next time I'll try the morning.”

“Regarding Costco Mission Valley California Warehouse # 488
I have the privelege of being both a Costco loyal member, and a Vendor having served as Brand Ambassador for Honey Smoked Fish Company (HSFC) in Costco warehouses around the nation. I feel that I am very qualifed to give warehouse # 488 a 5☆ rating, 6 ☆s if that was possible.
I recently worked in this warehouse for 3 days from before opening, until after closing. The Costco & CDS (Sample Sales Advisors) deserve impeccable praise for their hard work and dedication, no doubt. Before the doors open through the night, until opening, they work feverishly to make sure that the store is spotless and very accommodating for its members, some 5000 - 6000+ a day. This is not an easy job. Let's be honest, the majority of members are kind. But some (a few) and their kids can be quite inconsiderate. Nonetheless, this store's personnel work diligently on forklifts (women included) with blooms, mops, superior merchandising, and high quality food-safe samples to please all members.
Members are given the benefit of the doubt on returns and alleged member services issues, even when it appears some may not deserve it.
When the store is closed, they play their music genre of choice and work in harmony to please their members. Having visited and worked in many Costco locations, I find this team most outstanding. They do this leaving with aching backs, feet, and tired, but glady return to repeat this rigorous circle the next day.
Warehouse # 488 deserves 6 ☆'s for its team's dedication to satisfying its members, even with current cooler repairs, renovation, and re- merchandising putting additional stress on everyone.
Give them 'their flowers' they deserve it.
Notable personnel to mention
• The CDS team, led by Event Manager Javier and assisted by Manager Jay, CDS Sales Advisors, Supervisors, and Breakers for their exceptional performance: Gabriele, Ana, Marianna, Leiko, Rosemary, Sophia, Juana, Blanca, Carrie, Eman, and anyone I may have overlooked.
• The warehouse Management Team, Jessie, Adam, Brian, Gary, and Zack
• The receiving team and floor staff Nathan, David, and others.
HSFC sold out most of its products at warehouse # 488, and members were excited to be there.
That's all because of warehouse # 488's superior team.”

“I went to the Costco to return a set of chairs that I purchased online. The chairs were so large that they had to be placed on the top of my forerunner. I had no idea how it was gonna take the chairs down when I got there. I got double lucky. A parking spot opened up right adjacent to where the carts were located. There was a flat cart that was large enough for me to be able to put the chairs onto it. The last great thing was that there was a shopping cart attendant at the location where I parked and was willing to help me get it off my car. I can’t tell you how thankful I was with my experience. The return process was very easy and I did not need to have my receipt present.

The one other thing that was really nice was that the line was very quick moving and it didn’t take very long to get my return completed

Tsegai was the best help I could have asked for!”

“What a great experience! I called to ask about specials on a Queen box spring. Gene spoke from Florida! Set me up wonderfully! Answered all my concerns, got a great deal! Picked box up from warehouse 8 minutes away! Assembly was so simple, took 30 minutes! Gene sold me a clearance metal frame made in France for less than half the price! My family shook their heads from disbelief! Got the best sleep ever!! Ty Mattress Firm! Second time I've purchased here, will keep coming!!”

“Full CASH refund? Say WHATT?? Saved me some time and stress when I needed to return a large purchase that turned out to not be quite the right fit for the job. Not their fault at all, but they still didn’t fuss when I asked for my refund in cash since I needed to use it that same day, even tho I paid with a debit card. I won’t soon forget it!”

“On dock crew is fast but according to strict appointment. They are too busy but fast unloading. Tight facility no overnight parking. You will be lucky if you got street parking.”
