What if I want to terminate my signed agreement early?
Plans change, they get it. If you'd like to terminate early, they require a 60-day notice minimum.

They consider the notice effective from the 1st day of the next rental period. For example, if you submit your 60 days notice on May 15th, they will count 60 days from June 1st.
