Legal Question in Consumer Law in California

What is the Storage companies responsibility when it comes to their customers stored property?

CALIFORNIA

I had a 10 by 40 foot storage unit rented for 6 months while I was in transit. When I went to start moving the contents I had stored there, the lock I installed was gone and another lock was now there. After the manager cut this stangers lock off. The entire contents, a 6 bedroom home of items, was completely gone. We concluded the theft had to take place 3-4 months prior since the door was still painted shut from when the owners painted the property. Later we found out this section didn�t have cameras and the gates only close during late night hours. We don�t know if it was the day laborers I used to move, dishonest property owners or a random act. Who can I go after to get my items replaced?

I would think your contract outlines liability, but I suspect that you are responsible for the loss. Maybe your insurance covers this?
