Public Storage Reviews Reviews Summary

Public Storage's reputation is marred by significant customer dissatisfaction, primarily due to steep and frequent price increases, inadequate customer service, and poor management responsiveness. Many customers report feeling neglected, with unresolved issues regarding billing and unit security leading to frustration. While some locations receive praise for their cleanliness and helpful staff, these positive experiences appear inconsistent. Overall, the feedback suggests a troubling trend of unprofessional practices and a lack of accountability, prompting customers to caution others about their experiences and consider alternative storage options.

Public storage raised their prices 4 months after I moved in. That was
The sole reason I moved out, not to allow Public Storage to take
Advantage of my patronage, otherwise they would have had me for at least
Another 6 months. My second BIG gripe is the countless times I've
Arrived to find the employees are "out to lunch" or simply not available
Because they are off cleaning the premises. This means you don't have
Access to carts to move things in or out. Do you -Public Storage-
Seriously expect your customers to wait around or come back in 30-40
Minutes? This is a random experience too... it's not like they close
Down from 12-12:30... it's luck of the draw... happened to me 3-4X.
Lastly, being hit with the surprise of "adding required insurance,"
Which was not in the advertised price was the first dishonest practice I
Experienced with Public Storage and I should have walked out the door
Then and there. Never again, I despise this company.

Great customer service
January 16, 2019

I went to the store on 115th and Huron and was greeted with a smile. Jess was very help full and friendly she was very injoyable if that is a word. Now i did not rent a unit due to price, but she tried to help the best she could. Public storage let me tell you, you have a gem in your hands. Just wanted to give her a shout out. Five star for Customer service

Visitproperty ******* in NJ. The service sold me! Brittany M was amazing, I went in an extra day earlier and she was quick to help me, show me the space and explain everything to me. I was in a rush being a single mother and she got me in and out. The space was just right and near the door since I was doing all the lifting. The facility services, needs work but hey it serves the purpose

Good Customer Service
January 14, 2019

My husband and I visited property number ******* today (1/Great/2019) to rent a storage unit. This is a new property in Cypress, Texas. Eugenea was our customer service representative. She was very helpful, showed us a unit we were interested in, explained the whole process of renting a unit. Answered any questions we had. We rented a 10 x 10 unit.

So, our overall experience was wonderful. Great Customer Service, which is rare now a days.

As a new resident of Atlanta GA; I'm relieved that I have a safe clean place to store my things. Brittany was extremely knowledgeable and pleasent. She explained every aspect of renting the unit to me, including showing it to me before I made the final decision. Highly recommend you start your 2019 with Public Storage; you'll be glad you did!
