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.

Dedication
May 27, 2018

On May 21,2018 I visited the store in Alsip, IL. My representative Joyce was simply the best. She was knowledgable and patient with me as I selected the right size unit for the items I will store. She made the experience pleasant. I would love to see her receive a raise for the wealth of information she knows and the overall peaceful spirit and smile she has. Kudos to you Joyce!

Rose, Made me feel comfortable, and happy I picked Public Storage to store my property. From the minute I walked in she greeted me like I was very special. She was very professional. Who ever trained her did a good job. Keep smiling Rose You made this old man happy. God Bless You. Steven M. Ortiz

I recently used your storage service and was not expecting to have such knowledgeable helpful, friendly service. Delores was the Manager that helped us. She made our stressful weekend so much easier and secure. She is a valuable "Nordstrom Customer Service" quality employee. I look forward to her service again, and i will be sending my friends and family to Public Storage #*******

This storage company is a ripoff, they offer you the space units at discount price and after 2/3 months almost double the charges and keep raising it. After few months you pay way way more than you think. Very very unfair.
Though the staff is very nice, but the company is out to rob the poor customers.

I just have to tell the world about my experience with Patricia at Store #*******. Nowadays it is so difficult to find excellent customer service just about every where you patronize; however Patricia brought it back to the way it should be. Her knowledge and professional expertise is a great asset to Public Storage. I highly recommend anyone that needs storage space in Kansas City, KS to see Patricia beautiful smile, fresh smelling office and clean units available.

I had a locker with public storage in montreal for over 2 years, paid over 4000$, great place clean, well lit, BUT, I had a string of bad luck last year or so, surgery last summer, less work as a result (i'm an independant contractor), and have been behind in my payments for months, always managed to pay just in time, they ;d lock me out every 10th of every month, last month i didn't make it (march 2018), any guesses on my grace period before cutting open my lock and going to auction? Absolutely none, not even a day... you are thieves, plain and simple, we can see now this whole arrangement is designed to produce just this result, as often as possible... then they have the low life gall to try and collect you for the money you supposedly owe them for raping you... this is straight up theft, so be careful, be wary of all the niceties and smiles and happy greetings, cause they're sharks, and they have $#*!in sharp bloody teeth... $#*!ers...

Andy was courteous and helpful. Very patient in explaining the various aspects of my rental. After completing the paperwork he took me for a walk through to show me the unit and how to secure it. He is an asset to the company and a perfect model of how a business should treat a customer
