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.

Organized
June 4, 2017

I recently visited the property in Fremont, and I had a pleasurable time. The staff was very helpful and the property was well kept. I left feeling that Public Storage would be my best choice for my storage needs.

I would like to throw some 'shine' on Debbie at the 2715 Realty Drive, Carrollton Texas location. Debbie displayed a White Glove service style to me, she was kind and very pleasant. She was very accommodating and was able to help me with the rope tie I needed. Thank you Debbie for great service on today!

I had a grumpy delivery guy dropping off a large item and Mike smoothed things out for me in a very short time.

Sara at store #*******. Northgate, hit a home run. She made it happen for me. Found a good location, when I needed it the most. Sara called Marguerite at store # or property *******. Marguerite and Staff made it possible for me to move in fast. A triple play. What a team. I have been in and out of publicStorage for years. This the first time, I have written a review. I hope I got all the names correct. Dan A133.

There are so many good decent storage facility out there that won't screw you over. I rented a unit for 32 days and they charged me two months rent it's absurd you would think they would just charge for two days but not them don't trust them it's not worth it.

Do not use them!
April 11, 2017

DONT YOU EVER USE THIS COMPANY. YOU WILL BE SO SORRY, THAT ONE DOLLAR FIST MONTH "BS", IS NOTHING, ANDD THOSE CHEAP MONTHLY RATES TO START WITH. WELL IN NO TIME AT ALL, YOUR RENT IS DOUBLED, OR EVEN MORE A MONTH FROM THEM CONSTANTLY RAISING IT EVERY 3 TO 5 MONTHS... COMPANY IS CROOKED, LIERS, CHEATS. TELL YOU, YOU CANT USE THE ELECTRIC OR WORK OUT OF YOUR UNIT, BUT EVERYONE ELSE WAS AND CAN DO. MANAGERS EVEN DROVE BY OTHERS DOING IT, OR WALKED BY THEM, SAID NOTHING, BUT MY GOD WE USE IT, THEY RUN DOWN THERE YOU CANT DO THAT... THEY KNEW WHEN I MOVED IN I HAD TO, AND THE MANAGER AT THAT TIME WAS FINE OK WITH IT. YOU USE THIS PLACE, YOU WILL BE SO SORRY, RUDE PEOPLE AND THEY WILL COST YOU BIG TIME... DONT FALL FOR THERE BS...

I had the pleasure of speaking with Michelle Middleton in reguards to my inquiries about storage. Seeing how this is my first time considering storage. Michelle made me very comfortable about the safety of my belongings and the efficiency of the company. Every question I asked, she handled with such care and understanding, considering my concerns. I recommend every company to get them a Michelle Middleton! Great Great Great service!

We got out the stuff delivered but delivery was very poor. Only one person came for the delivery it was taking ages for him to get the stuffs moved into the apartment.We had move some stuffs to our apartment on our own.The only person came for delivery did not have sufficient tools to assemble tables and mattress bed stand. Also i had to pay 25 $ more at the time of delivery which is not mentioned in the bill at all. Few damaged items too.

Too costly as well, Initial quote was 2300$, So that i wont move to other movers and packers, The day before the pick up and gave another estimate to 4000$ and at the time of pick up ended up with 4600$
