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.

I admit I had trepidation going in to rent a space but any concerns or worries evaporated when LINDA at the Public Storage location in Sunland, CA helped me.
Calm and friendly, she explained every facet of the process. I never felt rushed or that she was anything but patient and helpful.
Don't pick the closest place... pick the LINDA place. A+ all the way!
I was in need of a storage unit--Kelly went above to acomadate me. I had actually rented a storage unit Kelly was so helpful. She took the time to show me another size which I ended up with very greatfuly. Vert personable
I wouldn't mind purchasing or storing any items at this location and the receptionist Karen was considerate and caring check it out ******* Sharon amity road Charlotte nc
First Star Wars start by saying Public Storage offers a dollar movie in first month which is misleading by time you finish paying you end up paying almost one month payment because you pay a $24 administrative fee then the $1 which total $25 then they add on the insurance which is $11 then there's the lock fee of $19.95 and then the taxes are added on by the time that total $#*! up you will be paying almost one month payment and also you advise them of what it is you are storing then they suggest the sides unit you would need to hold your items which you will be storing but when you started to put your items into the unit space it's not enough room I think that they should be more knowledgeable of the space unit but they seem not to be that and knowledgeable of the space in the units I have rent space unit before and it was able to hold the items a witch I was storing and everything fit but here at Public Storage everything did not fit in the space they gave me so they are not very knowledgeable of the spaces there are renting out I would not be recommending public storage 2 anyone because they are misleading with that dollar move in first month and not knowledgeable other space of each unit dependent on customers items
The two ladies at this location were so helpful. Robin answered all my questions with a smile. Once I decided on the size I needed she had me out in no time. Thanks ladies for making this a smooth process.
Thank you, Megan, of the Willoughby facility in Hollywood. I came in with several problems. You got right on them and didn't stop until each was resolved. You treated me with respect, understanding and a great sense of humor, and even laughed at my little jokes. I have been a customer at this facility for years. I'd never had a bad experience with staff, but you really shine the klieg on property management/customer service. You made all the difference to me on a particularly sad day in this troubling and troubled world.
This review is regarding a employee by the name of Kira, property number *******. ******* hwy 92, Woodstock, Ga *******.
Kira is professional, friendly, knows her job and is willing to help with whatever your needs are. She goes above and beyond to help her customers. I would recommend her services to anyone interested in renting at this location.
Millie at Public Storage at ******* Oxnard St. Van Nuys CA was so great to work with. She bent over backwards to help me. Public Storage is lucky to have such a caring and wonderful person working for them. The facility was clean and safe. Highly recommend them. Ask for Millie!

Keep doing business because of their great
There are hundreds of storage unit businesses.
If you value your time and money... go to any one of them other than PUBLIC STORAGE! Your money in their hands is all that matters. Look up the class action suite against them & their deplorable practices, Damn shame, don't say I didn't warn you
IF I COULD GIVE A TEN I WOULD MISTY IS ALWAYS VERY SWEET WHEN SHE CALLS AND IF I HAVE ANY QUESTIONS SHE MAKES SURE I UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING BEFORE IM OFF THE LINE TAMPA 51ST STREET KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB FROM TAMEKA AND MARCUS
Hello today I went into property number ******* Orlando Florida on Orange Blossom Trail and there was these two ladies named Jennifer and yessenia was helping us get all our information correct back and forth with two or three storage units I have in there. I just wanted to take that moment and tell you guys to tell them thank you for doing a great job I usually don't do reviews because I don't have time but I really appreciate them working with us in a professional matter. Thank you
I've had the worst experience at the 351 Parker St in Springfield, Ma. Judgement was placed on me a New Yorker of being rude, in which I wasn't an told to vacate my stay by a Mike Fleming. This experience of judgement by some that live in this State has been my worst nightmare. The mgr Ivelesse passes judgement on me an lied on my character, I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone from New York. New Yorkers stay away from Public Storage, go to Uncle Bobs on Congress St. Whose staff is open an friendly to all that come across there doors.
I Rodney sims was greatly appreciated for brandy for helping me get my storage unit today. She was very knowledgeable about everything.
Classic bait & switch! Forget the $1 introductory promotion. Climate controlled is not air conditioning--it means the unit may have shade for a portion of the day. $56 a month unit is really $88 when you check in.
I'm trying to give a review for Shirley and Carol from Justice, IL. 5-digit property number is *******. They are very polite and helpful. 5 Stars for them!

I appreciated her help!

Answer: They will find a way to charge you for anything. And they will charge fees in which they will take you to collections for. They are a really greedy company
Answer: No, and they will charge you for a spec of dirt left.
Answer: Just post a review on Google Maps andwrite a review about your experience at any business
Answer: The longer you stay the more you pay period. Depends on how much value they put on a hot active size rental.
