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.

OMG! I WAS AT THE PUBLIC STORAGE AT 1387 NORTHSIDE AND OMAR IS TERRIFIC! HE IS SO HELPFUL ON SO MANY DIFFERENT LEVELS. THIS WAS MY SECOND TIME DEALING WITH HIM AND NOW I'M IN LOVE. IF YOU HAVE PEOPLE AT ALL YOUR LOCATIONS LIKE OMAR THEN YOU HAVE SOME REALLY HAPPY CUSTOMERS. I KNOW BECAUSE I'M ONE. THANKS DEBRA BROWN

The public storage at ******* Willow Glen Dr. Is a very classy place. Jennifer helped me and wad polite courteous and professional. I am also equally impressed how clean and nice it is. Im glad my GPS let me know we had arrived... because I would have missed it. It camouflaged with the beauty of the area, with other storages you can see the bright orange eye sore a mile a way. Thanks for the great service and keeping your establishment cool and clean. Jamie

I have been storing my stuff at Public Storage for 2 years. Since day one, Tasha has been their to help me with any questions that I might have or able to help me when I scaled down.
I understand that this is her job, however, she makes it easy for me to accomplish what I have to do, and always with a smile. I like this manner of operation for it is less stress on me. Thank you PUBLIC STORAGE and mostly Tasha.

I have had a unit for 2 yrs. I was very happy for I had a very sweet person who helped me out beyond helping. Her name is Mary. She was on US1, in Vero Beach, Fla. I just wanted to THANK YOU so very much for going beyond your call of duty.

The exchange was handled in a pleasant, business-like fashion. The manager checked other nearby facilities for vacancies so that I could intelligently choose which location was the most suitable. A very good experience

I have been with this Sunnyvale Public Storage for many years. And I can say without hesitensy, that this is one of the best run facilitys I have been with since the '70's. What makes that possible, is the people who manage this operation... namely, Pervez, and his wife Taslima. They're intelligent, and well familiarized with the business. And, flexible to help ease the transition from scaling down in the apartment arena, to less crowding in your new home. I have several size storages - which help in the organization of my business - entrepreneuring. The units help keep my apartment looking nice and spacious, with a low work profile, to provide more room when I invite friends over. I believe I have less clutter then most of the friends I know, and this gives me more elbow-room for the comfort I long for after a hard day's work - such as a nice big TV, sound system, and some of my favorite books and magazines, not to mention some of my hobby equipment for photography.
Pervez and I have developed a good friendship over the years I've been there, and he has been a very good business consultant when I look for a little advice now and then.
I can say - without a doubt - they both get five stars
In my book.

Sincerely, Doug Obujen
