I rented out a unit here for a day before realizing I had way too many items for it. Ian was very friendly and responsive to my request to cancel and even assisted me with comparing prices with other locations. Unit was clean and site was clean, I'll be back if need be! Thanks so much Ian!

I haven't moved in yet so this review is only on the staff who have helped me get setup. They were so kind and welcoming. Were very open and genuine with all of my questions. I was struggling with the online reservations for an hour, until I just went in and they set me up in minutes. The people working here give me confidence in my choice to move over to Public Storage before I even put my lock on the door
