Read some helpful reviews of Prime Storage, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

If I could rate zero stars I would!! Stay away from Prime Storage in San Marcos if you value fair pricing and customer service. My rent increased every 4–6 months, and not by small amounts. It became obvious that once you’re moved in and your belongings are stored, they know it’s expensive and inconvenient to move somewhere else, so the price just keeps climbing. It’s a business model that feels like it’s taking advantage of loyal customers. When I reached out to management and the regional manager to see if they could work with me on the constant rate increases, I didn’t receive a single response. Being ignored completely says a lot about how they value their customers. The final straw was when I moved out just seven days after my monthly payment had been charged. I asked if they would prorate the unused portion of the month, and the answer was an immediate “absolutely not.” After paying thousands of dollars over the time I rented there—and after all the repeated rate increases—they wouldn’t refund even a portion of one month. There are many storage facilities in the area. Do yourself a favor and compare prices, ask how often they raise rates, and find a company that values customer loyalty. I wish I had done that much sooner. ... Read more

Rented out a 10x10 for two years the service was amazing and never once was I scared my stuff would get stolen. The only downside was the constant increase in price after the first year almost every 3/4 months there would be a price increase. Besides that highly recommend them. ... Read more
