Read some helpful reviews of Public Storage at 1900 El Camino Real, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

My review is to serve as a “buyer beware”. Store for only a short term because rent hikes are large and don’t come on an annual basis but come on a “supply and demand” timeline which can vary. Store knowing your items will smell like formaldehyde. Store knowing you may find a rodent(s) in your unit. Move out on the last day of the month to max time in the unit but to avoid paying for a full month following move out. Read the small print on the contract to confirm terms. Do not rely on the website for proper policy verbiage about your rental. More details in the following: Stats: I rented a 10x15 on the ground floor at a starting rate of $281 in June 2023. I stored my art supplies and art pieces in the unit. The unit was to be used temporarily until I got my art studio. I knew I’d be in the unit for between 12-18 months. Pros: * Set up of getting the unit was fast and easy. * The Public Storage rep at the site is polite. * The Public Storage app makes paying simple and has a gate remote feature which makes access convenient. Cons: * The building has a strong formaldehyde odor which is an indicator of a rodent problem. * The formaldehyde odor makes your unit along with the items in your unit smell. * Yes, I found a dead mouse in my unit. Yes, I found mouse poop. RIP little one. * Rent increase came in December 2023 at $357. * Rent ended in September 2024 at $448. * Rent rate hikes are astronomical. * I arranged for move out on September 1, 2024. Because of my oversight of the contract stating that the full month’s rent must be paid regardless of timing of ending the contract, I have to pay for a month at the facility for an empty unused unit. Public Storage offers no pro-rated rent and is not the least bit flexible on this policy. This caveat of a full month’s payment regardless of timing of contract termination, is ONLY in the contract. It is NOT in their move out process verbiage on their website/app in the FAQs or blog sections. Disclaimer: My colleague who came to my storage unit to pick up some items from me, works in pest control. They were the one to confirm my building odor concerns. This fact was revealed to me in early August of 2024. ... Read more

I have rented from a few storages over the years, but I must say by far this one was the best of all. The facility is clean and is easily accessible.

I had a great experience working with Dominique when I first moved in my belongings and also when I just recently moved all of my stuff out. Dominique was always very friendly, extremely professional, and she was prompt in getting back to me to answer all of my questions. I would recommend using this Public Storage facility given Dominique's stellar performance! ... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions

There is a wide array of amenities available for the storage units that Public Storage - 1900 El Camino Real has to offer. These amenities include Indoor, Drive-Up Access, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Contactless Renting, Security Camera, Gate, Credit Cards Accepted, Elevators, First Floor Access, Multi-Level Storage and Online Payment. Most of these amenities can prove to be very useful depending on what you need to store. For example, climate-controlled units can come in handy for keeping sensitive items, drive-up access can make your loading and unloading process easier, and extra security measures will ensure your items are kept safe at all times.

The storage units offered by Public Storage - 1900 El Camino Real can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 25 to 250 square feet. You can go for smaller units if you don't have a lot of items to store, while choosing a larger space is recommended in case you need to store a lot of furniture, bigger items or even vehicles.

The unit size that you should choose obviously depends on how much stuff you need to store. On the one hand, you should think of smaller units (5'x5' or 5'x10') as closets – they can be used to store chairs, lamps, moving boxes and sports equipment, along with smaller pieces of furniture, books and documents.

On the other hand, the 10'x10' and 10'x15' spaces are good for storing larger items of furniture, bicycles and a larger number of possessions. If you need even more space, then 10'x20' and 10'x30' units can easily accommodate the contents of an entire 3- or 4-bedroom house.

Storage units offered by Public Storage - 1900 El Camino Real come at a variety of prices, starting from $103 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $690 a month.

We know that when it comes to self storage, there is nothing more important than quickness and accessibility. Drive-up access is an extremely convenient amenity, as you can park your vehicle right next to your unit, making it significantly easier to load and unload the items you will use storage for. However, drive-up storage units tend to be outdoors, so you might consider indoor storage spaces with climate control if you're looking to keep temperature-sensitive items in peak condition.

Yes, you might, depending on what you need to put in storage. Climate-controlled spaces keep temperatures and humidity levels consistent all the time, which means they are perfect for storing sensitive items. Seeing that a whole host of things can be damaged by varying temperatures and excessive moisture, many people choose to rent climate-controlled units for personal items such as documents, photographs, paintings, collectibles, electronics, wooden furniture, antiques and even vehicles. If you're looking to store such items that are valuable to you, consider renting a climate-controlled unit!
