I am VERY disappointed! I had been storing multiple important family documents in these units such as old family photos and when I recently came to check on them the unit was covert in rat droppings and some of the documents were partially destroyed! This is ridiculous and unacceptable! They cant keep their units clean and they try to increase the price as well! Awful! ... Read more

AVOID THIS UNIT AT ALL COSTS. Public storage will entice you with a discounted rate, but after 3 months they will try to DOUBLE the price. They absolutely refuse to negotiate, and the only way to keep a reasonable affordable unit is to rent a new one at the discounted rate every 6 months, requiring you to move everything you own again. Additionally, the units are infested with rats and cockroaches, other reviews by other individuals can also attest to this. Our belongings are frequently damaged or destroyed by rats, cockroaches, or the melting roof insulation. When contacting public storage to address these concerns, the refuse to negotiate price or investigate our complaints. ... Read more

Customer service lured me in back in March with an end of the month “discount” for $80/Month. Assured me that was locked in and wouldn’t go up.. only 3 months in and I get an email that I’ll be paying almost $130 month, starting next month. Classic bait and switch. The onsite manager was very sweet and helpful though.. can’t remember her name at the moment. ... Read more

Jeffrey C. - 23 December 2024
Do not trust your valuables to the Public Storage on 56th St! Everything in my entire unit was destroyed by rat infestation, termites, and black mold. They have one job: to store your things and they woefully fail at that. When I told the person at the front desk that my unit was infested, she didn't even look up from what she was doing and said she'd file an incident report which tells me this happens all the time. If you want to waste your money in rent (that they increased on the regular) and have all your possessions destroyed, by all means, give Public Storage on 56th St your business. ... Read more

These amenities include Climate-Controlled, Indoor, Drive-Up Access, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Contactless Renting, Security Camera, Gate, Parking, Credit Cards Accepted, First Floor Access, Online Payment and RV Storage. 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 - 6940 North 56th Street can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 25 to 300 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 - 6940 North 56th Street come at a variety of prices, starting from $35 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $278 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!
