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

    Valerie was a delight to conduct business with. As she is always very personable and extremely helpful every time I or my family has been in contact with her. She’s answered any and all questions with not only precise details but also with prompt timing. Each time I’ve had Valerie as your companies customer service representative she has been poised and polished, as she not has the brains for her job but the beauty as well. Her appearance doesn’t simply meet the criteria for a public position it clearly surpasses it. If I was asked my recommendation for Public Storage based solely on my interaction with Valerie I would give it my highest. I would consider her as your most valuable employee and a crucial assist to your company. ... Read more

    Angela was a great help to me. She called to let me know that my unit was locked in an open position. She stayed by my side and helped me to make sure my unit was locked properly. All of my belongings were right where I left them. Thank you Angela for your help! ... Read more

    Have had the unit for approx a year, they have raised the rent three times. They are advertising the same size unit for 79.00. They charge me 150.00 plus the mandatory 15.00 insurance and 11.50 in tax. So I am now paying 176.50 for what less than a year ago was 96.00. Hopefully we can get our stuff out before this next hike ... Read more

    Desiree was extremely patient with me & understanding. Being that I recently suffered a stroke. Had car problems and Drs appointments. So she was kind enough to ask her higher ups to grant me a extension. I wish the world had more people like her that puts customers first. She made me feel proud to do business with public storage. I'm not only asking for her to get a raise. I am now promoting public storage to everyone I know on Facebook and Instagram and my friends and family. Great customer service seems to be a lost art. I am grateful she works for public storage. Sincerely, Mr. Leandrews Bryant. ... Read more
