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

    Chasity and the Arsenal team have been stellar. From the time my mom passed to current date where I needed to transition to a different unit. Chasity was even able to secure a unit adjacent to my current unit, which was beyond a blessing. I travel from New England to manage this storage and they’ve just been great, but mainly the shining star has been Chastity ... Read more

    Prime storage was okay at first until my second payment was due. No, one mentioned a free month or any price. Hikes so soon...but a 100 % price hike was extremely high, but I will say the representative at prime storage was willing to work with me to lower the rate. And if you're not paying attention to your email to know in advance and have auto pay, you're just s out a luck. Again....6 months later Another price height was in the making, with another one hundred percent rate increase.That's when I decided it was time to go. I would definitely pay attention to your emails. Probably opt out of autopay. Don't let your storage be a place that you can't easily move it when you're ready to get out of there. Put your stuff on Dolly's. Shop around. ... Read more

    I believe I was wronged. The reason is that I recently rented a storage unit, and three months later, my monthly rate increased from $179 to $204. When I called, I was told that I had been paying a promotional rate. However, to my recollection, I was only informed that the promotion covered the first month free. Additionally, I was told that the computer might raise my rent again. What kind of scam is Prime Storage running? Now, I’m looking to switch to U-Haul because, as I understand it, their prices should stay the same. The only good thing about that place is the customer service from Chasity. ... Read more

    Chasity, the manager, was super friendly, fast, and helpful. It took less than 30 minutes to rent a unit, purchase lock and keys, receive code to gate, and for her to show us where the unit is and how everything works. Also, their app is very convenient. ... Read more
    Mrs. O. - 17 April 2025
    I rented a storage unit here and was shocked when, after just two months, they increased my monthly rate by over $40 without clear explanation. When I questioned it, they told me they'd only reduce it by half – which still wasn't acceptable. I never agreed to such changes and felt blindsided. I had invested time and effort into organizing and setting up my unit, only to be forced to move everything again – which ended up costing me hundreds in moving expenses. To make things worse, the facility didn't feel secure. On multiple occasions, I noticed people lingering behind me trying to access the property without authorization. I reported it, but never felt truly safe storing my items there. If you're looking for a storage unit, especially for business purposes, I strongly advise looking elsewhere. Between the surprise rate hikes and lack of proper security, this place simply isn’t worth the risk. ... Read more
    Khalid S. - 15 April 2025
    One of the most underhanded, duplicitous, and disgraceful businesses I've ever encountered. I rented a 10x10 unit in January for $90/month after taxes, fees, etc. Within 60 days they doubled the charges (92.6%, actually.), claiming imaginary "changes in the market, availability, etc. I asked the CSR when was the last time the rates decreased due to market pressures, she replied they have never done so. I then informed her that she must not know how markets work because no "market" in history has never not decreased in value. I told said it is obvious that the online price was a teaser and they buried the rate changes in the fine print. I have emptied out my unit after letting them know that they will never see a thin, red dime from me ever again and that I'd sooner burn everything I own myself than to have it under their roof for one second longer. ...

    No issues with the storage unit, except it was very expensive. They charged me an extra month when I lived out because I didn’t provide a 15 day notice, which seems completely arbitrary. Read the fine print, because what they tell you verbally and what you sign aren’t necessarily the same thing. ... Read more
