This is my first time buying a storage unit and I must say that Beth ROCKS!!! She helped me through the process with ease. Also helped me rent the unit as I'm waiting on a trailer to be built to haul the contents. She was very Informative on what I needed to do and how to do it. This is only the second 5 star rating I've given in 2 years. I don't hand them out easily anymore, she was impressive. GREAT JOB BETH!! Thank you again for your help. ... Read more

I have been with this storage location since 2020. I started a renovation that was not completed due to 2 car accidents that set me back. This location has been great working with me on late payments. I never expected to need it this long, but I am grateful for the kindness of the staff. The location is great, close to home and easy entry through the Bluetooth on my phone. ... Read more

I only gave it a four star because of the time frame they close I should be able to access my storage 24 hrs a day . The amount I paid for it and I had and issue trying to get in one night and I was stuck at the gate and the lady on duty never came out to assist only when she brought her big Bertha behind after I tailed someone in and tried to get out and then she proceeded to tell me my code and where to find it . She lucky I was in a good mood . Sam on the other hand needs a raise and she needs to be the head in charge she is excellent in customer service and doing her job ... Read more

Sam took very good care of me and my needs even after the customer service center couldn't process my payment due to technical difficulties on their end! Even enough I showed up an hour before closing Sam was able to go above and beyond to make sure I understood everything and also maintained good customer service after two other customers came in to make payments . She then went a step further to show me where my storage was located when I came back the second day to move in! The facility has a few minor issues that are in the midst of getting resolved, however I still feel safe with my choice here at the public storage. Thank you Sam for making this second home a special place I can count on! ... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions

There is a wide array of amenities available for the storage units that Public Storage - 401 Buckner Road has to offer. These amenities include Climate-Controlled, Indoor, Drive-Up Access, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Contactless Renting, Security Camera, Gate, Parking, Credit Cards Accepted, Multi-Level Storage, 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 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.

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!
