I highly recommend public storage to anyone in need of extra storage space. I had an issue with my unit and the property manager, Charlie went above and beyond to make me feel seen and heard. I appreciate the way he handled the situation. People do not care what you know until they know how much you care. And based off this experience with him I will always use that specific Hardscrabble location. Thank you, Charlie! ... Read more

Charlie was awesome! Before we exited our Uhaul he asked if we needed help. He was so friendly and nice. We had reserved one of the units online, but once we looked at it we found out it wasn't going to be big enough. Charlie worked with us to get a bigger unit. He took his time to make sure we were satisfied with the new unit. I highly recommend this place, it's clean, friendly staff, and accessible. ... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions

There is a wide array of amenities available for the storage units that Public Storage - 5050 Hard Scrabble Road has to offer. These amenities include Climate-Controlled, Indoor, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Contactless Renting, Security Camera, Gate, Credit Cards Accepted, 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 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!
