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

    Just rented a unit here and the experience exceeded my expectations. Karen was incredibly patient and thorough. She walked me through every option without making me feel rushed and help make my actual move-in smooth and stress-free. Great location. Ample space and easy access. I’d recommend this location to anyone! ... Read more

    I wasn't going to review but I saw a recent similar situation so I thought I should. I had a unit broken into and most everything stolen. It was near impossible to find help. The call center emailed the DM and I called the DM. The DM never called me back. No help from the lady at the front, she was rude. I was told to file a police report. They've got cameras everywhere so it would probably be easy for them to see what's going on in their facility. Probably an inside thing. Also they've got junk all over the place, I didn't see any of my stuff but someone's whole house was dumped in the back. ... Read more

    Karen helped me with a situation that had nothing to do with this location but from one that I have been trying to get closed for a while now. Her customer service was great and she did everything she could and got my account closed from this other location. It was much appreciated and she really went the extra mile! ... Read more

    Karen is an absolute rockstar! Friendly AND helpful staff! I accidentally left out some kayak racks and Jaren picked them up and put them in their maintenance unit until I came in and asked if they found them! I highly recommend this place! ... Read more

    I had a great experience with Karen at this public storage. On short notice she helped me get a unit the same day and helped get me the best deal. However, I only needed my unit for a couple days and never checked it out. Karen then helped me prove I didn’t use the unit and I didn’t have to pay the extra month. I can’t express how helpful, nice, and kind Karen was. Definitely recommend this place. ... Read more

    Don’t store your stuff here! Worst experience ever. They raised the rent 3x within a year from $175 to $333. I spoke to several people about it and everyone said there’s nothing they could do. Also when I went to move my stuff out my unit was infested with mice. Mouse poop on everything and they chewed some of my furniture and through several boxes. Public Storage is supposed to take care of pest control. When I told them I was just given several excuses. I kept no food or anything in there that would draw mice. Also there are so many pot holes they don’t take care of the property and the dumpster is always full and if you put stuff next to the dumpster you are fined. Beware of this place! ... Read more

    Karen is the best! She really took the time to show us all of our options and find us the best deal possible. Can’t recommend her enough! She knows what she’s talking about and provides great service - in the office and out on the lot. 5 stars!!!! ... Read more
