Anytime you have things in storage, you should keep things organized and preserved and not forget about your things and go back a year later, that is considered negligent in a consumer part. You must keep your things in containers and plastic and make sure you have mouse traps and dust your items every so often.

Don't store any food that rats or mice can open and eat.Things don't stay clean on its own.

The consumer must keep things clean and organized. Not just neglect their items in storage and expect that the storage facility is responsible for the consumers actions.

If you move out of Public Storage on the first day of the month, they will bill you for the entire month - BEWARE OF THIS!!!!! There is no pro-rating!!!! They will then, most likely, rent out your vacant unit that you paid for and collect double rent. This is a change...

The same way they can charge someone whose had an account with them $220 for a 10×20 unit and only charge a "new" customer $120. Best advice.....move out at the end of the month & don't give them the "optional" notice.

Details
Public Storage 1881 N Decatur LV , NV.

Rented a unit on line and paid admin fee. When we went to see the unit....it was dirty, watermarks on the walls, ceiling falling down, smelly stains on floor. The back door was wide open. I went right back to the office and the young lady who was there was helpful but didn't know how to cancel. Spoke with District Mgr and Corporate, and they say we must pay the whole month and admin feel. The clerk originally took the lock fee off but the next day they sent that charge through. I have pictures...corporate says sorry... My bank says...we will block the charges.

User's recommendation: check the condition of the unit before signing up. I had used this location years ago and it was great.

Public Storage - Late charge 30.00

1.3
Details
Recently public storage bought the storage company I was doing business with. I have been there since 2017 and never missed a payment. They would call before the late charge and ask for the payment. This company waits until the late fee is assessed then they call you and tell you the bill is past due. And there late fee are outrageous, employees very rude The Worst storage company to do business with.

User's recommendation: I would not recommend this storage company.

Public Storage - YOUR EMAIL and late charge

1.0

I have sent an email to this address. I cannot believe that you did not charge my card like every month! I was in the hospital and got your mail today. WHY did you not charge it??? I was NOT aware about this, because in the hospital with constant IV s in my arm, i did not use my phone. It is unbelievable that in times like this you threaten with late charges - and YOU did NOT charge it!! It is not my mistake. When i am healthy again i will cancel my contract with you.

User's recommendation: I will cancel my contract when i am healthy again and will never recommand P ST to anybody.

Public Storage retaliation? I complained by email to Public Storage about them threatening customers with auction if they are even one day late with their payment. Suddenly my rate increased by $10/month. Looks a lot like retaliation for my complaint. The timing is very suspect.

Public Storage - Horrid customer service

1.1
Details
I had 3 units for less than one month, paid upfront when I rented and prior to one month, though I was on autopay with my credit card, got an email that they put a lien on my property in one unit for $38 bill though they were supposed to automatically charge my credit card. I go no prior communication before they put the lienG on property and unit and threatened to auction off my property for $38.00. I was told someone turned off my autopay. If I had not seen the email, I would have lost valuables due to their inefficiency. I insisted on a manager conversation. District manager told me the lien letter goes out automatically, computer generated and when I asked for an apology email, he said that would not be done. NEVER USE THIS COMPANY

User's recommendation: Go elsewher3e.

Public Storage - Complaint about manager

1.0
Details
I was given till today to pay a move out settlement with public storage. I was severely effected by the COVID-19 -19 virus I was exposed to it at work and my job was and is still shut down. I spoke to Jacob the manager at the facility by the port in Ft Lauderdale. He basically said my financial troubles were not his problem and was unwilling to help. They only made move out solutions, and they helped take off fees. I was so far behind from lack of work, and they just did not care to say the least and wouldn't give me a settlement extension. I am shaken and beside myself. I have two children, and we are just barely making it buy and that is all that we ow. That is in that unit.

User's recommendation: No one was prepared for this. Please find a place with people who care about you and your situations.

Public Storage - Complaint about manager

1.0
Details
The manager Jacob who works at the Public storage off of 84 in Ft. Lauderdale, basically told me that my financial matters were not his problem. I had COVID-19 -19 and had lost my job and now tomorrow my belongings will be auctioned off. I'm beside myself, and they are not willing to do anything to help me. They gave my a settlement but I have no money. I am waiting on my stimulus and IRS, and I am still pending with unemployment. I'm about to lose everything. And I am so hurt, frustrated, and embarrassed

Stolen RV from Public Storage

1.0
Details
We stored our 35 foot, half ton RV at the Public Storage at Newcastle and the Southwest Frwy in Houston, Texas. It was stolen from the lot! Both the Corporate and local office personnel did not care. We were told that the surveillance cameras would be reviewed. What a lie! Im wondering if they even work or are they there just for show. We have not heard back from them. I have contacted them numerous times. Pitiful way to treat customers. Please dont use any of their locations to store your belongings.

User's recommendation: Stay far away from this company!
