Self Storage FAQs
Self-storage prices vary by location, unit size, features, and availability. Smaller units typically cost less than larger ones, and indoor and climate-controlled units may be priced differently than standard units. Public Storage offers month-to-month rentals, so you only pay for the time you need.
Specials vary by location and unit type, so checking current rates and promotions in your area is the best way to find the most up-to-date offers.
Start by taking inventory of what you plan to store and how often you'll need to access it. A small 5x5 unit often fits boxes or small household items, while medium sizes like 10x10 work well for multiple rooms' worth of belongings. Larger units, such as 10x20 or 10x30, are designed for bigger items or business needs.
Indoor Storage Units: Located inside a building with hallway access.
Outdoor Drive-Up Units: Ground-level units you can drive up to for quick loading and unloading.
Climate-Controlled Units: Designed to help maintain more consistent temperature and humidity levels. Availability varies by location.
Vehicle Storage: Options may include parking spaces or enclosed units for cars or small trailers.
RV or Boat Storage: Typically offered as open or covered parking spaces at select locations.
Business Storage: Units suited for storing inventory, equipment, or supplies without the cost of commercial property.

Climate-controlled storage helps maintain more consistent temperature and humidity levels inside the unit. It's commonly used for items like books, fabrics, electronics, or other belongings that can react to extreme heat, cold, or humidity. Climate-controlled storage is available at many—but not all—locations, so availability depends on the facility.
Drive-up access refers to a ground-level storage unit that you can pull your vehicle right up to. This makes loading and unloading quicker because you don't need to use hallways, elevators, or stairs. It's often chosen for storing larger items or boxes you'll want to move in and out easily.
Some storage facilities offer 24/7 access as an added feature, while others provide extended access hours. Availability varies by property, so it's best to check your location's access hours when renting a unit.
Common security features include:
• Gated access with individualized entry codes
• Bright lighting throughout the property
• Onsite staff during office hours
• Video surveillance
• Well-maintained fencing and facility grounds
• Storage unit locks available for purchase
Features can vary widely by location, so reviewing your facility's offerings is recommended.

Viviana was such a pleasure to deal with. She showed me some units earlier this week and provided the best alternatives for me as well.
She'd been patrolling the property when I arrived working up a sweat and still had the energy to help me out.
Thanks again
Viviana (and also Jordyn) was very c half as I transitioned from one unit to another in the facility.

Met Tammy at the University and Honore PS Office. Personable, professional. Listened well to my concerns. Issue resolved quickly. On point!
I stepped in earlier today to request some info about some units. There was a lovely lady there by the name of Viviana who was very kind and eager to help. She claimed she was new but I couldn't tell. Thorough, knowledgeable, and friendly. Above and beyond process. Genuinely pleased with the whole encounter. Would recommend renting with her!
Kristee was awesome!

I had such a great experience renting a storage unit here! The space was clean, secure, and easy to access, which made the whole process stress-free. What really stood out, though, was the amazing customer service. Kristee was incredibly helpful, patient, and kind from start to finish. She made sure I understood everything clearly and went above and beyond to make the rental process smooth. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
The unit I rented was clean and plenty of space. The young lady showed me around the building and was very knowledgeable and very informative about the unit's. Kristee is the best person I have ever rented with 10/10 would definitely recommend renting with her

Friendly and helpful staff . Clean and safe location
Kristie and Scitt gave the most amazing customer service!!!
The people at the facility were very nice and helpful. I rented there for almost 3 years. The facility was clean and I had zero issues with the storage unit. Unrelated to the staff, facility, or my unit, I was frustrated how frequently and how much the cost increased over the time I rented there.
Overall experience was fantastic! Great customer service. Fantastic representation supporting company goals!
Very nice and helpful got me into a unit really quickly

A great experience with my new storage place. Kristee has been instrumental on a smooth transition. Her communication skills, costumer service manners & knowledge are instrumental on a great manager, which Kristee has. Thanks & here are 100 ⭐️
Unit clean and secure. Easy t access.
I recently rented a tiny Storage unit at Extra Space Storage at 5150 University Pkwy, Sarasota, FL. Emptied-out my car so I could DoorDash and Instacart during my two-month winter visit in Florida. The location of this Extra Space Storage worked out perfectly. The place is super clean. The management and staff are very friendly! Would happily rent at this place again next year!
The facility was clean and well maintained. I was very satisfied.
Great service!! And help
Kristee was awesome to work with. I explained the situation which just happened to be divorce and she really helped me through the process of getting the right space at the right price for the length of time I needed. It was easy and a pleasure to work with her. I will go with this location in the future if I need storage for any reason.
Very clean facilities and most important under air. The staff are always friendly and very helpful.
I’ve rented numerous units in South Pasadena, St Petersburg and Sarasota.
Excellent service when both renting and vacating
Kristee was very helpful and super nice with my million questions that I had. She showed me the available storage units so I could visually see and determine which one would meet our needs for our daughter. Def would recommend!!
Sean was extremely helpful, professional and polite, which made the entire process in renting my new storage unit at the 5150 University Parkway facility in Sarasota, Florida very simple and straightforward. I have been renting from Extra Space at one location or another since 2006.
Thank you for helping me with the rent of my unit the 2 girls there take the time to direct me through the process.
Thank you to the store manager KRISTEE SCHAY in Universty parkway to make everything more easy for me.
Renter beware of price increases. Corporate greed takes over. Approximately 1 year ago I started at approx. $160/ mo. In March, Then it went to $254 in July and got notice in March of this year it's going up to $334/mo. This was a 10x15 unit. Needless to say I moved to another facility for $138/mo. Huge savings. I will say the facility was nice but not worth the money.
This place is not like other storage places, it's special. They are concerned about our personal stuff
Great service
KRISTIE is great. Hardworker, professional, personable, HELPFUL. She is accommodating and sharp. It has been a pleasure there since she came on-board. 5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 ! Thank you for the help!
