Public Storage Self-Storage Units at 4780 Arlington Centre Blvd, Upper Arlington, OH

Public Storage es el mejor! Anna me ayudó con mis necesidades de almacenamiento. Este lugar es muy limpio y seguro! Recomiendo muchísimo!

RJ was so helpful and a pleasure to work with! Great, clean facility.

I have this storage for a year and now I pay double of original price the low price is a lie very disappointed

Previously given a good review. I take it back, these guys are garbage. Our bill increased by almost 120% over two years. Highway robbery and I will never use public storage again. Absolutely shameful crook behavior.The lady in the office is a sweetheart though.

So, had a question about payments and saw Arlene today 2/7/25 and she fixed everything up quickly. She has provided excellent customer service from the first time we moved in up to now. She is very helpful and dedicated to what she does. (Guess this is how you add a second review - to edit the first?) (February 2025) Arlene did a great job of getting us through the internet process. She also got us running on the app. She is very helpful and friendly. The unit was clean and everything was in order when we moved in. (September 2024)

Shes great

Arlene was FANTASTIC!!! She was very helpful to fix a problem i was having. Thanks, Arlene!

Arlene from the 4780 Arlington center Blvd public storage in upper Arlington was so polite and helpful it was refreshing.

Arlene is amazing and always helps me with my needs. I have 4 units there and she’s always welcoming and helpful.

Absolutely the worst storage facility company I’ve ever gone with. Monthly bill went from $135 up to $200 after two months. Then increased to $250 a month. The second you’re late on your payment they lock you out of the facility. Lots of hidden fees and this facility is quite run down. They’ll send you to auction if you fall 2 months behind, where every other company gives you 3 months which is how it’s laid out in the law. Would not recommend any of their locations after the horrible 8 months we had with them as our storage facility. Much better, nicer and cheaper options available in the area. Only thing positive I have to say about the company, the facility or the staff is that Arlene is such a sweetheart! She was always super helpful and has the best customer service I’ve ever seen.

Arlene was great help! Wonderful place!

Arelene was very helpful during our call. She took the time to answer all my questions! Thanks for the great service!

Arlene was fantastic

I am so happy that Arlene has been available when I visit my unit at Arlington Centre. She has provided facility updates, options for enhanced storage, and also has kept my account current when I wasn't sure if Autopay was in sync with my account!

Arlene was very helpful when there was a problem and got it straightened out right away.

Arlene is always wonderful! Super helpful and kind. Thank you!!

Shoutout to Arlene, who has always been pleasant and helpful!!!

Great location great customer service

Great people. Nice location.

Very nice staff! Helpful and kind too. Facility is very clean and quiet. I believe it will be a very pleasant experience to continue to store belongings here. Highly recommend this facility! 5 STARS

They have recently painted and added cameras, renumbered the units, several upgrades to make the place more presentable

The Attendant Arlene was a total doll!! I highly recommend!!!

I don't usually take the time to write reviews, especially not for a storage facility. You might even think it's odd that I'm so enthusiastic about something as seemingly mundane as renting storage space. But when someone goes above and beyond in a way that genuinely impacts your life, it's worth sharing. I was facing a particularly stressful situation, about to leave on an early flight with a million things on my mind. Anxiety was high, and I needed assistance that went beyond the usual expectations. That's when I connected with Arlene at Public Storage on 4780 Arlington Centre Blvd. Even over the phone, Arlene's warmth and genuine care were immediately apparent. She didn't just provide information; she listened intently to my predicament and understood the urgency and complexity of my situation. Without delving into specifics, let's just say she took actions that exceeded all my expectations, providing me with immense peace of mind. Arlene's dedication isn't just about excellent customer service—it's about compassion, empathy, and a true willingness to help someone in need. She turned what could have been a major hurdle into a seamless experience, allowing me to focus on my trip without additional worries. If you're skeptical about finding such remarkable service at a storage facility, I get it—I was too. But Arlene shattered those preconceived notions. She didn't just do her job; she made a meaningful difference during a challenging time in my life. To anyone in need of storage solutions—and who appreciates exceptional service from someone who truly cares—I wholeheartedly recommend Public Storage on Arlington Centre Blvd. Arlene and the team there set a new standard for excellence. Arlene, thank you for your outstanding kindness and unwavering dedication. You are a rare gem, and any team would be incredibly fortunate to have you. Your efforts have not gone unnoticed, and I am profoundly grateful for the peace of mind you provided.

Arlene is awesome!

Arlene is the most caring and helpful manager I've met in Columbus, OH. Definitely talk to her about your storage needs. My treasures were absolutely happy to be stored at this facility.

Arlene is always professional, efficient, and will go the extra mile to ensure everything runs smoothly. Highly recommend:)

Arlene was very helpful with getting my into the it closet and knowing what needed fixed we got her up and running

After reviewed couple location, I chose this one! It's quite and clean. The lady Arlene is a very nice lady. She knows a lot of tenet here! She helped me a lot to get ready!

Excellent storage. Perfect place. Very helpful staff, especially Arlene! She was very kind to me and helped me sort out all the issues. Thank you very much, I will continue to use your services.

Arlene was wonderful. Please give her a raise. She had to walk back-and-forth to my storage unit a few times for us and had no issues doing that. I really appreciate her. Thank you so much Arlene.

Arlene is always very helpful with cameras and security systems and technicians

Arlene was very sweet and easy to work with. She helped me vacate my lot and made sure all payments were taken care of. I’ve also spoken on the phone to her once, and felt like I was her top priority!

It was really easy to get a storage unit here and Arlene was always helpful and very quick to respond. Would recommend using this company for storage.

Arlene was very kind and professional when it came to renting a storage unit. She made the process simple and efficient. Would strongly recommend!!

Arlene is very friendly and helpful! In many years now renting, I have had various needs and concerns that have quickly been solved by management. When I needed to add an additional unit, Arlene was right there to help me get the best deal. Good pricing overall!

Arlene was very helpful! Gave us a call about our move out of the unit & answered our questions!

Arlene was amazing and very helpful!

Arlene at the Upper Arlington location was great! Very helpful!

Arlington Center property for Public Storage is very well run by Arlene. She is always present and helpful to take care of any administrative or maintenance issues. I needed more space and she not only found new space for me, but it was also close to the 3 other units I rent. I am so happy to be there and know that my business inventory is well looked after. i have referred many people to Arlene to rent there and they have told me they find her to be personable and professional. Thank you PS!

I had to rent out a storage unit in a bit of a hurry to assist my mom with a move. I went in today and spoke with Arlene and she was wonderful. She was so pleasant, helpful, and knowledgeable and it made me feel so great about renting from this location. Thanks for the wonderful service, Arlene!

Arlene is great, she has been very good to me when it came down to all my questions and concerns. Thank you so much.

Huge kudos to Arlene. The first unit I was given over the phone wasn't what I needed, so Arlene found me another one, walked it to make sure it was what I needed, and then got me moved over with a credit to my account to boot. Great customer service!

Arlene was a huge help with some questions I had about my unit. Very helpful and very friendly throughout my whole experience at Public Storage!

Arlene has been such a great help with my two units at the Upper Arlington, Ohio location. She goes above and beyond to make certain that all of our concerns and needs are addressed.

Awesome storage in a safe area. A little dated but the unit works so no big deal. Arlene at the management desk is an angel!

Abilene, the lady who is always there working. She is so sweet, always smiling, thank you! 5 Stars!

Arlene at the front desk was very helpful and understanding when I locked myself out of my unit lol ! Even needed a 2nd unit the same day and was handled able to get right in and secure my things. Thank you Arlene for all your patience and help !!!

Arlene is quick to help with any issue I’ve had, and always a pleasure to chit chat with.

I received a good customer service from the Manager Arlene recently. I recommend Arlington Center Storage facility to others.

Arlene was very helpful and nice. She helped me with deciding on the right storage size. - Greg

The help I got from Arlene the Upper Arlington location was wonderful! She helped us navigate the rental process seamlessly.

Arlene’s help with getting a rental space was perfect! She was patient and answered all my questions with full knowledge of the whole process. This location is conveniently located with many different size units and safety features.

After dealing with a horrible phone service that wouldn't connect my to an actual human lol, I had the pleasure of meeting Arleen and Cindy(who was actually on the phone with Arleen when I got there) who were helpful with getting me all the information I needed. Thank you guys so much! Customer service is still alive and in human form 😆

I had a wonderful experience renting a unit here. The facility was clean and safe and we had zero problems in the time we had our unit. We got a great price on the unit and Arlene was very helpful and friendly. I always looked forward to seeing her when I pulled into the facility. The only reason we vacated was because we moved. Highly recommend!

Arlene, the onsite manager consistently goes above & beyond. Always available & always helpful. She even helped us move in. I highly recommend this location.

There's a woman named Arlene I call her Miss at the upper Arlington location any issue I've ever ran into because it's life things happen prices change sometimes Miss Arlene is maintained giving me the same rate no games always helpful immediately accommodates anything I have a concern about absolutely the kindest caring sweetest woman I believe she's even rush out to me on her own time addressing an issue I was worried about literally letting me know my payment was received Arlene is by far the sweetest and I would not be at the storage property if Arlene numerous effective efforts of help were not there

She was nice

We had a great experience! Arlene was very kind and helpful throughout the whole process.

Arlene gave me really good service😁

Arlene was great help! She even let us know there was bad weather coming when we were moving out. I had a good experience with public storage and will definitely use them again in the future.

EDIT: They contacted me a week later (after I posted my review) agreeing to make accommodations. My understanding is that it's a corporate policy, not specific location based. That being said, I still have seen my rent increase twice since I moved in 14 months ago. Very unaccommodating - have raised rent by $70 in a year. I'm trying to move out and wanted to use a POD Service (to save $1,500) where they would drop it off and pick it up within 6 hours of each other. Not even leaving it there over night. They said that's absolutely unacceptable and wouldn't even work with me on a location on their facility's property (which has a parking lot in front and the POD is the size of a single car). If you want something safe, this place is fine.

My husband and I rented a 10X20 space here and it was very easy to access and convenient. When we vacated our unit, we forgot to take off the lock so public storage couldn’t tell we vacated it. Arlene was very helpful with assisting us in getting this worked out and trying to help me get a refund for the extra month I was charged after we had already vacated. Thank you Arlene!

Charlie is amazing save me and my wife a ton of money Ty Charlie SHE IS THE BESTESTISSSS

Arlene was professional, friendly, and very efficient. Storage unit was clean and easily accessible. Would highly recommend this facility.

I’ve had a wonderful experience with this location. Arlene went above and beyond to help me when I was in a bind. I can’t thank her enough! Glad I decided to try this company.

Arlene the manager was very sweet and accommodating when I needed a lock for the storage unit! space looks secure!

Arlene is the best! Super helpful with the many questions I had during the acquisition and moving process!

Arlene was spectacular she took us to the unit and showed us everything. Explained how the system works on how to enter and exit. She wood be available if we needed her. Supper sweet and helpful.

I just say enough about Arlene! She always greeted me with a smile when needing to go into the office. She is truly amazing and helpful. Today she even helped me to find my key (don’t laugh) to my storage unit saving me money by not having to have a locksmith come out. Arlene is great at hey job.

Great location. Great Price for space. Always clean. Arlene is really helpful

I had to move things of mine into a storage same day and was in a panic to find something. Arlene was there and she found me a storage that was perfect for me very quickly. Definitely go and see her for all your storage rental needs.

Miss arlene was so nice and friendly she is amazing she makes this LITERALLY THE BEST STORAGE IN THE CITY

Arleen was awesome in helping me secure a unit for a timely and quick move-in. Communication and follow-up throughout the booking process were both fantastic

Alex assisted me with 5 star service today

Any size storage you need they have. Prices aren't too bad either.

Arlene did an excellent job of helping me! I highly recommend here!

Connie is awesome !!!

We had a great experience and got helpful advice/assistance with determining the right size storage unit we would need for our camper. Access was easy into the unit and a convenient location from our house.

I normally don’t make the effort to leave reviews, but Arlene is just so helpful, friendly, and kind every time I visit this location that it makes the trip here more enjoyable than a chore. There’s no way I could not leave a review about such a remarkable employee. No idea what she’s currently being paid, but no matter what it is I say give her a raise! Thanks for such great customer service.

This mixed bag company and facility has one bright, shining light-- that being its primary manager, Arlene. Four of the units, all outside the gate, were broken into last Sunday morning while she was on her weekly two days off. One of them was mine-- a 10'x10' unit. Neither the follow-up with the customers nor the securing of the damaged hasps on the door frames was handled well, in my humble opinion, by the person working the custodian job in Arlene's absence, nor the person who was referred to as either the BM (Business Manger, I assume) or District Manager. As a result, I had to go to the Upper Arlington Police Department myself on Monday morning to find out "the rest of the story", as Paul Harvey used to say. And, upon inspection of the jerry-rigged hasp on the door frame to my unit after the burglary, I realized that anyone with a standard screwdriver or a nut driver could easily and quickly remove the screw holding the bottom part of the hasp on the frame and gain entrance to my stuff. Child's play. When Arlene came back from her Regular Days Off and discovered what had happened, though, she conferred with me to find out if I was missing anything. Interesting enough, I wasn't, though three of my plastic storage totes had been opened. Nothing of interest to "pry and grab" robbers trying to to a quick turnaround sale to a pawn shop or whatever, I suppose, even though there WAS a $4,000+ wheelchair and accessories being stored in unit K001. Having no security video cameras, static (think game trail cameras) cameras, or motion sensors anywhere on the property, I appealed to Arlene's better sense about the stunning lack of security of my property in that unit, especially now that the week hasp now was even easier to thwart after the break-in. I told her I would, therefore, have to move if the company didn't make this right. She appealed to her manager, in turn, to move me to a unit inside the gate as well as give me a free 30 days of rent for my trouble and consternation. She came back to me and told me the DM didn't agree with her-- he refused to "make good" the bad situation. I then laid out for her Amy plan to inform the police of the developing scenario, as well as the BBB in the area, as well as write appropriately negative reviews on Google, Apple Maps, and Yelp if the DM continued to not want do "the right thing", especially since the facility did indeed have a 10x10 unit available for me within the fence. She once again pled her (my) case to her boss, this time undoubtably at some risk to her own relationship with him and her job. He relented, though, and I am now moving my goods in storage to a unit inside the fence. Also, Arlene did in fact arrange for a "complimentary" month of storage fees. Were it not for Arlene, personally, this bad situation would have gotten even worse-- for all parties, not just me. She "saved the day" through her sense of fairness to everyone. Though the burglary didn't occur on her "watch", she has fixed the problem for her loyal customer that has thrown thousands of dollars their way in the past years. Attagirl, Arlene! Instead of 1 star, you have earned your facility a 5-star rating by showing "the right stuff". --Jay

This facility is close to my home and offers adequate space for me to safely store my vintage car each winter. There's lots of options nearby and Arlene is the reason I come back year after year. She provides the highest level of customer service and seems to sincerely care about the needs of her customers. Arlene is why I come here.

Not sure if this "Arlene " is for real, I have visited this location for the past 2 days and the office says open but door is locked! I need to pay my bill ! But "Arlene" is NO WHERE TO BE FOUND?

Very good storage facility. Arlene the manager is exceptional.

I just rented a unit at public storage and Arlene was so helpful she was so patient and explained everything to me she made sure I was straight and all my questions were answered before she walked away

Great place with wonderful customer service. The units are clean and seem to be freshly painted. Arlene at the front desk was friendly, courteous, and delightful to talk to, overall making the process very easy. I would recommend this place to family and friends.

Arlene provided excellent customer service and made the entire process very easy. This storage facility is highly recommended.

I have rented several storage units at Public Storage over the last 20 years so have experience with many of your property managers. Most have provided good service, but over these years Arlene at the Arlington Centre location has been the very best. She has kept me advised of new units available when we needed extra space, made sure things were fixed asap, such as a bulb out, doors that required lubrication , or even getting rid of wasp nests etc. She is there when the property opens and stays until it closes, informed us if we forgot to lock the unit or left the door open. She is one of those special employees that always does things right. I feel more secure when she is on hand. You need more Arlenes at all your facilities!

UNLESS THE MANAGER LEAVES, DONT GO THERE! The gate is only open 6am-9pm EVEN IF your unit says 24 hours. If you exit after 9pm, you get a message about being there TOO late. The manager leaves PRECISELY at 6pm. A couple minutes till, I had to pee, but the door was locked. She said they are locked at 6pm. She WOULDN'T open it. My husband wanted to find something in storage so I dropped him off. He went into the unit and closed the door. A lady knocked, so he answered. She made ACCUSATIONS that were ludicrous. She didn't even identify herself as the manager until after her TIRADE. She said a neighboring renter complained that he played the TV all night. (Um, no, aside from the fact he's NEVER been there that late, the TV is buried in the back.) She said he was smoking and the neighbor's clothes smelled. (He's been there only 3 or 4 times, even if he did smoke one, the odor wouldn't have had time to waft through the sheet metal wall.) She made him REMOVE the space heater and empty gas cans. (Now she wants proof that they are gone.) After all that she called the POLICE. He couldn't leave until I picked him up. THEN she entered MY locked unit (same last name) WITHOUT permission or cause and removed items. Neither of us have has access to our things. She PASSED the buck and claimed the district manager (who lives 3 hrs away) has to be there for me to open it. CHRISTMAS is in 2 days. Everyone's PRESENTS are in storage! She REFUSED to let me in. AWFUL CUSTOMER SERVICE!!

Arlene is great!! She is so helpful and friendly!! I would definitely recommend this Public Storage!

Wonderful service. Arlene, Walked us through the process, simple, direct, awesome. Clean area, well kept and cared for.

Thanks for your service Arlene.

Very g00d service

Ms. Arlene had exceptional customer service very easy to talk to. Made an unfortunate situation not hurt as bad. Thanks Ms. Arlene you made my month.

Arlene is Amazing! A plus service! Highly recommend renting from her! She deserves a Raise!

Hi I am writing a review for Arlene she provided excellent customer service and I would recommend public storage to anyone in need of a storage unit Arlene is very kind and I believe goes out of her way to help people thank you

Arlene helped me with the storage unit and took the time to help me find the right size that I needed. Great service and friendly!

Arlene is absolutely amazing. We have been using this storage place for almost 2 years. She is always very friendly and helpful. It is clean and well kept .

This is one of the nicest public storage facilities I've used. The units are older but Arlene, one of the propert managers helped me so much by showing me the best unit to fit my furniture. She's an absolute pleasure to do business with. She's thorough and accommodating. She knows her job and makes it an easy transition. If she's out on the property - she always leaves a note so you're not left thinking "is this place closed?" I was actually sad to say goodbye to her the day I moved the last of my stuff out. She remembered that I had been traveling and wished me the best in the future. 10 stars for Arlene and UA public storage.

Ms Arlene is incredible

They were great

UPDATE 6/24/22: After 6 months they wanted to raise the rent $60. On 3/10/22 I asked about possibility of keeping same rate. Got a 3 month reprieve. Asked again if there was any way to keep rate affordable. Was told point blank by Arlene that if I move out they can rent the unit for more. Have at it! Found a unit at one of their competitors that is cleaner and better maintained for less than what I was paying. Moving out on 6/29. 3/10/22: Needed assistance for a billing issue and Arlene was superb. She completely understood the issue and had it fixed in less than two minutes.

I have had a wonderful experience renting at Arlene’s storage. She is very knowledgeable and a great person to work with. If I ever have to rent a unit again that’s the place to go

Arlene has been extremely helpful in getting our upcoming move from out of state settled with a storage unit close to our new home! She has been attentive, communicative, and extremely friendly and is the reason the storage unit is as great as it is! It's in a secure and private location and provides gated secure access. This is imperative for peace of mind and we are so happy we chose to rent space here!

I have known Arlene for 10 years at Public Storage.  Arlene and your company have saved me on 3 numerous occasions in my time of need at this location.  Arlene is the most helpful, nicest, polite and friendly person I've truly ever met. She is a fantastic representative and provides excellent customer service and is tremendous for the Public Storage Company. Arlene makes my move-in experiences awesome, quick and painless.

I'm very happy to be a customer this long with Public Storage.  I have recommended friends and they have used the Upper Arlington location and have been very happy with Arlene and the Public Storage Company.

I had to get a storage unit for a new job, and Arlene really helped me by letting my know she was running low on small units, showing me one that would be appropriate for my needs and helping me lock it up. She truly gave amazing customer service and is such a kind lady. 10/10 would recommend However, I do wish the doors were actually orange and not tan lol. Thank you again!

I always get great service from Arlene at this Public Storage location. She goes out of her way to help me, whether its my late rent or questions about my lease. Its never a problem for Arlene! Thanks Arlene :-))

Been using this place for almost a year. The other day Sue Anne was there and was very helpful. Thanks again

Arlene the property manager is excellent and very professional. I always recommend this location because of her. -Marc

Arlene was a delight! Very helpful and professional, she made sure I was taken care of in a timely manner and offered me items I didn't realize I needed. I've never had a storage unit before, but this will be the place I recommend to everyone!

The storage unit I'm renting is clean and has convenient access within the storage complex. The location of the Public Storage facility itself is in a safe and convenient area. The rental process was easy and your associate, Arlene, was both friendly and very helpful. I think I'll be very pleased that I chose your company and this location to solve my temporary storage needs.

Great!

Arlene was very very polite and helpful. Very clean environment and safe. I am very happy with the unit I received for yhe price I did. Thanks alot

Nice, clean, safe location! Manager was very helpful!
