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.
Features and availability vary by facility.

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.

Erin is awesome and so helpful. She is always so nice!!!!!
Erin helped me with my billing questions quickly and effectively. She is friendly and great at her job! Would recommend to anyone.
Ms. Debra is "AWESOME!!!" For someone who "just started" not too long ago, she is GREAT with her customer service skills, and "integrity" for searching things that she wants to make sure she's correct on...for instance, she wasn't sure on how to properly take care of my account, but she made the proper calls to ensure that she handled my account correctly...not many ppl in any business would've taken the time to put in "the necessary work" to do that(not without an attitude)...and for that, she gets this "5-Star Review..."... Thank you soooo much, MS. DEBRA!!!
I spend 5 minutes with Erin and she was able to save me $50. The location is secure and Erin was wonderful! Definitely recommend!

Awesome company. I love how simple it is to rent a storage unit from them online and completely contact free. I rented a 5x15 and the lock was in my unit when I arrived. They also have a mobile app that lets you easily manager account plus it can open doors and gates by simply tapping a button on your phone m
Erin was very customer focused and friendly.
Yesterday (July 4th morning )I was looking for a nice decent reasonable priced storage room in my area to store Mother's belongings, and I found Public Storage on the corners of (RIVER DRIVE ) and Lucius Road, and the guy that waited on me was very Nice Kind with a lot of patience, he explained everything to me in detail, where I could clearly understand, like most storage rentals, he didn't try to get me to rent a space that I wasn't inquiring about, he rented me exactly what I wanted and the price was reasonable, within my budget, and he made sure I knew exactly where my storage was and was helpful on showing me how to use the gate code, he's an all around NICE Customer Service Guy I extend 10 ⭐ STARS
I received great directions and help from this public storage location. Customer service was incredibly helpful.
Erin helped me with my move in she has such great customer service.
Good, secure storage spaces. Helpful staff.
Everytime I come Erin is always a pleasure to work with. She takes the job seriously but is lighthearted and wonderful!
Wonderful employee. Great to work with. Beautiful 😁
Great facility. Erin at the front desk has been extremely helpful throughout this process. I've used other facilities near by in the past but will be sure to come back to 3901 River next time!! Very happy
