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.

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.

Very understanding young man you have working for you I really appreciate his gratitude and his kindness I believe his name was Andrew very nice gentleman
Place sucks. Find a local mom and pop shop. They raise your rates via bait and switch. I think I paid $70 at first, then $103, then tested me again and raised it to $133. After $133 p/m, I planned an exit strategy.
Cost me 6 hours of time , labor ($80), and truck rental ($120) to get my stuff out of here.
They know full well that it costs you money, time, and energy so you pay the price increase. I didn't bother calling the office because it was going to be an excuse for the price increase (deception).
Industry as a whole is unethical, find a small business that won't raise your rates. I found one for $55 with no mandatory insurance.
Been renting here since July and the customer service has always been awesome. Clean secure facility.
She has been loyal and respectful for the duration of time she's been employed here. I've been renting this space here for a decade.. I've been a loyal public storage user for over 50 years.
DO NOT USE THIS BUSINESS. Absolutely the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. I regret not using a more expensive storage option—these people are a joke. Please do not come here.
One of the vendors for the property. Dealing with Kordell and Desiree is always a pleasure. They both know this property like the back of their hand and always make my job so much easier. 10/10 location would highly recommend to anyone in the area. Very clean public storage and the place is very secure.
Lo recomiendo mucho el precio es accesible y muchas gracias a Marcela en servicio al cliente por la paciencia y la ayuda
Un muy buen lugar me parece perfecto 👌 lo recomiendo muchas gracias Marcela por la paciencia me ayudo en línea
Mrs Desiree down at de soto st is always so kind and helpful. She’s made my experience with public storage so easy ever since she took over. I can’t imagine that place without her.
She's kind curtious very perfessinal&very helpful
Very helpful! Very direct and supportive!
Desiree was very nice and service was perfect
Rachel was amazing and kind and very helpful. Great doing business with her!!
Desiree is a boss with everything
Ms.Desiree deserves a raise she is awesome!
I have definitely had an amazing experience using this storage. Ms. Desirae at the front desk has saved me twice in the same week with my storage. Yesterday I accidentally put the lock on wrong and left the location, when she noticed it she called me immediately to let me know about it. Then today I came in and my lock was malfunctioning for some reason so I went to talk to her and she find the solution immediately. I'm so grateful for her amazing customer service!
Desiree did a wonderful job by assisting me an honestly she is a great value to the company . Thank you Ms.Desiree for your help today
My wife and I have had the same unit since December 2022 and have enjoyed the experience from Day 1. We are truly grateful to the staff and management for their excellent service.
I’m so grateful for Autumn at Public Storage. She was such a huge help. She assisted us with everything, from touring the facility and to purchasing the supplies. Autumn is super knowledgeable and made my transition so much easier. I really do appreciate everything that she has done. An angel in disguise!
I'm so sick of management change. It seems like ALL the lazy ones are sent here to get fired in less than 90 days... There was ONLY 1 ASM and she was awesome and on top of everything...I think her name was Paula (med. built semi short, probably in her late 30's to mid 40's) but dont quote me on the name... Unsure where she is but she walked the property dealt with customers, you knew she earned her paycheck...
Both Times I've Had Storage unit there Service was Fantastic Curtesy and Respect ALWAYS
Every time I go to this particular Public Storage, I get spectacular customer service from Desiree. She always has a big smile on her face and is approachable. She lightens up my whole day just by her mood.
**Horrible Experience with Public Storage: A Rodent-Infested Nightmare**
If you're considering Public Storage for your storage needs, think again. My experience was nothing short of a disaster, and I wish I had heeded the warning signs.
When I moved in, I immediately noticed rat droppings in my unit. I reported this issue to the staff, and they assured me that the problem was "fixed." Fast forward when I am back in the country— I returned to find my belongings destroyed. The company’s negligence is appalling; they clearly knew about the rodent infestation but chose to do nothing about it.
And let’s not forget about their sneaky rent hikes. This Public Storage lures you in with attractive rates for the first term, only to jack up the prices once you're locked in. It’s a classic bait-and-switch tactic that leaves you feeling exploited.
Corporate never reached out about the issues either.
In summary, Public Storage is a poorly managed facility plagued by rodent issues, unresponsive staff, and deceptive pricing practices. Save yourself the headache and look elsewhere—this place is a disaster waiting to happen.
Walked onto the property and I was greeted witha friendly smile and warm welcome from the manager. Autumn took care of all my questions and was very patient with me and helped me understand what each unit was and what they were good for. She even helped me set up my account and I really appreciate it. If you want someone who cares definitely recommend talking to her. Wonderful job!
I had a very smooth and pleasant experience with Public Storage. The experience was made very fast and easy due to the great customer service Desiree provided.
Mrs Rachelle was a great I’ll be back soon
Rachelle helped me a lot thank you
Mrs Rachelle was awesome very cool
Ms. Rachelle was very helpful I was worried about my things getting damaged from the storm and she said sure she checked to see if my unit was fine. It’s good to see good people that help like that.
This place is the biggest rip off. It’s straight up robbery. If you are late on one payment they double your rent on fees and threaten to throw your stuff into auction. Also cut your lock after 15 days and make you buy another one for $25. Will never again use public storage!
Desiree was so helpful. She was able to waive my late fee and also researched in order to lower my monthly payment due to inflation. She was so understanding and dealt with me with empathy. Great customer service!!!
Lakeitha was excellent. She has the best customer service ever.
Awesome location, Desiree and Jasmine keep the place very clean. Super friendly.
They should accommodate longer hours in the summer, its a lot better after sunset if you have any work to do loading or unloading your space
Its hard getting any contact with the office. I left numerous of vmails/calls and came up here several times. No one is ever here. Iwas succesful one time out of the multiple attempts and they couldnt assist me because the employer was new and they remolded and changed everything.
I was told to come back to speak with the manager and Im here been waiting for 20mins and still no one is in the office. I had zero issues until now.The manager never returned my call its been 3mos now.
I honestly dont know whats next from here.
Rodent issues that never go away...smh
Great Facility and clean for the area. Staff friendly and really knowledgeable.
The experience at this public storage was outstanding. I normally don’t leave reviews but definitely had to. The manager was awesome going above and beyond to ensure that all my needs were met. Called me and confirmed the move. This was nothing but excellent service. I was able to complete the move-in online it was super easy, and my lock and paperwork was in the unit. Thank you!

Horrible!!! From the inside out. Place is run down and not secure. There are drunks sitting and standing around most of the day. Prices are reasonable but dont let that fool you.
A swarm of mice
The inside storage is very safe and very clean. Not a lot of traffic at all. Thank you public storage for doing your job of keeping the place safe and secure. A very nice lady did my process with care. May have to take her out for a burger and fries.
Phone conversation got things taken care of.
