My dad had a storage unit here for 41 years. I moved him out of New York and so I had to move him out of the storage unit. I was not able to gain access to it since it was his name but I was able to provide a power of attorney and was allowed to proceed. The team at this place was absolutely amazing on helping me navigate the process and closing the unit. I think my dad had the oldest unit they have ever seen. Lol read more

The space itself is fine and my items were safe for the two years we used them. However, I wanted to shout out the office staff and manager for working with me to facilitate an early move-out. They were very accommodating and were able to provide me with a refund. They remembered me and my case and even spoke with their home office on my behalf. (I also appreciate how gracious they were in dealing with me, a hormonal pregnant woman.) Thank you CitiWide, and I wish your business continued success! read more

I am a repeat client here over 15 years. Today I called in to make a payment and I was 6 HOURS LATE passed the DUE DATE. My due date was March 10 and 11th I get charged $30. I called in and thanked them first for calling me and apologized I was not able to answer as I was really sick this week with Covid and couldn't answer any calls. I asked nicely if they can consider waving the LATE FEE Of $30 given that I am calling now and its only 6 hours into the day. The staff in the location did try to speak to senior management as I know they said they will call me back - and it was denied by David Z - the senior manager. David Z - - why did you deny basic customer service?? Did you incur $30 of service fee's to my account that you had to insist on billing me even though I was 6 hours into past the due date? Its just a STORAGE - and my things are SITTING THERE!!! To pay $30 for 6 hours into the "late fee" day especially since THEY HAD NO EXPENSES INCURRED!! It made NO SENSE and I asked for basic customer courtesy given also that I was severely sick and that I was calling now myself on 6 hours past due date. He confirmed he spoke to the Senior Management David Z. who denied my request. I work in customer service myself all day -- ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY HAD NO EXPENSE!!! MY STUFF IS JUST SITTING IN THE STORAGE!!! THEY DID NOT PAY ANYONE OUT OF POCKET $30 or anything to justify WHY THEY NEED TO KEEP THIS LATE FEE - 6 hours into the past due date. David Z - HOPE THIS REVIEW IS WORTH THE $30 you made today!! read more

The staff at Citiwide storage is exceptionally welcoming and friendly, making the overall storage experience pleasant. The facility itself is nice, but the standout is the super-friendly and easy-to-work-with staff. read more

I love this storage place! I looked all over the area and I think this is the best one. Really friendly, helpful staff! Great pricing. Not a fancy building, but units are clean and easy to access. Convenient access from Greenpoint and Williamsburg, too! read more

I'm a little mixed about this place. I have a unit here for a little over a year. I have some reasons why I like them and reasons why I don't. I like that it's convenient, near home so I can walk there and back with ease. I like the staff, they really are friendly. What I don't like..... I don't like that every time you go your first visit you have to collect a slip. It's pretty annoying, I like to be able to go in and out. I wish it was a 24 hour facility with card keys where you don't have to see anyone for a permission slip. I don't like that sometimes you have to wait on the elevator for a long time. I don't like that they don't prorate being that in the past I moved my stuff out earlier and was told they couldn't refund me for the days I didn't use. It's almost as they nickel and dime every move with their expensive box prices and storage supplies. I don't like that they up your charges of your unit very frequently. I don't like that a bathroom isn't on every floor. I feel that is needed. To be honest I'm not sure there is one at all for the customers. They for sure don't let you know about it if there is one. I know I said more do not liked then likes, However, if this unit is close to home, then it's worth it. The convenience is what does it for me. I mostly store seasonal items to declutter my home so I'm frequently in and out my unit. Hope this review helps someone. read more

When it comes to their service, they expect you to know the ins and outs of their job. So when you have a question, you're belittled and made to look like an idiot. I guess that's what you get when you hire entitled high school drop outs. As for storage, it's not the best, but it gets the job done if you're looking for just a couple months. read more

I have been a customer now for a little over two months now. I originally picked this location due to convenience as I live close by. I have noticed a lot of issues so far but the biggest is the discovery that they have an employee living on site after hrs which is totally illegal by all means. I first got wind of it by listening to two employees talking about it but after doing my own research it is in fact true, their employee Roy lives in the building, he even leaves and enters after hrs. this is very alarming as i was never notified and I'm pretty sure no one knows this. management owes everyone an explanation as to why this wasn't notified to any of us and how they are allowing this. I will be contacting consumer affairs and the local authority as this is totally illegal and being hidden from us all while we are storing items in this facility! I see from previous reviews they have an upper manager named David, does any one know how to get in contact with him directly? I don't trust to go to the manager at the site as he always seems agitated and annoyed. if anyone has worries about the security of their items I suggest you contact consumer affairs and make a complaint or the local authoritie. this is absurd and beyond illegal. read more

I have been a Citiwide Self Storage customer for more than 20 years. I have had multiple rooms of different sizes and the office staff are very helpful in determining the type of room you need. The elevator operator is also a wonderful gentleman who always has a smile on his face and a nice greeting -- which when you are moving lots of boxes is welcomed. From household storage through an out of town job move to just needing seasonal storage, Citiwide is great. The building is not climate controlled, but most types of storage do not need this. read more

"You want to go where everybody knows your name..." Millennials might not get the reference, but this storage facility is literally like our local Cheers pub. The customer service feels personal. From our reservation process with Shan and our move-in experience with Michelle, to the impeccably clean premises and the friendly service elevator staff (hi, Roy!), this place feels like an extension of our home (right down the street) -- which is what you want to feel when you're storing valuable or sentimental objects or need quick access to practical items, like our travel car seats for the kiddos. Speaking of lesser-used, but critical-to-have belongings that you don't want cluttering your home... combined with personalized customer service: Michelle even chased me down with an elevator pass, already completed with my name and unit number, when she saw me walk by the office and forget to check in prior to grabbing an XL suitcase for an upcoming trip. So glad that such an uncharacteristically delightful storage facility is within blocks of our new home. read more

I couldn't ask for a more friendly and convenient space. I needed storage in a pinch, on a Sunday morning, and I was all set up and ready to go with no hassle. Getting a spot at the loading dock can be a drag, if it's busy, but that's the same everywhere. But I mostly never had a problem at all. And thereafter, Sylvia and the rest of the staff made every exchange personable and enjoyable. read more

We were clients for some 12 years, and let me say we did not have fancy red doors on both our units. While location was a prime convenience, it was disappointing that we were still charged a FULL month, even though we had to vacate 5 days into a month. They refused to pro-rate, even for long-time clients. Additionally, before we left, they moved to a new financial system which was a disaster! We were told they had not paid, and sent two reminders, when we were paid up in full. Service is a hit and miss. I don't know who everyone else was dealing with, but I don't think 5-star is a deserving rating, so we're giving 3-stars for our experience. read more

My wife and I came in to get a quote on a storage unit and were greeted by the lovely, charming Michelle Macasa. Her upbeat attitude and patience made the process as easy as possible. It was due to her friendliness that we we signed up on the spot. Michelle is a wonderful representative for the company and should be recognized for it. read more

Amazing service! Lamar, Roy, and Shan were super helpful with my move out process. Im sad to go but am very satisfied with my time here and would recommend Citiwide to any of my friends or family. Thank you guys! read more

It's a storage place, so I wasn't expecting much. My issue with this place is when it came time to leave -- I vacated my unit a few days into the month, only to find out (after cancelling the unit) that they would not pro-rate the month, and charged me for the full month. Why should I be charged for 25 days (days during which I am no longer allowed to use the unit)? That question was met with blank stares, and a follow-up letter went unanswered. If you need to store stuff here, keep a close eye on their business practices. If I had to do it again I sure wouldn't give them my credit card number. read more

Do not under any circumstances buy boxes or storage supplies here unless you're desperate, wealthy, and enjoy being price-gouged. Do yourself a favor: Plan ahead and buy boxes and storage supplies at Home Depot where they cost about 500% less. read more

Straight forward: try paying less or even getting more, I'd be interested to know how many places you'll visit before you realize it's a waste of time. This place is the place. If you know then you know. If you didn't now you do. I've been renting here for about five years. My friends always rent here when they ask for recommendations. My family has rented here for half a century. Bless this building. * Receptionists: LOVELY LOVE THEM ALL! * Porters: my dudes! Always going beyond for the customers. * Manager: A solid guy. In defense of Glen, in response to the angry guy above, he's a manager, he does his job which is to be the bad cop sometimes, and he is also nice whenever he has the opportunity. If you don't read the rules you gotta pay the fees yo. He does plenty of 'going beyond,' especially when you remember he's the manager! PS the building is Godzilla-proof and if they're open during a nuclear attack or epic flood at the end if the world, ill be hiding here. Climate controlled yo. read more

I've been a costumer here for four years. It's the best deal I've found in town. The staff is always friendly to me. It's really simple. You pay your rent. You store your stuff. It's not rocket science, yanno! read more

Citiwide Self Storage - And they even have coffee for you in the morning! - Self Storage Near Me - New York, New York

We have had our business account there for a long time and we ran into issues with management during the pandemic with payments and after a ridiculous amount of late fee's were added (for no change in service other then still the same storage holding our things) - the manager Elliot helped us communicate with management and reason to reduce the fee's to an agreeable amount. It was a challenging time but with Elliot's support and communication we achieved an amicable solution! Thank you read more

It's not like I've tried all the other storage places in NYC but why would I when citiwide is so nice. I was so stressed out picking a place, but incredibly happy my choice went to these guys. Super friendly service (Sylvia is magical!), crystal clear communication, and zero problems over the years no matter what I've needed. read more

I moved my small biz into a 400sf space here last December. From my first visit to this very day, I could not be more pleased. Every single employee here is extremely courteous and helpful, always accommodating in every way. And the value is excellent, too! Overall, five stars aren't sufficient for the nice people here and my great experience. read more

I'm moving my small business into a large storage space there, and all I can say is that the people there couldn't possibly be nicer or more helpful. They gave me a free week to start wiring for electricity and install phone/internet, and will be charging me month to month. By the way, referring to some of the other comments about this place, there's a big sign right on the front desk that they require 30 days notice if you're vacating, so those people complaining about this are just not paying attention. Based on my experience with the people and the place so far, I am very pleased and looking forward to a pleasant working environment with a responsive staff. read more

Excellent service and the staff is always in a good mood. I use Citiwide Self Storage whenever I can and always recommend them when I can.

I met with Shan Kahn last Wednesday after a phone conversation where he provided information on CitiWide and helped me to figure out how much storage I might need. The location is relatively simple to access and the space I decided upon will be adequate for my needs. Shan was incredibly patient, knowledgeable and super, super nice. He took the time to explain every detail to me and said he would always be available in case I had any further questions. I would recommend CitiWide and if you are interested in purchasing storage space speak directly with Shan. You will not be disappointed. Marina R. read more

Incredibly friendly and helpful staff and very convenient hours. Never ever had a problem with accessing my storage unit. Great parking spaces, provides dollies to move your stuff. The price point is incomparable to neighboring storage places, with a wide variety of storage options as well. Staff members are very flexible with your needs, so if you need anything or have questions, just bring it up to them and they will do their best to make it work for you, and work in your best interest! read more

Citiwide Self Storage is a great place to store your stuff. Safe. Dry. Big. And the front desk receptionists are helpful. Sylvia especially! I highly recommend this storage company. Best, Beth G. read more

This is the best place I could find for storage in NYC, for the price, location, hours, and staff. Maia, at the desk, is one of the nicest people you'll meet in NY. She makes you feel like family, instead of just a customer. Be nice to her and she'll take care of you. And, if you're not nice to her, I'm coming for you. read more

Silvia is wonderful and always offering great customer service. She is always willing to go the extra mile

CITIWIDE First of all their Manager GLEN was very rude over the phone. I like a paper trail so I sent an email stating that I would be vacating the unit at the end of the month. Up until today the 12th of the month I had not heard back from them. I ended up calling to follow up and he said that if I wanted to leave, notice had to be given the month before. What???!!! CURRENT AND NEW CUSTOMERS!!! BE SURE THAT YOU GIVE THEM AT LEAST 35-40 DAYS NOTICE OR THEY WILL CHARGE YOU FOR THE NEXT MONTH!!!!! I did not realize if I wanted to leave at the end of June that I had to write a few days before MAY ended?? His exact words were that I think that I am SPECIAL. Because I insisted that I did not want to be charged for July??!! Back from the first day I dealt with these people it was a bait and switch. The first manager I dealt with promised so many things and never followed through. The girls that work in the front in the reception area are much more "professional" than their own MANAGER!! If he can't handle the pressure of dealing with people, he should look for a less challenging job that he can actually handle! Possibly dog-walking. Not sure if he'd excel, he may kick the dogs! I am happy to get out of there!!! There are soooo many other good, clean and cheaper places to store your personal belongings. This is definitely not the place to do it. Because you don't have a ceiling in your unit everything gets dusty. Plus they have a lot of commercial customers that take over all of the parking spaces and the freight elevator when you need to move stuff in or out of your unit. So you basically need to wait forever, or park far away and carry your belongings. Very unprofessional business!!!! They need to do better with their customer service as well. Also, unless you are new customer that wants to rent a unit, do not expect a reply to any concerns to the forms that you fill out on their crappy horribly built website. I'd rather not give them any stars but seems that I have no choice. read more

I'll be the 100th reviewer to say beware. They raise rates 10% a year! We went from $71 a month to $92 a month in two years, plus they charge you $5 a month to pay with a credit card! They're rude, don't return calls and are a pain in the ass. I'm so frustrated my stuff is in there right now. I am going to do whatever I can to get it out! read more

Have been renting since last October. Fantastic experience would highly recommend. People are fantastic and very helpful, pleasant to work with especially Silvia at the office, very professional and effective. Roy in freight elevator a great guy too. Overall we are very satisfied customers of Citiwide. read more

Been renting there for almost two years. Just downsized from one unit to a smaller unit. The staff was very helpful and AnnMarie went out of her way to accommodate the transition. While some people might complain about the hours, those are pretty standard for the industry. This place is safe, clean, convenient and reasonably priced. read more

The task of selecting the right self storage company can be a complicated one, especially when it's your first. So many companies to choose from with comparable options, it makes for narrowing things down that much more stressful. But believe me, there's no need to compare others to Citiwide Self Storage because Citiwide is THE right choice, I guarantee it 100%. If you're hemming and hawing between different storage companies (and there are plenty in the area), you can rest assured that you won't be disappointed with Citiwide, I promise you. The friendliest, most positive and accommodating staff I could have hoped for! Every staff member I dealt with went above and beyond the call of duty. The space is fantastically accessible and clean, reserving my unit was effortless, and I'm telling you, you won't find a more affordable option in town. I never have to deal with crowds, fantastically easy in and out. As I mentioned, this was my very first experience renting a storage unit, and to be completely honest, I'm not sure I could go anywhere else. Citiwide SPOILS me. I will make up your mind for you: Citiwide is the storage company you need to go with, end of story. read more

I've used Citiwide twice now. They have the BEST customer service, Silvia specifically goes above and beyond for her customers. She delivers. I tried going to a different facility in greenpoint but the service was so horrible I ended up back at Citiwide because they were SO accommodating! Storage facilities don't have to be a hassle or a rip off, go to Citiwide, they really do care, helpful is more like it. read more

Great offers, first month was free, easy access, never crowded, helpful staff! Overall a great experience using CitiWide in LIC for storage needs. read more

Very friendly and attentive staff. The space is accessible and affordable. Definitely a good choice for storage needs in this part of the city. read more

Friendly and helpful staff, good rates, convenient location. Who could ask for more. Highly recommend.

I recently used Citiwide storage for about 6 months. The staff, especially Sylvia, were very courteous and helpful. The facility is clean, well-lit and open most days until 8PM and is conveniently located right next door to the E, 7, M and G trains, so getting to the storage facility is very easy. I would definitely use Citiwide Storage again! read more

We had the best experience here. The staff and team were super friendly. The smiles and laughs really help when you're stressing out with a move. Most importantly the team and staff were fast and efficient. We truly feel like we made new friends with the staff!! read more

I am shocked beyond belief. Citiwide is so unprofessional towards their customers. They have no ramp to roll luggage or other articles. During the winter it is freezing to the point that my hands turned blue. And it is disgustingly hot during the summer. They over charge Please do not use this storage they have no respect for their long time customers read more
