We are using Public Storage. We have had prior experience in two other cities with self storage, on a short term (a year or so). I picked Public Storage, this specific location, based on Yelp. We had short notice: I had 150 boxes in my brother's basement, and he needed to have his furnace replaced, and my boxes were blocking where the furnace sat.
The cost is reasonable. The check in went fine. It took a bit of fiddling on the website to set up everything for my wife. That is user error and not the best user interface. The manager also kept calling me, not her, but that was due to my not having her listed as the emergency contact, due to the foregoing issue. It was all resolved soon enough.
The interior common space was clean and tidy. I have no complaints. read more
