    Dead rat from our storage unit

    In August we opened our unit to find rat turds and fiberglass insulation all over the storage unit. It was clear the rats had chewed through the heating duct. There was a smell, so we figured it was likely there was at least one dead rat in there. We told management about it. They seemed totally nonplussed, and made no suggestions or offers to help. At the time, we were dealing with the aftermath of the death of a loved one, so we decided to leave it for now and check back later. About a month later, when we checked back, we saw even more turds. We decided to move our stuff out immediately. Neither my wife nor I are young, so we would have normally hired someone to move everything. However, because everything was contaminated with rat feces (and worse), we had to move everything ourself. We had to pay for truck rental, gas, about 12 hours of our time to do this. And while moving and cleaning, we did indeed find dead rats - multiple of them (see pictures below). Throughout this process management of the unit did nothing - no offer to clean it up, no compensation for the damage, and no apology. If I could give negative stars, I would. There are many storage options in the area - look elsewhere.

    This chunky padlock required  All other Public Storages allow you to use the Universal lock with the black key.

    I am a disabled senior female. If they will do this to me, certainly they will do it to a younger person. Avoid this location at all cost!!! Even if they have a $1 first month special. Don't even consider this place. If you need to travel a mile or two out of your way. I regret that upon renting the space from them, that I didn't walk back out once they informed me that I could not use the Universal Lock that ALL public storages use! Instead I was forced to buy this big chunky padlock looking thing, thats required! (Lining their pockets) My move was sort of an emergency, so I purchased this lock. Now I have a new souvenir that I'm sure I will never use again. They don't have drive up units, so that's a negative. Also their parking lot is empty, because folks avoid their ridiculous rules. No business comes to them. I kept my storage space longer than I intended due to the location being so money hungry, they refused to work with me. On April 1, 2024, my lease started at my new place. Therefore I could not get my keys until then. Also I couldn't move furniture in until 4-1-24. I explained this to the location. I pleaded with them, please don't charge me the full month of April. I couldn't get my items out of storage on 3-31-24, because I didn't get my keys until the following day. I even offered to pay for 1 more day. I promised them I would have my it's moved by 11am on April 1st. I am a disabled senior woman. I am a good and fair person. I've always been that type of person. Public Storage on 221st, Issaquah Wa responded to me, NO! They advised me that if the storage was not emptied on 3-31-24 that I would be charged the FULL month of April. I was forced to pay a full month. I believe their intention was for me to a Pay the full month, then return the storage back to them the next day, so they could rent it out to someone new and make more money! ABSOLUTELY NOT!!! I held on to that storage space that I was forced to pay for until the last day in April!!! I just wanted to share my story with you. Hopefully this helps you make an informed decision. I operate in a place called INTEGRITY, this public storage does not, in my opinion. Shame on them.

    Mice droppings, some larger rat droppings too.

    No, absolutely NO. This location is rat and mice invested. I've had a storage unit at this location for about four years, and have had no issues, except for the steep price increases which has doubled since I signed up with them. However, recently I went into my unit and noticed brown-yellow liquid on top of some of my plastic storage bins. Then looked some more and saw numerous mice and rat droppings. I looked a little further in some of the cardboard boxes, and sure enough, there was a plethora of mice and rat droppings as well as loads of rodent urine (that was the brown-yellow liquid). The more I looked through everything, the more rodent feces I found. I was so disgusted and had to go through and clean all of my containers, (and throw away others) . I immediately told the onsite-manager about it and moved the entire content of my storage that same day to another company in Issaquah that does NOT have rodents. I had to throw about a 1/4 of my belongings away because they were chewed through and had been drenched with rodent urine and feces, which is also a terrible health hazard. Do NOT use this place. And they do NOT provide pro-rated move-in or move-out rates. If you're there ONE day, you pay the FULL month. Avoid this place!

    I rented two units from this business since August of 2019 and just moved out. During this time I…read morecan say that my experience has been amazing. Debby, Bruce and the rest of the team are very easy to communicate with and are keen to help meet all your needs. I initially rented a single 5x10 storage and wanted to upgrade to a 10x10 (which wasn't available at the time), so instead they offered me a second 5x10 at a discounted rate. Their units are clean, well lit and have easy access. The facility felt safe and I didn't run into any issues at all. Hours of operation and pricing is fair and affordable. The only downside (if you will call it that) is that you are not allowed to drop off a moving "pod" in the parking lot or in front of the storage unit to unload directly into the storage unit. This is primarily due to the pods often being left there for a day or more before being picked up again. It was an inconvenience as I had to rent a truck to move the contents of the pod into the unit, but I understand their reasoning behind disallowing it. Also, I felt prudent to comment on another review left by someone else complaining about being charged for another month after vacating their unit. The forms we signed with this business clearly state how to move-out of your unit and cancel the service. I had no issues following these instructions and was not charged for a second month.

    I have been using Safeguard for over ten years. Recently, as our family began a remodel, we needed…read moreto get a different/bigger storage unit. Our request was accommodated quickly and we were shown our options within the large property. When we took our boat out of the water last weekend, my wife suggested I call them about boat storage - again, our request was handled promptly. We were able to add our boat to our monthly recurring auto pay. What really distinguishes this organization from others that simply provide storage, is the family feel. Debbie always has a smile, but when I used the restroom to change for a cross country practice I was coaching the other day, I took a bunch of cash out of my pocket and left it on the bathroom counter. Debbie found it and tracked me down. She knew I had left it there before even I did. I can't say enough good things about the high level of customer service, the family feel and the clean, well-maintained facility.

    I moved my 1 bedroom apartment with the help of Seattle Movers and I'm happy with their service…read more They arrived on time and didn't damage anything through the move. I do think that they would work much more efficiently if you stay with them. I did have a few minor issues. They said they will send two guys, but they sent 3. They didn't tell me anything about extra charges for that, not the day before, not when 3 guys showed up and I asked them I was told they'll send two guys. At the end though they showed me the invoice and the rate was higher. I called them the next day and they totally agreed to respect the agreed upon rate, which is fair and nice. They also sent the truck from a further location, which I wasn't expecting considering that they do charge for driving time. Again, I mentioned this to them and they considered the closer location for their estimate. I appreciate them being understanding, but I'd prefer more honesty and better planning upfront. Overall I'm very happy with the service.

    After concluding my business with Seattle Movers, they continued to charge me monthly storage fees…read moreautomatically for 2 months, for a total of $700. My belongings were back in my home, but they kept charging me! I notified of them of the issue on June 21, 2024, and they stopped the recurring charges. But they have not refunded me for the $700 they overcharged. They continue to make up excuses about new accountants, accountants being on vacation, accountants being hard to work with, etc. They first promised to have it done within 2 weeks. It has now been over 2 months. The movers were great, but the admins were not responsive with returning the money they have overcharged me. I have filed a complaint through BBB and will need to go through small claims court next. EDIT: got paid back after 2 months and the complaint to the BBB, updated to 3 stars since the actual moving service was good, but the burden was all on me for a returning the money.
