Tricia was awesome, she worked with me to lower my monthly rate. And when there was an issue, she went the extra mile to make things right.

Placed my items in public storage for three months, the last month the price went up. Upon picking up my items, my things were covered with rat pee and poop. After moving my items out, I was charged the following month due to me not properly "moving out" by not taking the lock (public storage lock- not usable or useful to me). Payment was non negotiable and had to be paid even though items were moved out before. When i explained my situation, the office clerk did nothing but mentioned collections and my credit being affected if not paid. I ended up paying another months payment along with the late fee. Of the items I retrieved from the storage, 70% percent had to be thrown away. These were my actual, priceless items. They're irreplaceable. Due to me not having insurance, nothing was covered and so I'm just without. The reason why I did not get insurance this time was because I previously had my items stored and the same thing happened and insurance didn't do anything about it. I transferred storage places and another time I had my unit broken into and insurance/police were intolerable (even though I was calm and patient during the whole ordeal). Upon moving back to this location, I'm already dealing with a lot of things and this put a damper on my life. The photos don't do justice as to what I had to deal with at this location. read more

The staff here are friendly, but that's about the only positive thing I can say. This facility has a serious rat problem, and it's clearly not being addressed. No matter how nice the employees are, it doesn't make up for poor maintenance and lack of proper pest control. I wouldn't trust storing anything of value here until they get this issue under control. read more

Moved to another company. Constantly dirty. Front entrance to my building had garbage in it several times. Homeless and sketchy people either parked or inside the building. The security doors were consistently propped open so anyone could walk in. On move out day there was a very strong smell of urine coming from a unit. read more

Still infested. We all need to get together and sue them for damages!! The insurance we pay for only covers $250. Ridiculous!! read more

This storage facility is absolutely disgusting-my unit was crawling with rats. They chewed through boxes, destroyed my belongings, and left droppings everywhere. Management clearly doesn't care, I wouldn't trust them with a single thing again. read more

Classic bait and switch. Signed up for $86/month and after three months they raised the rate to $126. A cool 47% increase. They probably figure that most people will just keep paying and won't bother to move. Not me. Look elsewhere. read more

The rat infestation is a huge problem. There is rat feces everywhere in the hallways. We had no food all wrapped furniture. The rats ate through our washer hose. See photo. read more

Public Storage - Washer - eaten through hose by rats!!! - Self Storage Near Me - Modesto, California

This location is exceptionaly​ clean and most of the units are inside and climate controlled I love that! Kim was wonderful and explained everything to me thoroughly and promptly. They offer a wide variety of storage unit sizes for you every need. I only paid one dollar for the first month's rent which is awesome! They do charge a one time $29 service fee that every storage place charges though. If you are looking for a reasonably priced, conveniently located, super clean, storage facility with friendly staff and a welcoming environment, I 100% recommend Public Storage On Sylvan Ave in Modesto, Ca. read more

I would rate this facility a zero. The whole place is rat and bug infested and they deceive you. When you move in they make you get insurance and say your items will be protected. However, the insurance doesn't cover rats and rodents destroying your stuff. My bed alone to replace it. It's almost three grand. The insurance only covers $250. So Most of my items are going to the garbage without the ability to replace them because the insurance isn't worth paying for. And then they raise the rent every 6 months to a year almost $100 and say it's because their units are in demand. If you can find a different storage facility I would suggest you really go and storage your items there never here read more

Please please do not rent here. Not only was my storage shed broken into by the homeless people who live in the bldgs at night, the rats got the rest of my stuff. I literally lost everything. Their insurance company is a complete joke asking you for paperwork on your stuff you know you don't have anymore. This place should be shut down. The homeless that are in there at night piss and shit everywhere. If you like your things....don't rent here. read more

Our unit was covered in rat feces which apparently is a known issue at this location. We moved out early this month and during the 2 evenings emptying out, I must have met 5-6 others moving out due to the same reason. Please check your existing unit to see if you have rat urine and feces around, we had just renewed for the month and there was no refund or coverage that would be given. We kept no food, just comic books and collectibles in it and spent a weekend disinfecting everything before moving to another storage location. read more

Great price, easy sign on via the web. The lady in the office was a great help. Thank you so much. read more

Although service was good, the office was closed on Saturday, November 18, 2023, which was supposed to be open. Was not able to turn in keys. This presents a problem since I am headed back to Utah. I had a climate controlled unit, which worked well. Staff was friendly and extremely helpful during the move in process. Issues: 1st: They have a real rat problem. When unloading everything out of the unit there was rat waste all over. Luckily enough when we did pack up everything we sealed it very well. 2nd: Pricing, jumped almost 100.00 from last year, for a 10 x 20 climate controlled unit. We found a 10 x 20 close to my brothers house, so he could start clearing it out for under half on what I was paying at Public Storage. This are the reasons for the 3 star rating. read more

Rats everywhere! Do not rent from here! We have thousands of dollars of damage due to the insane rat infestation that is going on here. They've known about this issue for months and are not doing anything to get rid of the problem. I was given no notice prior to moving in that there is an ACTIVE infestation. My stuff has been there for a month and a half and is COVERED in rat feces and urine. STAY AWAY! Corporate is aware of the issue and told the front desk employees they didn't want to hear about it anymore. They've left them to deal with this mess and the employees are distraught. Everyone that has a storage unit at this facility has been affected by this and there are so many people who are unaware of the sh** storm they are going to have to deal with once they get to their unit. read more

I am in Modesto, California, and I was in need of a storage unit. The office staff was very professional and kind and was quick to offer me a unit.

I definitely would recommend this place on Sylvan Ave in Modesto, Ca to anyone wanting good quality, safe storage. read more

Rebekah and Kim Amazing to work with on my storage size. Kim explain about code gates and door pass code. Also the grounds are very clean and safe . Just a real good place to do business. I highly recommend if you need a storage. Thank you Rebekah and Kim read more

DISGUSTING! We've had a unit here for the last year+ and we now find rat feces and urine all over our unit. The rats are running along the open grating above the units and spreading filth all over everyone's belongings. You can see rat feces outside of units as well from when other renters have kicked or swept theirs out. Employees are doing their best, but their bosses don't seem to care. We've had to throw out multiple items. Do NOT rent here. You will be forking over your hard-earned money in order to have your belongings destroyed. read more

The easiest fastest way I have ever used an app . And the effortless process is great!

Quick and easy sign up online. The facility is really clean and the security is good.

Very disappointed when I went to this site to open my storage for the first time I was shocked to see just walking into the building before I had even gotten to my storage yet there were HUGE rat droppings everywhere. It wasn't just one or two it was in the middle of the aisles, I opened my unit and again I saw piles of rat droppings at this point. I chose to not move my things there as I was also greeted by a woman in complete distraught fuse to her child's baby pictures destroyed due to rat infestation. This needs to be addressed immediately I called the property manager she seemed more interested in getting me off the phone as to finding a solution called corporate customer service and they were great ! Currently in the process of being refunded! read more

Avoid these thieves like the plague!!!! They advertise low prices and within a year they raised the cost by almost $50 twice!!!! Do not fall for their false advertisements which are meant to lure you to this location! They are only after your money and service is horrible too! The first ad was $99, about 4 months later they raised it to $145 and now a year later it's $199!!!!! Just stay away from this location and save yourselves the grief! Now I have to find another place and move... don't make my mistake! read more

This location sucks ass! I want to close my account and my storage unit, but apparently I have to contact the property manager to do that. However, the property manager never answers the fucking phone and nobody is ever available at the unit for customer service. Also, my couch wreaks of rat poison! I will put a stop payment on my credit card if I do not get a response, and I will sue them for money for a new couch! read more

I do not recommend this place!!!!! Our stuff was covered in rat feces, urine, and cockroaches. Property manager named Kim was very rude and condescending when we complained. read more

Decently priced, it's a nice area and the storages arent torn up, it's near a fancy savemart that looks like it's trying to be a whole foods. Rebeka was really nice and helpful every time I talked to her. I only removed 1 star because their app for payments suck, go in to pay for it don't rely on the app because it takes a full week for the payment to even go though. read more

Rebecca was wonderful. She was so helpful. We had a issue with the owner of the building and gave a 79yr old woman a 24hr notice to clear the breeze way. It's in my name but this lady has a heart of gold giving the homeless bags of items. Thank you read more

I have always rented from public storage no mater what state I was in. But this location absolutely sucks!!!! I did my rental online and no one has ever tried to contact me. I message them and left several voicemails for the manager but got no reply. I went to the location and couldn't get in and couldn't find anyone to help me.. This location blows.... read more

Very easy to obtain a storage unit with no hassle, the location is easy to find and very clean and safe. Booked a unit within hour and was ready for me to move my belongings the next day with no problem. The price is also fair and gates and doors are easy to access with app or you can just use your code. read more

Easy online rental. Tech assist entry. Very clean and secure.

Everyone at Public Storage made my move in smooth and I want to give all of u KUDOS for a job well done. I will be recommending my family n friends to rent Storage units here. read more

public storage can no longer be a trusted company! they have found a way to rip us off like every other greedy corporation. don't trust them. if you are moving on the first to a new place they will charge you for the full month on the first and don't prorate. if you want to move out on the last day of the month it won't let you. it forces you to move out 2 days before.the end of the month -you can't stay until the 31st. greedy!!!!!! Scammers!!!! And every time I've been to sylvan facility in Modesto there's trash everywhere! read more

Very easy online access. Very friendly staff and good customer service. Price is very reasonable. Clean storage and in good location. I will recommend it to anyone. read more

Love this place. Was able to sign up, get the app, enter the facility, and store my stuff without human assistance. Like a science fiction movie inside -- climate controlled, spotlessly clean, and totally automated. There are actually four separate security doors, but the phone based automation works perfectly. read more

Cleanest storage place I've ever stored my belongings in. Norma the Manager was very helpful and contactless renting is A plus.
