Wow after reading the Yelp reviews here and the reviews they control on their website while on hold for 40 min trying to reach a district manager.My next move is to sell my Public Storage stock that I purchased in 1995 at the IPO, when this company founder and management cared not just about profit and outward appearances, they knew middle income Americans and Veterans paid those profits. So this review like the others will get buried by some phony or old review like the Mark Neuhart review from 2016 that was showing as recent over the heart wrenching review from 4/7/23 by the person that was threatened with loitering by management. This fits the authoritarian rule that the manager seems to believe is her right or that she is the Granddaughter of B Wayne Hughes and doesn't answer to stockholders or the board of directors. I use the facility as an overflow for my Good Will habit and jokingly refer to it as junk, so rarely is it a necessity or emergency for me to access the facility at 8150 N 24th ave. I won't even bring up the roll up door being broken for 3 months, the elevators being broken or shut off, and staff not present, office locked more than it's open, raising rates and that the NE stairwell has feces and chocolate milkshake smeared from the basement to the 3rd floor and filthy bathrooms are a testament to the managers attitude. Since previous reviews covered most of these. In fact for my first 5 months having my account on autopay with my Amex platinum card I thought the place closed with the sales office and only discovered different when an employee who was always helpful, going above his duties to help asked me to write a google review for him, his name was Cody and he's either moved on or been promoted. So I wait for a district manager to call and will see how far up the chain this attitude goes. My issue is a safety issue and my next complaint will be to Phoenix Fire department since they decided that at 9 PM the auto system that runs the elevators and roll up doors and basically eliminates human employees as we seem to be pushing in every business. Doesn't anyone remember The Terminator? Anyway sorry so they don't have a sign posted or a clock, an announcement, email nothing to notify you that at 9:00 sharp you are locked in! The stairwells are locked at all floors except exit that sets off an alarm and costs you a fine. So I show up before 9 and lost track of time and get very poor cell service at the location but when i attempt to leave the system shows locked. Well i'm well rounded with equipment and can drive, fly or sail pretty much anything within reason but they also put some cheesy Amazon ching chong combo lock panel cover over the manual control panel for the roll up door, at this point I'm more than a little pissed, this is a safety/ fire issue, there is no sign or instructions, emergency number, or directions. So I contemplate driving my Tahoe through the big glass roll up, so thats why it was boarded up for 3 months...I think about calling 911 but being a shareholder that's not a good image and takes limited resources away from more important crises. So I proceed to examine and remove the panel lock installed over emergency switch.They have cameras everywhere so all this is recorded,. I assume i will get a call from management tomorrow as the other time before they had this new no notification full lockdown. I was late leaving and had my Dog with me, since i was last to leave removed her leash because i was pushing a big cart full of junk. I left 45 min late and received a call with a message saying i broke the curfew and leash law rules. At this point I decide to clear out the unit. Everything came to a head after being locked in twice replacing the panel without damaging anything I get a call from the manager using her rude tone of voice telling me i'm in violation and they are terminating my lease, I say i'm moving out and what you call curfew violations are safety violations where you locked me in or kidnapped me and a fire hazard. I hang up mad but rent was paid by auto pay on the first so i log in and turn off the auto pay and make a note to be out before the 1st which is today. I go to finish emptying my unit on Saturday the 29th 4 days before rent is due and she has locked me out of system and put a red lock on my unit. So keep the junk sell it or whatever but don't send me a bill for clean up or I'm coming after your job and complaints to Phx Fire, Osha and any other agency, that might take issue with your policy of locking the doors without regard for who may be inside. The trespassing threat was icing on the cake and i will be speaking with California. Someone at corporate better have a talk with this manager before the place is empty. read more
