This is the email received after I informed Public Storage we were removing our belongings and cancelling our storage.
Cynthia W.

We have had our storage unit at the facility for a really long time. Their customer service has slowly become worse and worse. We finally have had enough and the situation below was the icing on the cake. I do not recommend anyone placing their belongings at this facility. They think only about the rent they collect and could care less if you stuff is protected or not. I received an email on July 14th advising my unit was unsecure. I of course freaked out and we immediately went to our unit with a new lock. When we arrived our unit had our lock on it. The office was closed so I decided to call the next day and see why we got the email. Called and spoke to Allison. I told her what happened and she explained that it was a generic email sent out when the lock doesn't fit their criteria. Mind you we have had the same lock FOR YEARS. Allison also explained that the employee (whose name is Jason), was supposed to call us BEFORE they sent that email. That way we knew what it was about. I informed Allison at that time we were not renewing our contract ( which was at month to month at this point) and would be removing all of our stuff by 7/31. Allison apologized and said she would speak to management about the employee not following protocol. She also offered a reduce monthly rate if we kept our storage. I explained we already made our decision but thank you for the offer. A few minutes after I got off the phone, I received another generic email asking us to not cancel and offering a reduce rate. Fast forward to today. We went to our storage to move stuff out. We get their, get a cart, get to our storage and there is another padlock on our unit with ours, blue in color. We had been locked out of our unit. Now I'm beyond pissed. We go back to the office and there are 3 people working. An older white haired lady, a younger woman and a middle aged man. We tell them why we were there and the manager gave us the reasoning that they were protecting our unit with the extra lock. The lock they put on was flimsy compared to ours and defeated the purpose. Then Jason started talking. He put the lock on because we didn't change our lock to one they wanted. I said we told Allison that we weren't replacing the lock because we were moving our stuff out. Then the manager pipes up yes, I see all that in your account notes. So, tell me, why couldn't Jason see the same notes? Also found out that Jason HAD NOT been talked to even though the manager was made aware of him not following protocol. This facility is a mess. The only competent employee is Allison and she deserves better than this company.

See all

I love the customer service here. I can pay online but I choose to go in the office to pay my bill because Margret is so awesome.

When I first moved to a new residence in Antioch CA, I stored all my stuff that I couldn't fit into…read moremy new location at Acorn Self storage in 2004. The managers were very professional and helpful in getting me setup with a locker. When I re-arranged the available space in my new residence, I discovered that I didn't need as much storage as I did when I first moved in. I decided to relocate my needs for a self storage locker to another location that was much closer to my home in Antioch. I advised the Acorn managers of my plans and they were, again, very helpful in my relocating to the space in Antioch. In 2014, a new management company took over where I had my locker in Antioch. As I felt the conditions had changed in my Antioch location for storage and I was no longer comfortable staying in the Antioch location, I returned to Acorn Self Storage looking for a small locker . Again, I was treated like family and took note of the very clean condition of the property and the security monitoring of the entire location. I was impressed by the operation still being top quality and customer service I received when I made the transition back to Acorn. I would recommend Acorn Self Storage to anyone that I know who may be looking for a great place to store what they need to store.

The staff at Acorn were more than helpful. Carol didn't mind my questions, and would be so kind…read morehence I was out of town and my belongings were in Pittsburg. Thanks Acorn for your professional s demeanor .
