So disappointed with this facility. I'm giving 2 stars because when I have reached employees by…read morephone they have been kind and helpful. On my move in day, I was told I could arrive at 9:30am to register and get into the storage unit. No one was at the facility when I arrived (and no sign saying they stepped away), and after calling multiple times and leaving messages I was unable to get in touch anyone at the store. It has been over 40 minutes of trying to access the store, and now the movers are waiting (and I'm paying them by the hour). I had to send the movers to a different drop off point so that I didn't have to pay them to wait for someone at CubeSmart to show up. This made an already stressful move even more stressful.

CubeSmart has turned out to be outrageously expensive. After only 6 months, they raised my rate by…read more$53 a month. The rate I was originally quoted was their "regular " rate -- not a teaser rate. Apparently they do employ "teaser rates". There are better, less costly storage options in the area.

During what is an undoubtedly stressful time in the midst of transition, I wanted to make sure I…read moreexpressed how thankful I am to have worked with Rob at this particular Public Storage facility. I've lived in a lot of place and in a variety of states and I've never been so impressed by how efficient, mindful, kind and honest Rob was during my move in. Also, the facility is perfectly situated, clean and easy to get around, especially with the dollies readily available for use. Quite honestly, I barely got any sleep last night in anticipation of what I thought would be a stressful and annoying move-in. Too bad I lost all that sleep because on the contrary to what I expected, this was the easiest, most pain-free process ever and I couldn't be more pleased (and surprised!). 5 stars well-deserved. Thanks a million!!!

In all honesty, if I could give this place negative stars, I would. Our unit, which had absolutely…read moreZERO food items, has been ravaged with mouse activity. Mattress ruined, couch ruined, clothing ruined, furniture ruined, boxes ruined, etc. Mouse droppings are literally EVERYWHERE. On top of that, the elevator hardly works, and the climate control piece is a myth. Just yesterday it was well above 80 degrees inside the unit. This has just been a flat out traumatic experience and we're now forced to start from scratch with everything being ruined just before we move into a townhouse. Also, to top it off, vermin coverage is only a measly 200 dollars or less. So all in all, PLEASE STAY FAR AWAY FROM THIS PLACE.

Rent elsewhere. Extra Space Storage is overpriced. If you do happen to find a reasonable rate, you…read morecan be guaranteed that it will increase after 4 months. Not a minimal increase either. Don't say you weren't warned. Scroll down and look at the other reviews. In some cases, you can expect an increase of 75-100%.Yes, after your 4th month. They have onsite parking, which is great. The manager told me that if I was ever in the area that I could park there and run my errands. Great perk, right? Not so much when you get back to your car and they called and had it towed. $135 to get it back. The tow company confirmed that it was indeed an employee of Extra Space Storage who called and had the car towed. Thanks! There are a lot of other storage options in the area. Do yourself a favor and explore them and rent any of them.

This place is a circus…read more I waited in a dirty, empty reception area for 20 minutes before "Store Manager" Selam Giday walked through the front door carrying a plate of take out food, wearing yoga pants, no uniform or name tag, and angrily began to 'assist' me from behind the desk. Perhaps I interrupted her break? She seemed really irritated by the one question I asked in response to her asking me if I had any questions, rolling her eyes and mumbling under her breath openly throughout our entire interaction. In the middle of the process of me renting a storage space, she literally ran out of the store to yell at someone that she thought was about to park nearby. I thought about ducking out right then but honestly I was afraid she'd chase me down yelling too. Predictably, when the charges hit my card 2 days later it was a different price than I was quoted by Selam. I returned to the store with my contract and the paperwork printed and signed in that very location showing the discrepancy, only to be told by a large bearded kid behind the desk that he "was only a part-time employee" and that he "couldn't help me." Wild!

Public Storage is well-known for its practice of attracting new customers with low introductory…read morerates, only to implement significant and persistent rent increases annually. Their strategy relies on the high cost and inconvenience of moving; they know that once the cost begins to squeeze your budget, relocating all of your belongings is a major barrier. The rate of their rental cost increase is alarming. My rent for a 10'x20' unit increased from $337/mo to a projected $722/mo in approximately 2.5 years--a 114% increase! However, I have been able to avoid the most recent rent hike, and it was surprisingly simple. I called their customer service line and calmly explained the situation. I pointed out the rates for an identical unit in my same building is available for less than half of what I was currenlty being charged. I also mentioned the more competitive rates of the nearby storage facilities. I didn't have to get upset or even threaten to leave. The mere act of calling and presenting the facts was enough. The customer service rep was courtious and gave me a six-month reprieve from the rental increase. Storage units are a necessary part of life for many people. I hope this helps if you find yourself in a similar situation.

I moved this past weekend and hired Bookstore Movers for the job. I can honestly say I was blown…read moreaway by the professionalism, efficiency, and expertise of the moving crew. I worked with a different moving company 2 years ago that left me scarred for life with how rude and unprofessional they were. I ended up having to finish the job myself (moving my giant couch up four flights of stairs), so when I knew I was moving again, I did my due diligence and sought out a few quotes. Another company quoted me almost $800 and required a 3 hour minimum for the job!! $800 seemed steep and I knew the job wouldn't take that long... Along came Bookstore Movers who quoted me a reasonable $470 minimum for two hours of work and a maximum of $680 for 3.5 hours of work (price breakdown: $140 per hour with 2 hour min. plus a $190 truck fee). I received a quote within a few hours of requesting it. There was no deposit required and the date was booked. I received detailed emails leading up to the move about FAQs, tips for a seamless move, and the names of my crew including contact info for the crew lead. Abdul (crew lead), Niiwayo "Y.O", and Milly were SO fast and friendly. They wrapped every single item with care in drop cloths and got to moving immediately. Despite the 90 degree heat and a total of five flights of stairs, the job was finished in 2 hours. I was SO impressed. I was so traumatized by my last move that I literally had to walk away while they moved the couch in but before I knew it, I got a text from my boyfriend telling me they had fit it through the door and our living room was all set up. I was so relieved and happy to work with them. If and when we move again, (hopefully not anytime soon, lol), I will 100% be contacting Bookstore Movers... and you should too!
