Customers fed up with price hikes at storage facilities 

Public Storage is again raising our rent started at $165.00 now a year later $273.00 in Denver CO - this must stop - price gauging!!!

We're paying $275/mo for a 10x10. They're $75-$80/mo everywhere else.

PUBLIC STORAGE IS THE WORST STORAGE COMPANY. if you are late two weeks they put your stuff in auctions, and sell it the beginning of the mew month. PUBLIC STORAGE GET IN YOU with $1 plus fees then add several fees to it, then not even 5 month they raised the fees 20 dollars, they are CROOKS.

GREED BAD STORAGE WHY STAY?

Dam I was thinking it was just me …so y’all rent storage went up too ok ok dang public storage went up 386$ on me …so ok this what they do every year… ok once I pay this month I’m out for good wtf lol yup they got me with the 1$ lol aha dammm

You voted for it. So stop complaining!!

Self storage is not usually a long term rental! If a person chooses to make it be long term then this is what will happen. Rent goes up! You expect it in an apartment- why is it so hard to fathom when it comes to self storage?

Most people do not NEED storage. If you have so much stuff, you can not fit it inside your home then YOU'RE the problem. People need to be smarter. Or at least get out once you learn their policy

Yes, they sure take advantage of folks not just in MD but nationwide.

It is greedy but also discriminatory. Tip: when you get the rent increases check to see what the (not new customer discounted) price of the same size and attributes (in/outside etc) is at the same facility. If their stated price (not the introductory price nor the web discounted price) but the regular rate is much less than your raised price, then either move with in the same facility to another and cheaper same size unit, or find a competitor nearby with same kind of unit (I found competitors charging half the PS price) or tell the manager and district manager you need them to adjust your price back to their quoted price for other customers. This is a PS scam that counts on lazy customers who put up with their greed. The greed is a corporate policy intended to abuse their customers. PS does not respect its customers and does not deserve our business.

This is nothing!!! I got 2 units at life storage Benbrook Texas a few months ago. 1st month $190 2nd month $190 30 units got broken into including one of mine. After the 2nd payment. 3rd month $350 4th month $350 And I just got a letter today that in 30 days its going to be $510. I'm fed up. I'm getting ready to make some noise.

Please stay on this! I have the same size unit and they keep raising the price and we are getting nothing in return. It price gauging. TY

Public Storage SUCKS. $80-206 in ~2-3 years and recently tried to up it again to 270. All they'll say is move your stuff to another unit to get an intro price, won't actually give you an intro price. Shitty business model to treat long term customers with no thankfulness whatsoever. Just another examples of corporate greed - welcome to America, home of the free to price gouge, land of the brave to inflate.

i think it's important and it's time that we put a face to the name. we all hate these storage companies for their gouging, yet the executives can walk by you in the grocery store and you would have no clue. I no longer have an issue with prime storage employees, i have an issue with Prime Storage's owner Robert J. Moser.

Everything I had in Public Storage was stolen, things since high school, 20 years in the Air Force, 20 years of marriage. I had the unit for 10 years, they raised my rent every February then again in October. They told me about the raise on the day before it was due. The raise was to $526 a month. I contacted a lawyer who said Public Storage is a non regulatory business, which means they can do anything they want. They dont answer to anyone. There is no insurance carrier, there is no cameras watching, except employees cars at the office, and there is no rodent control. This is a business bordering on criminal practice.

Yes my storage unit from extra space storage 10×10 more than doubled after 3mos from 70 to 154..temple hills md

THIS IS DISTURBING!!! I know they sell these units at auction so it is gross business practice!

This is going on everywhere. What’s the secret here? It’s something more to this.

During the pandemic, I had to move and got storage to at least give myself some space to do the move. 10'x10' in CA. That was two years ago at about 270, and now... approaching 500... I was expecting something reasonable and increases drop over time, maybe a cap... is there no end?

Ok thank you wow google they shall not have 5* this is wild smh poor George yo !

It happened to me last year at one of the public storage locations on Baltimore National Pike. My price hike notification was sent to me not even six months of having my items placed in my storage unit. **I will admit the property manager was very respectful professional and assist me with keeping my original price for my unit for 3 months I considerate it being called an waiver. After the 3 months past my storage fee went from $153 to $203 I only paid the amount of $203 fee for 2 months afterwards To be honest I was grateful that I had the opportunity to remove all my personal items out of the storage unit at the end of 2022
