Read some helpful reviews of Public Storage at 1161 South Higley Road, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

This place was great. I had to switch units several times because of moving stuff in and out but they were helpful the entire time. Dave was always a pleasure to work with. We’re leaving the state but would recommend this place for people. ... Read more

I had a great experience at Public Storage, and I have to give a special shoutout to Dave! He was incredibly helpful, professional, and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. From answering all my questions to making sure I got exactly what I needed, Dave went above and beyond. It’s rare to find someone who genuinely cares about customer service like he does. If you’re looking for storage and want a hassle-free experience, this is definitely the place to go—ask for Dave! ... Read more
Keawe R. - 10 April 2026
I had a fantastic experience with Public Storage, and I want to give a special shoutout to Dave, the manager. From the moment I walked in, Dave was professional, friendly, and genuinely helpful. He took the time to answer all my questions, made sure I got the right unit for my needs, and explained everything clearly with no pressure. The facility itself is clean, well-maintained, and feels very secure, which gave me a lot of peace of mind leaving my belongings there. It’s obvious that Dave takes pride in running a top-notch operation and truly cares about his customers. If you’re looking for storage and want a place where customer service still matters, I highly recommend this location. Thanks again to Dave for making the whole process smooth and stress-free! ...

Normally I wouldn't go out of my way for this but this guy named Dave deserves all the praise in the world for his patience he had with my dad with answering all of his questions and helping with getting him set up online. My dad isn't very good with technology and is a little slow to learn but I'm glad he was there. My dad hasn't stopped singing his praises since then since no one really has the patience for him. So Dave if you see this, thank you so much for helping him and the world needs more people like you! ... Read more
Ryan - 16 March 2026
Online reservation was super easy. The unit was ready the next day with the lock in the unit. Had a little trouble with the door and lock initially (first time using a storage unit) but Dave was extremely helpful and got me taken care of. 10/10 customer service at the Higley/202 location. Location is clean, well lit, and well maintained! ... Read more
Ashton C. - 8 March 2026
First timer! Had trouble with the lock and called the support line on the app. Dave picked up right away and came down to help me. Super pleasant and helpful. The place is really clean too. I noticed him stopping and picking up any trash … as I was leaving I saw another employee outside picking up trash. Feel good about leaving my stuff at a place where you see the employees caring! ...

Leanne M. - 26 February 2026
Bee with Public Storage for about 2-3 years on and off. They are hands down the most accessible and most reliable storage place. I’ve had no issues and when in need they are there to assist. I came by today and Dave was standing by ready to help out offering guidance to equipment and checking on our day. So grateful! ... Read more
Savannah R. - 15 February 2026
Debbie went above and beyond to help me. Her positive energy and genuine love for her job truly show. She made me feel so welcome and comfortable from the moment I walked in. The facility was super clean, and she was incredibly sweet making sure I got the right size unit at the right price. This was the best customer service I’ve experienced in Arizona. Thank you so much, Debbie! ... Read more
INDIRA K. - 29 January 2026
I was recently laid off from my job as an air traffic controller, so I wasn't really paying attention when we packed up to move. Apparently my autistic son had used several boxes of bandaids as opposed to packing tape-well, this didn't travel well. Thank God for Lynn! When she found me, my son and I were basically taped together trying to put our shipping boxes back to a usable state. Thinking quickly, Lynn was able to detangle us and also demonstrated the correct way to apply the tape. She was also very kind to my wife who was just staring at the sun, weeping uncontrollably. This was NOT one of the finer moments for Karl Vonasch and family. Again, I can't say how helpful, and pleasant, and patient Lynn was throughout this hideous ordeal. She even gave us directions to a great restaurant and water park! If I was running things over there, Lynn would be getting a raise! ... Read more

Stopped by and rented a unit today, and Lynn was very professional, showed us the units, and worked out a great price. The place is very clean, and I would recommend any1 who is looking to open a storage unit. lynn is wonderful and very friendly ... Read more

My mother spoke with Taylor this afternoon regarding the last rental rate increase. My Mom (actual account holder) has been calling nonstop for the manager and she has never returned my mother's call, however after speaking with Taylor, she is trying to work on the situation at hand that was presented to her. She stated that she would contact her before or around 2:30 pst to advise her if she can get the rental rate decrease approved. She has been more helpful to my mom then the actual manager of the location and thats says alot about who they hire. (Sometimes it's needed for people to get another job and let others shine) Just letting Public Storage Know that Taylor is doing an excellent job and she should be replaced in that Managerial position and maybe the current manager needs to be brought back down to sales associate. I will keep you updated on the progress as soon as i get back a response from Taylor. ... Read more

Extremely poor customer service and follow up. The front desk is not routinely tended to, meaning if you need to transfer your belongings from one unit to another, or need assistance of any kind while renting here, there's a slim chance you'll be responded to in a timely fashion. The ONLY attentive employee here is the manager, whose name is Lynn. However, Lynn's authority is limited, she's unable to handle escalated issues. Therefore when Lynn has days off, NOTHING in this office gets handled properly. No amount of calls, voicemails, nor relayed msgs via other employees gains a response! I recommend storing your belongings elsewhere. ... Read more
Angel H. - 4 February 2025
Great location and easy to use. Reason for two stars is the lack of customer service. No one answers the phone, this includes the online chat. They charged my card twice for rent and so far trying to fix it has surely been an uphill battle. ... Read more
Daniel P. - 2 January 2025
We had a fantastic experience at Public Storage thanks to Lynn! She was incredibly helpful and made the process of finding a new storage unit seamless. Lynn took the time to understand our needs and helped us find the perfect unit size that suited our needs. Her friendly and professional demeanor made the entire experience stress-free. The following day, we experienced some account issues with the app, but Kathy was available on-site and promptly resolved everything. Her efficiency and outstanding customer service were greatly appreciated. We highly recommend Public Storage, especially with team members like Lynn and Kathy, who truly go above and beyond to assist customers! Let me know if you'd like any more changes! ... Read more

This particular storage facility provides self storage units of different sizes, ranging from 25 to 300 square feet. Space is not an issue! If you have more belongings to store, or simply bulkier items or even vehicles, you should go for larger storage units.

You already know how much stuff you need to put in self storage, so figuring out the unit size you need is the next step. Smaller units such as 5'x5' or 5'x10' spaces can usually be filled with the amount of items you would normally store in a closet: a few chairs and lamps, sports equipment, garden tools and some boxes.

Moving on to larger sizes, imagine the 10'x10' and 10'x15' units as similar to a bedroom or a living room – larger pieces of furniture, sturdier equipment and bicycles can fit here. Finally, a 10'x20' unit has enough space for the contents of a 3-bedroom house, while the larger 10'x30' space easily accommodates the contents of a loaded semi-truck.

Monthly prices for units offered by Public Storage - 1161 South Higley Road start from $23 and can go up to $320 for larger spaces.

Accessibility and quickness are key when it comes to storage, so drive-up storage units are generally regarded as very convenient. Pull your car right up to your storage space, load, unload, and you're good to go! However, if you're mostly storing temperature-sensitive items, you should rather consider indoor storage units.

Climate-controlled units maintain consistent temperatures and humidity levels all year round, making them perfect for all your sensitive items. Moisture and varying temperatures can damage a whole host of things, and that is why a lot of people choose to use climate-controlled units to store items like wooden furniture, electronics, artwork, documents and photographs, collectibles, antiques, etc. If the belongings you're storing are important to you, you should consider renting a climate-controlled unit.
