Read some helpful reviews of Public Storage at 20 East University Drive, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

Maleigha was very helpful. I rented a unit with her assistance. She took the time to answer several questions before I was comfortable with my renting decision. **September '25 update** Shanena the building manager is great and very helpful. If it were based on her alone, the rating would still be 5 stars. I am changing my rating to bring awareness for potential renters about Public Storage's greed policy. I had completely moved out on the first of the month and a message was left due to the holiday. Public Storage will still charge the entire month's rent, while not providing you access to the unit for the rest of the month. They can essentially collect rent twice from two different renters for the same month. They are covered by the signed policy, but to offer no prorate or leniency option is very greedy. Any future renters should be aware of this. ... Read more

We placed a reservation to come in & view the unit to get an idea of the size & space before we can confirm the order. Within few min. Shanena reached out to us which was very helpful. She sounded very courteous & helpful, so we confidently booked an appointment to visit the facility. She happily greeted us upon arrival, showed us to the unit & explained us how the reservations/cancellations work. She made us feel comfortable as this is the first time ever we are planning to do the move ourselves. She understood our hesitation and provided many available options with other locations as well. Great job !! Kudos to her. ... Read more

This particular storage facility provides self storage units of different sizes, ranging from 20 to 375 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.

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.
