Read some helpful reviews of Public Storage at 4100 East Main Street, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

Property very easy to navigate, automatic doors work great and secure property nicely. Location is easy to get in and out of, and unit was clean and ready to go. There is no counter person, a video kiosk is in the front and you can talk to a real person, calling the phone number to reach the property manager of the facility nets you a recording most of the time, yet setting it all up online makes the event smooth. ...

Mold!!!! After a year and a half of storing my entire three bedroom home worth of furniture in public storage St. Charles, we moved it out only to find everything was covered in mold. Our beautiful $2000 couch had mold all over it. Our mattresses, dressers, and all textiles. It was absolutely devastating for our family. We paid $4700 to store our items at public storage only for it all to be destroyed. What a waste of money. When we talked to the manager Alberto, he only offered to refund us one month’s rent and to remove the large items for us so we didn’t have to pay to have that done. Our Public Storage insurance only covers up to $250 per item, so it’s a total financial loss for our family as our furniture cost much more than that. Public Storage hardly compensated us for such a huge loss, and wouldn’t even accept fault. They basically just said it’s our fault and it can happen unfortunately. We are beyond disappointed with this service, the management and how things were handled. They will also raise your rent without warning. When you call to ask why they are very rude and tell you to just read the small print in your contract. It essentially says rent can be raised at any time, so be prepared for that. We also had to deal with a very rude employee after staying past 9 pm the day we moved out. It took us hours and hours to clean the mold and sort through everything, which meant we couldn’t leave until 11 pm. The man we spoke to when trying to leave was reprimanding us for staying late. We tried to explain to him that we had to deal with mold all day, and he just continued to be rude. If you want your items to return to you the way you left them, I would not recommend this storage unit. They ruined everything we own, and we could be facing a potential health hazard as well. My son is a liver transplant patient and mold could be deadly to him. We had no option but to load up our POD with what we could salvage, and hope when we arrive in Arizona and unpack our most irreplaceable, special items aren’t ruined as well. Don’t waste your money, go somewhere else. ... Read more

In my opinion they get you in at a low rate and then jack the prices up quickly. They raised the prices SUBSTANTIALLY during covid to a burdensome level. For what? Corporate greed? The people that worked there were nice but I’ll never do business with the corporation again. ... Read more

Don’t bother paying extra for a “climate controlled” storage unit. The AC doesn’t work and after 3 complaints the issue is still not resolved. It would be easy to show the issue to an employee or manager if anyone worked there, but it’s difficult to do that when the only employee is behind a video screen. ... Read more
Christian Y. - 22 August 2025
I’d give 0 stars if I could. Why did my storage unit price go up from $120 to $290 in like less than 2 years? Did not consent to that. I’m getting out of here. It’s not like there were any improvements or anything to make this increase make sense. Disgusting. Do not do business here. Also stop deleting your negative reviews. I will keep reposting mine if it gets deleted again. ... Read more

Thank you to Lori one of the property managers. She is the best!! She was willing to come out to the facility for me to look at as I am a first timer in rent storage. This was not even Lori’s location that she manages. Lori explained everything and was able to answer all of my questions and was able to help me with my concerns! Thank you Lori!!! ... Read more

Piper at Public Storage is an absolute gem! She made what could have been a stressful move ridiculously easy. Friendly, efficient, and actually cares about helping customers. If you need storage and want someone who knows what they’re doing, ask for Piper. ... Read more

I was very disappointed with my experience at Public Storage. The facility is acceptable, not top of the line but fine. I chose this location as an affordable but slightly less convenient option for myself. I work abroad for long periods of time so having an affordable long term storage option was important to me. I signed my agreement at $183. Only three months later they attempted to raise my rent to $221, to which I complained and they postponed the raise. Three months later they raised it anyway. Then three months later they wanted to raise it AGAIN to $274. In well under a year they had raised my rent by 50%, which now exceeded the rate at other nicer and more convenient options, with no signs of slowing down. Luckily I happened to be in town, but ended up spending my precious time at home moving to a different storage facility. This is standard practice for this company. Not one employee answered the phone when I called, they only replied to messages. When I finally did speak to someone, they didn't empathize with me at all and simply told me that is what I agreed to. It's a predatory business model, and I fell for it. I hope whoever reads this won't. ... Read more

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.

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.
