Read some helpful reviews of Public Storage at 786 Kinnear Road, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

I’ve had a really good experience with First Stop Storage in Columbus, MS. The manager, Madeline Johnson, is professional, helpful, and easy to work with. She made the whole process simple and answered all my questions without any hassle. I rented a 10x10 climate-controlled unit, and the pricing ranged from about $130–$170, which I found reasonable for the quality and security provided. The climate control is a big plus, especially with Mississippi heat — it definitely gives peace of mind knowing my belongings are protected. The facility is clean, secure, and well-maintained. I would definitely recommend First Stop Storage to anyone in the Columbus area looking for reliable storage with great customer service. ... Read more

I belong to a 501C3 charitable organization. Our members are researching storage facility prices as the one we currently have is overpriced. We met with Angela at the Kinnear Public Storage. She was very nice, patient, and informative. It is refreshing to have such good customer service. ... Read more

We rent a unit for our OSU freshman to have a car in Columbus. A short walk to Lincoln Tower & it has saved us a lot of long days in the car taking him back & forth! It has been secure & safe. Pricing is reasonable for Columbus plus they offered a free month at the beginning of our rental. I’ve spoke multiple times to Robert and he’s been great! Super friendly and always on top of everything happing at the facility. Highly recommend for anyone looking for storage options in Columbus near campus. ... Read more

My experience this afternoon was overwhelmingly reassuring considering the troubles I had last night I was not looking forward to coming this morning, but Mrs. Valerie erased all of my anxiety.

The manager tricked me into a contract when I tried to reserve it. I asked him if I can cancel anytime before my move in date and he told me I can just get my money refunded if I do it before my move in date. PLEASE BE AWARE THE ADMIN FEE $29 IS NON REFUNDABLE EVEN WHEN YOU CANCEL IT BEFORE YOUR MOVE IN DATE. Don’t let them get you into the contract before making sure you got the date right. I worked with other companies and they don’t even ask for my credit card when I tried to reserve a storage ... Read more

We have parked our tour van here for many years. It is hard to find secure parking spaces for a tall vehicle! It is conveniently located and we haven't had any issues. Shout out to Jennifer who is really nice and helpful. ... Read more

DO NOT STORE HERE. I signed a lease for 123$ a month in December 2023 and by December 2024 my rent was 249$ a month for a 10x10. No additions or anything was done to improve the property and there's often homeless people sleeping there which did not make me feel secure for my items. The app didn't work for me to make payments or let me in the gate 90% of the time I was there, there's never anyone on property to help you if you can't get the gate to work or help you with anything. When I finally got sick of the app not working and started going in to pay the person at the desk gave me major attitude over it. It's just simply not worth storing here. There's now cars and vans parked along a fence making it hard to leave through that side. They can't even keep their information straight, when I turned in my keys, the lady didn't know that the lock was actually mine (learned later by a manager trying to collect money from me) and clearly had no idea what to do when a tennet vacated. ...

Parker A. - 8 February 2025
Public storage doesn’t allow prorated rents. I either have to pay full month rent or get my account sent to collections for moving out on the 3rd of the month. The location management is great tho. This has nothing to do with them. This is an in general review of public storage as a company. ... Read more
Srimukhi N. - 3 February 2025
In the process of moving out of town but needed a unit for a few weeks. They made me feel really comfortable with leaving my belongings here. They went above and beyond what I could have asked for. Paul was quick to get my questions answered. I'd definitely recommend them. ... Read more

I rented a unit 3 months ago for the first time. This has been the best decision ever!! Amy has went above and beyond with her customer service and kindness. You feel comfortable and safe, you just know your belongings are secure. She keeps the property well lit and maintained. Always available quickly and returned calls within minutes. Highly recommend 10 stars!!!!!!!! ... Read more

Depending on what you need to put away in storage, you can discover there are some things you absolutely need, so make sure you check with the facility manager that you'll find everything you need on site.

This particular storage facility provides self storage units of different sizes, ranging from 25 to 400 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 - 786 Kinnear Road start from $38 and can go up to $248 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.
