What customers are saying

4.4/5 - 65 Reviews

Read some helpful reviews of Public Storage at 840 Cottman Avenue, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

I rented a space online, because that is how you get the best deals, but when I went to see my space, I had to enter my code to get through the gate, to get in the building, and to activate the elevator. They do not have carts or dollies to assist. I knew this arrangement would not work, so I spoke with the property manager, a floater, Shana. She informed me that even though I paid for the space a day before, and never touched the seal, all transactions are final, and I could not get a refund. I realized I did want a space, but at a different location. Shana went above and beyond to help me transfer to another location. She even spoke with a regional manager, who helped make the transfer happen too. The 5 stars is for her, because I was not happy before that. The facility is clean, but it wasn't a fit for me. ...

jose v. - 18 September 2025
So the first encounter I had with the property manager. "Odyssey" was brutal from the beginning. Very rude. So I had an issue with a payment and I had fixed it and for some reason there was a lock on my unit for 3 days until after I fixed the payment and they were too lazy to take off the lock I had even called into customer service and told them I was going to remove it myself. So now about 2 weeks after I pay up until December and am told I owe a balance and to come out of my unit. So I dont know how thats possible but I believe I may be getting charged for the lock. Ok. Fine but the disrespectful attitude, the indirect comments, the unprofessionalism makes me wonder how they vet the people that work here. They act like slum lords. I would never. Ever ever recommend this place to anyone. Infact runaway while u can!!!!! ... Read more

Marilyn L. - 25 March 2025
There was a lot of confusion about the space we were trying to rent at first when i was booking online, but the clerk at the front desk, Cynthia, got everything straightened out for us. She went above and beyond to get us a good space that would accommodate all of our needs. She worked diligently and partially through her break to make sure we was satisfied before we left. If it wasn't for her, we was definitely getting ready to choose another storage company. Thank you Cynthia for your dedication, patience, and your professionalism. It's hard to find that nowadays in the customer service field. ... Read more

This particular storage facility provides self storage units of different sizes, ranging from 25 to 320 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 - 840 Cottman Avenue start from $10 and can go up to $199 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.
