I highly recommend public storage to anyone in need of extra storage space. I had an issue with my unit and the property manager, Charlie went above and beyond to make me feel seen and heard. I appreciate the way he handled the situation. People do not care what you know until they know how much you care. And based off this experience with him I will always use that specific Hardscrabble location. Thank you, Charlie! ... Read more

Charlie was awesome! Before we exited our Uhaul he asked if we needed help. He was so friendly and nice. We had reserved one of the units online, but once we looked at it we found out it wasn't going to be big enough. Charlie worked with us to get a bigger unit. He took his time to make sure we were satisfied with the new unit. I highly recommend this place, it's clean, friendly staff, and accessible. ... Read more

On 12/12/24 I went into the Public Storage at 5050 Hard Scrabble Rd. Columbia, SC, to speak with someone about the increase in my storage bill and the store Manager Charlie assisted with my concern. Charlie pulled up my account and reviewed it. Charlie was able to adjust my monthly rate for my storage. Charlie was very professional and kind!

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.
