Extra Space Storage

This place is ghetto. Gotta say, if the staff is authoritative and treats you like a child, then they are regularly dealing with children or forcing them to behave like children by being condescended to. Moved out, tried to throw away some stuff in their dumpster with zero signage that the dumpster is not for storage residents. Had a staff member come out of the office while shaking her head condescendingly from a distance. Did not know the policy as there were no signs, but treated like a criminal when I was advised of the ... read more

I've been a customer with Extra Space Storage for a little over 5 years but with this particular facility for 3.5 of those 5 years. I recommend you give SERIOUS consideration BEFORE you choose ES for your storage needs, and not just at this location but at ANY location of this corporation. I'll begin with the negative. Countrywide issues that can affect customers anywhere... 1) Unless you want to give up any right to a partial refund of any given month once you give proper notice and move out, I recommend you steer clea... read more

A little disappointed that with some of the policies the storage place has. I vacated the storage early and was sent notification that I had vacated storage, but they were unwilling to do a partial refund of my fees. I was told unfortunately I have the storage until next month. I think that is a waste when the storage could be rented out to someone else.

Don't rent here. The workers at this location don't care about the customers. I was a customer for 2 years. I moved my stuff out this past Sunday. I called them Monday twice to discuss my account closure. They didn't answer either time. I drove to the site and they had a "Be Back in 1.5 hours" sign, I left. So I did the "Live Chat' thing on the website. I asked to close my account but I was told I couldn't get a credit for rest of the month (which I was fine with). So I told them I would like to keep my storage unit until t... read more

AWFUL! My storage unit was broken into and they stole my husbands heavy duty tools, which came out to ~ $10,000 loss! Their security cameras are terrible and record low quality images and they only have a few cameras. The cameras really give you a false sense of security. The thieves literally just broke into the unit and it was recorded on camera, but the quality was so poor that the thieves/ their car could not be identified. Furthermore, Extraspace did not call the police and changed the door and ruined any potential evid... read more

I was paying for a storage unit at AAAAA Self Storage when Extra Space Storage bought them out. I paid for a unit for an additional 5 years at Extra Space until I found a big enough space in Berkeley to move my stuff into. Yes it took that long. So I closed my account with Extra Space. I returned after a few years last summer, 2016, and asked to open a small unit. The woman at the counter looked at me with hard, dull, resentful eyes as though she were already bored with me, thought I was an idiot, and was giving her a headac... read more

This place would get four stars except for they are more than double the price of storage elsewhere. They also have had homeless people renting spaces as living spaces, though the people I saw lurking were keeping it way down low. They have great gate hours, so there's that.

Expect hidden fees. Extra Space Storage reels customers in with "1/2 off" or "1st month free" gimmicks because they make the money back in other forms. The average self storage customer probably ends up utilizing the service longer than anticipated, which they count on. Expect your rate to increase. The rates are not locked. Your payments will increase! Expect to be asked worth of items in storage at time of signing lease. Expect mandatory insurance fees of at least $32/mth. (The minimum insurance charge is $32 for $5,000.... read more

Wow, rate increase within 5 months of moving in with absolutely NO notice whatsoever and no reasoning for the increase. From a few other reviews I now see, this is apparently a regular and recurring practice. They may claim it's due to rising costs, but the fact that their advertised rates remain unchanged is proof that these increases are nothing more than taking advantage of their customers. Will be moving my stuff out ASAP. Stay away from Extra Space and their predatory business practices.
