CubeSmart and Public Storage are two names you’ll run into when searching for self-storage. We read through reviews and looked into their features. Here’s what to know before you choose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CubeSmart vs. Public Storage: <\/strong>Quick Answer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

CubeSmart<\/strong> is the cheaper<\/strong> option and comes with more perks<\/strong>. It has 1,500+ facilities<\/strong> in 42 states.
<\/strong>
<\/strong>Public Storage has more consistent customer service<\/strong> and 4,600+ facilities<\/strong> across 42 states.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re storing long-term, plan for price increases. At both facilities, the rate you see today won’t be what you’re paying after the first few months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
