PUBLIC STORAGE 3601 W Blue Heron BLVD , Riviera Beach
PUBLIC WARNING / REVIEW
THEFT INSIDE THE STORAGE - BE CAREFUL!
I'm leaving this warning for anyone considering renting a unit at this Public Storage in [insert location or address here, e.g., West Palm Beach, Florida].
Today I went to pick up my boat and discovered that I was the victim of a major theft inside this storage facility, a place that's supposed to be safe and monitored by security cameras 24/7.
Stolen items:
(2) Marine batteries - $400
(1) Rockville marine amplifier - $280
(4) Kicker Marine bar speakers - $1,600
(2) Kicker 6" speakers - $250
(5) Life jackets
(1) Battery jumper - $90
(2) Lock keys (wheel and trailer locks)
Total estimated loss: over $2,600.
What's most outrageous is the attitude of the staff -- extremely rude, cold, and indifferent, showing no willingness to help at all.
Not a single employee came to inspect the scene, even after I asked multiple times.
It honestly feels like they're already used to these thefts -- or worse, they know exactly what's going on and choose to ignore it.
I spoke with several other customers while I was there, and everyone confirmed that thefts are common at this location.
This means there's a serious and ongoing security problem, and the management does absolutely nothing to protect customers.
The storage company immediately denied any responsibility, saying they won't pay for the damages -- even though the theft happened inside their facility, which is supposed to be covered with cameras that "mysteriously" never record anything.
This is unacceptable and shows a huge failure in security and management.
It feels like a complete scam: you pay a high price for a "secure" storage space, trust your property there, and later find out that robberies happen often and no one is held accountable.
My warning to everyone:
Before renting here, go visit the location and look around the back area.
Talk to other renters -- many will confirm that thefts happen all the time.
Don't trust the so-called "security" they advertise.
I truly hope this review helps prevent others from going through what I did. read more
