Is insurance included in the rental cost of the storage unit?

Asked 2 years ago
Insurance is generally not included in the rental cost of a storage unit at Public Storage. Most facilities operate under the standard practice of requiring tenants to secure their own insurance for the belongings stored within the unit. This is primarily to ensure that individuals protect their items against potential risks such as theft, fire, or water damage. Public Storage may offer insurance options for tenants to consider, allowing them to purchase coverage specifically tailored for their needs. It is advisable for customers to carefully read the terms and conditions associated with their storage rental agreement to understand any insurance requirements or recommendations that may be in place. Additionally, tenants may find it beneficial to check with their own homeowners or renters insurance policies, as these may provide coverage for items stored off-site. For more detailed information regarding insurance options and requirements, visiting the relevant section of the Public Storage website is recommended.
