Legal Question in Consumer Law in California

The self-storage manager sent a first and only mailed "Receipt" for a $35 rent payment stating $50 was due for storage of my pickup and boat. I phoned and was told the charges were "late fees" and that by then, $110 was due. I paid the $110 and asked for an itemized invoice. It began when a mailed payment was returned for a wrong address. I phoned and the manager said, "No problem!" But there were problems - a late fee, then a Preliminary Lien fee without notice.
From Jan - Mar, my rent payments went to fees, and the remainder to rent, leaving a constant balance due - as a 2nd PL fee was charged, then a 3rd, then a Lien fee, all without notice or anything else required by the B&P, CC, H&N, and VC. I'm paid to April 4th and removing my truck and boat this week. How do I deal with these people? Can I send a letter and request any of this back? Take them to court?

Move your stuff and take them to small claims court for the inappropriate fees and charges.
