She emailed the request to me to see if I wanted to respond. (I had given the shipper the storage address but had changed my phone number due to fraud.) Facility is nicely designed and I have had no problems with intrusion from the "100-year" floods that seem to occur every few years. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone needing storage."

"Cathy (the manager) is doing a wonderful job. I have used this facility for six years--even before the rebranding from Uncle Bob's to Life Storage. Cathy is very helpful when I managed to lose my keys--twice. I had mentioned the address of Life Storage for an order and had to change my phone number due to fraud. The shipper contacted Cathy to reach me. Cathy sent me an email describing the details of the request so I could contact them without giving out my contact information to the shipper. I appreciate this privacy concern very much. A major concern using a storage facility is will it remain dry when the "100-year" floods occur--every few years, it seems. I have had no problems in that regard. I certainly would recommend this facility to anyone who needed storage space."

After looking online and then having some follow up calls with other storage facilities it was clear many have hidden costs/ increasing rates after 6 months etc. Cathy and Eric who I interacted with at the Lake Forrest location were extremely helpful in assisting me to find the perfect unit for my needs. An informative and efficient sign up and walk- through made the process easy as possible. I signed up and pre-paid for a year in advance. I have recommended this place to other friends who are also looking at getting a storage unit at this location. I could not be more complementary about this location, staff and above all the great rates. Andrew"

I just changed units in the same building and it was an upgrade for me . They also gave me a discount for a lot of moving blankets I needed for my home. They have a great staff and are very professional. This is the best storage and I can drive my car in to get to my storage unit. How great is that when it is raining or snowing."

"The staff is exceptional, always very helpful and accommodating."

"Friendly service, lovely facility and a fair price."

"Need a storage facility for the summer so that my son doesn't have to bring all his dorm room stuff back to CA. I called to inquire about current fees and summer rental. Since I had only spoken with a call center, Cathy reached out to me to make sure I had all the info I needed. She was very helpful.

I have a storage locker in lake bluff and they couldn't care a bit about my business and yet the monthly rent continues to climb. So I went into Life Storage today simply to investigate moving my monthly rental to them. Cathy didn't try to sell me; she just chatted about their service and their facility. Sold!! The monthly price -a cost savings- is a bonus. Bottom line... If you need to rent a storage locker... you MUST see Cathy at Life Storage. Yes monthly rent is unavoidable if you want a storage locker. But If you are spending hard-earned cash why not receive both a locker (at a great price!!) AND fantastic customer service? Go there!!"
