"Five Starts.
If you ever need a storage unit, this is the place to go.
I'm very thankful I found this place and also thankful with their service.
Great customer service, from the very start. (Shout out to Dave at the front desk!)
Great prices/fees.
Great place to store our belongings, since I am very picky about the places I go to or even write a review for, as far as storage this is the place for me."
"I switched to Life Storage Addison from another storage company because of issues I was having with them. I use it for my business and Life Storage is excellent at receiving my packages and helping me out. The place is always clean, safe and well lit and Dave does a great job running the place. I am glad I switched and I would recommend this place to anyone needing storage."
"I rented this unit the night before on-line with instructions on how to access the property, the next day I went, accessed my unit .piece of cake. Highly recommend."
"I've used a couple of storage companies over the past few years and my experience with Life Storage Addison couldn't have been easier and better. Dave at the front desk is very efficient, kind, and helpful, and I personally never had issues with my space or accessing my unit at any time during their access hours. I rarely review companies anyway, but my experience here was great enough to do so!"
"The place wasn't busy. Nice climate controlled building for storage. Passed by on way to emissions test and stopped in on the way home for information. The gentleman behind the safety counter was friendly and helpful. Their prices are in line with what the current market rate is (9/28/21). At this time they did have a few units available. They have been open for 10 years."
"Janice went above and beyond to be really helpful to us with our storage unit. We could not have asked for better service and are grateful for the kind and helpful assistance. We're happy to recommend Life Storage in Addison."
"Manager Janice is great costumer service helps and explains clearly all the needs to be known i will definitely recommend this place thank you Janice"
"I like to thank you to Janice because she help me with insurance issues when my storage place get water damage.So it's was nice to talking with her and thank you again for her help."
"Janice and everyone I worked with at Life Storage were kind and easy to deal with. The unit was clean and storing there was super easy as was the billing. For what I got, it was totally worth the price. Moving out/ending the unit was also super easy. Would definitely consider them again in the future if I need a unit. My brother and his wife have also maintained a unit there for many years. Highly recommend!"
"Great storage facility with wonderful employees. They are very helpful and even gave me a call to avoid late fees when my automatic payment wasn’t set up right. They also keep it clean and in good repair."
"Janice is great. She helped my family during a hard time. She went over and beyond what she needed to. She makes her customers feel like home and family when she talks to us. I hope she never leaves. She is 100% better than that other manager that was here. I give Janice 10 out of 10."
"the lady at the counter was very helpful and answered all the questions i had about the my unit since i’ve just recently started renting, 10/10 will recommend to others."
"Would like to come on here to just inform anyone that reads this that the store manager Janis is one hell of a manager. I had an issue with my lock. It wouldn't go in. She took her to e to figure out the issue and she fixed it for me. No questions asked. I just rented not long ago but never used my lock but she was right there and walked me through the hole process. If you want excellent service from a storage company Life storage in Addison is where you want to be!"
"My family has been renting here for a while now and I have to say the changes in the cleaning has been amazing. The new lady in the office has been out scrubbing the floors and wiping everything down. It's nice to see someone who cares about their job!! We are glad to have her here to change the place around."

"Fran was so professional and knowledgeable. She was patient, thorough, and very helpful. I am pleased to I chose this location. The office was very clean and I felt safe from germs/viruses with Covid-19 concerns."
"OMG! Fran is the best! She was very informative and she is also so pleasant to work with. She takes her time to explain the contracts and rules. She made sure that all my questions were answered."
"Fran is awesome. She helped me out and was very professional and accommodating. She made it possible so that I could store my vehicle with an affordable rate. May she win the lottery some day. Thanks a ton, Fran."
"In February I lost my storage unit that I had been renting for 18 years and had to move out within 3 weeks. After researching some local options, I called Life Storage in Addison and spoke to Fran about storage options. She explained very thoroughly the options that were available at the time and encouraged me to stop by to look at the available units in person. I did so, and she gave a hands on tour of the facility and showed me a 10x10 unit that was closest to the loading bay for ease of moving. I engaged in a lease for that unit on-line and the process could not have been easier. It also included 1 free month! On move in day, the garage door for the loading bay was broken and I thought I would have to come back another day, but Fran again was a big help in getting me setup to unload and move my items in on a cart through the office and to my unit. I had everything moved in within an hour. It could not have gone more smoothly and subsequent trips pulling into the loading bay with my truck have made it even that much easier. Thanks again Fran!"
"Came here looking for a unit while I am in-between apartments and Fran was awesome. She helped me get a unit that works best for me and even suggested a moving a van for a super affordable price. 10/10 recommend life strange and going to see Fran at the Addison location :)"
"Recently found the need for a storage facility and read the reviews for Life Storage in Addison, store #557. Placed a hold on a couple parking spots and visited the store to be met by the store manager Fran. Fran was hospitable and professional; calmly answered all of my questions and presented a very well rounded facility including inside storage and office units. Needless to say, I was impressed and look forward to working with Fran in the future"
"Met with Dave for a unit to store some of my wife's overwhelming quarantine purchases and he was great getting me a unit quickly. The facility is very clean and the rest of the staff is very helpful and polite. Great job!"
