"We are so happy with life storage! We have used the storage facilities on/off here for a number of years now and we can’t recommend it enough. Janice, in particular, is exceptional with regard to customer service and attention to detail. We highly recommend this facility, especially with Janice as manager there... she goes above and beyond making sure she that your storage is safe and secure."
"Was not impressed with customer service here. We do not recommend it. Security door was broken for weeks and made move out difficult. They had tried to overcharge us for the inconveniences."
"Janice was very helpful we came in just looking for a storage option and she was more then happy to help. We wanted to see another option as well and she was fine with coming back down to get us the other room to look at. I’m leaving here with renting a storage because the experience was very nice and she was super helpful.! Would recommend coming here and I would come again.!"

"Have been dealing with them for a few years now. Candace is great to work with. I believe Life Storage offers a good value and a safe, clean environment. If they could only teach people how to park.... :)"
"Just went into Life Store website and reserved a spot and a few minutes later Janice called me to see if I had any questions. Which I did. She answered them all and saved me a call to them tomorrow. She was awesome."
"Janice is so helpful! I just rented my 2nd unit at the Lombard facility, and Janice made the process so easy. I actually moved to Lombard from another facility because of Janice and how well-managed this facility is! Lombard is clean and warm. Temp is well-maintained and staff is always friendly and helpful. You want to rent here. They are awesome!"
"I have been with Life Storage for two years now.
When life hit me, I needed a place to store my whole house!
I chose this facility, not only based on price, it was based on security and the personalization of the staff.
I have now moved from my 10x15 to a smaller unit, yay!
Janice was incredibly helpful! I have known her for two years (since I first began storing) and she had no issue moving me to a smaller unit, answering all my questions (I had a lot!), and making sure my experience STAYED how it was when I first began storing with Life Storage.
Janice you rock! Thank you again for your help 😁"
"I've never rented a storage unit before. Janice was so helpful getting everything setup and advised what I could do ahead of time to save time when I came in. I've been happy with the facility so far and would rent another unit from here if I needed to."
"When entering the building Janice was right there with a smile. We were looking for a certain size unit and she informed us that she didn't have one in that size available. She then had me wait a minute while she checked another life storage that was only a couple minutes away. They did have what we were looking for. I want to tell everyone looking for storage to come check this place out. Her going out of her way just to make someone happy was just great. I wish she had my unit just because of Janice. Thank you for everything Janice"
"Janice and her team are terrific. I've used other competing storage facilities and Life Storage is better priced, better managed and really clean. Great communication with the staff. I love that I can pull my vehicle into the bay and unload without having to deal with the weather."
"Came into Lombard office today, and although I wasn't able to rent a unit at this time, Janice was very competent and knowledgeable. I hope to do business with Life Storage in the future. I will definitely recommend your facility to others."
"Theresa and Janice was a huge help. There were a mix up with the size of the unit but it was taken care of right away and we went home happy. Both ladies in the office are so friendly and know what they are doing. My wife and I are so pleased and would recommend this storage facility to anyone who needs a place to store. Janice showed us that there were cameras located on the first floor and the floor that we are renting. She also informed us that they do a daily walk to make sure everything is ok. She also informed us of the security that they have which i was impressed. Theresa finished with us. She also gave us a good run down about the property. She was extremely knowledgeable. What an outstanding service we got!!!"
"Teresa was awesome in getting me my storage unit. Was easy to get going. Facility also seems VERY secure and has a lot of layers to protect its customers"
"Painless process, very great customer service. Super easy to get in and out of the unit. Its nice that the units are indoor and they have a loading dock for your vehicle."
"Facility is very nice and always smells clean and fresh! Theresa in the office is very pleasant and always willing to help with any issues. Would recommend to everyone."
"I was at this store when I got help from a lady named Janice. I was trying to find out the cost and Availability of a storage unit Janice went out of her way to show me the unit its self and to answer any questions I might have regarding it. Janice was very knowledgeable in all questions I had."
"Such a pleasant place and wonderful staff. The assistant manager answered all my questions. I definitely will using you guys for my move! Thank you to your wonderful assistant manager"
"Janice was so helpful to me. She went above and beyond for me, answered my questions, and provided excellent service. The facility is excellent as well."
"I was recently at this location working with outstanding lady, I believe her name was Janice. I went into details with her as to what I was looking for. She was very understanding and professional and explained all the options I would have available, she even explained how you have moving trucks available also which I did not know. I explained how I was just shopping around comparing pricing, and she was never pushy she listened and just went above and beyond what she needed to. I will diffenitly be back and will be using them during my move. Super experience and wished all people could be as pleasant as Janice was with me. Thank you so much."
"I just wanted to add that Janice was amazing from beginning to end. I’m a truck driver and was dreading having to move my personal things into a storage unit. She made everything move smoothly. What I thought was so amazing is that how she handled my situation and reached out to another location to reserve a cargo van for me so I can transport my things easily!!!!! I have to say this amazing customer service was unexpected.... especially from a storage company. She even called me the day after to make sure I didn’t have any more questions !!!!"
"I came into this location and surprised it was a little slower then I thought. Janice the asst store manager was in the bay cleaning when I got there and when I was leaving she was cleaning the elevators. The new girls in the office really have taken good care of this property sense they have been here. Huge difference. When I got inside Janice welcomed me back and when I was leaving she told me to have a great day and she will see me again soon."
"I had the most wonderful experience at Life storage with Janet she went above and beyond to get me checked in and get everything taken care of she should definitely be in management her personality is amazing. Thanks so much for all your help"
"I came into life storage to come get some things out of my unit upon arriving janice greeted me right away. Great service. Will definitely recommend to my friends and family"
"Customer service is always on top of everything. Place is always clean. Girl in the office stopped what she was doing to ask me how my Thanksgiving was. Can't get any better than this place."
"I came in to our stuff in our storage and the lady working was out in the bay making sure there were no puddles. Very friendly. She also reminded me to wear my mask while on the property. Great job!"
"Office smelt so clean and fresh which made me feel that it is very sterile durng this pandemic. Property is very well kept and secure. Teresa was very helpful and very informative."
"I have been a customer here for about 2 yrs now. The other day I came and there was a women, a employee in the building washing down the doors to the units. I thought to myself how nice, someone is finally taking the time to clean this place up. Today I arrived there and she was on a ladder washing windows. I asked her name and she told me it was Theresa. She is really making a difference there. It is so nice to arrive to go to my unit and the drive in bay is always swept, the elevators are always shining and clean and it looks so nice!! She is doing a great job and thought the company should know she is making a difference!!"
"Teresa was such a great help. She has such good patience. I was so undecided and she showed me 3 units and told me how to pack my items and how to protect them. I'm so happy I chose Life Storage."
"Great customer service. I went into the office to see what they had for my moving supplies. Janice helped me figure out when I needed and offered to help me to my car. If we need anything else I will for sure come back. She was a delight!"
"I came in to the store yesterday and there were 2 ladies working. They both were in a good mood. The place was extremely clean and customer service was great. I'm not the one who rents there, came in with my sister but if I ever need storage this will be the place I come to. Hands down.
Thank you Theresa and Janice for the positive attitude you both had. It's hard to find now a days.
Mary"

"I’ve just recently moved to Lombard and was looking for a unit to store some of my belongings that weren’t going into my new home quite yet. When we walked in, I immediately noticed how clean the facility was and the staff was very nice. We ended up using life storage as our storage facility and at a CHEAPER price because we were able to match their online prices! So convenient! The lady was super friendly and did a great job even though she informed me she was still in training. Our storage unit is the perfect price for us and was super clean! Def will recommend to neighbors and family!"

"Friendly helpful staff. Please book online for specials/reservations so the poor young lady doesnt have to redo the application. She did so without even a hint of complaining/annoyance for me this inattentive old man!"
"I have had a great experience with Life Storage. I had multiple units at the beginning of the last two years. As I have downsize my storage, moved chunks of belongings out, lost my keys and needed to sort things in place, they have been very helpful, especially Jennifer. The place was always clean, well lit and was temperature comfortable at all times. I just moved out of my last unit to another state.
I went from a 10 x 10 and a 10 x 20 into a 5 x 8 trailer that made the move. That was a bunch of selling and giving away my excess stuff. They were always very helpful."
