"I looked at 4 other storage facilities. Sean was the friendliest, the most knowledgeable and helpful. When I said I had a couple more to look at, he was very professional and encouraged me to come back after looking at them. And I did. Uncle Bob's [Life Storage] is the best value but above that, it was the friendliness and helpfulness of Sean that won me over. It seemed the other facilities didn't care if I rented or not. Sean cared. Thanks Sean!"

"Dave exceeded my expectations, was Very open, informative, respectful and interpersonal. So much to the point, we initially came in to price shop and felt comfortable enough to rent today without any further price searching. I should add that the location is not in the town I live in, but was convenient enough and professional enough to drive a little further. "

"You gave me a low monthly price and bigger storage unit than Public Storage in the same city boundary. I was paying $168.00 a month for 10 by 15 and I am now paying a $137.00 a month at Uncle Bob's [Life Storage] for a 10 by 20. So, I am saving 31 dollars a month. "

We were going through a difficult housing situation at the time, and it was so great to feel like Dave really was on our side."

"Perfect timing on this survey! I have been intending on writing you for some time now. Seriously, I have a half written letter to your Buffalo office. I have only been a customer since last August, but I wanted to tell you about a teriffic employee you have at your Aurora, IL lake St. facility. Deanna! Awesome employee! Very kind and courteous. Such a great attitude and always in a positive mood whenever I stop in! Just wanted to pass this along... I know how it can be, not being recognized for your hard work and efforts. Deana deserves a nice thank you! Thanks for taking the time to read this, Dan"

"The website & in-store receipts appear confusing to customers. The bottom portion of a receipt shows the following payment due for the following months to come. So, customers think they've already paid for the following month, as well...and do not understand that it's a courtesy to show the next bill due date. "

"I was very impressed by the professionalism and helpfulness that the Uncle Bob [Life Storage]storage employees showed. I live out of state and was inquiring about a place to store my daughters automobile while she attends college back in Aurora IL and came home for the summer. They really put my mind at ease and reassured me things will be well taken care of ,as they were.
I look forward to the same service come April when I need their services again :-)"
