"When I moved to Chicago I was looking for a storage facility that I know would not only hold my whole house till closing but I know will also keep it safe. I believe she's a manager her name is Julieana and she was very helpful and even explained each storage units size and what would work better for my stuff because other places were trying to sell me 2 units and she helped with just 1 unit and it all fit like a glove. Thank you for people like her."
"Iāve been looking for a good storage place for some of my things because I am downsizing so I can travel more without the weight of having to take everything with me. Julieana made me feel comfortable to use this place so Iāll be there soon hopefully.
Julieana was immaculate. She has the best customer service Iāve seen in a while. She explained everything very good such as the prices and the policy.
She knows exactly what sheās doing. I rate her five stars for such amazing customer service."
"I have been in this facility for over 4yrs. And TODAY on my move out date, I am ONLY rating it this high because of EVELYN. Prior to todays move. I have been so dissatisfied with this company, that eventually I had to move to another storage company. Prior to today I wouldāve given it a Zero if possible.
I sincerely wish EVELYN, wouldāve been here from day 1, and that I couldāve been able to stay and deal with her instead of all the terrible managers that I have came across during my stay.
It was my time to leave after numerous mishaps, discussions, dirty facility, rude managers (recently one named Sergio from another facility.)
I want to Thank EVELYN for all of her help. Her kindness, and her ability to speak in such professional manner.
I have so much more I would like to give a review on. I will save that for an over all experience."

I've been to Florida, georia, Indiana and Michigan storage facilities and I AM COMPLETELY SATISFIED WITH THE SERVICES HERE. Jessica was so helpful and pleasant to talk to. I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. THANK YOU JESSICA FOR YOUR PATIENCE AND KINDNESS."
"I don't like the fact that you have to wait to unload your things because there are never any carts available. Then you have to wait until one becomes free one other customer is done and it may be 3 to 4 people before you edition on just ONE cart, time consuming and ridiculous."
