April 28, 2015"The onsite manager is a life saver. he has gone above and beyond for me. He has helped me with several moves during very stressful times. I worked for a book company so was frequently working out of my storage units, sometimes alone during very late hours and I never felt unsafe. I have rarely if ever even seen a bug or spider in the entire facility, which is near impossible! I just can't say enough about the Lake Forest facility's service and its all because of him. I havent met anyone else at Bobs that works to this caliber. He is truly dedicated. "
March 27, 2015"The onsite manager, Jeff, was fantastic, very knowledgeable and accommodating. Use of the truck to move into the space was an additional factor in my decision to rent a space from Uncle Bob's [Life Storage]. "
March 27, 2015"The store Mgr, Jeff, was awesome. Very helpful. A+++ for his service !"
December 23, 2014"I think the property and manager, Jeff, are top notch. It has not been as personal and at ease as it was before Uncle Bob [Life Storage] acquired the property. There is an obvious "do things by the book" feeling in the other staff and frankly, this is storage. A people business, not computer assembly. "
November 25, 2014"A very nice facility. Easy to get in and out. Very clean ."
November 23, 2014"The olny problem with your service is that you guys are so good that you are pretty much sold out at my location. Hence, I can't move into to a larger unit."
August 27, 2014"The only reason I didn't give highest scores on satisfaction was the price and how it increased so much so fast after I rented. The price is actually what prompted me to finish up my mother's estate and get the items out of storage."
August 23, 2014"I was impressed with the security of your units. The manager was very kind and helpful. We would use you again"
August 01, 2014"Uncle Bob's [Life Storage] is the gold standard for storage units. All storage places should be this good!"
July 23, 2014"Great Place, great location, access is perfect for my needs. "
June 27, 2014"Everything is fine with the service I do wish I could contact the store directly through email --it seems a bit ridiculous that the option is not available "
June 05, 2014"We stopped simply because we didn't need extra storage any longer. Would go back again if needed. I think Jeff was the mans name at the Lake Forest location - very nice."
May 31, 2014"We are out of town for long periods and in Winter we are gone for 3-4 months. When home we don't get to your location very often."
March 03, 2014"Jeff was friendly and did an efficient and excellent job getting me set up in my unit."
February 28, 2014"The manager (Jeff I believe) was a genuinely nice person and help me with my storage needs. I wasn't sure if I needed a larger unit and he reassured me that if I needed a larger unit he would be able to accommodate me and help me out with the logistics. Truly a great experience with a great person running the show at Lake Forest!!"
February 28, 2014"The Lake Forest facility on Skokie Valley Highway is MAGNIFICENT."
February 28, 2014"my daughter attends Lake Forest College and is in her last year there. your team has been very helpful each spring and fall in getting her back in and out to her college dorms. thank you very muhc"
February 28, 2014"The staff here are amazing and courteous and couldn't help us enough. We own 2 units here and we are delighted with the service. Thank you."
February 16, 2014"I like the way you send me my monthly invoice on the computer. It is actually better for me to get it e-mailed rather than sending it in the snail mail. Walter"
January 18, 2014"Jeffrey provided excellent service. During our "move in", Jeffrey stopped by and checked to see that everything was progressing smoothly. Thanks for the use of your truck. Thank you. Barry"
January 04, 2014"I would not entertain looking elsewhere for another storage facility. We had a great experience using your services. I will likely need your services at the end of the school year. See you then."
