Review
I am truly disappointed with my experience at Extra Space Storage Lincoln Park. I need to share my experience to inform others about the issues I encountered. While the manager Marisol and Arnold were polite, they seemed to make up their process as they went, strictly adhering to orders from 'the owner'. With that said they delivered little kindness and even less service. I entrusted Extra Space Storage with my personal belongings, including important documents, photos, financial documents for safekeeping. However, when I found myself in a situation where I needed to resolve outstanding storage fees, the facility failed to uphold the basic principles of fairness, communication, and adherence to legal processes. Despite making a proactive offer to pay and vacate my storage unit, I was shocked to discover that the facility proceeded with auction without notifying me whether or not my bid to pay and vacate the unit had been accepted. I reached management by phone before the auction had closed and was informed my offer had been accepted. I only needed pay in cash at the branch that day. I arrived at the facility as instructed, only to be greeted by a locked office door and a sign stating, "Management on the property." This left me in a state of confusion and frustration. In summary, my experience with Extra Space Storage in Lincoln Park, Illinois, has been marked by incompetence, negligence, and a complete disregard for their customers' needs and rights. If we are able to resolve this issue we can address the nicer amenities and facilities. Without trust and communication those won't do future customers any good. I implore anyone considering using their services to think twice and explore alternative storage solutions that prioritize customer satisfaction, fairness, and adherence to legal procedures.

The various persons at the front desk have always been very helpful. The back office sometimes gets things mucked up, such as a year or so ago when I added a unit to the one I had; the corporate office for some reason assumed I was getting rid of the first unit. I did do that some months later, but not at the same time. Bruce Deemer

Finding and renting self-storage facilities in Chicago, Illinois is now easier through MoversCorp. Compare options and rent storage near you with just a few clicks. We provide the convenience of reserving affordable storage units online or by phone. No credit card or long-term contract is required. Consider us as your solution for finding and reserving storage facilities throughout Illinois, including options for mini storage units and storage containers to suit a variety of needs.

The cheapest storage unit in your area may not always be the best choice. Please consider the following factors when selecting a storage unit in Chicago, Illinois.

  • Monthly rates are based on features such as 24/7 access, climate control, facility security, location, and overall demand in your area.

  • For household goods, the most common storage unit sizes are 5x5, 5x10, 10x10, and 10X15. For added flexibility, some companies also offer portable mini storage units for rent for temporary residential use that can be delivered to your property or hauled by you for on-site storage.

  • Many facilities offer larger unit sizes for commercial and business storage, like 10x20 or 10x30. These sizes are ideal for storing office equipment, inventory, or business records. These sizes can also accommodate vehicles, making them a great option for car storage.

  • Most storage facilities require insurance for stored items. If you don’t have your own policy, you may need to buy one through the facility, adding about $15 to $50 to your storage rental cost each month. Some places also charge a refundable deposit or an administrative fee when you move in. Always ask about these costs and refund conditions before signing a lease.

  • Storage facilities with flexible leases allow you to rent on a month-to-month basis. Be aware that storage unit price increases are common. Many customers say their rates go up after a few months, sometimes more than once a year. Since storage rentals are month-to-month, facilities can raise prices with proper notice. Ask about potential rate increases before committing to a unit.

  • The monthly rent will also depend on whether a facility offers climate-controlled units or only drive-up units. Climate-controlled units cost more than drive-up units or storage containers.

  • Most locations have digital keypad access, which provides you with your personal access code. Check with the office for availability.
  • Consider drive-up access for easier loading and unloading, especially for heavy or bulky items.

  • Some facilities may provide extra room or rental space for public use, such as areas for organizing or handling your stored items. Contact the property manager to confirm availability.

  • Check for online reviews and recommendations.

  • Ask the office about the preventive security measures for safeguarding the location.


Are there free storage deals in Chicago, Illinois?

Many companies offer promotions for new customers, such as a free first month. Search by your zip code or distance to locate cheap storage units that come with the first month free and other decent storage discounts. Take advantage of specials if you're a first-time renter.


How do I find the cheapest storage in Chicago?

You can sort by price, from low to high, to find affordable options on our website. Away from the city center, you have a better chance of finding inexpensive storage rental solutions. The facility's size and amenities affect the monthly price.


What is the difference between an indoor and outdoor unit?

You have easy access to your unit when it is an outdoor unit. If the unit is indoors, you must first enter the building to get to it.


What is the difference between office hours and gate hours?

The property's operating hours are during office hours. The store manager will be on duty to help you with your questions. If you have questions or need help outside these hours, look up the property's phone number to contact the leasing office directly. The gate hours determine when you can enter the property and use your unit.

With years of storage industry experience, we’ve refined our services to meet your needs. Our Chicago storage facilities offer secure spaces for your valuables, giving you peace of mind. We prioritize customer service so you can feel confident choosing us. Booking is hassle-free with no credit card required.
