While looking for a temporary place to store our items while we renovate our home, this Public Storage was conveniently located and had very good promotions online. While we needed to upgrade our size, we were able to find one once we got to the facility and do so rather quickly. Would definitely recommend the location as it's fairly close to the highway and has access to major cross streets. The customer service and follow up was very timely and very friendly. (Always a plus!)

Crespo was wonderful but I have only had the storage for a couple of weeks and both times I have gone to the storage the side door where you enter the building has been ajar and you don't need the code to get in. And the cart by the door seems to have a broken wheel or something so it is unusable. I did not mention it to Crespo since it was after hours both times. thank you.

After reviewing other options in the area for storage, Public Storage had the best online deal for the space I needed. All fees were explained to me beforehand. Some of the specific totals could not be calculated until we actually went through the purchase process, but I understood what each item was, including expectations for when charges would come up over time if I utilize the storage space over multiple months. Xhavier, The staff when I arrived to look over the space was courteous, friendly and knowledgeable.

The place is generally acceptable but has some negatives. It's supposed to be climate controlled but this doesn't seem to be the case throughout because it gets very warm in the summer and the outside doors are propped open. One of two elevators doesn't work and hasn't since I moved in. There's a bathroom but it's routinely inaccessible and not always kept stocked with supplies. There's a security issue because the front gate manual door has a flaky latch so sometimes it's possible for anyone to enter the off the street.

Staff was helpful. Only issue was the lock hasp on my unit was to tight causing the lock not to go in properly. Sam said it still works sort of. I pointed out all the other locks in the row were properly seated, but mine was not. Sam said he would take care of it, but after three weeks it was not fixed. I fixed it myself last week. Frank

As far as storage rental is concerned, this is a great facility with a bunch of options. Two things to know - first, for all storage rental: Remember you need to provide (or buy from them) a lock that's more secure than a standard combination lock -- and also remember you have to pay for a minimum amount of insurance which adds to the monthly cost. The representative I dealt with, Evelyn, was extremely helpful in getting all the paperwork in order and giving us the tour / orientation. The only issue is: If she has to leave the office area and go into the storage area, nobody else can access the office until she comes back. Maybe they need another employee on site to prevent these gaps in service. Other than that, everything seemed efficient and trustworthy.

Finding and renting self storage facilities in Des Plaines, 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 local area does not always mean it is the best option for you. Please consider the following factors when selecting a storage unit in Des Plaines, Illinois.

  • Storage unit's rates are based on a few 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 temporary residential use that can be delivered to your property or hauled by you for on-site storage.
  • For commercial and business storage, many facilities offer larger unit sizes like 10x20 or 10x30, which are ideal for storing office equipment, inventory, or business records. These sizes can also accommodate vehicles, making them a great option for car storage.
  • Storage facilities with flexible leases allow you to rent on a month-to-month basis.
  • Whether a facility offers climate controlled units or only a drive up unit. That will also determine the monthly rent. Usually, storage units which are climate controlled are more expensive than drive up units or storage containers.
  • Most locations have digital keypad access, and they provide you with your own personal access code to the storage facility. Check with the office for availability.
  • Consider drive-up storage units for convenient loading and unloading, especially when storing 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. Reach out to 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 Des Plaines, Illinois?

For new customers, many storage facilities run promotions like the first month is free. Search by your zip code or distance to locate storage units that come with the first month free and other decent storage discounts. Take advantage of storage unit specials if you're a first-time renter.


How do I find the cheapest storage in Des Plaines?

You can sort by price, from low to high, to find affordable options on our website. Away from the center of the city, you have a better chance of finding inexpensive storage solutions. The size and amenities that the facility offers also 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 during these times to help you with your storage questions. If you have questions or need help outside these hours, check for the property's phone number to reach the leasing office directly. The gate hours determine when you can enter the property and use your unit.
