The reservation process was simple and easy; after pre-paying online, the information for my unit and access to the facility was met via email & I was moving in the same afternoon. The unit was clean and easy to access, and there was also a hand cart to make moving things in easy. Highly recommend!

Even though I haven't rented from public storage just yet, due to me shopping around. I just have to mention how sweet and attentive Nicole is! She was so patient with me! I had so many questions and concerns and she had no problem answering them! She knows A lot about the company and the units! When it came to insurance she was a pro!! I loved how she wasn't trying to just get me in and sell me on a unit! She wanted to make sure I was comfortable with my decision and i wasn't pressured into Renting a unit! I will definitely be renting from this location! Nicole is an exceptional worker who takes her job seriously and treats her customers like family! I wish I could rate more stars because Nicole definitely deserves them!

Moving after my divorce was the most stressful thing ever but the ladies in the office in Mokena were amazing. They helped me reserve the unit, find movers and helped me get all the right boxes for my stuff. The girls reserved my unit for me and my unit/building was the cleanest I've ever seen in storage. Thanks again ladies and keep up the great work!!

I would have marked it as five stars...I absolutely loved Yolanda!!! She was extremely professional and pointed me in the right direction! The only thing that I found upsetting is that the insurance is required. So the internet pricing seems very deceptive because of the "hidden fees" like the insurance fee and the one time administrative fee.

It was her voice that initially drew me in over the phone: professional tone, authoritative, and honest. I was just curious to see who this individual was that sounded like they should be doing voice-overs for commercials. So I drove over to the PS on Dolton Road, and I got the opportunity to meet the manager, Kinney. She was even more charismatic in person and I was impressed how she handled the clients like she was a stock holder in the REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust), that owns the company, Public Storage, headquatered in Glendale California. Before I knew it, we were laughing and talking as we rode on the golf cart to view a possible storage space. I loved the spaced she chose as its always been a lucky number for me. She gave me the keys to the space, we went back to the office, signed the contract and I was off to pack up my belongings. It wasn't until I returned with a full truck, and movers in 90 degree weather that I realized that I couldn't find the keys to the storage space. And, it was after hours on a Saturday. Luckily, PS was open on Sunday and I phoned Kinney and left a message panicking that I couldn't find my keys. She called back right away and told me she had found them still in the golf cart. The only problem I had was the movers couldn't come back to finish until after the office was closed. I couldn't come to get the keys before the office closed. Kinney informed me not to worry and put them in an envelope and put them in a safe place until I could arrive. This is my first time using a storage facility in decades and I've heard many horror stories. But this facility stands head and shoulders above the rest, even within this company. Because of Kinney's dedication and professionalism, I can rest peacefully at night knowing my belongings are in a safe place. Thanks Kinney for such an incredible job and you really should consider doing Improvisation. You have the personality, the charisma, and definitely the voice. Best regards,

Upon my arrival I expected to have an excellent experience. I received several reminder emails along with a phone call to ensure my check in would be ran smoothly. Honesty speaking checking in for my unit rental was in fact a breeze however, the customer service I received from the store manager was very unpleasant. Absolutely no personality, no smile, no engagement, and no happiness, just plain old blah. In fact I asked her was she a morning person because I didn't know whether she woke up on the wrong side of the bed or if that was just how she greeted and interacted with her customers. The gentleman working beside her seemed more happy to help me than her. Which in my opinion should have been the other way around if she was the store manager. Kudos to her employee for being more willing to help me and was much more pleasant than her. Because had he not this store location would have lost my business as well as had a bad word of mouth experience from me.

Finding and renting self storage facilities in Thornton, 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 Thornton, 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 Thornton, 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 Thornton?

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.


Storage units near recreational areas like Wampum Lake Woods or busy roads like U.S. Route 6 often have higher rates because of their prime locations and easy access. These places are popular for short- and long-term rentals, especially during peak seasons when demand is high.

On the other hand, storage facilities on quieter residential streets, like Margaret Street or near community landmarks such as Thornton Fractional South High School, usually have lower rates. These facilities often attract local residents looking for reliable, affordable storage close to home.
