The staff was wonderful, answered all of my questions, and made the process easy.
Jeremy Roark
Girls that work in office are great. Helpful and efficient.
Rob Befumo
Staff was super helpful and on top of communications, confirming appointments, and filling out paperwork. My 7x10 unit was upgraded for free, and the unit I received was in a great location and easy to access.
Robert Cox
The online process of reserving was straightforward and quick. Move-in was smooth with a minor glitch about the lock which was quickly handled.
Tommy Jegier
Front desk workers were very friendly and helpful. Rental process was very straightforward. Excellent service.

Shannon Ryan
Amazing customer service and very clear on all the details. Included a move in van which saved us a ton. Great people and great facility.
Blake Bogdanovich
I had a great experience moving in. Ciera at the front desk had the paper work ready and was clear and helpful on the information that I needed. I was easily able to find parking, the move in was quick & painless, and it was good price for the unit.
Lixette
Ciara is extremely professional and a spectacular problem solver. She has a wonderful disposition and is very very helpful. Thank you, Lisette
Linda Biondi
Ciera showed me two possible units, helped me with a lock issue, and was patient in explaining the key code. I'd recommend this facility because of her!
Rebecca
I rented the unit to store my sonテ「竄ャ邃「s stuff over the summer. The process from finding the location online, called the customer service line with questions, filling out the paperwork and moving in went very well. Once I made my reservation, I received emails to confirm. On the move-in date, the process to see a unit and fill out the paperwork was slow due to Covid restrictions. The staff in the office were very efficient, friendly and responsive. The move in went quickly despite the fact that it was a busy Saturday. I would rent here again.
Abigail
Super friendly and helpful staff! Very easy, cheap and straight forward:)
Dawn
Super friendly and patient staff. Clean and straightforward. Competitive prices.

Basic unit and service, nothing wonderful, but provides us with what we need.
Aaron
Everything was Good, I had a good experience from start to finish
Erica
We moved into self storage 1 on a Saturday and had incredible service. The staff was very professional, funny, and tended to all of our needs, especially the store manager, Colin. They were extremely flexible and organized. The truck they lent us was so extremely helpful and we couldnテ「竄ャ邃「t have been more grateful for it!
Anthony
The customer service at this facility is fantastic. The place is clean, well-maintained and they let us use their moving truck for free! Could not have asked for a better experience.

Everything about this facility met my needs. They allowed me a chance to switch the rental size after viewing them, provided me a tour and access instructions, very good customer service.
Lorraine
Had all I needed for storage purposes and move in - could fit my uhaul van in the garage, asked them for help multiple times, and there were plenty of carts and elevators for quick moving.
Kayia
We worked with a woman at the facility and she was amazing! Took her time helping us and had a great attitude and personality.
Kimberly
I highly recommend this storage to others. As we live out of state and are storing our college student's apartment belongings for the summer, we did not know much about storage in Chicago. The manager of this facility, Colin, was very professional and extremely helpful. The facility is very efficient for moving in items, very secure, and extremely clean. Everyone working at this business was so nice. Again, I highly recommend this facility if you have storage needs.
Katia
Had a fantastic experience with Sparefoot, and Self-Storage 1!
Hope
See my comments at google review. Highly recommended
Jay
The online application, courteous staff, accurate unit sizing and secure building suited my storage needs.
Priscilla
The staff was very friendly and helpful and did a wonderful job at adjusting/customizing service to fit my needs.
Mark
Couldnテ「竄ャ邃「t be happier with this company. Everyone I spoke to on the phone and at the front desk weテ「竄ャ邃「re very friendly and helpful...they even suggested a smaller (cheaper) unit once I described what I planned on storing. The key amenities are all there...security, temperature control (between 55-85 degrees), three unloading spots with carts and elevators, easy to find parking nearby, and the use of a free moving truck for moving stuff in!! (within a ten mile radius) And with all that said I was expecting a higher rate but was very surprised and happy to see it was significantly lower than other quotes I saw. Was easily a no brainer to store my stuff with them.
Erika Gideon
The staff is great, the process is quick and access to your unit is exceptional.
Molly
Great space with several options to choose from for an affordable price.
Laura
I've been using Self Storage 1 for almost a year and haven't had any issues. The price is very competitive for the area, the facility is clean, and they have early morning/late night access hours which makes it convenient to swing by before or after work. The automatic bill pay is convenient, too.
D.J. Paris
I pretty much never write reviews, but I have to say, this company is awesome. Even though I'm only giving them $70 a month, you'd think I was their most important customer. I even used their enthusiasm as an example to help our own support reps at my firm! Great company. No reason to look elsewhere.
Elizabeth Villanueva
I have been a customer since 2013 management has worked with me on the monthly price. This is one of the main reasons I have been a long time customer. Good service always.
michelle rudas
good facility, good location, helpful staff
Patti
Clean facilities - and a staff that literally will go out of their way to help.
MJ
Great place, they always have deals to keep people coming inn. staff is great and space is pretty efficient.
Kyle
The space was perfect, they got me in and signed up in less than 15 minutes. David was so helpful and explained everything and made this such a simple and painless experience. I HIGHLY recommend this place if you need a storage space, so helpful, fun, and nice.
Vicki Rubenstein
I was helping my son, who was moving from out-of-town to the LIncoln Park area, find a convenient storage location. Since I myself was out of state, I was particularly pleased with the personal attention we received over the phone to make the whole process go smoothly. Everyone was so helpful, it made us feel like we were in good hands. My son has had absolutely no issues with Self Storage 1-Lincoln Park! GREAT facility!
Sam
Very professional and secure storage spot located in the heart of Chicago. Recommend this to anyone looking for a storage space.
Ron Cain
The service and professionalism is awesome. Staff is very helpful. Definitely a great value fr the price.
Maxx Walters
It was very reasonably priced. I loved the customer service, and Iテ「竄ャ邃「m overall very satisfied with my experience at Self Storage. I would recommend to anyone.
Gloria
The specials are good but once you are done with the promotional period the prices are so high. There should be specials for people that are current customers.
Betoshini
Great value for money and convenient building with elevators
Charles
Clean, appears secure, staff was friendly and helpful, reasonably priced.
Elizabeth
The customer service at Self Storage 1 is top notch! I showed up 10 minutes before closing on a Friday to check in to my unit, and the staff members were so kind and patient-- they stayed late to answer my questions and make sure that I was satisfied with the unit. Easily accessible facility-- moving in the contents of a 1 bedroom apartment was much faster than expected. Would definitely recommend!
Lauren
I can't recommend Self Storage 1 highly enough - the employees are extremely helpful and personable, and struck me as totally dedicated to getting me exactly what I needed from a storage facility. The location is perfect for those of us living in too-small apartments in Wicker Park or Lincoln Park, and the facility is exceptionally secure.
Darren
So far, it seems like a great place & don't expect that to change. Good staff & options & procedures.
Zeba
Super friendly staff and easy procedure to reserve!
Linda
The staff was exceptionally helpful, knowledgable and very happy and pleasant. The only issue was that the location that I had initially thought I reserved online was not actually available the unit we ended up having to take was much more inconvenient as far as location.
Thalia
Made the moving process easy!
John
Great facility and I'm happy with my choice.
Ron
Amazed at how courteous and friendly the staff is. They take you step by step in the process and assure you have all you need. They frequently offered drinks and information. The facility is very clean and well layed out. These guys are awesome at customer service!!
Ralph
Self storage is self storage. Not a lot of ways to stand out. Sign up took a lot longer than I expected. Was a little annoyed that there is a separate, mandatory $8 insurance fee if you don't have proof of home-owner's or renter's insurance. What if I am not storing anything critical and I want to waive the coverage?
Steven
Friendly staff, a clean environment and a fair price makes this place amazing.
Brian
Very friendly staff, safe and secure building.
Scott
I am impressed with the level of friendly, professional customer service. The facility is spotless and well-maintained. Very satisfied with my decision to store my items here.
Ken
Friendly staff, provided clear explaination of lease terms.
Sonia
Spoke to Giovanni over the phone on Thursday evening and he clearly and patiently answered all of my questions. I was able to move in the next day and I couldn't be happier. The whole process was easy and efficient. Thank you Giovanni for your professionalism and promptness. Would definitively recommend to anyone that lives in the area! #SupportLocalBusiness
Matthew
You don't ever really expect to go to a storage fecility and get taken care of but Emilio did just that. Self Storage was clean, secure and professional. My wife and I had a pleasant experience and enjoyed our conversation with all the guys there. We left floored by how easy it was. We will absolutely send others there. Thanks, E, F and G!!
Tiffany
Haven't used facility yet so I can't revirw
Kyle
Everything was great except because of availability I was in the basement. The basement has an odor to it and doesn't have smooth floors. Only complaint, but for the price and convenience it was worth it.
Abby
No problems. Security is tight, which makes the process difficult but I suppose it's for your own protection.
Desiree
So happy I found them. Super easy to drive in and unload. The units are well lit and decently priced. The staff is very helpful.
John
The guys at the front desk you're very friendly and knowledgeable. The whole building is clean And secure. There've been many updates since I last rented a unit here.

Gets the job done.
Salomon
They are very professional and very helpful. Their facility is one of the cleanest and well organized I have every been to. They are at a great location and they offer a wide variety of sizes to fit the needs of every person. For a facility that is very secure and climate controlled they are very fairly priced and a great value. One of the best!!!

Super cool guys there, really knowledgeable and accommodating. Showed us the unit before signing anything to make sure it was the right size. Security codes for everything so your stuff is safe! And great affordable pricing!
Ry
When exploring self-storage options, this place caught my eye for its reasonable rates. (Also, it's conveniently located for me.) I found the staff to all be very friendly and helpful, as well. As a perk, they offer free use of their truck (15' standard box truck) for your move-in within a 20-mile roundtrip, which was very helpful for me. What a great option. (Note: They lend it for move-ins only, not move-outs.) Overall, very pleased with this place thus far.
Chris
The facility easy to use, has plenty of hand carts. Customer service was good. Hours are reasonable. Price was great for short-term storage.
Patricia
Excellent customer service.
Henry
Self Storage 1 is a great place to keep your belongings. The location on Elston makes it extremely easy to drive trucks in and out of the location. They have convenient access hours and a helpful staff.
Seth Unger
Space is great. Really enjoyed the helpful attention the staff gave us.
Aida
This was my first time moving and finding a storage unit and I couldn't ask for a better facility. The price is incredible, it was close to my house, and he staff was really helpful, supportive and friendly. The unit is clean, very accessible and looks very safe. Managing your reservation is also very convenient and easy (switched from 5x5 to 5x8). Definitely recommend this to everyone.
Ray Barkey
I could have asked for better treatment by the staff newly issue I had was trying to vacuum the large truck, that was nothing that staff could control. The staff are very helpful and professional
