    We were very happy with the great service we received from Jamie and from John in cleaning out and…read moreclosing a locker within 3 weeks for an exwife. They both helped us with several situations, gave advice for donating, and tips for a fast cleanout. Jamie was friendly and helpful and cared about our newly-acquired storage locker situation. She also discovered that the door was broken when it was lifted and she ordered the repair, which was completed a few days later. John helped to get the lock cut off so we could temporarily add a new one and updated the storage account. Jamie and John are to be commended for their excellent customer service at Public Storage.

    NOTE: I believe this location seems to have 2 listings on yelp. One listed under Main Pl and this…read moreone on St Charles Ave. This is the proper location for the storage as it is also the location of where the main office is located. Used this location for our first ever storage rental while moving into a new home. Would not rent from Public Storage again (not just this location). The Good: The app to check in and move in was convenient, as was using the app to unlock the gate. Unit was clean and about what we'd expect. The Bad: *Check-in:* For the most part we didn't have to interact with anyone as we checked in and rented via the app. However on arrival we were having issues with the code we were given and couldnt get into the facility. Had to wait for someone to come around to give us a new code. They had issues getting us a new working code and we went through a cycle of 2-3 code before finally getting it to work. Not sure if it was the employee or their software, but the staff seemed equally flustered. *Check-out:* We "checked out" via the app. Note that check out is in quotes as we later found out, it really doesn't do much. It notifies the staff of your "intent to move out" but it never executes the move out. YOU MUST GO INTO THE OFFICE TO CHECKOUT!.  Sure Its nice that it notifies them of the intent to checkout but that really doesnt amount to much. I can intend to move out today. And days can go by and nothing happens. Its like a reminder to yourself more than anything. We found out about this little easter egg 2 weeks later when we were hit with another bill & a late fee. Looking at the app after receving the notice via email, I saw a banner still stating something like "Checkout scheduled for 9/26/2021" which was now about 2 weeks in the past. After calling around and trying to get things figured out, (why hasnt the checkout completed? Why am I getting a bill?) that's when we learned this "checkout" was not actually a checkout and just an "intent to move out". Now we are hit with a ~$200 bill for an extended service we never intended to use and had never utilized, which up until now, thought we had canceled 2 weeks ago. We were able to get through the whole check in process without interacting with anyone, why wouldn't the checkout have been the same. We had to go into the location to checkout and pay these fees and do out checkout 2 weeks later. I'm still not sure why they offer the checkout via the app when it doesn't do anything of value aside from a "notice of intent to move out" which ultimately means absolutely nothing. *Customer Support* It is hard to reach customer support. If you want to reach an employee at the office its somewhat easier though they have to cover a large property so you usually end up on voice mail with a call back later. Calling into their support lines is difficult. Their live chat gave me an answering bot that allowed me to only communicate for renting a new unit or managing an existing unit (which I no longer had). Going through prompts for an existing unit yielded no results and was a dead end as my unit was never found via the auto lookups. I eventually got through to some kind of billing support by going through the options to setup a new unit. All in all, we had an unpleasant experience and wish we would've just gone and paid the few extra bucks to get a rental with a local company rather than public storage. In the end, the app does nothing to simplify the rental process and rather seems to be a means for them to obfuscate the checkout process and skim more profits off the customers who are ending their service with them. Staff seemed friendly from our interactions but its unfortunate that the processes and technology in place seems to provide so much of a negative light on their workplace.

The exit gate is not automatic. Nobody mentioned that you have to get out of your vehicle, walk to the building, and enter your pin to open the gate to leave. I wish someone had communicated that because I was incredibly frustrated and couldn't get a hold of the office, although I tried calling multiple times and left voicemails. Laura was exceptional, with a charisma and kindness that were truly remarkable. She was a joy to work with and to talk to, consistently brightening our day with her positive attitude. Her professionalism and genuine care made every interaction enjoyable, leaving a lasting impression on everyone she met.

My private insurance won't cover it bc the damage wasn't caused by hail or any of that. The beam above the tote was VERY rusted to the point of there being separation. All the shoes are covered in black mold and had been submerged. The tote collected all the water that fell from the faulty ceiling.Like I said, this was not due to carelessness on my end. Id been with CS for several years and had no issues. They basically said nothing they can do bc I didnt have the stores insurance. Why would I pay for something i already had?? One would expect flooding but not leaking from a roof. When I say expensive I'm talking about Versace, YSL,Michael Kors, etc. They said they'd call thier maintenance man and get back to me. But basically nothing they can do. Id rented with them for several years and up until this instance, its been good. I want to say the manager is awesome and friendly. I know she was only doing what Cube Smart says they should do and say and the situation was completely out of her hands. She does an amazing job and is very friendly. I'm not mad at her but at how CS handles these situations.

Through a series of events that required short prep time under a lot of pressure, both Judy and Steve rose to the occasion and exceeded all expectations. I managed to do a couple of estimates before hand and GoMini's combined with Glen Ellyn came in ahead over the other's who seemed not as motivated for the business or resting on their laurels. In the end, we did a local move with the surplus going to a Go Mini's container. The team that showed up on move day led by Jason was Brian , Don and Joe who did an extraordinary job. They were hard working, honest, trustworthy ultimately they packed that 16 foot pod solid eliminating the need for a second container. They made this effort as painless as could be under the month from hell. These companies together are a winning combination well worth your business.....Give them a chance, you won't be disappointed

The driver whom he almost hit was constantly beeping, warning the truck driver that they were switching lanes too quickly and without using a turn signal, yet they continued driving carelessly. I even pulled over to make sure the driver of the first vehicle was okay because the whole situation was so concerning. It's such a shame how careless some people can be behind the wheel. Driving distracted puts everyone around you in danger. Do better!
