    Read some helpful reviews of StorSafe Self Storage, 8405 South Illinois Route 31, Cary, IL 60013, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

    UPDATE – April 1, 2026: My monthly rent has now increased to $394. Be very careful with StorSafe’s advertised pricing. In my experience, the online promotional price did not reflect what I ended up paying over time. For example, I rented at an advertised online rate of $216 per month on May 1, 2025. Just five months later, beginning October 1, the rate increased to $253, which is roughly a 17% increase. After adding the required insurance, my total monthly cost became about $281. Now the monthly rent has climbed even further to $394. These increases seem excessive to me compared with normal inflation, and I believe customers should be clearly warned that significant price increases can happen shortly after renting. The contract may technically allow these changes, but that does not make the pricing practice feel fair or transparent. I would strongly recommend that anyone considering StorSafe ask specifically how often rates can increase and by how much before signing anything. The advertised introductory price may not be a good indication of what you will actually be paying several months later. UPDATE: StorSafe responded publicly saying they wanted to help resolve the situation. I had already contacted them and asked to speak with a manager. I spoke with Oscar, who told me I would receive two months of credit because I had not received proper notice of the substantial rate increase. Unfortunately, approximately 2–3 months have now passed and I still have not received the promised credit. That experience made the situation even more frustrating. A company’s response to a review sounds reassuring, but what matters to me is whether the promised resolution actually happens. Based on my experience, I would not rent from StorSafe again. ...

    I had no choice but to put my vehicle up for storage. I caught StorSafe online, and considering they were the most reasonably priced, I chose them. Set up for the account was easy. The insurance liability was fairly cheap. They were extremely helpful when I asked questions, and at that from a mobile state on my part, so they pretty much handled everything smoothly. When I received my vehicle again, account closing went well also. Very nice, helpful people when needed. I have rented from others, and StorSafe has been the best. Highly recommended. ... Read more

    Signing up on line using your phone was a little hard to do, doing it on a home computer may of been better especially because there is a lot of info to go thru. First day in the storage facility was fine, gates worked as advertised and the stalls were somewhat clean. Going forward I would tell friends to go there. ... Read more

    I originally rented a unit at a different facility managed by the same people. That unit did not meet my standards at all. I asked for full refund and was given a full refund. I ended up renting a unit from a different location they had and I’m very pleased. The managers have been very helpful and made sure that I was taken care of. The new unit in Cary was just what I needed. Thanks for working with me on my situation I had . Only problem I had was mice. Lots of mice. I purchased multiple traps and still had them around. I wish they had a lot more mice traps around the property. ... Read more

    Marc is amazing! The whole process took very little time and I did it all over the phone with him and he was very thorough! He was very professional and got me in my large 10x30 unit in the matter of 15 minutes! So the facility is very well run and very secure and so convenient! I just called him back today to rent another 10x20 unit! Keep up the great work! Just awesome!!!!!! Highly recommend ... Read more
