Read some helpful reviews of Safeguard Self Storage at 1353 South Wabash Avenue, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

Just recently I ran into a new employee who had an attitude towards me and seemed to be frustrated with helping me get a new storage space. I've been here multiple times and I was just very shocked at my experience this time. I don't normally leave reviews but I felt this was something to address ... Read more

I would highly recommend Milosz. He was great. He said to me (with a straight face)..."I know times are tough, but try to practice self love." He could tell i had been crying, earlier. Such a kind gesture; and I'm a nurse. I usually tell my patients that, but he was encouraging ME! Thank you for that! ... Read more

I came in the other day looking at storage options because I wasn’t sure what size would best fit my needs. Milosz at the front counter was so helpful and patient with me! Walked me through the steps to pick a unit for my needs and my budget. I ended up not choosing a unit right away but I will definitely be back. I would recommend this place to anyone! Conveniently locate. I liked that it as an unloading area especially for this part of the city. ... Read more

Mike took my call to reserve storage at the end of his day, with out rushing through my questions, and then mapped out for me which lockers would be best, and then when signing in person the team was ready and available to tour the facility making sure I was acclimated and and comfortable. ...

These amenities include Climate-Controlled, Indoor, 24 hour access, Drive-Up Access, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Contactless Renting, Security Camera, Credit Cards Accepted, Elevators, First Floor Access, Multi-Level Storage and Online Payment. Most of these amenities can prove to be very useful depending on what you need to store. For example, climate-controlled units can come in handy for keeping sensitive items, drive-up access can make your loading and unloading process easier, and extra security measures will ensure your items are kept safe at all times.

The storage units offered by Safeguard Self Storage - 1353 South Wabash Avenue can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 20 to 300 square feet. You can go for smaller units if you don't have a lot of items to store, while choosing a larger space is recommended in case you need to store a lot of furniture, bigger items or even vehicles.

The unit size that you should choose obviously depends on how much stuff you need to store. On the one hand, you should think of smaller units (5'x5' or 5'x10') as closets – they can be used to store chairs, lamps, moving boxes and sports equipment, along with smaller pieces of furniture, books and documents.

On the other hand, the 10'x10' and 10'x15' spaces are good for storing larger items of furniture, bicycles and a larger number of possessions. If you need even more space, then 10'x20' and 10'x30' units can easily accommodate the contents of an entire 3- or 4-bedroom house.

Storage units offered by Safeguard Self Storage - 1353 South Wabash Avenue come at a variety of prices, starting from $24 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $799 a month.

We know that when it comes to self storage, there is nothing more important than quickness and accessibility. Drive-up access is an extremely convenient amenity, as you can park your vehicle right next to your unit, making it significantly easier to load and unload the items you will use storage for. However, drive-up storage units tend to be outdoors, so you might consider indoor storage spaces with climate control if you're looking to keep temperature-sensitive items in peak condition.

Yes, you might, depending on what you need to put in storage. Climate-controlled spaces keep temperatures and humidity levels consistent all the time, which means they are perfect for storing sensitive items. Seeing that a whole host of things can be damaged by varying temperatures and excessive moisture, many people choose to rent climate-controlled units for personal items such as documents, photographs, paintings, collectibles, electronics, wooden furniture, antiques and even vehicles. If you're looking to store such items that are valuable to you, consider renting a climate-controlled unit!
