Read some helpful reviews of Lock Up Self Storage, The at 5250 Golf Road, shared by real renters with genuine experiences and honest opinions.

I moved from Florida to Skokie within the past few weeks. When my possessions arrived, I realized I needed a storage unit ASAP. I moved to the Optima Old Orchard right around the corner and figured it was convenient. I met Chris yesterday. Chris is an incredible person to work with. Extremely professional, extremely reasonable price, and so much more. When I told him my needs, he didn't waste my time. Knowing I was legit driving less than 0.2 miles in total, he really took care of me when I rented the truck. I got a chance just to speak with him person to person. He is one down to earth individual, very polite and very solid conversations. He deserves a promotion for sure! In regards to the storage unit, I was very pleased. It was snowing outside today and customers have the ability to park indoors in the loading bay area. Coming from Florida, I've never seen anything like that before. My car got to thaw out from all the freezing weather while I offloaded my possessions. The units are temperature controlled and very clean! ... Read more

I have been working with this location for over 3 years now and I have never had a bad experience. Carl and his staff are pleasant, polite, and great to work with. The location itself has ample parking both indoor and outdoor and the place is kept extremely tidy. I have been to other facilities, outside “The Lock Up” group, and they are not even in the same ball park of comparison. I would recommend this place for anyone who is looking for affordable, clean, and climate controlled storage! ... Read more

Great customer service is hard to find these days but not at The Lockup Self Storage in Skokie. Carl the manager exceeded our expectations on that end. The facility itself is immaculate, very well lit, secure and a first rate operation. By far the best storage facility we've ever rented from! We had two storage units there and couldn't have been happier with the exceptional service and professionalism demonstrated by Carl and his team in attending to our storage needs. They go the extra mile. We've had several different storage units at other facilities in the past, none that come close to comparing to this one. If you are looking for storage facility, look no further. You won't be disappointed! ... Read more
Mike K. - 24 October 2013
Just moved after 25 years! Carl Faulkner (manager) helped make my decision to store my condo furnishings at his location due to his good-natured, cooperative spirit, and follow-through to notify me of a single 10x15 unit, just when it became available. The facility is extremely clean, well lit, and secure. I am storing for an indefinite time, but I have every confidence my property is safe and easily accessible. I also appreciate the box and wrapping supplies readily available on site, as well as the ease of parking. ... Read more

The storage units offered by Lock Up Self Storage, The - 5250 Golf Road can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 25 to 350 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.

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!
