The five stars is purely for KIM!! I don’t understand why after a few months Public Storage would increase my monthly storage fee by over $20.00. I tried called customer service repeatedly to find out why it increased. Ended up turning off the auto pay until I figured it out. When you call the automated service runs you in circles. It convey that a representative is available online or on the app. I couldn’t find where neither online or the app. It wanted me to call the location which I did, but no one was in office , and I knew from the sign o. The door they wouldn’t be in the next day either. I had no way to find out what was going on. Kim in the office was the utmost helpful! She referenced an email notification that was supposedly sent Nov 23. But, I searched my email, including all mail I received from public storage, and the rental increase notice was not there. She was able to submit an application after I made the increased payment, as it was due being the 2nd, to decrease the amount. Which was successful and I appreciate immensely. Any time I’ve went in and spoken with her, she made things so much easier and exhausts all possibilities to be of help. And time I’ve called customer service, I’m never properly taken care of. ...

Property manager was extremely helpful but most importantly showed great care and was kind in that help. Often times when interacting with others, while it is their job to assist, they give you attitude and don’t seem to really want to help. Kim however was the complete opposite and did much more than what is expected in her role in sure! ... Read more

They increased our rent from $73 to $122 without notice and when I tried to talk to their customer service about why we are paying that much for a 5x10 when there is a 10x10 listed for only $66 a month they said that their rent will always go up even if other units around it are a different price. They said they do not negotiate or price match their rentals and that the only way we could get that price is to cancel the contract with that rental and do a new one. This is very bad customer service if you ask me and definitely shows they are just out to get all the money they can scam out of people. They did try to offer me a discounted rate of only $98 a month but I've heard from other sources that the email they are supposed to send with all the details never come. I guess we will se but we probably are going to be moving storage units ... Read more

Lori, the manager, was simply fantastic. She was genuinely a kind and caring person. She helped me understand and feel at ease with the entire process and showed me multiple units to make sure I got exactly what was needed. Absolutely recommend this location and Lori's expertise. ... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions

There is a wide array of amenities available for the storage units that Public Storage - 5519 Illinois Road has to offer. These amenities include Drive-Up Access, Retail Available, Onsite Manager, Contactless Renting, Security Camera, Gate, Parking, Credit Cards Accepted, First Floor Access, Online Payment and RV Storage. 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 Public Storage - 5519 Illinois Road can satisfy all of your storage needs. Different sizes here range from 50 to 250 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 Public Storage - 5519 Illinois Road come at a variety of prices, starting from $56 per month for typically smaller units. However, larger spaces can set you back up to $127 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!
