six stars out of a maximum 5 above and beyond ???????????? Millie, Rhamel and Anthony, and staff, always with a smile and always approachable and ready and willing to assist. Honestly for me it was a challenge to store my valuable possessions in a storage facility and to trust the staff. Yet, I know for certain, that “come he#% or high water” Millie and Rhamel and Anthony, and staff will be there 100% for me and my belongings. They also laugh at my bad jokes. lol rates are very reasonable, it is super clean, and it is a convenient location. I arrive by subway, but the facility is well situated for driving there. Thank you all for the peace of mind. Andrew ... Read more

GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE VERY CLEAN FACILITY.........I came into Public Storage one day feeling very down, just looking for a place to store my belongings. By the time I left, my spirit was completely lifted! Every time I come in to pay my bill, the energy is always positive and welcoming.I also want to mention how clean and well-kept this location is it really makes a difference and shows how much pride the staff take in their work. I had the pleasure of meeting Matt, the Senior District Manager, and his customer service perfectly matched that of his amazing team. My favorite people here are Anthony and Raha they go above and beyond every time and truly deserve a big bonus. I can’t say enough good things about this Public Storage. If you’re looking for a safe, spotless, and uplifting place to store your items, don’t hesitate this is the place to go ... Read more

I set up my account through Public Storage’s online customer service. I explained to the agent who I spoke with that: i. I needed a small box to store six 52lb boxes ii. A shipper was going to be delivering my things iii. I needed the spot for two weeks The person booked a very large unit and assured me that Public Storage receives shipper deliveries every time, and I’ll be good. Plus I can always cancel at no penalty. This was a phone call and the agent was persistent.. so I signed the document on the phone. The interesting part: On August 21, I got a call from an uncouth staff of the 31-08 Northern Boulevard location, informing me that the shipper was with my things and I need to be available right now to pick it up. I explain that I’m at work, but I can be there in 15 minutes… please help me hold the six 52lb boxes. The agent who sold me this unit said it’s okay. She starts speaking out of manner… She goes: you spoke to an agent, but this is the property and we “don’t” receive people’s packages. I’m like I don’t know what to do, I’m working off the info I got from your colleague, and she goes you had a lease document. Why didn’t you read it. She said I’ll have to figure it out. Long story short, the shipper returned six 52lb boxes back to my Chicago shipping address. I called this location to explain what happened and the rude supervisor’s retort was “so do you want me to vacate the unit?” I said vacate the unit, and please I want a complete refund. The supervisor goes “you are not getting no refund asides from the lock fee” and hangs up. I don’t know who is ready for the stress and pain I’ve been through with these folks, but in my life, I would never be using them again.. There are better options. ... Read more

I've used other storage sites on Northern Blvd and this is by far the best. The staff is excellent. Recently I moved up to a larger room and was helped by Christina.

Comparing to another self storage facility I frequently use, this PS is nothing but BETTER!! Super courteous service, knowledgeable and friendly staffs, convenient location, clean and airy units, easy self access, and booking online is a breeze. Most importantly the rental fee is at least 40% cheaper! The only downside is not 24/7 access. Everything else is fantastic. ... Read more

My friend is in the middle of moving and find new apartment, so she need the place to store her stuff. I found this location is near area she want to live and the price is better than another storage in the area. The reception was ok but too lazy to be adjusting and not flexible if any changing request. Small garage area can fit several cars for temporary loading. they have a good big elevator can fit 3 big Platform Truck. The place pretty secured and have limit of time to go in and out. The light and temperature are automatically control by the system. It is a bit creepy if you go to get stuff in your storage alone because it will be nobody there. ... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions

There is a wide array of amenities available for the storage units that Manhattan Mini Storage - 31-08 Northern Blvd has to offer. These amenities include Climate-Controlled, Indoor, Onsite Manager, Contactless Renting, Security Camera, 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 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!
