Leaving only 2 stars due to the business not prorating the rent for moving out mid-month. Giving them more than enough notice on 11/6 moving out 12/15. They ask to be notified when it is swept out to make ready for the next tenant. Fair, only if they credit the tenant that is no longer in the unit. This is poor customer service my opinion. Double dipping when it is not necessary. Do better. ... Read more

This business is ran horrendously, absolutely do not do business with them. 1) Leased me a space that didn’t exist 2) My account was on auto-pay.. they stopped access to my storage due to non-payment… 3) Terminated my lease because they’re building more storage in the spot of my current lease Seriously, avoid the headache and go to one of the other 20 storage businesses in the area. ...

I am recommending to anyone looking for a storage unit to consider South Milwaukee Self Storage. This is the second time I am leasing a unit. Michelle and Joann provided assistance with selecting the correct size unit for my needs. It was a seamless process to obtain a unit with immediate access and complete the documents via email. The facility and unit are secure, well lit, easy to access, and clean. Their prices are reasonable, plus I was offered a $25 coupon to use towards my 1st month’s rent. If the location is good for you, consider leasing from So Milwaukee Self Storage. ... Read more

I can’t say enough good things about this storage company. I have used many storage units over the years and this company is by far the best. Nice, friendly staff. Clean unit. Safe and secure facility. Easy to drive around. They are also very upfront about they do not insure my belongings and encouraged me to purchase insurance. I stored at a different company a few years back and had some problems with moisture seeping into my boxes from the concrete floor. They said it was my problem. Had I known about his I would have purchased. Insurance is cheap and well worth it! ... Read more

Frequently Asked Questions

There is a wide array of amenities available for the storage units that South Milwaukee Self Storage - 1005 Columbia Avenue has to offer. These amenities include Climate-Controlled, Indoor, 24 hour access, Drive-Up Access, Onsite Manager, Security Camera, Gate, Parking, Credit Cards Accepted, 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!
