Public Storage Self-Storage Units at 1711 W Fullerton Ave, Chicago, IL

Pros: It’s clean, secure, easy to manage your account, and the staff are generally helpful. Cons: They lure you in with a promo rate but gradually increase the rate at an increasing percentage the longer you stay - I had first moved in back in May of 2021 and my rate was around $85-90/month. I officially moved out in Sept of 2024 because it had ballooned to $230-$240 a month, an increase of around 175%. That’s way more than the rate of inflation and a monthly rate higher than anything stated on the website.

Very pleasant and smooth experience with Public Storage on Fullerton. Bill was very helpful and great to work with!

Had a pleasant experience moving to a smaller storage unit. Bill in the local office was very friendly and helpful. He showed me the two available units so I could pick one. He handled the transfer paperwork quickly so I did not have to wait. Thanks for making it easy!

Bill was very helpful throughout my stay. I recommend this location.

Bill gave me the best customer service

Bill is wonderful. The facility is very clean.

Bill was a great help getting us set up with a new unit. Felt bad that his lunch went cold while got us squared away.

Only difficulty is after loading your cart onto the elevator you need to stop the elevator doors from closing while you're outside the elevator typing in your code in order to allow it to go up. Otherwise, great service.

I am severely disappointed in how I have been treated by this company. When I signed up for a storage unit here, I signed up as a brand new customer and received a promotion that my first month's rent would be $1. On move in day, I also paid for an additional month's rent, which should've taken me to the end of the year. Upon moving in, I immediately realized that the unit I was moving into was too small. I never stepped foot into the initial unit and upgraded to a bigger unit at the front desk within 5 minutes of paying for the initial unit. I also immediately paid the difference between the two units. After the payment, I showed the front desk worker that my mobile app showed me that my next payment was due 12/1/2022. She assured me that it was a lag in the system and it would eventually update to show my next payment was due 1/1/23. This never updated and once 12/1 passed, I began to receive emails and texts that I had a late payment. I immediately brought this up to the front desk worker who could help me in no way and recommended I contact customer service. When calling customer service, it is all automated and it is impossible to speak to an actual person. Your only choice is to talk to someone over chat. The first person I talked with on 12/2 told me he had opened up a claim on my account and that a supervisor would be calling me within a couple days. No one ever called me. On 12/6, I talked to an additional person over chat who told me that my December rent was due in full because the $1 promotion was only available to new customers and when I transferred unit's, it voided the promotion as I was no longer a "new customer". I explained to him time and time again that I upgraded within 5 minutes and never even stepped foot into my initial unit. He said that the time in which the transfer takes place does not matter. NO ONE ever explained this to me. I was then forced to pay $165 in full for my December payment as I would then received late fees if I waited until 12/7. This is such a shame being a brand new customer that they cannot even honor a promotion when I never even used the first unit. I was completely screwed for upgrading to a bigger unit. It is blatantly obvious they care more about money than a happy client. UPDATE: Stephanie, the district manager, called me and gave me a full refund on the $165 today. I’m very appreciate of this, however, I wish a resolution was easier to come by.

Betty had helped me out more than anybody at public storage hire more Bettys. Wish I rented from rgus location instead of shiller park.

I came in to pay my bill I rent in Howard hights was upset about rent increase Betty was very patient and explaining how the rent works and assisted me with keeping it at 122. Thank you very much Betty I appreciate you

Bill really helped me out in getting additional storage room! Very friendly and informative.

BILL IS AN AWESOME GUY. HE DID EVERYTHING PERFECTLY FOR MY WIFE TO SECURE A CLEAN SECURED STORAGE AT THE FACILITY

With Bill's help I was able to make a last minute switch to a larger storage unit. Also, Bill stayed past closing time to assist me with my updated rental agreement and to help me locate my unit. Thank you, Bill!

This storage facility is the best I have worked with. Bill has been my contact person and he made the whole process easy and seamless. I will be staying with this location now because they’ve done a good job with my items. Would recommend.

Bill was so accommodating and worked with our business move to make the process as smooth as possible. He’s an excellent employee that has the most positive attitude and enjoyable to work with.

Bill always helped me with best customer service. 🙂

Bill was super helpful and we quickly got my unit vacated and locked up. It was a convenient and well priced storage plus for the summer.

Bill helped me out while moving from wrigleyville. I had nowhere to park my U-Haul during a cubs game and they were very understanding. I was able to park my truck on site over night so i could prepare another load, a small kindness but it meant a lot. Would recommend 100%

Bill is the best! He saved my TV and helped me out big time today! Great storage place!

Bill at Public Storage has been super easy going and generous each time we've spoken- whether it's answering questions or helping make special arrangements for moving out of my storage unit. Really appreciate his help! No complaints about this past year using Public Storage.

If you are looking for a great place for storage near the City of Chicago, I highly recommend Public Storage at 1711. W. Fullerton. Bill is awesome and very helpful and assisted with a unit when I was moving my things from out of State. The facility is safe and clean and has 24/7 accessibility.

I kept getting the run around with other places. However Bill was very helpful and thorough. I definitely appreciate his help and professionalism. Thanks bill !

The storage units are well maintained and the facility as well, Bill was a great help getting us setup with another unit and checking in to make sure everything was going as planned. Thank you

Stay clear of this “bait and switch” company! Forget that the staff is hardly around and that they are the only ones that can get you a cart (they lock them in the office) or the fact the building is like a mouse maze and you will get lost! … After 3 months, without warning or explanation they will raise your bill they mention in the paperwork “prices may be subject to change” but nothing about 4 months later. “Only $$$ a month”… ok not the best but oh well, then boom! $30 price hike! And when you ask for a justification, again… crickets! Stay away find a company that is transparent about their rates and forthcoming about what to expect. This is not Public Storage.

Bill helped me out and it was great! Awesome customer experience.

I was looking at a few places for a storage unit around Chicago and this one was by far the best. The facility is clean and was the only place that had a unit the size I needed. It’s a good price as well. Bill helped me out and he was super nice and helpful. He was knowledgeable and professional and it puts my mind at ease knowing someone like that is at the facility where I’m storing important items.

Super easy to sign up and move in! They have 4-wheel dollies available to make it easy to move everything in one trip. Highly recommend!

Bill was very helpful with setting up and everything!

Bill was so friendly and helpful getting me into the right unit. Excellent customer service!

Bill is amazing he need a raise for sure

Popped in on a Saturday afternoon without an appointment. Bill was on-site and able to show me 3 different storage units that were available. I rented one unit and was in-and-out in under 30 minutes. Bill was friendly and easy to work with.

I had a rough day with the moving company. But when I came to the storage place, Bill was awesome. He helped me set up my room and online account. He was very attentive and nice. I really appreciate your help Bill. Thank you sir.

We run a small nonprofit in Chicago. We received a notification that the rent on our unit was going to increase. Bill at the W Fullerton location was great to work with and helped us avoid that additional rent charge under the circumstances!

Bill gave great customer service

I had an issue with my account and Bill was very helpful in resolving it and setting me up with my unit.
