the facility occupies two sides of the street, being a new customer the guy who assisted me did not even bother to tell me which side my assigned unit is located no information regarding my unit at all, this guy thinks all customers are familiar with their facility, there's a lot of storage facilities with a much better customer service.

Seems weird to rate a storage place but this one is far and above my previous experiences. Entire property is immaculately maintained. I rented parking for my RV. The lot was very spacious and easy to maneuver around. Very secure too. Megan who helped me was extremely friendly and very thorough explaining the process.

After a rather exhaustive search I came across pro self storage. Initially from the onset it gave me the feel of an old school self storage together with the cute train caboose to your left as you approach the facility. Once inside I was just in awe at how clean and freshly painted this place is, old school outside pretty modern inside. Okay now let’s get to the customer service part, when I first called I got a hold message and thought oh boy here we go again, these guys probably run the same course as the corporate giants i.e. PS, ESP, UH, Cube, TLU etc. etc. I’ll probably be on hold for 15 min before someone answers or have some annoying bot telling me to press this and press that lol not even a nano second and I was greeted by Antonia and is she amazing! She answered each and every one of my questions, she was thorough did not try to sell me on additional products and services that I really don’t need and she was super patient (Thank you very much Antonia!) if any of the higher ups are reading this I hope you’ll appreciate having a CSR represent your company oh so well. Anyway while I can’t speak for everyone else in the comments here I can safely assure you that everything about this place and my experience is nothing short of amazing. Give these guys a try I think you’ll be quite pleased. I’m A. Feinberg and I approve this message.

The staff was extremely helpful and made the process from beginning to end - moving my stuff - into storage really easy. What was really helpful too, was the availability of a moving truck to rent for free so that I may move my "Crap" into the storage without having to spend money on renting a U-Haul van or truck. I would recommend this facility to anybody and everybody!

Finding and renting trusted self-storage facilities in Evanston, Illinois is now easier through MoversCorp. Compare options and rent storage near you with just a few clicks. We provide the convenience of reserving affordable storage units online or by phone. No credit card or long-term contract is required. Consider us as your solution for finding and reserving a storage facility throughout Illinois, including options for mini storage units and storage containers to suit a variety of needs.

The cheapest storage unit in your area may not always be the best choice. Please consider the following factors when selecting a storage unit in Evanston, Illinois.

  • Monthly rates are based on features such as 24/7 access, climate control, facility security, location, and overall demand in your area.

  • For household goods, the most common storage unit sizes are 5x5, 5x10, 10x10, and 10X15. For added flexibility, some companies also offer portable mini storage units for rent for temporary residential use that can be delivered to your property or hauled by you for on-site storage.

  • Many facilities offer larger unit sizes for commercial and business storage, like 10x20 or 10x30. These sizes are ideal for storing office equipment, inventory, or business records. These sizes can also accommodate vehicles, making them a great option for car storage.

  • Most storage facilities require insurance for stored items. If you don’t have your own policy, you may need to buy one through the facility, adding about $15 to $50 to your storage rental cost each month. Some places also charge a refundable deposit or an administrative fee when you move in. Always ask about these costs and refund conditions before signing a lease.

  • Storage facilities with flexible leases allow you to rent on a month-to-month basis. Be aware that storage unit price increases are common. Many customers say their rates go up after a few months, sometimes more than once a year. Since storage rentals are month-to-month, facilities can raise prices with proper notice. Ask about potential rate increases before committing to a unit.

  • The monthly rent will also depend on whether a facility offers climate-controlled units or only drive-up units. Climate-controlled units cost more than drive-up units or storage containers.

  • Most locations have digital keypad access, which provides you with your personal access code. Check with the office for availability.
  • Consider drive-up access for easier loading and unloading, especially for heavy or bulky items.

  • Some facilities may provide extra room or rental space for public use, such as areas for organizing or handling your stored items. Contact the property manager to confirm availability.

  • Check for online reviews and recommendations. Local experts can guide renters to facilities that stay available and maintain reliable service during peak demand.

  • Ask the office about the preventive security measures for safeguarding the location. Facilities with experienced staff often maintain stronger daily oversight by monitoring access logs and responding quickly to tenant concerns.


Are there free storage deals in Evanston, Illinois?

Many companies offer promotions for new customers, such as a free first month. Search by your zip code or distance to locate cheap storage units that come with the first month free and other decent storage discounts. Take advantage of specials if you're a first-time renter.


How do I find the cheapest storage in Evanston?

You can sort by price, from low to high, to find affordable options on our website. Away from the city center, you have a better chance of finding inexpensive storage rental solutions. The facility's size and amenities affect the monthly price.


What is the difference between an indoor and outdoor unit?

You have easy access to your unit when it is an outdoor unit. If the unit is indoors, you must first enter the building to get to it.


What is the difference between office hours and gate hours?

The property's operating hours are during office hours. The store manager will be on duty to help you with your questions. If you have questions or need help outside these hours, look up the property's phone number to contact the leasing office directly. The gate hours determine when you can enter the property and use your unit.
