    From the beginning, Cynara at Safeguard was friendly, informative, and patient while I asked…read morequestions about renting a storage unit here. I didn't visit other facilities, I only did research online, but from the exterior Safeguard looks a lot more clean and safe. On the inside, Safeguard is spotless and secure. The access hours are flexible enough, as I don't need access after 10:00 p.m. anyway, and I like the security features. You get one key fob to access the elevators (or building after hours), and then your key is separate to your storage unit. I wish the unit had been less expensive ($198/month for a 10x15), but the unit we rented had a promotion which included the first three months for half off. We expected to rent for approximately six months, so it really made the price comparable to $150/month. I was able to reserve the unit 7 days ahead of time. Cyanara worked with me to make sure I didn't miss the promotion and followed up with e-mails and phone calls - but she didn't overdo it. She was also very helpful when I arrived to rent the unit. I would strongly recommend this facility.

    1 Star -- Loyalty Apparently Comes With a Penalty…read more I am absolutely disgusted by the way Safeguard Self Storage treats long-term customers. I started renting my unit in September 2020 for $110 per month. Nearly six years later, after NEVER missing or being late on a payment, I received a letter casually informing me that my monthly charge is increasing to $657. Let that sink in. $657 a month for the SAME unit, on the SAME floor, with ZERO improvements, ZERO upgrades, and absolutely nothing different to justify this outrageous increase. Then comes the real slap in the face. This letter talks about how rent increases are only made "when absolutely necessary" and after "serious consideration" of customers facing economic hardship. Yet when I went online to price the EXACT SAME UNIT, I was quoted an introductory rate of $150 and a standard rate of only $319 after the promotion. So new customers pay $319... while loyal customers with perfect payment history are expected to pay $657? That's a $388 difference for literally the same space. This isn't "customer appreciation." It isn't "serious consideration." It feels like exploiting loyal renters because you assume moving out is too inconvenient. And the cherry on top? The letter warns about late fees and thanks me for my "continued patronage" -- as if I should feel grateful for being charged more than DOUBLE the advertised standard rate after years of on-time payments. Businesses love to talk about loyalty until it affects their profits. If you rent here, watch your rates closely. Apparently staying loyal just makes you a target for endless increases.

    IF you're looking for a storage place to store stuff. DO YOUR RESEARCH and know what you're going…read moreto get. I have been a customer at Safeguard Self Storage in Lyons, IL for around 7 years so I have seen it all. I've seen managers come and go. I've seen doors get hit and take a month to get repaired. I've seen doors just break and take months to get repaired. I've seen managers park their car in the drive in bay. I've also heard from an old manager that the employees at the locations have no control over temperatures in the facility as a company in Florida took it over. I've pretty much seen it all, but there is more to it. When covid, rents were frozen in residential places since working was hard for most people. At Safeguard they continued to increase rent throughout covid. My units alone saw 2 increases during it of at least 10%. This past year they renovated some areas of their building including the main office and changing out the fire extinguisher. When it came to installing the new fire extinguisher boxes there was no notification from them about cutting into customers units. In one go, I had two units cut into with boxes and paper on the other side of the metal. Sparks from the grinder could've started my stuff on fire. For a month after, I could not close one of my units properly. It took them multiple complaints to fix the issue. Shortly after this happened I got a letter of increase on two of my units. I spoke to the manager, at the time, about this and due to my units getting cut. Over the phone, she told me one of my units would see the increase and the other would not. This was back in June and we are now almost in October. Even after multiple inquiries about this they have not corrected the issue nor have they acknowledged this. One of the biggest issues I've had besides this was the temperatures. Their units are supposed to be climate controlled and is publicly stated on their website to be "Heated and air conditioned units." The temperatures this past summer have been the absolute worst they have ever been in 7 years. Even on days that it was 64 degrees out, in the morning, the units were 75 degrees with a humidity of 50%. This means that they have their units programmed to stay around 75 degree and it rarely goes below that, especially during the day. I have even spoke to the Regional Vice President about this. In one email (attached as photo), He claims that this has how it's always been throughout my stay at their facility, but in prior years the temperature next went above 70-72 degrees during the summer and in the winter never went below 58 (which in reality is super cold). In his email he also states "These spaces do not provide consistent internal temperature or humidity control." If they do not provide consistent temperatures then how come they are moreso consistently at 75 degrees with the off chance that it changes +/- 2 degrees? This is caused by the temperature being set at a certain temperature. With the temperatures being set to not really go below 75 degrees shows that they are not really climate controlled or even heated/cooled. I have even been told via a phone call with Kevin that their units are "heated/cooled" for the items being stored and not for the people coming into their facility whether it's a potentially new client or one thats been here for years. While also being told "Also, we have had no other customers that have complained about the temperature settings." How are customers supposed to know the exact temperature of the units since the company doesn't publicly display it on each floor? They won't unless they buy a device like I did. Being in there for 2 minutes would cause you to sweat instantly. They literally do not care about their customers or the items you have stored in your units. All they care about is increasing your rent and earning more money, even during the covid pandemic. Even their employees hate going up to units as they know how humid it is in there and they stay in the offices 99% of the time where it's actually air conditioned. They even agree that it's ridiculous how the temps are up there, but they aren't able to do anything about it. So they just sit there without saying anything and taking home checks.

    I'm getting ready to move 20 miles and I'm looking for a reliable moving company. This is…read moredefinitely not the one. Also, I buy a lot of from estate sales and would like to have a mover that I can trust. I called this company to movers a 6 piece bedroom set, Spoke with Bill, I was quoted 380.00. 2 Men, and suppies. Everything was going well, 3 men arrived and did a great job. The home owner told me if I wanted to take the mattress I could. They were throwing it away. The mover in the room with me said they could put it on the truck but they had no mattress bag. I was told they would put it on a blanket on the truck floor. When we were ready to go the driver said he needed to make a few stops. I agreed the delivery could be a hour or two later. An hour and half later I get a text due to the mattress and extra items the price would be an extra 100.00. There was a mattress no other items. If I was told at the pickup location the mattress would be 100.00 extra I would have left it. Be up front in pricing. You scammed me for extra 100.00 but you lost my move with a bigger price tag. If you are looking for a moving company, keep looking. Not a honest company.

    While the coordination of our move was smooth and the movers themselves did an excellent job…read moreprofessional, detailed, and deserving of the generous gratuity we provided our overall experience with this company has been extremely disappointing. After the move, we discovered we were overcharged by $1,385. Since September, we have reached out multiple times by phone and email to address the discrepancy. We reviewed the quote line by line and clearly demonstrated the overcharge, yet the company has refused to issue a refund or even acknowledge the error in a meaningful way. It's unfortunate, because the moving team on-site was outstanding. However, the owner and office staff have been unresponsive, unhelpful, and unwilling to resolve a clear billing mistake. Their lack of accountability has overshadowed what could have been a positive experience. I would strongly caution anyone considering this company while the movers are great, the management and billing practices leave a lot to be desired.

    DO NOT USE THESE CLOWNS. I used them to move a small condo…read more I'm telling you the SAME COMPANY, DIFFERENT LOCATION, ( Downers Grove) Moved me a year earlier. They finished in 3 hours. Perfection. Lagrange?? Different owners. Mike is the super " nice guy" who promises that everything will go well. Three guys who show up higher than kites show up and basically watch 4 of my good friends and my parents move. They grab small lamps and slowly walk to the truck while they finish their cigarettes. I'm running from one condo to a couple BLOCKS AWAY, trying to get everything in to a new condo. The movers are literally still at old one, just standing around watching EVERYONE ELSE LIFT ALL THE HEAVY THINGS. End of story? They start at 11 AM, finish at 6 pm. Broke a recliner, used my SINK AS AN ASHTRAY, and when I go back to inspect.. they have left two rooms completely untouched. Mike promised me he'd take care of this. But he is such a huge liar. Do not trust a word that comes out of his mouth. It's all for that sale. If he would have been fair, I'd say nothing. But he's a con artist and everyone who works for him is absolutely not qualified to do anything. They are really good at lighting up a joint! Just suck at moving. Keep your valuables and your home safe. Do not go with this company . Ugh. The thought of that move gives me PTSD.

The biggest issue I had was the guys who loaded our truck. They came over an hour late and then instead of wrapping our furniture, they just started tossing the stuff on to the truck unwrapped. The driver even had to tell them they needed to wrap it or he wasn't going to be able to leave. Then within 15 mins - they broke our credenza. We called the office right then and there and they tried to get the crew aligned a touch better. However there was no improvement. We got to our new home and all three TVs were busted dressed were scratched up couch ripped. Their response was - well we will look into it. I mean when the guys unloaded our stuff they took pictures so they wouldn't be blamed. So I guess the service was "fine" we just got a horrid crew in Atlanta to load our truck which is sad because they were the most important part.
