Mike was the only person making sure the facility was running efficiently. So far my only positive…read morecustomer experience as well has been with Mike and one other young gentleman. If you can avoid having to deal with the other employees, you should be able to have a less stressful experience. They are very dismissive, untrained, and tend to give you attitude whenever you need help. I've recently have dealt with an infestation of moths in the unit as well. Upon entry of the building there were a variety of dead bugs in the hallways around certain unit doors. Like I've said, the place has gone downhill at an alarming rate since Mike has left. Never have I had an issue with this location until now.

Access & Security: 24/7 access is available with enrollment but the standard hours were more than…read moresufficient for us. All access is electronically controlled by PIN pads located throughout the building and each locker has a keyed padlock on it. Depending on your locker size you might get an individually monitored unit alarm, ours had it, smaller lockers might not. The entire building has tons of CCTV cameras located throughout and looks very secure against would be burglars. Cleanliness: Even the bathrooms are secured by PIN pad, if that doesn't tell you the place is kept extremely clean then I don't know what will. Everything is immaculate inside the building with the exception of some scuffs and scratches here and there from people recklessly careening through the halls with loading dollys. Price: I hear it already, I can hear the voices of people saying "that place is expensive" SHUT UP! You get what you pay for. If you want top tier storage with high security and climate control to guarantee that your sensitive vinyl record collection and high end computers stay safe during your move you're going to need a company like Safeguard. Bottom line: YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR! Don't skimp on protecting your stuff if you have high value items. If you're just storing a bunch of boxes of clothes and general housewares you probably don't need a fancy storage provider with climate controlled indoor storage and can go for an outdoor locker. All that said, for what we were storing, records and high value computing and storage arrays along with a plethora of other sensitive electronics it was well worth the extra money knowing our stuff was safely stored under climate controlled lock and key. Location: It's right off the highway which makes it easy to get to with a large truck and their loading dock can accommodate most any truck you can throw at it. Loading Dock: An enclosed loading dock is a nice plus especially when it's suddenly started raining and you want to unload your truck into storage. Unloading dollies are provided and all were in good working order when I was there. Bottom Line: If you are looking for top notch storage this is your place. If you are storing low value items that don't need climate control then you might be better served elsewhere.

Jaggy was also excellent throughout the entire process. His communication, timing, coordination, and follow-up were all first-class.

Eagle Storage emailed me a quote right away after I described what I needed; no phone call required. I arranged a pick-up the week after and the person showed up on time in a big truck, took my boxes and off they went to the storage. I didn't have to do anything.

Ten days later I decided to contact them to make the move. I told them all I had was the verbal quote and never received the email from Jeff. They said Jeff was the only one who could confirm the quote. That took several more days. When Jeff called he quoted a price about 1/3 of the original verbal price and I knew he had the wrong customer. He was certain he remembered but then later admitted that he had apparently lost the notes on my job. They asked to come out again to review it. A couple days later they sent another estimator, but from another company working on their behalf. That quote was over double the quote that Jeff gave me. (This estimator walked in with no mask on and attempted to shake me hand - COVID Time). On top of this, they only occasionally answer their phone during their published business hours. Maybe they would have done an okay job with the move, but they are very unprofessional, disorganized, and unresponsive. I asked for a call from the owner, but it's been days with no call. They apparently don't care . No problem, there are others in the area and I would recommend going elsewhere if you value your time.

I called around to several shredding services, and Midway Document Destruction was hands down the best option--by far the most service-oriented and the best price. We worked with Glenn, who was absolutely incredible. Not only was he helpful and professional on the phone, but we also happened to be there on Black Friday and received 50% off, which was a huge bonus. The weather was terrible, and we arrived close to closing time, but Glenn still came out, helped us bring all the documents inside, and stayed with us while everything was shredded on the spot. He made what could have been a stressful and exhausting situation so much easier. We were juggling a lot while closing out a storage unit we'd had for years, and his kindness and patience really stood out. Midway is fair, transparent, and significantly cheaper than many of the more "convenient" shredding options. They're located at 2700 W Chicago Ave, and despite the location sounding out of the way, it was actually very easy to get to. We had an excellent experience from start to finish and would absolutely recommend Midway Document Destruction to anyone who needs secure, affordable, and genuinely great service. Five stars without hesitation.
