VERY GOOD STORAGE AREA SECURE DRIVE THROUGH UNITS AVAIL.GOOD PRICES

If you need storage, look no further. If you want to work with honest business people who have great integrity, you have found the right place. This is my personal testimony to the 5-Star excellence I experienced from Peotone Storage. I want to thank the owners for making my moving experience better, easier and less-painful. From the beginning they were helpful, when I needed to put my entire household into storage after a 1400 mile trip. But wait, there is more. Next they loaned me their moving truck to move my appliances, and it was free. Finally, when I emptied the unit I made sure to sweep it up and left it locked for safety purposes. I put the key in their drop box with the number on it, and left a recording stating I had vacated the unit. To my surprise, I quickly received my security deposit and pro-rated refund of rent. AWESOME! You will not find a better company to work with. AWESOME! Bill Towler.

The prices seem cheap but Peotone is some distance outside of Chicago, I think it's not even the same county.nnA friend brought me along so I could see the size of the storage units and they are very large. About the size of a very long single car I estimate about 24 feet depth by about 10 feet wide, because the storage building has a high pitched roof the highest point of the unit is about 12-14 feet high as opposed to the door height of a typical garage door of maybe 6 1/2 feet tall.nnThat's the good part the bad part is the units are not protected from much other than rain and in the case of my friend a leaking roof proved no guarantee against rain damage, and as we were to find that after months of unresponsiveness to the rain complaints there was a bad mold problem due to the fact these units have no environmental control of any kind and being located far from a city more subject extreme of dew and frosting which leads build up of moldy conditions.nnSo if I were to store machinery or something in a sealed container thisight not be much of an issue but in my friend's case storing clthi g and furniture along with numerous household items like a microwave, TV, and kitchen items he found got ruined by mold.nnThe manager was willing to work with him on allowing him to move his remaining items to a unit that didn't have a leak. But was quick to state if anyone demanded any compensation for damages due to mold he would get his lawyer involved. Sounds like the nice ild grampa like manager really is just a cover for someone that call play hardball if you push too hard.nnNow in all fairness I never got the rental agreement I requested before I would consider renting. But two things kept me from going farther. One is the exposure of these units standing as buildings out in a rural area exposed the extremes of humidity, tornados, and lack of responsiveness by the management when a problem was clearly pointed out that led to damage and later minizing of the loss as something that just happens.nnI think I'll pay bitore and find storage closer to Chicago that doesn't suffer those humidity extremes once you leave built up areas like the city and suburbs.nnOn the other hand if I had some industrial machinery its not a bad deal.

I am very satisfied with the business, and have been renting from them for several years. Dorothy Dieffenderfer
