Our Story, The Best Facility & Prices For Our Community and Family

‍Our facility is family owned and operated.  Unlike many of our competitors, we deal directly with our valued customers and community members.  This gives us a huge advantage in customer service because we each have a personal investment in your experience.  We have over forty seven years of experience in the self storage and construction industry.  

We built one of the very first self storage facilities in 1974 and our first climate controlled facility in 1978. When we built United Self Storage in 2005, we set out to create the very best facility that the self storage industry has to offer. We chose a central location that has convenient access to Joliet, Crest Hill, Romeoville, Plainfield, Lockport, and Shorewood.

 If you live in one of these towns, we are located within only a few miles of you.  We're close enough to major roads to be convenient yet far enough away so that traffic isn't a problem for our customers. We used a unique super-insulated wall technology to create an extremely energy efficient building.

Our building is one of the most environmentally friendly structures in Illinois.  Our unique wall technology allowed us to make each and every one of our storage units fully climate controlled and dehumidified at no extra cost. Whenever wanted our valued customers to worry about condensation, dampness, mold, and mildew.

We designed the building for extremely easy access.  We built all our storage units on the first floor so that our customers would never have to climb stairs or wait for an elevator.  We made six loading zones that can accommodate any sized truck so that our customers would never have to wait. 

We used the very best security system money could buy.  Every storage unit is protected with 24/7 live video surveillance, entrance key pads, motion detectors,  automated call center, individual unit alarm sensors, and on site security personal on the premise.  

We also aim to provide the very best experience for our customers.  We keep our prices the lowest in the area to compete with the national chains.  In fact, we offer our premium first floor climate controlled storage units for less than their standard units!  Unlike our competitors, we charge our customers by the day instead of by the month, so they are not charged for days they are not with us.  

For these reasons, we believe in our motto:  Family Owned At The Best Facility. For Our Community At The Best Prices
