Customer feedback is extremely important to us. We use these reviews to guide our efforts and improve our service. Everything that follows is direct from our customers, without any filtering or editing on our part.
I chose to rent using U-Haul 24/7 online pickup. U-Haul indicated this store had a truck available. Arrived at 8:30 am to pick up the truck only to be told, after waiting on hold for 25 minutes with U-Haul Customer service line that there were no trucks available to be picked up via the 24/7 mobile pickup. I had to wait until the store opened at 9:00, and then was told that the store didn't make any trucks available for the 24/7 pickup. Fortunately I was just doing local moving.
Michael BurnsCommunication is horrible
tekeia davisGave us the uhaul on an empty tank knowing our move location was 40 min away but kept the original price for the truck. Also charged me for a dolly that wasn't in the truck when we got it
Ashley McdonaldKeep up the good work!!!
Angel BarnesThe trailer was in great shape, and was just what I needed to move what I had. The packing blankets were clean and in good condition. However, it was disappointing that 2 U-haul locations in Peoria didn't have any packing paper in stock. How can a company that specializes in moving equipment be out of packing paper?
Holly JohnsonI originally requested the rental at a different location (Farmington Rd location). When I arrived to pick up the trailer, they did not have it, and had to call someone to find out where I needed to go. I did not get any communication on the change of location. I wasted a lot of time running around before I could get the trailer I reserved. Communication of a location change should have been sent to me.
allison MedberyThe clerk who helped me really knew his stuff. I don’t remember his name but it’s a white guy, tattoos and he called me ”Boss.” Very helpful and friendly. Will definitely use this UHaul in the future. Give that guy a raise!
Joseph LatvaitisMake sure your calculations are correct.
Jessica PerrymanThe employee got a truck fast and was amazing . This site has always had the best employees .
katherine brownOur card shows it was charged twice. Unsure if that's error... Otherwise happy with service and will use again
Carrie KellyGot me in and out
geri rhombergThe staff was amazing and very helpful. The facility was clean and the process to rent was simple and fast. The truck looked clean but smelled like weed and cigarettes.
Cathy ShinnOn time .checked in and on my way in 7 minutes.
Steve GrigsbyGreat experience from every employee. Really went out of their way to help me with the truck and supplies!
Alan FergusonThe gal at the front desk was extremely rude, I honestly about walked out. She made me feel like I was bothering her, she was mumbling and not speaking clear and acted annoyed that I was even there. At one point she handed me a phone to take my picture and she had a death grip on it like I was gonna run away with it, I was trying to turn it and get the picture she wanted but she kept death gripping it sideways. Not a thank you nothing didn't even tell me where to go to get my rental I had to ask. Even though this facility is a few miles from my home I will not go back because no one should have to deal with this poor of service.
Jerad TroutFront desk staff were friendly and kind along with knowledgeable.
Christine Luebbers2 gentlemen promptly showed me where to park our Rental Trailer within moments upon driving into the parking lot, Greatly Satisfied with overall Uhaul renting experience and our 6' x 12' Cargo Trailer we rented was Very Reliable.
Kye HollimanGreat service. Very friendly and nice staff.
Michele HefnerCouldn’t help me with being double charged on account
Sonia ChinoTruck was great but washing would have been nice.
Calvin MacKayFriendly staff.
Stanley SintasHad to return truck before this place opened. Then was charged for mileage so I called them and when I asked about the charge the customer service person replied “I’m busy” and hung up on me.
Peter SouzaThe windshield had a large annoying streak along the wiper path on the outside.
CHRISTOPHER CHERWINKeep being friendly and courteous and pleasing customers thank you for your service.
sean whitelowI don't know
robert williamsFriendly and fast. Prices were very reasonable.
LINDA TRIBBETTYour business is great and the staff working was very nice and they were able to answer my questions and also kept me informed on what was going on with my vehicle while installing a hitch!
Judith jamesThey did a great job getting me in and out quickly and with great service.
Michael DavisThe location staff was helpful. The online processes were horrible. The app kept failing, and at the last minute they wanted 2 additional contacts or a passport, or a lease document. If that was going to be needed they should make that very clear when making the reservation as my contact wasn't available, my work office was closed for the weekend, I didn't have my passport with me. When I said to cancel the reservation they ended up approving. Nothing wrong with this location but the process to pickup a van took 30 minutes. I only used the van for about an hour. I spent almost as much time checking out and returning it as using it.
Samer AldroubiGreat service!
Robert GalvinTold the staff about the serious issues with the truck, and she couldn’t even pretend to care. Just looked at me dumbly and finally said, “Ok, whatever.”
Amanda HitchellNo complaints. Very easy process.
Kathryn CampbellTruck was clean and in good shape...Staff were efficient, fast and professional.

Charles Gomez | Overall ExperienceI was completely satisfied with the guy that helped me and the vehicle was in great condition.
James SodemanIt was a great check in and quick and easy process
Brenda JacksonEveryone is very helpful
ROBERT McgowanI wasn't told that the storage closes at 10 so my access was denied and now I have to pay 10$ more for 24 hour access that's fine I just wasn't aware of it so I had to wait a while for after hour person which made my return of my truck late
Bryanna Hill | First ImpressionsThe two guys that were working the night we picked the truck up were extremely friendly and helpful! Thanks again!
Nick MaherThese guys couldn't have been any better. Polite, courteous, and attentive. What more could a customer expect? That store sold me on their service a few years ago and have never disappointed.
BRAD HARNWe were given the wrong vehicle initially. After we started driving, we had to return it to the location to get the correct, working vehicle. The destination was also entered wrongly in our rental, so that had to be fixed also.
Stephen YeoEven though I had to go back to get the dollie that I rented & the check engine light came on, I did arrive earlier than I thought they did cut me some slack for being late rwhen it was time to return it & I greatly appreciate it in a time of need.
Stephanie DavisGood customer service and no problems
Deborah McNealTire Pressure sensor failure alert on cargo van. Dried mud (Hope it was mud) in front passenger seat. Everything else was great from customer service and I overall really enjoy the cargo van.
Kyle HosslerQuick purchase, check in, & check out. Nice ppl.
Shylow HumesLiars and very rude people. Not helpful at all. Will not rent from this location again.
Joshua OlsenOne of your workers there named Mike was very unprofessional. I went in side to get the info on the trailer I rented. They told me where it was and someone come out and help me. I went outside and backed my truck up to it and waited. Mike came outside and helped someone else that arrived after me. I asked if I can just load the trailer myself. He said “I’m the only Indian here I’ll be with you in a minute. I had no problem waiting but it is offensive to here him use the word Indian is if they were the gofers for other people. I find it very derogatory for him to use Indian that way.
Nicholas SchurterThe staff was fantastic, and so helpful! The front office was clean as were the restrooms. However, when we opened the unit, there was broken glass on the floor. Thankfully we had a broom and dustpan in the trailer, so it wasn’t tracked in with my belongings.
jennifer bakker | First ImpressionsI was very impressed with the quality of service that was provided!
leah grayer | First ImpressionsI needed a storage unit right away and the storage at university was perfect with the perfect people to handle my need , I will always go back thanks a bunch 🙏
JOSE ARAUJO | Overall ExperienceVery friendly and helpful staff
Andrew Becker | First ImpressionsThere was an older lady that checked me out when getting my last rental truck. She seemed annoyed, irritated and not friendly. Her tone of voice and facial expressions was unwelcoming.
Cassidy Gavin | Overall Experiencekept charging me for a unit i moved out of.
Julian Slaughter | Overall ExperienceI was very pleased and happy, the STAFf Very HELPFUL every time I was there.. Excellent Job!!!!! Thank You very much!!!!!! Rate them a 💯!!!!!

Virginia Eisele | First ImpressionsCrew was very professional thank you all.
manual stringer | Overall ExperienceJust keep up the good work and the staff was excellent and yes I would recommend This U-Haul to everyone and thank you so very much. PS this how I spell my name Singerton Tate.
singlton tate | First ImpressionsOur unit was half filled with someone else’s belongings
Daniel Freeman | Overall ExperienceI originally chose a smaller storage unit but decided to upgrade to a larger one. The staff took care of this quickly. However, once I entered the storage unit, I saw leftover items from the previous renter. I did call the office to let them know that I'd pulled out all the leftover items. When I returned later that day to begin storing my items, the previous tenant's items were still outside the storage unit. Otherwise, this was a quick and easy experience. Thank you.
Claudia Roberts | First ImpressionsJason was great to work with!
STEPHEN DAGGS | First ImpressionsThe prices raised every 6-months to a year. Got to be to much so moved our stuff. Clean secure place.
SUSAN SCHLEICH | Overall ExperienceFor some reason, this company kept on emailing me even though I contacted them stating that the email had on file was not the correct email for the person renting their unit. I have never been to Illinois, and they refused to update it to the actual person renting it. Completely unprofessional. I feel bad for the person who was actually renting the unit, who probably never got a single notification.
greg stewart | Overall ExperienceAll staff was very friendly and helpful. Unit was dry and clean. I highly recommend their facility
Debra Lancaster | Overall ExperienceAnthony and his staff were professional, friendly and a source of assistance whenever we came to access our unit or to reserve a vehicle. It was personal and a well organized office. We will continue to seek services there for any moving needs we have. We moved our storage unit because we changed residence. It’s much more convenient. We enjoyed our experience with the University U-Haul facility and look forward to using them again. Anthony and his team were true friends.
john heintzman | Overall ExperienceLove your service ❤️ Thank you 😊
doris linwood sommerville | Overall ExperienceVery professional and felt confident that my Mother possessions where safe.
MITCHELL BEERS | Overall ExperienceThank you, it was the perfect storage unit-I wound up not moving. Shawna was your #1 employee. TJ went above & beyond showing me where & how to use the keypad when the gate was suddenly closed one day. Some of the male employees need more training in customer service & to be taught to not be so lazy (only a few of them).
BROOKS BROWN | Overall ExperienceThe employee that not quite helped me was very unpleasant to deal with. Overall a very unpleasant initial experience dealing with that particular individual. Everyone else was great though so I was just unlucky I guess. My second visit was what should be expected however. Management was pleasant helpful and very professional so good job to that guy. The first guy really sucked though, he needs to work on it all or find something else to do.
criag mann | First ImpressionsNobody explained anything properly and some people just have stank attitudes
lashay pate | Overall ExperienceWhen you cal you are ALWAYS put on hold. Very frustrating. It is clean but like everything else rates increase frequently.
SUSAN SCHLEICH | First ImpressionsI had this unit for 3 months. From day one all the employees were friendly and very helpful. I would have like longer access hours but made do. I would recommend this facility to all my friends..
June Foster | Overall ExperienceCustomer service is everything!!! Velma was AWESOME!!! Will recommend!!
santana vargas | Overall ExperienceI lost the key to my unit and explained that I haven’t even used the storage unit. I asked them to just cut the lock and bill me for the month I had used it. The manager refused and started cussing at me. Telling me that he will continue to bill be until I find my key and get my stuff out. They now say I owe them $1500 in fees. WORST PLACE EVER!
jessica klein | Overall ExperienceVery professional! Look
BRENDA FRANKLIN | First ImpressionsVery bad experiences poor customer service skills do not communicate with you when you are communicating with them calling don't answer emails they actually do not find it OK when you close out and do not want storage they continue to harass and charge you for things that you do not want they are very very bad when you speak to them they speak down to you they do not communicate with you asked for a conversation they are very poor services I actually did not want the service anymore they have received a payment and was told to destroy Or remove items that was there They were no longer wanted to be thrown in the garbage and instead of doing so they decided to keep charging me so that they could still money from my account
lorrina perry | Overall ExperienceAnthony’s customer service was top notch! The facility where you could drive inside the building was amazing-I would highly recommend this service and facility.
Leslie Petruzzelli | First ImpressionsFacility needs more staff went there one day there was 1 person on their busiest day of the week how do we considerable amount of time just to ask a question. Later in the day when the rush was over they had multiple people there working. Whenever I called I had to wait on hold extensive amount of time.. Staff was nice and courteous.
Dan Mari | Overall ExperienceIt wasn't explained that I had to take pitchers of the unit and go on line and dhow I was out of my unit. I then received an email telling me I needed to pay my rent Which I emailed back that I gave been out of my unit and turned in my key since September 23 as I knew the rent was due on the 24th, and I knew I could get a unit where my other things are for $40 vs $114. My unit for the $40 is a 5x10. So there was no way I was paying $114 for that tiny unit. I then got treating email to be assessed late fees on top of rent. Earlier I apparently went over on my miles was told when I returned the truck that I was good to go. Then I see where you took $40 extra besided the $31 I owed out of my checking account without notice, as I checked my emails at the time I seen you took the money out and there was none. I called and the manager said the would have it turned which it was about 10 business days later and after my automatic payments bounced due to the extra $40 that caused bounced check fees of $20 2x's and bounce check fees on my automatic payments. So taking this extra $40 ending up costing me an extra $80. So no I will only use you if I have to and nor recommend you to anyone.
KATHERINE JORDAN | Overall ExperienceVery friendly, helpful, and knowledgable. Highly recommend.
lori copka | Overall ExperienceThe general manager was super rude and non caring for his customers
AMBER BROWN | Overall ExperienceVery professional staff!
Antoinette King | First ImpressionsI called the day before and the man said he would reserve a van for me and call me back. He never called me back nor make the reservation for the van. Luckly they had one the next day. I also feel as if your storage is really high after the free 30 days I already rent a full storage unit over twice as big for $40 a month however they had no units available at this time hoping they do at the end of the 30 days or my divorce is final
KATHERINE JORDAN | First ImpressionsThe general manager razi is racist called me weird because he didn’t explain himself correctly so when I corrected him he got upset and spoke on Americans as if he’s not in our country smh the things we have to endure for service

kathryn dyes | Overall ExperienceGood Job Guys
timothy lowe | First ImpressionsThe reason why I said average cause the manager were very very rude, don't know how to communicate, very smart mouth, every body that's go get a uhaul or storage from there, he slow and very rude, the line be very long cause he very very slow, next time I will be taking my business else where, he still charge me for the unit, but I moved my stuff out feb 4, 2020, didn't take the lock off and I came in to talk to him about it, he was rude to me in front of customers and I was embarrassed about the situation cause their were other people around, thank you
dorothy lee | Overall ExperienceThe only thing I was very upset with was when my girlfriend and I called the call center, we were told one thing and the prices were cheaper than what was posted when we went to purchase the storage unit. We were told there was a 7x5 storage locker and it was air controlled. We were quoted 75.00. When I got there the other uhaul facility was a mile away and with the coronavirus I did not want to be going everywhere. I purchased a 12x5 unit. For 109.00 a month. This part I was very upset because we were given different info. The employees at the uhaul were very professional and nice. I would like a response as I am very angry about the inconsistent pricing and info. Your call center gives out verses the actual information that is given out.
buffy finn | First ImpressionsStorage closes too early and I got locked n the gate, due to a malfunction.
