Easy drop after normal business hours. Extremely convenient!!
TIMOTHY GTruck Gvw assuming in lbs. because it didn’t specify I was denied a way shorter route. It added 3 hrs driving. And all that extra fuel.
Nicholas WNothing. Everything was perfect.
donald bStill not happy with UHaul as they had me dropping off my trailer in another province which would have had me travelling 8 hours return to return the trailer. I had to phone to convince them that that was crazy. Your system sucks.
KENNETH LSame as above, good job!
SAM TSo so simple and smooth. Always a pleasure working with this location.
Mackenzie MI was a bit worried about dropping off during off hours but there was no issue at all.
ADRIEN CNot really anything , everything was easy and went great , very painless process 🙂
Mark AJust was over phone for help though was honest about taking and recording drop offs. No person was ever seen but things went through so good experience over all.
Keith GI reserved a 5'x8' cargo trailer from U-Haul online months in advance. 24H before pickup, I got an email saying I'd be getting a 6'x12' cargo trailer at a different, much further than reservation. I know U-Haul disclaimer covers this but, it would be much better for them to contact the customer with options instead of making the decision for the customer. Anyhow, I contacted Black Metal Storage the day of pickup and had what I needed on short notice, they are great.
vINCENT CThe representative at this location was extremely helpful and friendly very pleased with my experience at this location
Gerald DRented a 6x12 trailer a couple weeks before. Was informed the day before that they could only offer a 5x8 unless I could drive to a location 3 hours away. Not happy that I was only given 11 hours notice that the size trailer I needed was not available
travis mRocky was a pleasure to deal with. 10/10
james eEverything was great thanks
Vern PRocky was great to deal with, thanks
Larry bI was very pleased with the process of renting the unit, pick-up and drop off. Very convenient and no issues.
Alex EThe full experience was excellent…the young lady at Black Metal kicked ass
LEE BThey had the truck ready for me when I arrived and the pick up was very quick to get me on the road.
James KMy wife dropped the trailer off Nobody was there to meet her She had to request help to unhook the trailer We got charged an extra $50 for dropping it at 11.45 instead of 9.20 Ridiculous
DANIEL HI already commented on this
JAMES CNo jacks on your trailers little heavy for one person to lift onto the hitch. Lifting device at your site might be nice
jay lThis is the best UHAUL dealer I've ever dealt with! Sometimes has some issues with uhauls computer system, but you can't fault them for that. Great place for storage too - very safe.
Adam SThe customer service provided by Dianne was outstanding. Chuck was extremely helpful and when delivering the pods and overall, a wonderful customer experience. Would highly recommend U Haul as the moving partner of choice. Great company to do business with.
Peter AVery helpful and friendly
Warren FLocation was great, staff were incredible and good with communication. U-Haul processing software left us in a bit of a lurch for ~15-20 minutes until our rental was able to be processed, which was annoying, but nothing Black Metal Storage could have done differently.
RYAN GStaff was friendly and made the process a smooth one! Definitely recommend!
KENTON BExcellent, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Equipment well maintained and ready to go.
John CVery easy to deal with. I will rent here again, without hesitation.
darren MI would like to commend the employee Rocky who on multiple occasions has been friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and assisted me to get on the road quickly with a smile on his face the entire time. An absolute pleasure to deal with!
Blake EI wanted to rent a uhaul from Cranbrook to Nelson. First day there were no rentals available, then I get one, but the one I reserved is not available, so I get an upgrade, which 8s great, I say I want to go to Nelson, they say there isn't a depot in Nelson and th closes they can get me is Trail. I am going to Kaslo.. so, with no choice a o take it. I drive to Kaslo and backnto Trail and the nice lady at Trail tells me they now have. Anew depot in Nelson. I was charged extra because of this.
Leon RKeep doing what you are doing
Rodney PAll went quick and easy
Richard GN/a
Randy CThanks, the service and equipment are much appreciated.
Marc WYour online registration was very slow
Chris HThe pick up was smooth and the personnel was very friendly and professional.
Vera Vsuperb service.
Thomas jThe U Haul Employees were very kind and helpful. However, it would have been extremely helpful for them to inform us that a UHaul Vehicle is considered a 'commercial' vehicle and as such is not permitted to drive through National Parks. We got denied entry at Jasper and had to turn around and take another route, which added 2 1/2 hours to an already 11 hour trip. Also, the policy that a rented vehicle cannot be guaranteed until 3 days prior to the move makes it difficult when you are purchasing an airline ticket to fit in with the move.
Mackenzie PGreat service here Friendly and helpful, overall great experience here.
Adam TI came a few minutes after closing and was close to tears as my previous mode of transport had been cancelled on me last minute. The person running this location was calm, so incredibly helpful and had me laughing by the time I left. I cannot express how much I needed a good human in this moment. He went far beyond his role and completely turned my day around. I typically don't leave reviews, but I want the world to know what an amazing human they have working here! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
Erin AFlexible & accommodating, equipment as promised. Clean yard & professional staff.
Mitieli RRocky was amazing both times we went in. When I booked the appointment to rent a cargo van for the food bank, I expressed I'd need 8+ drivers listed, and was explicitly told they needed to be present to be added. We had a bunch of us show up, and Rocky wasn't prepped about our arrival, the machines were of course not working properly, and he needed to call support and get our drivers added. Rocky was an absolute champ. He was kind, patient and understanding. He made a potentially frustrating experience light hearted. Give him a raise!!
Rainah CThe people at the Black Metal Storage were friendly and easy to talk to. Booking was easy and there was no wait upon arriving and the gentleman there helped to back me up and hook onto the trailer that I had rented. Top notch!
berlyn rI had reserved a car hauler for a location 8 miles from my home with 3 weeks leeway.Was told that hauler may not be available to my preferred location .I was in a bind as I had planned to leave on a certain date and taking car to Ariz.The bailer was located 3 hours away from my preferred location.So it was actually 6 hours of travel time on my dime ( gas included ) Trailer could've been delivered to my preferred location..I will be better prepared next time.. This was a rush alternative and had to accept....
Richard SAll good, quick and easy
Grant MNo actual person on site but the videos and step by step instructions are perfect.
Miles BThe staff were friendly, but I would suggest not advertising the U-Haul rentals as reservations as they are simply rentals dependent on availability. There are no concerns with the location, the issues lie with u-haul and the mixed messaging around what a reservation actually is
Alison HThe drop off location I wanted was not available as per previous booking so had to drive 2 hrs away to drop trailer. This was a un-man location which I did not prefer since no one was there to ensure the trailer was not damaged or that I had a question.
Lorne Pgreat customer service!
EDUARDO MThe overall service from uhaul was atrocious but the staff at this location were quite helpful
MADDISON LGreat customer service. 10/10 would book again with this location. Thanks Black Metal!
