There's a gap between rental returns and store opening up, which is big inconvenience, store opens at 9 drop off at 8 , store closes too early for working people

Jennifer M.More help on a busy Saturday.
Lisa F.Need to set up a better gas system. I received the U Haul with barely a quarter tank. All U hauls should have a full Tank upon pick up. Besides that, the drop off and pick up were easy and simple.
noah P.I picked up truck before opening hours. Blankets were not in truck, however luckily there was someone there that got the blankets.
Lon W.Couldn't have been easier. Sorry, but I didn't catch the name of the man working, but he was great.
Helen F.Friendly and ready when promised
Phillip G.Mobile checking was difficult. Instructions need to be better for I Phones as privacy settings need to be changed to allow the rental. Luckily there was a worker there early who was able to give me more instruction which went beyond those given on your site.
Lon W.If you switch my reservation to a facility that is further away, cover the coat of the additional mileage I have to pay as a result, or don't let me make a reservation if the equipment I want isn't available at the location I chose.

GUY M.We have had a couple of bad experiences using Uhaul in Charlottesville. First on the Uhaul had old food in it and it took us 45 minutes to reserve the truck while after hours. This was after we rented a truck from one location and it wasn't available when the time came so we had to change locations farther from where we wanted to rent from. This last time it happened again with not having the truck available at the time of pickup. 15 minutes prior to us picking up the truck we were informed that the location didn't have the truck that we reserved and we would have to travel again to another facility and then rent a larger truck which we didn't want because of gas prices. They tried to make it better by giving us a $20 discount off of the total but that didn't help matters. It was a total of 20 miles different and not to mention the gas that it took. Gas prices are outrageous right now that $20 was not enough to cover the inconvenience and extra travel.
Heather T.They were helpful and efficient.
camille H.Due to the holiday, the hours were not accurate on line or the phone. Just posted on the door. I missed them by 30 minutes. However, the next day they were excellent. They were cleaning the trucks both inside and out for new customers. Something my pick up Location hadn't bothered to do.
Judith E.The internet check out is confusing and for me a waste of the me, had to wait for office to open anyway.
michael M.The service manager was informed and helpful. The premises were clean and far better than I've experienced at other U-Haul locations.
Margaret S.Very helpful at pickup and drop off.
Dwight B.The rental was very straightforward and very affordable.
charlotte R.U Haul at Putt Putt Place is great. Organized, efficient, friendly. I always use them for rentals. They are way above their local peers. THANKS
William B.The truck was clean and in good shape but the gear shift was difficult to get in the proper gear and the engine would abruptly drop speed when i was going downhill, just going 60 MPH.
MARY F.It should be more clear on the website when purchasing/reserving furniture covers that they are rental only. I was under the impression they were for purchase. Please include this on your site in a more visible manner.
Evan B.Great service. Helpful staff.
MUSTAFA M.Everything was great, from the initial phone inquiry, to making the reservation, to the quality of the vehicle, to the personal interaction with staff on site.
John B.Mark is awesome! Always a quick easy transaction. Best U-Haul dealer in Charlottesville hands down!
Thomas P.The staff was very friendly and helpful.
Edward W.This is a well run operation and on this rainy day where the manager (Matthew I think) was extremely busy fielding calls he handled my rental, other peoples les' queries, and other renters arriving with great expertise and knowledge. Also when I returned to pick up and move my car he came over to check on me in the pouring rain. Very attentive and customer service savvy.
Allan N.Just dropped off outside of hours. Was a simple process dropping off outside of hours.
Thomas F.They were understaffed while getting me set up. I would suggest staggering out the pick up times or encouraging people to use another type of pickup service.
Tyler H.My service was very courteous ,kind and prompt I would definitely recommend your service to anyone

Amy P.Fast and easy! Staff very helpful.
Michael B.The van's windshield was dirty, got on the highway and discovered no windshield wiper fluid to clean it. .
patrick M.Everyone was wonderful helping me in a really tough bind. I would not hesitate to rent from them again.
Michelle S.I got top flight, friendly , knowledgeable and efficient service. See no need for improvement. Very pleasant experience.
Margaret H.The return policy was not clearly explained to me, the sign on the door is not posted in a very noticeable place, and the instructions on the sign were unclear.
Kara F.Not a huge deal, but was charged an extra $12 for gas that was never there. Had photo documentation but apparently a 15 minute policy was there that I had no knowledge of. Weird way to make a buck
James M.Great customer service! Chris was a pleasure to work with! Friendly and courteous !
Kristen T.I did not receive a copy via email of final bill.
Sherry M.We consistently receive excellent customer service from this business. Thank you!
Robert A.Gas gauge would not register properly when fueling the truck. It would stick and as a result, I overfilled the truck for return. Not the problem of rental location, but it probably cost me $30 extra in fuel.
Thomas G.Best U-Haul rental dealer hands down!
Thomas P.Great service and friendly people. I would recommend this to anyone.

Lindsay B. | Overall ExperienceThe facility was unable to honor U-Haul's free one-month storage with drop-off. They stated the only facility that will honor that is 2hrs away but no facility within Charlottesville, VA will honor
