I generally had a good experience and often use this location, however, I would be nicer if the vans could be cleaned (in the drivers area) between customers). The steering wheel is really dirty and there were old used tissues on the floor. Also, the truck was out of washer fluid. Thanks!

I’ve never experienced such insanely poor and careless support. I found it offensive how little they cared to help. Will never use U-Haul again let alone this location.

- Stay open for the entire day on Sunday. - Your app does not work. - Your staff won’t help with the app. - One staff member was rude.

When I arrived to pick up my cargo van, there was no one in the office and no way to get the key, despite it being during their business hours and a sign lit up in the window saying ‘open’. I waited for about 45 mins for them to come back at which time it had eaten into about 30 mins of my rental duration. When they arrived there were no apologies or offer to comp the first 30 mins. Just poor approach to customer service!

The staff were super friendly and sweet. Our process was smooth as well. It’s just our Uhaul had a leak that the front which caused a lot of issues as it was pouring heavily. Our boxes and cabinets were soaking.

The truck was dropped at around 10:30 pm. There was no one on the location so dropped the keys in the drop box and took a video of it. In this review, you do not ask about the truck itself so I will tell you nonetheless. The right side rear view mirror did not work nor did the right windshield wiper. The cargo door was extremely difficult to both open and close. I just looked at what I was billed and I see that I was charged an extra $60 without any explanation. I expect this money to be reimbursed in the briefest delays as I fulfilled all the terms of the contract in terms of days (3), kilometers (416) and the truck was returned with a half gas tank just the way it was when I picked it up in Almonte. I have taken photos as proof and can forward them to you if required. Respectfully yours. Danielle Santos

First off i went to a different Uhaul in Toronto and was told I couldnt do one way trips ...then got told to call customer service the rep was nice but she sent me to this location and they seemed very disorganized and at first there was a electrical issue with the trailer they had to put a new cable on it ...the whole process to obtain a trailer in Toronto i thought would of been quick but it wasted over a hour outta my day just to get a trailer being sent on a wild goose chase thru busy Toronto traffic .

Downside of them location is having to wait outdoors. Staff are great. The. A was muddy inside and the windshield was dirty inside - affecting visibility when facing into the sun. But the van was comfortable and easy to drive.

The van was extremely dirty. The entire passenger area was covered in dirt and what looked like dry mud or construction materials. My hands felt dirty from touching the steering wheel and I had to lay blankets down in the back to move my furniture.

Nothing to do with the location but u- haul as a company is terrible. I booked somewhere else and was forced to pick up here. I will never recommend U-Haul to anyone

The truck was relatively clean, but there was barely any fuel in the truck when I picked it up. Luckily, I wasn't traveling far. The online pickup details took a long time to figure out. There were also two other customers picking up while I was there, and everyone had trouble getting the pickup details online.

I have been coming to this location for years! The Staff are so friendly, helpful, and go above and beyond to ensure a smooth handoff. Last time I was there, they even offered to send someone home to help me move furniture even though they were about to close. I can’t recommend them enough!!!

I am an older fellow. I was directed to a trailer hose tongue was buried in ice. I did not have the strength to free it or to lift the tongue. Assistance did come when I asked for it. But initially I was just sent out to the yard. As a 70 year old, I did not know what to do to free the tongue. Also, a surprise charge of $29 showed up on my receipt. I can’t recommend this location due to lack of support.

Staff at location during check-in was efficient and friendly. Cargo van was as described and ready on time. Easy after hours return. One recommendation: snow should have been cleared from roof of van before pick up (I hadn't considered this until later when it all came down in a large sheet, luckily not while driving but parking).
