Gilman Street Rentals is the best. This time, it was Travis who helped me get checked into a van and on the road. Thanks, Travis, I appreciate the high level of service you consistently provide.

I got charged for the liability even though I said twice that I didn’t want it. It’s on my online receipt. And I called the location and they won’t answer. My number is +19513178556 and email is calderonjonathan223@gmail.com

In my 18 years living in the Bay Area using U-Haul for my family moves, this is consistently hands down my favorite / most professional & pleasant Uhaul location that I’ve experienced ever. Courteous and reliable. Thanks

I've now used the 6th Street location three times for my current move and it's been easy both going and coming. Travis is a delight, professional, helpful, personable and kind. He always made sure that he gave me a van that had sufficient fuel to take care of my needs. The only thing that made me at all possibly concerned was that the washer fluid detector generally says they are low. It's hardly a make-or-break item but just in case I were to have driven through a mud storm...! This is definitely a very good location, all around.

This location could use some sort of signage to indicate what to do with the equipment, especially since it's staffed so few hours of the day. Especially when the UHaul app is so buggy and you can't go through the app's return experience (it quite literally never loads the camera to take the photos required) it would be helpful to have some kind of assurance/acknowledgement of receipt when returning keys even without the app.

One has to love Gilman Street Rentals, by far the best provider of U-Haul services in the East Bay. This time it was Travis who helped me with my reservation. I was in and other there in no time...helping me stay on schedule on a busy day. Thanks, Travis

I can't say whose at fault, but the truck I rented had a weak battery. I parked it and put on the flashers. Took about an hour to unload the truck. And came back and put in the key and the battery was completely dead necessitating a tow truck and costing me time.

The man who helped me was incredibly helpful and nice. The issue with U-Haul is the poorly managed notification of informing customers that their desired pick up location is not possible.

I added a dolly rental, expecting the dolly to be in the vehicle when it was given to me. The front desk person also walked me to the truck after confirming I had a dolly rental on the order, without picking up or guiding me to get a dolly on my way out.

I had an item that got wet inside the 15 ft truck. If that’s a possible issue with some of the rented and older trucks, it would be very important to let renters know. An alert came in while driving my truck due to high winds on the freeway. The roadside assistance number was responsive in a short period of time.

Make the key drop sign more visible— the websites reference pic looks nothing like the door slit. Maybe use orange paint or put a sign next to the key pickup boxes saying “key drop on front door”

This week, I needed a van for an unanticipated quick trip. Despite the last minute notice, Travis had a van ready waiting for me. When it comes to providing top-notch service, Gilman Street Rentals is the best in the area by far. Thanks, Travis.
