I was given a truck and the dealer did not disclose that the truck’s AC was not working as well as it not driving properly either. Every plan on using the truck was sabotaged due to the 90 degree weather with the truck I had. I called and complained and the person, I’m assuming the owner or manager told me that U-Haul told them that the truck was good to rent. Not only did the air not work, the truck itself had issues with accelerating. I am disappointed to say the least. It was a waste of my time and money. I couldn’t go and do the pickups as planned due to the truck being unsafe to drive and air quality was less than poor.

it was extremely unclear that the reservation meant we had to pick up the truck at that exact time. i assumed that a confirmed truck meant that the reservation was reserved for that entire time. please clarify on your website, during reservations and during reminders that the pickup time is EXACT as it was not clear whatsoever.

Leave a 2 wheel dolly on each floor, near elevator. A customer moving something into or out of a storage locker may find it convenient & helpful. Thanks.🙂

The staff are very rude and unhelpful. I got to the lot and didn’t even know there was an inner office because there was no sign of it. I only found it because some other customers explained I have to walk completely around the block to access a run down office. I entered and the staff didn’t say anything until I interjected. The man talked to me and was very rude, playing on his phone the entire time and not very helpful. I had to drive most of the conversation. I love UHaul but I wish this location was audited or inspected and improved.

Everything was great, but i had came back 3 time and that was not a good feeling . there should be more access to your storage unit. i brought the truck back at 1pm someone was moving came back at 2pm still moving came back at 3pm still moving and the 4th time. everyone i had paid for them to move me could not come back. so it was just my grandson and i moving...... but everyone was friendly always had a Great experience with you all for years this was the only bad one i had.

I dropped off my return at 11 AM (an hour early as it was due at noon). The gentleman at the desk asked if I was picking up or dropping off. I told him dropping off. He took the key to the truck and went to his desk for ~3minutes, came back and told me I was all set. He didn't process my return until 5PM and tried to charge me for an extra day. I called support and David took care of me, but I feel like this is a gross error on the drop off locations part and completely unacceptable.

Overall, a poor experience. U-Haul has removed the people from its operations and you can tell. Most check in is done online, which is difficult on their website or works slightly better on their buggy app. I had issues that needed a resolution and I sat on hold for 40 minutes without reaching a representative. I finally got the app chat to work and the team member was able to sort me out. It was a lot of stress for what should have been a relatively easy single day truck rental. Overall, the “conscience” of online check in and check out is a stupid way of cutting corners and saving money. Employee more people. When possible I will avoid U-haul and suggest alternatives to friends.

When we were picking up the equipment, the person working there asked what we were moving and suggested getting a different dolly instead of the one I had originally booked as that would be more useful for the stuff we needed to transport. This was helpful.

The UHaul website is pretty awful. Slow to load, hard to upload photos, and they hadn't refreshed their database, leading me to falsely believe that a payment was due. However, all the customer care employees were pretty helpful in resolving everything.

Pretty ridiculous to charge double for 2 extra hours needed (8pm instead of 6pm). I understand the session chrge but didnt realize it meant a whole other charge for the SafeMove Insurance (60$ instead of 30$). Front right tire was at 51 PSI and had a check engine light upon entering. I could have went inside but it was 5 degrees so I did it myself. This was for a cargo van, all the other tires were around 75-80. Made me very nervous driving thinking Id get a flat. The lot is dark and icy. Made it super dangerous to take post drop off photos. Wont ever return.

Customer service is lacking; staff address you as though you're wasting their time with your business. That said, the equipment worked as it should and no concerns there--which is the main thing. If they had competition, perhaps it would be different.

The app was not very user friendly. The website the desk person used was also painfully slow. It took approximately 30 minutes to check in despite there only being one person in front of us (who had already been there 15 minutes). Staff was helpful and friendly but are definitely limited in what they can do with such archaic tech.

Customer service was sorely lacking - to start, signage was unclear or missing,especially in regards to parking and where the main entrance was located. More importantly, the staff were very unfriendly for no reason and made the whole exchange unpleasant. We were made to feel unimportant and like a major burden just for being there (at our scheduled pickup time no less) and were treated pretty rudely during the signing and license registration process. On the plus side, the equipment was available, brand new, and in excellent condition, absolutely no complaints there. Overall the poorest uhaul experience I've had, entirely due to the staff

The representatives on site were very nice and helpful with my rental. I like that I'm not rushed back prior to close and can safely return my rented vehicle to lot and return the key via the drop box. I move supplies and tools for my business and until I purchase a large truck or van, I will continue to use this location for its ease and convenience and excellent service. Thank you!
