I used the App for my drop off, because the drop off location was closed for the day, since I had a later drop off time of 5pm scheduled. The App worked great this time, no issues.

I wouldn't recommend U Haul in general to anyone. What they charge for mileage on local rentals is ridiculous. Used the truck for approximately 8hrs, put 66 miles on it and was charged $88 for mileage. Plus rental. Plus fuel. ONLY reason I rented one is because they called for storms all day Sat and we were moving my son. Won't do it again

Southwoods storage did a great job. The only thing I would recommend has nothing to do with Southwoods storage, but U-Haul in general. Your 6 X 12 trailer needs a tongue jack. The tongue is not light and is a challenge for one person to lift off the ground.

Our Uhaul truck’s A/C went out an hour into our drive. My husband had to drive 10 hours to Texas without A/C. We are very disappointed with the quality of the equipment and would like some kind of reimbursement.

We were quoted 40 cents a mile over the allowed mileage. But ended up being charged $1 per mile which more than doubled what we were expecting to pay. When I called the company the not so friendly person who got my call said that quote was an error. So too bad for me. I felt like they should have honored the quote. Or at least give us a discount.

Three warning messages kept appearing on the screen. One was related to the braking system, one to the traction control, and one to the stabilitrac. Seems this truck is in need of some maintenance.

The man in office was very helpful when my internet connection wasn't working to do everything online, he said they are located in a bad signal area, so luckily he was in the office at the time or otherwise I don't know what I would have done had he not been there.

Everything went very well. This is what we expected. The reservation process was efficient and easy to understand. The added verbal instructions for inputting Jim's driver's license were very helpful and easy to understand. Check-out and return of the vehicle was quick and easy.

The rental trailers need to have a device for assisting lifting the tongue of the trailer. They are too heavy to lift alone.

The UHaul app is not user-friendly. When attempting to reset my password for my account I would receive an error code. The app also would work better if you could upload saved photos from a cell phone vs. having to take a "live" photo.

I am totally upset. I'm a 72 yr old lady on disability. I was given a set price n cheated. You totally ripped me off so don't know how will survive rest of month. Guess you n gas station in hahoots too. You should be ashamed. Hidden charges. I said I did not want insurance n you charged a usage charge n a cleaning charge n it was clean. We said 200 miles n it was under but you lie n said 201. I HV possibly dying hubby to deal with n that's just a start so ty for lieing n making my life harder. GOD DONT LIKE UGLY!!!
