The truck we rented had a faulty driver side seatbelt. I had to strap it using the center seatbelt. It worked for my trip but I’m not sure it would have protected me from an accident. This vehicle needed a more thorough inspection and service before being rented.

Not easy to get to. Attendant not very helpful. Also, I reserved a 5 x 8 and was given a 6 x 12 which was tough on my car and me to tow!
KAREN MChoose 1 place to drop off in Utah near my final destination based on good reviews and the fact they were open to 5pm on my drop off day. Drove to that spot listed on my contract (that I choose from the list) only to find out they would not take it because U-Haul changed it on me. They were able to tell me the location but not why it would have been changed from my contract. Forced to use the U-Haul app since the new location was closed at 1pm. Also the app had no way to detail how to leave or secure the rented equipment with the truck. Left it in back and hoped for best. Poorly handled and executed by U-Haul from a customer service perspective.
CHRISTOPHER LGet the customer right!!!
GREGORY FI was charged for more fuel. I picked it up with 1/4 tank and was told to return it with 1/4 tank which I did. I want the extra gas charge of $33 taken off my receipt. Thanks Jeremy Pickett
JEREMY PThe guy running the place was very overwhelmed and kinda rude but I got the trailer so all is well
Paden LI reserved a 5'x8' trailer at a location closer to where we were staying and then the day before got notified that we could only pick up a 6'x12' trailer at a site further across town 8 hours earlier than our originally scheduled pickup time. When I got there to pick up the trailer the gentleman was nice but when I asked if there were any 5'x8' trailers he said no (even though there was one right on the lot visible). He hooked us up with a 6'x12' that had a shot spring/dampening system and felt awful to pull. When we took it back he then offered us the 5'x8' that we originally wanted and said he'd update the paperwork after we left and we'd get an email. I did not get an email with the update and had to call Uhaul to confirm the switch was appropriately made. I think the issues were more with Uhaul's system but what is the point of making a reservation if everything about the reservation is going to get changed last minute?
KENDRA DService was fast and friendly. Truck was clean and operated well. Convenient location. Thank you
RAYE MI have had good rental experiences in the past with U-Haul. This was not the case on this occasion. When we arrived at St George Outdoors at 9am when the store was scheduled to open, there were no employees at the location. After an almost 30 minute wait (with a few other customers) we called the U-Haul main line and rescheduled to pick up the truck at Sunset Rentals. When we arrived at Sunset, the system was down and the manager was unable to process our rental. After about an hour wait, the manager found a work-around to be able to get the truck rented to us. The manager at Sunset was good, but he did not have control over the system.
john mFix the trailer. Its emergency brakes need adjustment or repair.
brian dAll was goof
VAN CVery courteous staff and very attentive.
MARK FThere are too many bullshit fees included with this rental. I had put gas in the vehicle before dropping off and still got charged with a fuel charge. Renting from Home Depot would have been the cheaper choice. Uhaul is a joke and a scam, never before have I been taken advantage like this. Never again will I ever spend money with uhaul.
DOUGLAS SDrove 5 hours after making a reservation 5 days before... Only to find out they don't have the trailer reserved. The other 5 stores around didn't have one either. I had to take the axles out of an awd car and tow it on a dolly.
MATTHEW Smove to a Location that can stay open past 12: 00 noon
WILLIAM WService was fast, courteous and simple.
TIMOTHY JThe service person was just rude when i picked up. I felt like I was a bother and he really didn't want me there. The car hauler had a rusty frozen ratchet on the strap system that came loose after 25 miles. I lubricated and resolved myself with wd40.
Samuel TStaff at location were not friendly. Lied to me about equipment return times. Told me I could only return when they were there even though I could return whenever. Not impressed
DOUGLAS MIt got the job done, but I can’t recommend this crew/franchisee. I’d previously read that despite this location being the most sensible for our needs, there were numerous complaints about the staff adding additional fees like SafeMove to receipts and contracts without informing customers or getting their consent. When we arrived I figured I would stay quiet and see if this played out, and lo and behold a $15 SafeMove charge I explicitly opted out of during reservation is now charged to my card as well (which I’ll contest as I’m able). I would have liked to believe this was an honest oversight, but I doubt it. In the grand scheme of things, it’s not much money but the principle remains that any honest business owner should do better. To potential customers, I’d steer clear.
PATRICK SI will rent here again!
DARRYL HExterior of trailer look like it just came through a snowstorm., pickup location service was excellent, return location he wasn't very friendly, seem to be like an inconvenient for me being there.
PHILIP DTow dolly vibrated and shook violently
John CSuper cool and friendly. Got me in and out super fast Thanks so much
chase gPoor communication by the employees at this location. They displayed a general lack of interest in helping unhook trailer, backing up, etc. Poor yard setup. No room for maneuvering/backing up. We will not use this location in the future.
DALLIN RThe owner and employees were easy to work with. I would feel comfortable recommending them.
DAVID SThe man who assisted me when I dropped off the U-Haul was very kind and even took the time to call and let us know we left something in the truck.
Ester EThe guy who rented the equipment to me was a little on the rude side. Not friendly at all. I held my hand out to get my credit card and drivers license and he threw it on the counter right under my hand. Just very unfriendly while I was in a situation that was very stressful. Customer service lacks seriously at this location. He gave me zero instruction on how to use the car dolly just "go on YouTube and search it" then he didn't tell me which location I was to return my equipment nor did he tell me how long my rental was.
ELISE DI talked to home office and local people, all was very great. I used them again.
THOMAS DThe U-Haul Manager was extremely rude and condescending. Did not explain insurance policy or benefits. Cut me off when speaking and interrupted my conversation with another employee when I asked questions. I will never return to this location ever. Zero respect for customers.
RICHARD DThe manager or the guy that rented the trailer to me was a total jerk. Arrogant. No customer or people skills whatsoever. If I didn’t need the trailer, I would’ve left and went elsewhere
GLEN HThis was a terrible experience! I reserved the 10 foot truck for an in-town move on the U-Haul website with an email confirmation. When I arrived they said it was not available, even though I could clearly see it in the parking lot. When I pointed this out they said it wasn’t available for in town rental. They said the only van available was the larger more expensive option. Without my consent they then added insurance (again saying it was required). The whole thing cost twice what I had ordered and confirmed by email on the U-Haul website. I felt taken advantage of and would strongly discourage others from using this location.
LUKE LAwesome staff and had everything ready for me.
John KI was able to switch the truck that I had reserved after hours and at the last minute on the app. While that was convenient for me, I inadvertently took a truck that someone else had reserved. The app worked great but apparently needs some tweaking.
Monty PKevin was very friendly, helpful and easy to work with.
Paul BFriendly staff. Easy check out
JAMES W"cleaned" no the glass was dirty rear glass was dirty and for a brand new van it smelled like the garages personal junk yard parts truck
Brian MConvenient location for me.
Mike MThe gentleman who assisted us was super friendly and helpful and found exactly everything we needed. Good customer service is rare these days. He was above and beyond!
RICK RI have rented U-Haul trucks for a very long time and this has been the most Pleasant and easy experience I have had. The app actually worked I guess it has been improved and made a huge difference. Thank you so very much.
ALICIA RManager was rude. I sarcastically apologized to him for being such an inconvenience to him, and that I just wanted to rent a truck, he took that as a serious apology. The fuel level in the truck was not the same as on the paper he had me sign and he said it was probably parked on a hill when it was checked in and would not change the level on the paper. I asked why it is not full of fuel, he said "I do not work for U-Haul and I don't have a gas card to fill it up." ZERO customer service skills! He acted like he was doing U-Haul and me a great favor. The hood on the truck was not strapped down so when I got on the freeway, I got a surprise! The hood swung up and I had to pull over on the freeway to strap it down. Kind of concerning since the truck had less than 500 miles on it, wondering why it was not strapped down especially since this location is at an auto mechanic shop... Only positive was the truck was nice and new.
JASON RI had to clean the trailer before I could load.
John JGreat folks
ANTHONY FI got what I needed to done within an hour. I was only moving one large piece of furniture from a store to a house. I had anticipated this, and specifically opted OUT of the extra “safe move” coverage when I was setting up my reservation online. I received the bill for the rental and was unpleasantly surprised to see that the fifteen dollar “safe move” coverage had been added to my bill regardless, without my consent. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this company to others, as I would not feel comfortable using it again myself due to the surprise extra charge, for something I had tried to opt out of, at the end.
Adrianna LDrop off location is a joke-
ROBERT CVery attentive and helpful. A wonderful experience!
Douglas LI have placed a call into customer service and I am waiting for a call back - as promised this week.
CYNTHIA SThe service rep was extremely rude.
Blanca FThe only issue with the pick up location staff was he was very matter of fact and unwilling to listen. This may not have been completely his fault. The trailer was not at the location at the time it was scheduled, 10:00 am and wouldn't arrive until 4:00 pm. This was an inconvenience and plans had to be adjusted to make the timeline I was on. U-Haul at the level above this Dealer has limited concern for the customer and will most likely not give my review any regard.
Steven WEverything went quickly and easily for both pick up and return.
STEVEN DVery pleased with our rental from this location. We totally Rent from them again, and I would recommend them to anybody that is trying to rent a U-Haul customer service, friendly staff service.
NEIL WVery nice gentleman.
