I was not able to use this trailer for my trip at all and had to leave at home, wasting the money spent on it. It is a 6'x12' trailer with a ramp on it. I did not even think to click on the "dimensions" button as the dimensions were plain as day in the title. Well, I needed at least 5'5" clearance to load my side by side onto it. I had so many things on my mind when I picked it up that it did not even register to me that the gate opening was too small. I even tested the gate/ramp upon my initial inspection of the trailer to make sure that it functioned properly. My wife went to load it the next morning about 4am for an early departure, and found the problem. I tried to call uhaul and was told that there were not any 6"x12' open trailers without the ramp in the area. Then she told me to call the local number when they opened to have them check and I realized that I would need to go buy ramps to load the SxS. I just decided to search an app that people rent their own personal trailers on and found one to suit my needs. I guess my point is that it may be helpful for future customers if there was some sort of acknowledgment to click that they understand that the opening is not truly 6 feet wide. I had no issues with "Taskers Automotive" where I actually picked up and dropped off the trailer. They had the trailer ready to go, on time, and located in an easy place for me to hookup and go.

Maybe let users of the app know that filling in information online will save time once you arrive at the counter. Other than that, renting a van for the day was quick & easy. Great location for Vista residents.

The site is not a U-Haul store, so they just shuffle units in and out. These closed trailers are older and well worn, nor are they well maintained. I have never seen a new one. There doesn't appear to be any maintenance done on the equipment at that site. My primary factors for selecting this location is they had the requested trailer and the site is closest to my origination point (my house). Would only recommend this location if those two factors are the same for someone else. They were friendly enough, but didn't go out of their way to help me hook-up unless I asked, which I did, because these closed 6' x 12's are pretty heavy.

This location was significantly farther than my original drop off location. My drop off location was changed three times from the time I reserved. Due to the location of drop off being changed, I went six miles over my limit, which is unfortunate since it was beyond my control. I had to pay an additional $6. Other than that, the experience was fine.

Uhaul moved our original pick up location to a place 10 miles away with no compensation for the 20 miles round trip. The guy at the pick up location only helped hookup the large trailer when we asked for help because it was on a slight hill.

When I made my reservation by phone, I told the rep when I would be returning the trailer and she notified me the facility would be closed but I would still be able to drop.off the trailer using the Uhaul app. On pickup day, I met with Oscar. He got me processed for pickup. I also let him know I would be dropping off on Sunday and he did not notify me of any special instructions for drop off. On drop off day, I arrive to the site and both gates were chained. I had to fish my way through to the corporate number that handles this location. I told them the situation and they said I could just leave it outside the gate. I asked if she could email or text me a release of liability since I was there when I said I would be, to drop off, but now had to leave it outside (in a questionable neighborhood) at my own risk. She said she could not do this. Because I only had use of the vehicle I used to tow the trailer until that evening, I was placed in a major bind. I decided to leave the trailer at their front gate bc they have cameras facing that area. The drop off took over an hour while I sorted out the details and how to. I don't appreciate the lack of communication or the added stress of the drop off portion of the transaction and feel that it is fair and resonable to receive a promotional credit to compensate me for the risk I took on and stress it caused. Very unprofessional on Tasker Automotive's park and also on the UHaul rep that didn't have special drop-off instructions for their authorized rental site.

This van smelled so bad that we if we didn’t need to make a delivery right away, we would have left and found another vehicle for sure. We sprayed lysol inside but the smell still didn’t go away. It smelled like a dog had pooped all over it. It was filthy as well. When we brought it back, both employees were on the phone. I said excuse me, that van… one of the guys stopped me and saiid, “It stinks, right?” and the other guy just shook his head. I’m sorry. Isn’t it their responsibility? The van was awful. The service was awful. An all in all terrible experience.

Taskers was great. Uhaul screwed us on the truck reservation and caused the loss of an expensive antique. Will be emailing corporate.

I was waiting at the front desk for 10 minutes before anyone came to the front desk. The gentlemen there was not prepared and a little rude when I asked question. Required some sort of signature for a rental that I’ve never had to due before. Strongly believe it was him pressuring me to buy the insurance for the trailer.

Every thing went smoothly until check in, but it was handled. Transmission issues, heavy exhaust smell in the truck, it took 13 hours to do what is normally a 6-7 hour Drive. I did advise Oscar of the transmission problem on Monday 12/27/2023, he did advise he would call me as of today I have not been advised if I can get a discount on the charges.

Everything was fine but I can't stand these review requests for every single thing! Review your robocall experience, dentist visit, online purchase experience, parking, shopping, tv delivery, EVERYTHING! Again - location service was great but I don't want to receive these review requests. And you always ask the wrong questions so I'll give the wrong answers. Thanks

Oscar was at first rude. I walked in to his office, told him I was here to return the truck and needed a receipt. He then said he was busy doing something else and that he would return it once he was done and that I would get it in my email. Well I expected a paper receipt for my taxes.. I have never been told that they were to busy to help a customer out. I’ve been in customer service for 56 years and I know that customers come first no matter what the employee is doing. Because in the long run no matter what you’re doing when the customer walks into a business, you leave what you are doing to help that customer in what their needs are. Because that chore you were doing before that customer walked in will still be there when you get back to it. In the last two months, I have rented two trucks from U-Haul to move. And even rented a storage. I Have paid a lot to do so. And I feel like I will need to second guess about using U-Haul again. Maybe retraining might be a way to teach your employee better customer service.

Probably one if the best places i’ve ever been. The customer service from marc (I believe that was his name). He was awesome, personable, and very nice. I’ve dealt with probably 10 different Uhaul places ranging from CA to SC and his customer service alone is the best.

Didn’t understand why I was charged full amount upfront when I was told I would be charged the rest after trailer was brought back. Trailer had multiple dents and some cracks. The problem itself was not the place I rented from but uhaul it’s self. As a whole taskers automotive was very helpful and professional.

Again, had to be redirected from my drop off location I selected on line - about ten miles away. Again, no consideration for the fuel I used for the truck and the pick up vehicle. Drop off location was a mechanic shop. Personnel were friendly, but again a much different experience than a normal U-haul location that I'm used to.

I had my wife pick up the 5x8 trailer and after shorting out and blowing my fuses for the trailer plug they sent her home at night without any trailer lights working. This angered me as to the situation she could have been in if something went wrong. VERY unprofessional and dangerous! I replaced the fuses and we had to get loaded and on the road or else I would have taken it back and raised hell with them. I am VERY unhappy about this situation.

The staff was friendly and helpful. The only issues I had were with the U-Haul website on checkout. Since the U-Haul agent wasn't available to check me out, I had to do the checkout online. The website would not let me log in on my phone using Safari, as I kept getting errors in that it could not send me a code. I eventually used a different browser (Chrome) and got it to work. Then, at the end of checkout, it said that the receipt would be in my email, but it didn't show up until the next morning. I even had trouble logging in to the website on my laptop using both Chrome and Edge. I eventually logged in and was able to print my receipt.

The attendant wasn’t very informative or helpful. They had parked vehicles at the entrance that made it difficult to enter. The trailers were staged in an area that were opposite the entrance, so you were facing the wrong way after hooking it to your vehicle. I found the facility to look like a vehicle graveyard.
