Was told the gas amount was okay at drop off, only to be charged and additional amount. Opened a ticket with customer service, to have reviewed and never received further contact.

The online ordering was brutal. My pick up location was changed at least three times and the number of days the trailer was needed changed twice. Thankfully Aaron Thiele had his shit together and figured it out

When people are picking up after hours, do not lock them out of their account and make the whole process take an hour.

Your survey didn’t allow me to put NA against the personnel question. There was no one there. Your survey has been the only unhelpful thing I encountered in this rental experience

For corporate: The 24/7 pick up experience is not user friendly at all. The instructions do not match what is available on the website. The website also timed out on me at least 4 times while I was trying to proceed and I had to start over each time. I also asked other people that have used the same service and they had the same feedback. The mobile experience needs improvement. I would not use it again.

I checked in clean and full of gas and uhaul still charges some fake $ 16 fee for nothing will never use again. Worst company ever.

Theile were exceptional after the Princeton location failed to answer the phone as we were instructed to do- Princeton location wasn’t open as advertised and shouldn’t be allowed to be a location!

There was still snow from a big snowstorm that had happened a week ago on the windshield. There was still an advertisement sign in the front window.

The truck was filthy inside the cab, and in the box for cargo the tow dolly because of the storm was completely froze up, and we had to unthaw it to even get the straps to ratchet secure. It wasted two hours of my time, and almost made me late this is no fault of the shop where I picked up, I don’t think

No after hours number. Facility said open Mon-Fri on phone but did not state that they are closed on certain federal holidays (not all independently owned areas close on federal holidays). Confusing drop off location on site

Had us turning in the truck on a Sunday with little to no instructions ahead of time. Had no idea we needed to take a photo of our odometer, no-one was working at the garage that day, waited for over 15 minutes for someone to say go ahead and leave it there.

The provided pictures at pickup did not show the damage to the trailer, also the license plate light was out and needed to be replaced.

Location was hard to find and little space was given for the truck. The app was unstable and made checking in the truck frustrating as there was no in person staff available.

I used the my mobile device to receive access to the truck. Both the customer service rep and the online video made the pick up process seem like it was fast and easy. It took about 40 minutes to complete the process. Over all the experience was good - it just took much longer than we had expected.

We ended up at this location because the original UHaul place we worked with messed up our reservation. The original location was the St. Cloud, Mn location. They messed up the reservation and then has to find us a truck at the Sauk Rapids location. This worked out way better as the person we worked with was very friendly and very accommodating.

We never ended us getting our deposit back. It seemed like there was little to no communication between the uhauls that we wen through. They told us to watch the mail for our deposit to be returned and have yet to receive anything.... again super disappointed but at this point, with it being our first time using uhaul both in Duluth and sauk rapids, lets just say I wasn't surprised....

Drop off location was unstaffed at time of drop off Sunday evening, which was fine; only indication that it was a U haul location was one other U haul trailer on the lot. The location served our purpose fine for a simple drop off, but was nothing like our pickup location.
