Staff member was polite and the return went well
HAROLD PPulled on lot and was greeted by staff to check in equipment within a couple of minutes. Staff were very personable and friendly.
Timothy HStaff was great
JEFFREY SUnit was perfect for what we needed. It was super clean. Check in and rental was quick and easy. Easy and safe access that feels comfortable getting into and out of safely for a woman alone. Easily one of the best storage units we've ever rented.
BROOKE T | First ImpressionsThere very professional at there jobs love going there and doing business
ROBERT MThe employees that helped me hookup and drop off the trailer were both friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. They made sure I was setup for success and I will definitely go back for any rental needs in the future
JEREMY DWhen we did walk around, left side running lights were inop. The UHaul team were on the spot to check the trailer next and moving me to that trailer.
BART JNothing went very well
CHARLES MWould recommend them to anyone. Very good service very nice friendly staff.
RICHARD S | First ImpressionsI started with a quarter of tank of fuel. It would be nice to start with more gas. I almost made it to my first destination and the low fuel light was already on.
ROBERT SStaff was very prompt, friendly and accommodating. I was returning a box trailer & never had to leave my car or park the trailer. Clear & organized drop off area. Was in & out in less than 10 minutes. Quickest drop off ever! Two staff came out, one took care of the trailer & one took care of checking me out electronically & emailed me my receipt.! Definitely recommend!
TERESA HMore Parking
STEVEN RI requested a 20 ft truck and received a 26 ft truck.. when I finally got to my destination there was water that had come up through the wheel well due to rain.. my boxes, Christmas tree, and bed panels were wet. I took pictures of the incident.
KEELY SThe only thing I can think of is maybe add some better visible signage from the road as to where to return the trucks. I missed the driveway back to the canopy and had to do a few turnarounds.
JEFFREY ZAmazing!!! Thanks for the help as always!
NATHANIEL WVery grateful, helpful, and caring.
CYNTHIA C | Overall Experiencelady behind counter didn't seem to friendly after hours check in was difficult I had to call to firm.return
RODNEY BI booked a 15 foot truck online but then received a call later that only a 20 ft truck was available. More difficult to maneuver and more gas of course.
CHARLES SNothing.
CINDY WKeep doing what you are doing. Both associates were extremely nice and treat customers very professionally.
RICHARD DQuick in and out, clean truck.
ERIC EDoor on drivers side of the van we rented wouldn't shut correctly and the front seats were covered in pet hair. We are allergic to pets and had to return the van early. Very disappointed in our rental experience.
JAY WNo improvement needed
RICHARD GThank you!
marcella s | Overall ExperienceI have zero complaints. But if you would want to take it to a whole other level, you could have the vehicles started up and warmed up for people when the weather is cold out. Maybe while one is checking somebody in, another could go start the vehicle with the heater on. Just a thought, def not a star taken away. Just a suggestion. They were very fast and courteous.
Toni MPerfect
GARY NGear shift and transmission were bad and unsafe
GREGORY DSame-day pick-up and return without any hassles. Great service.
Janice DPut brooms in the trucks if you expect them to be swept out by customers before returning. This is such an obvious money grab policy.
DONALD THaley Church rocks, give her a raise.
ISAIAH HThis location in South Parkersburg has always done a great job.
MITCHELL KVery good
joanne h | Overall ExperienceClean site, nice and professional staff.
CHRISTOPHER BThe truck was not clean when I picked it up. Nor was the gas on full like the clerk told me it was.
SYLVIA SDalton was amazing and made the whole process easy. Great customer service!
Charley FNothing. Excellent experience.
Ken Heverything was professional
Monty MGreat experience. It was exactly what I needed at a great price, and the staff was friendly and helpful.
JARED DI had to wait to check the truck in because only one person was there. Of course it was Sunday. Also still having to pay when a good portion of my stuff was ruined by a leaking roof was annoying. We will see if I get any compensation with a claim. It was the second truck with the same kind of leak recently. Not really this location's fault but no where else to comment about it.
David UDiscount for multiple rentals
MICHAEL Cfast friendly staff no bs need a box van here ya go put gas in it cleaned it up because i got it that way simple and easy nice ill be back again!
STEVEN JThe lady was kind and helpful! The experience was the best!
kay mTruck was old
JOSHUA MTruck could have been cleaner - front window was pretty dirty and there was some trash in the truck. But, the overall experience was very positive.
DAVID RFriendly workers, all were kind and helpful. Definitely recommend this location!
PAMELA WThank you for making my planned transition easy…location, space, hours and even demo on accessing unit. All my questions were answered.
cindy k | First ImpressionsDrop off team was helpful and courteous
JOHN HWe rented the van Friday late afternoon almost evening on 11/15/24 when we returned the van the following Friday late afternoon, they charged us $89 for an extra day also we fueled the van back up to where it was at when picked up and they charged us $4.50 a gallon for 6 Gallons of fuel, we have done so much business with this location on rentals and hitch installations that I am very disappointed in the service we received this time. Although this is the first issue, I have had with this location I would be willing to give them another chance if they understand their error as the employee who done this shouldn't reflect on the owner but sadly it does. I am sure we will do more business with them in the future. I will also add the employee was frustrated because they had no vans to rent at the time and someone was needing one as the employee called me upset and not so polite and I told him ours shouldn't be due back until late afternoon he made the statement that he needed it now.
DOUGLAS PThank you for making what I needed suitable and felt my storage items were safe
Mary S | Overall ExperienceGreat service at this location on Saturday. I can always count on Uhaul having trucks ready when we need them. Thank you!
JAY WGentleman who assisted (can't remember his name) was very helpful and double checked the tires on the trailer before our departure (since every time I've ever rented one, the tire treads fail on the highway and roadside assistance has to be called). He was very thorough and friendly!
BROOKE BThey forgot the utility dolly, the truck leaked rain onto some of my belongings, also we had to pry the door to stay open so we could load belongings. Customer service was nice, they gave me a 20.00 discount, they were fast. Not too bad, maintenance the equipment better.
MATTHEW RGreat staff and location
Timothy SWhen we emptied our storage unit, we found multiple dead mice and large amounts of rodent feces and urine on the floor and in our belongings. Multiple items had to be thrown out and we are still in the process of unpacking boxes. The unit was definitely not anywhere near being full to capacity so it would not have been dificult for an exterminator or uhaul staff to enter and provide pest control. Very disappointed and sad about items that were destroyed by rodents. I’ve always been a UHaul customer for years but will look for other options in the future.
Amanda H | Overall ExperienceAvery went above and beyond thank you for making our first time using U-Haul an amazing one!!
Andrew R | First ImpressionsGreat service. They even stayed past the closing time to serve everyone waiting.
Stanislav K | First ImpressionsCompared to other storage unit in the area these are way over priced. Almost double the cost of others around.
Chastity H | Online Move InThank you
Rick F | Overall ExperienceI will use again!
Angela B | Overall ExperienceThank you helpful and friendly
Timothy H | Overall ExperienceONLY PROBLEM I HAD WAS I TRIED TO CALL THEIR LOCAL NUMBER ONE DAY A COULE OF WEEKS AGO AND NO ONE EVER ANSWERED. I CALLED AT LEAST THREE TIMES IN ONE DAY. QUESTION WAS ABOUT AVAILABLITY OF A DUMPSTER!!!
JERROLD W | Overall Experiencethe gentleman checking out was the absolute worst. taller man, beard and brown hair. complained about his divorce after we asked him why our truck that we reserved was given to someone else. get rid of that guy!
christopher s | Overall ExperienceVery nice and helpful staff
Misty W | First ImpressionsMy move from Florida to WVa was a challenge. The folks at Uhaul were a big help all the way thru. Thanks
Russell H | Overall ExperienceWe moved back to the area and needed somewhere to store our stuff while we looked for houses. The storage unit I originally reserved wasn’t big enough, but thankfully the guy who was working that day was nice enough to help us find a different storage unit that would work better for the amount of stuff I had. Everyone I’ve encountered at this facility has been friendly and helpful with anything I’ve needed when it comes to storage unit needs or truck reservations.
Danielle K | Overall ExperienceCourteous, experienced, professional and thorough
Deanna C | First ImpressionsOnly issue was that my address change made on my online account did not transfer for the local billing. Had to call the local office.
NICK R | Overall ExperienceIt took four two bedroom units to store my four bedroom house they will not store what they say they will
Daniel P | Online Move InThe only thing that made it difficult with this rental was they parked the huge trucks in front of my unit and it made it extremely difficult to access my unit with my vehicle to remove my processions
Selena M | Overall ExperienceOne of the nicest staff I have had the pleasure of working with.
Rick R | Overall ExperienceVery helpful, friendly service!!
REBECCA K | Overall ExperienceAwesome team & service
Charley J | Overall ExperienceAs always, excellent service and helpful staff! Always went above and beyond!
Andrew F | Overall ExperienceMy only complaint had to do with the parking of the rental trucks. They were constantly parked in the gated area blocking the isles. Additionally, customers would return trucks and leave them parked- side by side in the driving lane to exit the facility and we would have to sit and wait in our car for someone to come clear the driveway.
kathy e | Overall ExperienceThe staff was very helpful when I selected my storage unit and again when I had to get a refund. Thanks
Christie S | Overall ExperienceEVERY ONE WAS POLITE AND COURTEOUS, THE WHOLE PROCESS WENT SMOOTHLY.
JERROLD W | First ImpressionsI'm very pleased with my experience with U-Haul. The assistant manager was amazing!! I appreciate all of their help!!! I will definitely recommend U-Haul on south side to everyone who I know,to use them.
JENNIFER C | Overall ExperienceI’d recommend U-Haul storage to everyone, the staff treated me extremely well .
Tracey B | Overall ExperienceI went to order a 10 by 25 storage unit and every storage . 6 of them was all leaking. So I had to get a refund on my money of a 150 some dollers. Because my whole house is going into the storage building I could not rent the storage buildings because they all had water leakage
Wilma L | Overall ExperienceMr Ayers was slightly rude outside before I made my way into the building, comments about a customer's attitude should be kept to oneself especially if you're a member of management.
Brandon S | First ImpressionsGood
Deena R | First ImpressionsFor this area price comparison per unit cost is too high. Especially for supposedly climate control inside unit. Could see outside back wall, obvious rodent/vermin issues. I always use free month then move to more reasonably priced/competitively business Staff had to remove rubbish from unit. Staff was, for Parkersburg unit, fantastic per usual. This facilities' staff have always been exceptional every time I have used them over the years.
Charlotte J | First ImpressionsRoof in one of my rental units looks like it had leaked or will leak
JUSTINE A | First ImpressionsStaff went above and beyond to help. Exceeded all expectations.
Andrew F | First ImpressionsThe staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The facility was being updated so the gate wasn’t always locked/secure. But over the last month the gate has been closed and secure
Steve J | Overall ExperienceEveryone with whom I came in contact was pleasant and helpful. Unit was clean and available as indicated on the website.
teresa m | First ImpressionsEverything worked out well--no damage to any items--I was worried about the heat buildup but things seem OK. A new experience for me. Definitely preferable to storing it at my house until my daughter was ready to move.
Julie Z | Overall ExperienceThe only issue I had was that I was put in the wrong unit to begin with. But the staff helped me get into the correct size unit and when they mistakenly cut the lock off my unit it was immediately replaced and I was notified the same/next day.
Tara C | First ImpressionsCame already rented a truck and. Storage unit.. while coming back to put stuff in storage realized I'd need another unit.. the kid that was working acting very irritated that he had to help me. Then I was going to rent a pickup truck, and he was so rude that I said forget about it and left
ROBERT B | First ImpressionsOnly problem I saw is rat feces in the unit. And also how the prices kept going up. Other than those 2 things it wasn’t bad.
ELIZABETH L | Overall ExperiencePark lot was ice and snow and nothing was down about try to get it it was hard get to it was cover with snow and ice and they did not put down no salt out buy the unit and hard to walk on in and out of something need to be down about it
Brian C | Overall ExperienceNone
KEVIN M | Overall ExperienceThat was my worsted experience ever with uhaul.in 10yesrs
Judy S | Overall ExperienceThey have rats in their storage and expect you to still pay to hold your belongings which is trash.
Triston F | Overall ExperienceCustomer service was awful. The Sunday staff need to be taught how to interact with customers. No one ask if we had been helped. The guy at the counter said maybe 3 word during the entire transaction. Had to ask about the free lock that was advertised online. I was charged for all the mileage, when the add on line said first 30 miles where included in fees any miles after the first 30 were .69 per mile. What’s up with that, Uhaul?
Wendy C | First ImpressionsI called to secure 3 storage units days before our travel date of Saturday, November 6, 2021. Spoke on Monday, November 1,2021. to Jacqui to secure 3 units. She was pleasant; however, little knowledge of how to rent units with someone in the back ground giving her direction. Received an e mail confirmation for only one unit, called again spoke to Kyle with my concern of only on confirmation on 3 units. Kyle assured me that I was “all set” for our arrival on Nov 7th. Arrived Saturday, presented my reservation number and the worker saidthat we did not have a reservation. The attendant seemed very distracted, no concentration and “out to lunch”. The second attendant wasn’t much better. Very disconnected and not helpful. Inside restroom just nasty. Asked if they wanted to inspect our return truck and mileage. The response was “no we don’t worry about that”. Storage units poor, trouble closing and getting lock on door. Uhaul truck blocking access to unit 145 .. attendants no idea how to more the company owned truck. This is very disappointing, not a good impression of folks moving into the state. Not a good representation of Uhaul very sad and management should step up and make some major changes.
Beverly C | First ImpressionsThe guys were always nice if I needed help with anything. Never had any problem.
Sarah D | Overall ExperienceNever any room to move a vehicle through. Brush overgrown in backside and rubbed against vehicle. Storage units are in disrepair and locking mechanism are not in good working order.
Albert V | Overall ExperienceI am not sure the gentleman who helped me but he went above and beyond for me. I was so appreciative and was satisfied.
Adam P | First ImpressionsVery ⏩ friendly staff. The times I've used uhaul has always been a big help to me
Deborah p | First ImpressionsThe guys working there this Sunday we’re incredibly accommodating considering difficulties on my reservation
JON T | First ImpressionsOur unit leaked, and our possessions were covered in mold and mildew. Everything smelled and is basically a loss. Staff seemed uninterested in helping other than to tell us to make an insurance claim. Customer service was disappointing. Even if we are able to recoup and rebuy, there are things in the unit that are irreplaceable (pictures, baby book, etc.). Even a tiny bit of empathy would have gone a long way.
ABIGAIL H | Overall ExperienceEveryone in Parkersburg very nice and helpful
Anthony F | Overall ExperienceNathaniel was awesome...very helpful and knowledgeable! Helped get me in the best until for my furniture.
Anthony F | First ImpressionsHe made it easy for us to get in there and get unloaded, putting our 2 storage units as close together as possible made it nice. We really appreciate his professionalism and helpfulness. Facility is very clean and neat. Will recommend highly!
lynn l | First ImpressionsPrices are too high for a storage unit.. other than that great company
anthony w | Overall ExperienceI love south side uhaul, they are always friendly, very helpful and great customer service
Candy K | First ImpressionsThe staff at the Southside facility is superior. From the moment I walked in the door and asked how I should make my move and get back to Parkersburg they had all the answers I needed. The help at Southside was so important to my overall move. Thank you guys so much and I'm glad to be storing with you.
Connie D | First ImpressionsGreat people! Sad to go but will definitely use again!
becky h | Overall ExperienceOutstanding service, the employee was very professional and personal with my situation and help me in every way possible. This employee would be the main reason I would continue to use the uhaul service over any other.
Nathan F | First Impressionseasy in easy out
robert f | First ImpressionsExcellent staff.
LISA D | First ImpressionsGreat staff
Kody O | First ImpressionsSo incredibly easy to take care of something that is usually a logistical pain. Everything could be done from my phone, and it was really convenient that I could access my unit and return my truck event though it was past store hours. I called an employee a couple minutes past close to ask some questions and he picked up and stayed on the line with me for probably 20 minutes just trying to help me out. Great overall. Would absolutely recommend to friends.
