michael dIt is the only Uhaul around that has the trailer I need.
MICHAEL DThe manager and staff were very helpful and patient with the situation with Jonathan N. I appreciated everything they had done

BRIAN LCraig was very helpful. The truck was available as he said it would be. His place was clean and organized. I will definitely call him again.

Ken L | Overall ExperienceGood facility. Rates are getting high. Craig is an excellent manager . Very accommodating. Recognizes my business.
TROY P | Overall ExperienceAa
David RWent smoothly
CRAIG BProfessional and helpful staff. No fuss.
JAKE D | Overall ExperienceBoth the initial rental and vehicle return were easy and quick.
DAVID RThe brakes on the truck went to the floor and truck barely made it over 55 I felt very unsafe yes it was clean and location was perfect but truck was not good felt unsafe won’t use U-Haul again
BARRETT AThe hydraulic brake feature on the trailer was missing a backup cutout switch. This means when I tried to back the loaded trailer up a small incline the wheels locked and the trailer would not budge. This is a safety issue and needs to be addressed
MICHAEL DThey are very good people down to earth very thankful for their services would definitely use them again if needed.
LORRIE MCraig the manager was extremely helping with me obtaining a short term unit while I was relocating from Kentucky. He even gave me a contact person for a uhaul position.
JOYMARIE H | Overall ExperienceAsked prior to rental if height would be sufficient to transport a 70” fridge. Was reassured that would be fine. There is not enough clearance to transport a standard apartment fridge and had to lay the fridge down.
Kurtis AExperienced tire blow out. Called for assistance. The first two contact numbers were not correct. The third number was able to assist and was assisted by a towing company that replaced the tire within one hour.
MICHAEL RBooking this was not a pleasant experience as the initial booking was for the wrong drop off date and it also shifted locations. When I got the confirmation and called because of the wrong day the person at the location would not fix the drop off date as they said it was unavailable. they gave me a different number and this person was able to change the drop off date correctly at the location I called where they said it was unavailable. Reserving a trailer really needs to be cleaned up and more attention to details on the initial reservation.
GREGORY BVery nice folks here, i felt bad the guy went out in the rain to help me get going.
JOHN PAlways a great experience at your Swansea location
JAMES RExcellent in every way!
PETER DMy second week of renting..very satisfied there is always a truck available cos I needed it on the spot...service gentleman was very curtious in serving services...
LYNN MWas soon glad there was a van available on Wednesday...needed to pic up furniture that day...the boss was excellent in his service..will be going back soon...thank you...
lynn mEveryone was great.excellent job.
CHRISTOPHER PGentleman at the location was very friendly and helpful, explained options and details.
JONATHAN AAll of their staff members were very friendly, and the cargo van was in great shape and clean in interior and exterior. Once I return the vehicle, the charges were accurately sent in a receipt in the application was updated accordingly. Very positive experience at this location.
STEPHEN OStaff was diligent in making my experience painless. Very helpful in making sure I was satisfied with last minute adjustments in my reservation. I will definitely use this location again!
WILLIAM JI will be recommending Home Depot truck rentals to everyone that I know and warn them about U-Haul I went a few exists on the highway noticed I used almost a full tank brought the truck right back with the same amount of gas originally and still got charged $50 to do so .
COLLEEN CAgain, excellent service. Seamless. U-Haul representative was very friendly, polite and efficient.
JAMES CGreat gas mileage rental went well
CRAIG BThe staff are very helpful, knowledgeable and kind.
JASON AVery smooth pickup and drop off. Trailer was new and perfect.
MICHAEL DI still have another unit upstairs.
audrey p | Overall ExperienceI ordered and reserved truck in Taunton and uhaul sent me to Swansea to pick it up. Uhaul should have made sure the truck was at its original reservation point instead of making customer drive to go get it…and uhaul notified me the day before my pick up date The guy in Swansea should be fired. A miserable man offering miserable customer service. Period
Robyn WI wouldn't say there's anything to improve, I just wanted to note that the gentleman that assisted me was amazing , very informative and very helpful!
MARK FI was cought in traffic and Jason was understanding and stood to acomade my needs great place!!
ian mYou screwed me over and over charged. Incompetence at its finest
RUBEN BVery good
Michael W | Overall ExperienceMy reservation was initially for another location. Church St New Bedford. This is the second time I’ve reserved a trailer and has not been available upon pickup. Frustrating that the items I reserved are not present when I reserve them. Inconvenient.
NELSON TMore staff in the office would assist in the rental process. There was a waiting line.
Thomas GI am VERY dissatisfied with the process of the return in Swansea, MA. We arrived 10 minutes before the required drop off time. Needed to wait as there was only 1 staff. He then went to help other customers and said he’d email a receipt. He emailed the receipt with a drop off time over half an hour after we arrived for the return. Because of this I am being charged a full extra day AND insurance. I’ve tried contesting the charges and need to wait up to 72 hours for a response. I’m extremely dissatisfied with the drop off process and that the costs were already taken from my card without explanation. This is unacceptable. If the drop off location doesn’t have enough staff to attend to customers the customer should not be charged because they had to wait, AND until the staff had a moment to go into a computer to log the return after assisting other customers. Nor should this occur without explanation to the customer and a signature. I’m also quite upset that I have to wait 72 hours for resolution. I called within an hour and a half of the return. It’s frustrating to have an experience like this at drop off especially since the rest of the experience was positive
DAWN WGreat staff and service
Jon R.
John C | Online Move InIt was a pleasant experience. The app was easy to use. The service at the location was excellent
Laurie TPleasant staff and always helpful,
damian mAll went well, great customer service. Thank you!
Bellande BIn and out. Great service!!!
Ray PI just want to take the time to say that Craig, and his staff and facilities were amazing!!! In an very difficult time for my family. I have already mentioned it to several people how great of an experience I had . Thank you so much, Brian Joseph James McMahon 427 Mount Fair Circle Swansea,Ma 02777 (774) 714-0972
brian m | Overall ExperienceEverything went absolutely flawless from phone call reservation to same day pick up. Just AWESOME!!!!
Joey MThis place was great. First time at a U-Haul and the paperwork was quick, all my questions were answered immediately, and I picked up and went less than 10 minutes after getting there. Return was just as easy. Guy was already outside, asked me some quick easy questions, and I was in my own car within 2 minutes, knowing the receipt would be emailed to me.
Cameron BNice customer service and friendly throughout the whole process.
JOHN GEveryone is very helpful, profesional and knowledgeable especially Craig and Brian. I highly recommend this uhaul storage in Swansea, MA. I've use this storage here and rent trucks many times. Everytime with a wonderful experience. Thats why I continúe to comeback due to the amazing staff and cleaniness too. Thank you ALL your "GREAT" work, it doesn't get unnoticed.
Nancy P | First ImpressionsGreat experience. Very helpful, spoke through experience.
Christopher m | First ImpressionsHave always used a UHaul facility and have not been disappointed.
paul o | Overall Experienceawesome staff
roland m | First ImpressionsI want to single out Craig Bird for his outstanding customer service and going above and beyond. He’s a great guy!!
maryann m | First ImpressionsThere is a water leak in unit #98. I didn't realize this until too late. I came after a storm and found a table I had in there wet and the floor was wet. Some papers and books were warped. Also, I always get an email telling me to correct my address. Even tho I've gone to the facility 3 times to have it changed and even called customer service. No one cared enough to actually change it. (That's just frustrating more than anything. The water is the main problem.)
Tomas g | Overall ExperienceI rent to the five by eight I needed a larger unit. They would not refund me anything, as I already paid for both units. Stated because I didn't online I'm not eligible for a refund. Not even a portion. This is terrible service. I have been there may be a week.
melanie v | Online Move InI rented a smaller storage unit. I realized it was too small after maybe a week. I now have a lot of unit but cannot get A. Refund for my smaller unit. I don't think this is fair. I will not be going back to you. How once I get my stuff out.
melanie v | Overall ExperienceStorage was just as good as I expected, clean and never got wet during the storms.
Anthony A | Overall ExperienceIt was a pleasure doing business with them.
vanessa c | First ImpressionsI really appreciate the amazing customer service!
toddye A | First ImpressionsI have to say staff at this uhaul are very nice and personable. It's clean well kept and maintained staff are always eager to help with any questions or issues that may arise.
Jermaine M | Overall ExperienceThank you for providing a fine storage solution during my remodel . v/r MW Rutkowski
michael r | Overall ExperienceExcellent service onsite. Jason was very helpful, quick and friendly when we moved in. The only difficulty I had was with their call center. Very very long waits and it seems not possible to actually reach someone at the storage location office.
Ann S | Overall ExperienceSimple, easy and no hassle. Perfect job!
David W | Overall ExperienceI have another uhaul storage unit in another location and combined everything all in one unit ...I do recommend your storage facility to people and I do appreciate the cleanliness and secure access to my belongings thank you Uhaul at 600 grand army hwy Swansea ma
graciana s | Overall ExperienceEvery six months you raise the prices!! When I went to cancel the rental there was no worker on the property. Door was open, no one was there. When he finally showed up he was rude. The prior employees/manager were wonderful
MARIA H | Overall ExperienceGate always broke , water came and ruined some of my stuff
Mike F | Overall ExperienceWe opted out of our agreement five months early and we asked them to clean out the items that was left in the storage they did that without charge they’re very helpful and give us a refund on the rest of our year would recommend them to everyone they were very nice and very helpful
Arthur A | Overall ExperienceUnit was smaller than anticipated and not easily accessible
julie r | Online Move InThe staff and owner have excellent customer service, very accommodating and the location was very convenient right off of 195. Thank you, Bill
William S | Overall ExperienceStaff was very friendly
marcelina w | First ImpressionsWould be excellent , had to take some points away for the mold issues, other than that , your staff and set up is the best around
brandon r | Overall ExperienceJason was very helpful and friendly.
Ann S | First ImpressionsFacility was clean and easy accessible. Only issue is locks on overhead doors are hard to open or close with arthritic hands.
Joseph B | Overall ExperienceThe condition of both units I rent is terrible, especially for the price. For the most recent unit there is a large gap in the siding that exposes the unit to the elements. The door is bent and difficult to operate and lock. The other unit I rent is also falling apart and it smells like rodent.
Karen B | Online Move InEasy fast and convenient
Adam M | Online Move InThey were able to accommodate the needs of my storage for auto. Very quick sign up and payment process.
Lee S | First ImpressionsVery decent accommodations. Pleasure doing business.
andrew b | Overall ExperienceTo slow. One employee several customers
AUNDRA G | First ImpressionsI spent $72 in buckets of DryAir over the 5 months. It's an outdoor facility, so "clean" is relevant to the circumstances. Also depends on how long you plan to stay. Mine went longer than expected. For $20 more, moved to a climate controlled facility for the long term.
janis q | Overall ExperienceThe team was amazing and friendly. The general manager Craig Bird was fabulous and very helpful. Great all around.
Ron S | Overall ExperienceDetailed and efficient transaction. Thanks!
Malcolm M | First ImpressionsGreat service, very honest warning about storage during the summer months.
David C | First ImpressionsStaff were very helpful and pleasant.
JOSEPH C | Overall ExperienceVery friendly and professional personnel
Joseph C | Overall ExperienceThe unit I chose with the 1 (800) was too small and I had no idea it was only 2 floors which meant we’d be moving thing by climbing a flight of stairs. Every storage unit I’ve used always had more than just 2 floors so not knowing til I showed up was kind of disappointing but the men were very sweet and understanding and very accommodating. Thank you
NOELLE C | Overall ExperienceThis was like luxury compare to the one in Fall River I’m still waiting for a call back can’t wait to get my stuff out of the other one .Swansea is so convienient and they were so organized thank you after the day I had it sure made me have some relief of some of my stresses
Lori A | First ImpressionsSecure unit, friendly and helpful staff, great location, couldn't ask for a better storage facility!
dennis l | Overall ExperienceVery good
Maria V | First ImpressionsJAY CARREIRO was the only worker in the office when I stopped in. He was very busy with people and phone calls but handled everyone in a professional manner and everyone seemed happy with his service. Jay was polite and knowledgeable and I believe he is an asset to the company.
denise m | First ImpressionsThis facility was clean organized and very useful staff friendly and polite and the unit affordable compared to others in the area would utilize again
Kimberly O | Overall ExperienceTop notch customer service. Safe and clean facility. I had my motorcycle stored there for 5 years and never had one problem. The entire complex is well lit and multiple security cameras. Thank you for the professional service over the years!!!
JASON A | Overall ExperienceI had a bad experience with being rented a UBox when I requested a storage space. I was told it would remain on site so it wasn’t a big deal until the manager up and moved the Ubox to another town, my computer and musical equipment was unsecured and bounced and slammed around, damaging my PC monitor. They did work with me to get a storage space, brought my stuff back. Moves are stressful enough this was just a nightmare experience that could have been avoided if not for a stubborn decision from the manager to move a rented UBox without my consent!
Jonas D | Overall Experienceawsome staff , nice unit , nice experience, thank you
RICHARD C | Overall ExperienceTelephone communication could be improved. Calling and being transferred to a main Uhaul number is not helpful.
Pierre B | Overall ExperienceWill use again if needed
Michael M | Overall ExperienceI have been very pleased with u-haul in Swansea On a.couple of occasions I needed information and advice re moving and the willingness a d courteous manners of all the workers there made me they were very interested in helping I'm.anh way they could This also includes Joe who recently retired Thank you.... Susan
Susan D | Overall ExperienceExcellent experience. Staff is great, everything superb well lit, clean, well maintained, bathroom exemplary. ---except for that entrance card reader. The thing is unreliable. It sometimes takes scores of swipes to get in. I see other people struggling with it too. Really should be replaced/repaired or upgraded.
Willard K | Overall ExperienceVery helpful, and kind
julie w | First ImpressionsThese guys are always helpful and pleasant will use again for future needs 5 stars
Todd D | Overall ExperienceUhaul has always been my go to place when I'm in need of a storage place.
RICHARD A | Overall Experiencecost of space was expensive for that small size. did not like the increase of rate for my storage. did not like that I could not access my unit after 10pm, unless I paid more. seems like I was being nickeled and dimed for what I deem as basic access and customer service features for my rental space, for an already overcharged amount of space. staff was always pleasant and professional.
pierre s | Overall ExperienceGreat facility and people. Rented for almost 2 years.
Robert M | Overall Experienceso far my first day was good Jay who showed me to my unit was very helpful and kind this was my first time ever renting a unit and I had a lot of questions that he answered very patiently
Kimberly O | First ImpressionsA fast and efficient process, also reserved a truck, was excellent experience overall.
Linda M | Online Move InThe staff at U-Haul was Friendly and helpful Thank you
ROBERT M | Overall ExperienceWhen I arrived at the facility I had gone into the office with a quick question and I saw the Uhaul employee having a disagreement with a customer. The customer was extremely rude and refused to have an understanding conversation. I just wanted to state that this employee kept calm the entire time. He was polite and rational the whole time, even when the customer was getting pretty loud with him. I was very impressed with how he handled the situation and I’m glad I witnessed it so that I could give this feedback. I did not get the employees name but he was fantastic and deserves the highest praise.
Taiylor M | Online Move InVery convenient location. Friendly and helpful staff. Thank you!
Greg S | Overall ExperienceThe staff is really friendly and helpful.
rosa p | Overall ExperienceNo street level climate control
JUDITH K | Overall ExperienceVery good
Matthew C | Online Move InIt was ridiculously easy. Too easy in fact. Make it a challenge! Just kidding. I would like to say the person at the front desk was very helpful at the Uhaul I went to. He even walked with me to show me my storage unit and gave me the lay of the land. Made everything clear on where I should bring my car around too without me having to ask. Felt like he put himself in my shoes and knew what questions I would have before I could ask them. I liked that a lot. Definitely will be my place to store stuff in the future. I just regret not remembering his name. Thanks again!
Tenjing S | Online Move InI had a customer representative that was fairly grumpy and I felt more like an inconvenience rather than a customer. He did help overall but it was met with initial resistance. I wanted to drop off my UHaul at the Swansea location instead of the Twiggs location after I had just emptied my truck into my storage container and he told me I should adhere to my original reservation. I called Twiggs in Warren, RI and she was lovely and said it shouldn't be a problem to drop off my Uhaul at that Uhaul location. She initiated the change in reservation that allowed me to drop off my Uhaul. She was very helpful! He did overall help and take a truck but I felt as though I was inconveniencing him. He also wore his mask around his neck the whole time.
Bella C | First ImpressionsThis is my first time renting a storage unit. The process was so quick and easy, and the staff is amazing! Office is extremely clean as is the outside property and the unit itself. Highly recommended!
Nichole K | First ImpressionsAlways helpful at this location. I use this every year to store an automobile during winter months. Always really clean and well kept and secured.

DONELE M | Overall ExperienceOur 2nd RV storage season and our last. Our space was always blocked with Uhaul vehicles upon our return. Last straw was when we were blamed for damage caused by Uhaul trucks taking our space.

jennifer s | Overall ExperienceVery good
taylor m | Overall ExperienceThis my first time using a storage facility. I am very pleased with the way everything went.
Antonio B | Overall ExperienceThe average rating is due to the fact that the slide card system never worked to open the gate, so had to go inside to ask to open the gate every time?? no effort was made to correct when asked.
James K | Overall ExperienceWorth the money
Tomas K | Overall ExperienceIt met all expectations
Janis R | Overall ExperienceI would go back without a thought.

christine g | Overall ExperienceThe website and uhaul call center stated the units were drive up. However the flames are two narrow to get a uhaul moving truck into some areas.
andrew j | Overall ExperienceThis was my first time using a storage with UHaul and I was very pleased with the service and the staff was always helpful
todd s | Overall ExperienceI was waiting for a representative at the store, the representative took a call first instead of saying the person on the phone to wait.I was first there, before the call. WRONG
Karina p | Overall ExperienceJoe, and his team are fantastic. It’s the little things - like helping connect my trailer and showing me how to twist the chains because it becomes shorter and will not drag on the road. Thanks guys.
Derek S | Overall ExperienceGreat place.
MARGARET S | Overall ExperienceAlthough everything above well correct, when I went to retrieve my property after 6 months, (April-October) most of my larger furniture was covered in mold. Very unfortunate.
