I had to walk around to find an employee to get the trailer hitched to my vehicle.

For two times in a row I picked up a trailer from this location that needed repair
Geoffrey FSo so when when I reserve my uhaul, I called and verified that they got my reservation. The young lady tell me, yes, and there will be a truck there for me, when I arrived, there was a young man that was new. He said, welcome in and everything he told me.He couldn't handle my reservation, so he told me to talk to the young man with the glasses . He was very rude about the reservation.He said, we don't have any trucks right now, so we can't help you. So I asked him, how can you all reserve?Or let somebody make a reservation.And you don't have any trucks available, so I ask them, could I use the van?He was like you have to have a major credit card.I said, well, you would have to accommodate me for something.He was very rude. So I told him I couldn't wait till the next day, so he called the manager and the manager told him to give me a 20 foot truck. Well, I didn't need a 20 foot truck. I just needed something to get a washing dryer and come back.It barely took me an hour. The only thing that saved me for going off on him was the new young man That had just started saying, if he have been here and know the protocol, he would have made sure I was satisfied meaning call his manager with no problem. Well, I sit there and waited for them to get a truck. Another truck pulled up, and I asked him, can I get that truck? He hesitated and was like, yeah, I was like. You don't have to clean it. All I need you to do is check it in and I need to go get my washing dryer. He still didn't help me.The new young man is the one who helped me. I don't know what is going on.This is not the first time I use this location.I use this location.The first of the year in last year and had no problems.But when I went in this time, i was very unsatisfied. The young man that was very rude needs a little bit more work on his customer service
Kasheena PMy truck was cancelled one hour before I needed it and transferred to a very inconvenient location and then changed from a 10’ truck to a 26’ truck which I did not need nor feel comfortable driving. Luckily a nice lady at my original location helped me find what I needed and moved me to this vestavia location. I don’t know why your system tried to do what it did but it was very frustrating and no one called to work out a better solution and when I tried calling was put hold the entire time while driving to my original location. If that nice lady did not help me when I arrived in person I would not have been able to complete our move
Alexis LWhen I asked for a trailer with a ramp, the 6 x 12 foot was suggested. I thought that was fine, only to find out that the space to get in the trailer was not 6 feet. I had some rolling racks for merchandise that fit in the trailer well, but I had to take products off of the shelves and turn the racks sideways to get them in. Caused delay of time and energy. In fact, I brought the trailer back later that day because it did not fit my exact needs. I was charged for two days rental. I will be going to my location later today to resolve the issues. This location does things quite well. This was just a personal thing with me.
FRANKLIN JVery friendly staff and was a quick pick up and drop off.
Heather OEntire staff was EXTREMELY rude and lacked any sense of customer service. They were more interested in chatting with each other and looking at their cell phones. The extremely rude ran outside was less than helpful and a complete asshole. I will never use this location again.
Ross NConfirm my reservation earlier than just the afternoon before!! 👍👍👍👍
Alan SAnthonio and his team at Vestavia Hills Uhaul are always the best.
Jeffrey WVery friendly staff made returning it easy
Michelle SGreat customer service
Roy SHonor the $14.95 price /day on the counter sign
JENNINGS BWe were charged a cleaning fee. The trailer was swept clean before we returned it. The rented items were left in the trailer and that’s it. Maybe they charged us because some of the blankets weren’t folded? Who knows. It’s only $15 but it was clean.
Patricia CThey were going to charge me an extra $235 for returning it there when we were TOLD to return it there. Again, it just added unnecessary time on the phone and stress.
ANNA PI lost my phone in my car and the employee who unhooked me helped call my phone and and find it, despite the fact it was raining. Very friendly and helpful employee. Thank you.
KIRK RThey computer system was down and the check in process was quite long. Over an hour wait. While I understand its not the fault of the specific location... the computer issues caused the agen to select the wrong return location.
Tracy AWhen I arrive home I noticed that the back door was locked and there was no key to unlock it. I reached back out to the store and basically told me it was my problem. I took pictures and to let them know know I had proof and they still didn’t want to hear it. I was told I should have done the walk. Through before I left and I responded we should have done it together because I wouldn’t have taken a truck that’s locked that I can’t use. So I couldn’t use the truck that night I had to wait until the next day to go to Home Depot and purchase some bolt cutter to cut the lock which was another 85 dollars. The staff was very unprofessional
CHRISTOPHER PThe system was down so it took a really long time to check in and get our equipment, but the people were really nice about it.
Eric UGreat customer service. THe computers had issues while I was returning, but it happens. Quicker process would be preferred.
Greg LThe guy at the drop off location was very helpful. Since the trailer number was incorrect he had to put the correct trailer number in the notes.
Rick LBig help by your staff.
Robert WEverything was great,, van was new and clean,, was cheaper than we estimated,, got a refund as soon as it was dropped off,,much cheaper than metro ,, will use them again..
Thomas WMy.experience at this location is always outstanding. The team works quickly to get customers in and out
ARGERIA SCheck in was a breeze. They said all was good and we did not have to do anything.
James NThey need to add after hours turn in instructions to their page and some directional information on afterhours turn in locations and procedures on premises.
Jeremy HService was great and the trailer worked like it should.
Jason TCan't remember the gentleman's name but the same person helps me most times and he is really strong in his role.
Michael LCustomer service should continue to be your focus
David FThe lady that helped check out and hookup the equipment was great!! Knowledgeable and just a super helpful person.
Isaac AYou guys are amazing 10 stars
Martiez MCan't think of anything
William CAntonio and his staff were so helpful and kind. He went out of his way to get my SUV wired properly so that I didn’t have to cancel my trip. HE IS THE BEST!!
Greg HCustomer service was horrible. Storage unit was not ready and ended up having to go to a different location down the street after wasting an hour at the location. Unit and truck were not ready at the same time. Was told first month would be free and ended up paying $164.
Adam WFacility was well stocked, staff were friendly, professional and helpful. Mark installed my new lighting harness and I was on my way in a reasonable time frame.
Bob wFriendly helpful service and a clean new van!
Vincent MGreat compared to last time i went there
DANIELLE MMarco is the nicest and attentive person I have ever dealt with at the Vestavia location. I have used this location many times before and have usually dreaded the people at the counter. He is first rate! Also the Dodge vans are excellent.
Jeffrey DAntonio was great! I am very appreciative of his assistance. He answered all of my questions and concerns. I would definitely rent from here again.
chelsia bThe truck I received had extensive damage to the very top. I understand it is my responsibility to inspect the truck before leaving, but that truck should not have been available for renting.
Jonathon HI'd never rented any kind of moving vehicle before, it was so simple! I'll go back if I need to move again.
Nancy MAll good
rodney tGreat service with a smile and easy check in/out service
Travina CAntonio went over and beyond to make sure I was taken care of. I would most definitely recommend!!
TOMMIE C | First ImpressionsYour staff is excellent and extremely helpful. I just wish I could have 24/7 access to my storage space. Otherwise I have nothing but the highest praise for the staff of that store. I give them a 100% recommendation to anyone who asks!
Sean A | Overall ExperienceShort in front of house staff, a long time in line waiting. Crew member was doing a great job even still.

Shequieta A | First ImpressionsThe staff was very helpful and courteous. Spent time explaining the process and showing me the unit to make sure it was what I needed.
mara t | Overall ExperienceLights did not always work or there was a delay in the lights turning on. Would be helpful to have light in the unit since it is indoors.
myste k | Overall ExperienceEverything was great!!! Thank you!!
jefferey f | Overall ExperienceStaff was horrible. Storage was horrible. Layout was horrible. Will keep it stored until I have to but I will never use U-Haul again.
THOMAS V | First ImpressionsI would not recommend to a friend because the price should be prorated if moving out early. Customer service has always been exceptional.
Jessica O | Overall ExperienceThe Store was supposed to open at 9. No one showed until 9:45. I had movers scheduled, so now we are out double the money for movers because of how long it took for the person who showed at 9:45 to help us. Both employees who came took personal phone calls on their cell phones while assisting customers who had been waiting an hour for the store to open up. My first month of storage was supposed to be free per the promo and the employee charged me and then informed me there was nothing she could ro and I would have to come back next month if I got billed then. When we came back in after unloading to return the truck, an employee was sitting behind the desk on a stool sleeping. My husband got a picture of this. Unprofessional, untimely, rude.
Hannah G | First ImpressionsQuick & Easy process!

JONATHAN G | Overall ExperienceWill use again.
ernestine r | Overall ExperienceGreat storage spaces, all inside and secured. 1-stop shop for moving needs. Probably could direct people to park somewhere else in the property to no effect others trying to access storage bay.
Joseph W | Overall ExperienceThe restroom was extremely clean! Antonio was an amazing help to setting up my storage unit and helping with my trailer return! Customer service is amazing!
Courtney R | First ImpressionsEvery time I went to access my storage unit the main door was locked. I would then have to go into the office and wait for someone to come unlock the door which was usually about five minutes.

Nico K | Overall ExperienceEveryone is very helpful and kind.
Pam C | ReservationI used the U-box moving option, so did not see the facility, but my experience working with Jay on delivery and pickup was excellent. I appreciate having such a convenient way to move cross country.
Danica W | Overall ExperienceThe people at the counter were great. I was mislead on the telephone by someone somewhere else about the hours that I have access. That was very disappointing.
