Staff were very friendly and helpful at both pickup and dropoff. We were provided with a nearly-new van (under 1,000 miles on it!).

I will absolutely continue using this U-Haul service. The staff is truly amazing and consistently goes above and beyond to help with every aspect of our in-town moving needs. They are incredibly helpful, professional, and provide outstanding customer service from start to finish. It’s rare to find a team that is this kind, attentive, and genuinely committed to making the experience smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend!

Everyone who works at this location was great. Only frustrating experience was the system being down, so it took much more time and work to get me checked in. Again, each employee was super helpful and apologetic, I just wish the tech was running appropriately.

i requested an equipment dolly/ appliance dolly and it was not given to me. the system was crashed the entire day so i do not fault the workers but i would love a refund i was promised "when the system was back up". the entire system is archaic and frustrating

This location managed to accommodate a last-minute change in reservation (made at another location) and got me on the road in record time. I was able to return a day early, no questions asked, and the process was super easy. The gentlemen who helped me were both super friendly and efficient. Well done!

False advertising for sure. The mileage charges is the biggest scam. It cost more to drive 28 miles than the actual fee of $29.95. It ended up costing me $105 when they advertise it being only 29.95 And that's even after I paid for my own gas on the promise that I could get it even cheaper. I will never use you all again for anything. You ought to be ashamed of yourselves!!

We were surprised that the gas gauge, when we picked up the van, was below the 7/8 mark we were required to return it with. In retrospect, we should have noted that with the staff member.

This isn't really a maintenance issue. I forgot to mention when I turned in the truck, but the right mirror adjustment was way off. I admit I didn't try to adjust the mirror (are they adjustable?). But I was ok, by stretching my head over towards the middle of the cab I made it work.

Other than forgetting to put the dolly in the cargo van before I left, everything was quite awesome about my rental. I had to change it a couple (or 3) times before i actually picked up the van, then extend it once I got it, but all in all, everyone was awesome that I worked with both in person and on the phone. My only worry is I rented 8 ready storage bins (the plastic ones) for a week and I do not know how I am going to return them. I will worry more about it when the time comes to return them, but some assistance or ideas would be nice as I am disabled and severely limited in transportation to TriMet. Thank you kindly. have a great day. Sincerely, S.

This location is amazing. UHAUL Corporate's lack or lapse of communication with their local stores has been a consistent problem with my orders and causes undue stress on both customers AND their store employees. Corporate and dispatch, do better! Powell location, y'all are angels.

I was charged over $120 for a $30 truck rental, and this doesn't even include the gas I paid to bring the truck back up to where it was, and I was forced to download and subscribe to U-Haul's app. Had I not had a working or even a working non smart phone, I would have been charged even more because I wouldn't have been able to return the truck. I was not notified of an afterhours returning fee as well. Plus, I also have to do all the checks around the truck when that has always been the U-Haul's employee duties but apparently, I work for U-Haul now and have to do their job.

I disagree with the rental return policy that you need to download the app. That was frustrating.

Allie C

After-hours return rigmarole sucks bigtime. I was close to just dropping my key in the dropbox without going through the bullshit, but instead I ended up locking the key in the truck after completing the online garbage. Roadside "Assistance" wanted $200 for a lockout fee, which I am unwilling and unable to pay. Go unlock your own truck on your own time. The oily reason I bothered trying is out of courtesy since the key was turned to show the display. This has nothing to do with the location specifically; it is a systematic problem with the company at large. Be better.

The truck had multiple problems: dash alert about stabilitrack or something. Also it complained of low tire pressure on the passenger front tire (it looked OK to me but the alert was constant). The air conditioning blew warm air so that was a bummer. Also the padlock on the rear door was not attached to the chain, which was kind of irritating. Normally the vehicles I get from this location are great but this one was in rough shape

The people working there definitely hated their lives. The van smelled like cigarettes so bad. I was charged for 13 extra miles when I paid for 100 miles, and only went 94. Also filled the gas tank up (more than what I started with) and was charged for 2 gallons of gas still. Customer service was terrible.

I’m sorry I don’t know the name of the guy who checked me out, but he was incredible. He was knowledgeable, efficient, friendly, professional, answered my questions that I’m sure people ask a zillion times a day with good humor and reassurance. That guy is at a great employee to have. Usually I get somebody who looks like they’re way too busy and doesn’t really want to have to deal with other people. Not this guy, he really made the experience positive and reassuring. Think of it, most people don’t walk in there having driven trucks before, so he was really an asset to the U-Haul experience

Honestly everything was great expect the automated check in and check out process. Checking out, I was there during business hours so I didn’t worry about it. But returning? So many damn questions that take forever especially with the requirement for added photos. Seemed especially excessive as I paid for safetrip. In addition, I was charged a fuel surcharge even tho use the fuel level was at the requested level when checked out. I think the calibration of the fuel level through the app isn’t as precise as needed to accurately show why level the vehicle is at.

The no contact pickup was a pain and it was still contact so you shouldn’t offer that if we still have to go get the keys from you. Also I ordered a furniture dolly and never got it but got charged for it.

Messed up my online reservation so that when I arrived no truck was ready, then my reservation disappeared while I was talking to person at counter. Reservation was charged and closed While I was still there before the truck was even available. Finally got a truck but when I returned it, my receipt was for the original cancelled/messed up online reservation, which charged me an incorrect amount. I was charged for gas even though I returned it at the same level. Major mess up

This was the worst U-Haul experience I have had. The employees were overworked, under informed, stretched too thin, and had little to no manners which is fair considering the working conditions. I got my vehicle nearly an hour late, and soaking wet and had to go inside to ask for a new van. Granted it was wet because it was cleaned but that’s not okay to have me wait that long then send me out to a wet, unusable vehicle. Hated this experience.
