I think the standard app for uhaul STINKS!!!!! The process is insanely overly complex than what is necessary. The staff is really nice, but they are overwhelmed if more than 2 people show up because the process is overly complex. Seriously, give over it HQ, you can't control it all.

The representative was nice and knowledgeable. I like the app to check out the van. It was easy to use and to document the condition of the van. Keep up the great work.

The staff was incredible -- particularly the person who checked us in and got us on our way. We rented on a day that the UHaul system was down, and the person who helped us was so kind, positive, and eager to make things as smooth as possible. I regret that I didn't get his name, but he checked us in at 9am on Saturday, Jan 17 and was someone who seemed to be passing the manager torch onto another staff member. I would love to give him MAJOR kudos, he kept things as calm and easy as possible on a stressful moving day! He made me feel very prioritized as a customer.

We only went 6 miles TOTAL, and were charged $14 for 3 gallons of gas. I do not believe that a 10ft van got only 2 mpg. This is outrageous and I’m obviously being charged for someone who didn’t top off the tank before I took it but did after. In addition, it’s very dishonest to advertise a van for $19.95 that costs $50 before I even pulled out. Just be straight and advertise the flat rate.

Employees were super helpful, they help me load my car on the trailer which I was really worried about doing myself. The moving van was almost brand new, super fast, and even at 10' housed a ton of stuff. I had to drive from Oregon to New Mexico over terrible roads, and this Uhaul equipment was a life-saver! Thank you!

U-Haul made our local move incredibly easy! We only needed a truck for a short trip to move a washer and dryer, and everything went smoothly from start to finish. The vehicle was clean and reliable, pickup and return were fast, and the customer service was kind and efficient. It saved us time, money, and stress. Highly recommend!

The team at the Powell location are very courteous and professional. My only distress came at the end of my rental as I exited the vehicle. I wrongly assumed a running board was present and so I basically fell out of the cab onto the concrete. At 69, I could have seriously insured myself but I think, thankfully, all I have is a very bruised tailbone.

I want to shout out to Calamity who checked me in for their helpfulness. They made check-in a breeze. I found the online interface for the existing damage photos to he clunky. I don't need U-haul often enough to download an app. The old paper method of marking damage was more quick and photos can always be taken to back things up. Sometimes technology doesn't save you time.

I have used this location's services 4 times in the past 5 years. I have always been met with the warmest welcome and the most jovial accommodation. I honestly wish more places of business could do right by their clerks as U-haul evidently does by theirs because the service is never second-best. They've made difficult transitions comfortable and easy, which is the most we can hope to enjoy in this life.

It's kind of weird how this location just hands you the keys and says where to go get your truck. They don't pull it out for you and the trucks are all parked up really close to each other, mirrors tucked in, sunshade in the windshield. Drop off is a breeze though.

Van was fine.We drove it less than 10 miles and returned it in under 90 minutes. Not happy at all that the fuel gauge was lower than 1/4 tank before we left the lot and not at the 1/4 tank mark like the contract said, evidenced in a picture that I showed to the clerk upon return. I was told at checkout a gallon of gas was $5.50 and I was fine with paying that fee for a gallon that I probably only used half of for 9 miles. No one told me about a $30 "fuel fee" in addition to the $5.50 per gallon charge and I was charged for 2 gallons that would have been impossible for me to use in 9 miles. I'm sure the $30 fuel fee is buried in your small print so I'm not fighting it but it's garbage price gauging and shady as all get out. Do better UHaul.

My 24/7 rental wasn’t ready when I arrived. When making the reservation the quoted price was $30 cheaper than the final total. Rather deceptive.

The floor of the cargo van's storage area was dirty. I had to lay down cardboard to make sure the sofa I was moving remained clean. The people at the location were very friendly. The mobile check in process was awkward. Code to scan for location was in one area, van was in another, and then I had to go inside to get the keys, which felt like it defeated using mobile for check in. If I have to go inside, I may as well just not use mobile.
