Cargo light did not work. Tried to contact local store multiple times to extend unit. Stayed on hold for extended periods once for over an hour only to get disconnected. Front tires no tread or grip. Going around a curve during rain approximately 35 mph normal curve not sharp. Front tires started sliding off road very hazardous situation. I corrected thankfully. Unacceptable!!!!!!

The U-Haul was clean but smelled like smoke.
Michelle D.I picked up the rental with less than 1/4 of a tank. I also requested a 15' truck during my original reservation. The smaller truck was unavailable so I was given the larger 26' truck instead. I filled the larger tank with enough fuel to cover my trip and then a little extra to be on safe side since the gauge within the truck was inaccurate. The mileage remaining dropped from 198 to 177 simply by turning the vehicle on and off. After I made my trip and needed to drop off the vehicle, I was notified that I would not be reimbursed for any remaining fuel I left in the tank during my reservation. How is it that I can be given a $19.60 credit for picking up a truck with less than a certain amount of fuel but I'm not reimbursed for bringing the truck back with much more than what I picked it up at? With gas well over $5/gal in most places, this is ridiculous. Someone at Uhaul should be able to credit me for the extra $75 worth of fuel after I turned in my vehicle. If given the chance to do this over, I'd probably choose a penske truck.
Hunter D.Very helpful and courteous
Connie K.phone calls were made, delivery was made 2 days late due to credit card issues. overall rating out of a poddile 10. 6
Randy H.Excellent service and very efficient. I would use again and recommend to my friends!
Kate C.On the website, clicking “no thanks†multiple times for your upsells is extremely aggravating. I came close to canceling the order due to that.
richard F.The two employees were great!! Amazing customer service!! So knowledgeable, helpful and polite!! 😊
Connie P.A trash receptacle for customer use upon returning a vehicle would be nice. Moving in the summer requires heavy water consumption in some areas and empty (or otherwise) plastic water bottles are almost almost a given in the cab of any moving van/truck.
gordon M.Everything was great.
Keith B.The individual who served me was rude and disrespectful. He refused to believe I have never heard of this rule where Uhaul doesn't pay you for gas you gift them not believe me that the person at the pickup location literally told me nothing.
JONATHAN B.Good experience after a long drive.
Anissa J. | First ImpressionsDidn’t like the fact that I had to pay for a full month of storage and my items were only in there for a few days. No discount or anything was given.
Debreka J. | Overall ExperienceDuring the checkout of the storage reservation on the internet, I was informed of not being charged for the 1st month of storage due to reserving a 20’ Uhaul truck in conjunction with the storage. Upon checkout & signing the documentation at the facility, the service rep did not want to discuss or explain as to why I was informed of not being charged for the 1st month of storage rental. She was very inconsiderate and slightly rude.
Quincy L. | First ImpressionsOver a years time that I had it everything was good except once when they took my payment and didn’t put it in the computer and 3 days later I was sent a email saying it wasn’t paid but I went with my receipt and then they changed it…..
Marie P. | Overall ExperienceStaff was wonderful and courteous.
damon m. | First ImpressionsI am trying to locate Toyota keys left in vehicle can you help?
Terry T.I returned the vehicle around 10pm & was still charged for the next day. I did receive a credit you should verify if vehicles were returned early before u bill the cc card.
carey H.Additional charges not explained in contactless pickup. Dealt with that, but card was charged and billed that day, but still seems to have an authorization pending that must be dropped.
Olatunde S.The forklift driver Becky in Shreveport was outstanding in her work and professionalism. She's the best thing at U-Haul!
ERIC N.Online check out took about 15-20 minutes. Once I was finally able to get the key I had to wait for someone to come in and get the key for me because the other person was helping a customer. Check in was easy
Brooke B.The location I made the reservation at sent me to a diffrent location to receive my rental, which was also the wrong location. I wasted an hour and a half because I had to go to 3 doffrent U-haul locations to get my rental. No one communicated this to me.
Christopher T.None of the marker lights on the right side of the trailer worked. The right rear running light didn't work and the left turn signal didn't work. When I told the guy about it when I brought the trailer back he said he just changed the turn signal that it's a bad ground and wasn't concerned about any of the running or marker lights that didn't work.
Nicholas P.Nothing could be done to improve. The service was fast, friendly and as efficient as possible.
Henry P.Excellent service and the staff were pleasant and friendly
Letitia S.Mts sonnier and the young man she was working with were very nice and helpful
LINDA G.Customer service was on point! 5 stars
Johnette C.The Employee was very professional and courteous. Thank you for an excellent experience.
Gwendolyn D.better suspension in the truck perhaps? that thing FOUND bumps in the road.
Harold S.I had booked another located in Lafayette, LA to drop off the trailer (on Pinhook Rd.) and indicated what time I was dropping it off, only to arrive and discover it closed at noon! I had an appointment less than an hour from that time, and was leaving town the next day, so HAD to drop off the trailer. Thank God for the rep on the phone, and the location I was rerouted to. They were SO MUCH BETTER!
SherriPitre R.Transaction and service were flawless. No improvement needed. I will be a return customer.

jacob B.Easy and friendly experience
Robert R.Truck was very unsafe to drive .. the truck is missing bad it pulls really badly. It's stunk inside very bad as well. Will never use uhual again
keana P.Everything was great
Samuel D.I received a 15-foot uhaul covered truck. After loading things in the truck, it began to rain. There were LEAKS EVERYWHERE. not just a few drips that can be covered with a tarp- it was a steady stream of water in 4 locations, covering all of my furniture in water. When we took videos of the damage and tried to exchange the truck with uhaul, we were charged for another truck stating that there were signs in the trucks that say “water resistant, not waterproofâ€. I completely understand a little water getting in there. But when there are PUDDLES, and huge STREAMS of water leaking everywhere, that's unacceptable. We were charged for both trucks. I am extremely upset that the manager charged us for both and is not making an effort to help us. The staff were sympathetic however they were unable to do anything without the manager. I cannot believe we were charged for both trucks. We have been trying to talk to the manager or corporate and cannot get in touch with anyone. Will not use in the future.
LeighAnne N.I showed up last minute and they helped me any way. Very nice and professional. Certainly going back!
Chris W.Your insurance is bogus. Won't cover damage
Ed B.Nothing! Your service was exceptional!
Henrietta M.Replace gas and was added gas charges on bill.
Cynthia F.Have used this location several times and have always had professional and timely help.
Shannon V.Above my previous U-Haul experiences
James V.I have always had a good experience renting vehicles here, and the staff members are honest.
Mona B.Y'all don't need to improve nothing.
CURLEY C.The staff were totally amazing and helpful!
Douglas W.The drop off point was great and convenient to our location. It had adequate lighting and felt safe to drop off at night. However, I was not sure where I should've dropped off the vehicle since the establishment was closed when I dropped it off. I didn't want to block any vehicles, trailers, or storage entrances so I dropped it off the best way I could without blocking too much. Better identification of a drop off space or parking would have been nice.
Javier G.Nothing
Deborah K.Ordered truck online the day before. 1) Lost an hour picking up truck due to issue with rental 2) fuel was at 1/4 tank told to return with same amount. Refueled had 1/2 tank when returned but charged 3 gallons more 3) personal very unhelpful and rude This was a local rental
Randy B.We had issues getting my vehicle on the vehicle transporter. The frame of my vehicle was getting caught on the inside of the transporter. The employee instructions caused my vehicle to get temporarily stuck and the employee and my father had to manually force the vehicle off the transporter. We have used a transporter in the past and had no issue. Not sure of the problem this time.
Elizabeth G.Personnel was friendly, got me out in no time.
Thomas H.Aaron was INCREDIBLE and bravo to great leadership and customer service show by Mr. Jerry.
leah S.I want to commend the entire staff at this location!
Deric H.nothing

Melissa H. | First ImpressionsI only use the storage building for half of the month of October and was told that I would not be able to receive a discount for this month. My things have been in your storage over 18 months. It seems to me that U- Haul would help out good paying customers. Just like you want good or bad reviews from your customers we would like a little help from u guys as well . I had two of your building and never miss a payment. I moved my things because the rent went up and I I still trying to get back into my house. Things are very riff a this time and having to live on a fix income is not easy.
ROX C. | Overall ExperienceBaily was super courteous and proficient. He really made the process smooth.
randy l. | First ImpressionsEveryone was so nice and professional
Loretta C. | Overall ExperienceMy move went very well using the 15 ft truck & car dolly. I received a free month storage unit for free as well as I really needed that.
Bernie E. | Overall ExperienceGreat helpful friendly group made me feel like I was important. “Hi Mr. Dale.” “ What can we do for you Mr. Dale “ “Thanks Mr.Dale “ I’ve rented trucks there several times and they always remember me.
Dale S. | First ImpressionsThe manager was excellent however the unit I originally reserved was not available when I got there to sign and pay. Thankfully the manager had another unit available to suit my needs. I would highly recommend the manager for promptly making it right. I seems there is a communication disconnect between physical U-Haul storage facilities and the online service. The online service just lets people reserve units that are not physically available. U-Haul should talk to the physical store before allowing reservations. This very well could have become a very bad review because I drove an hour and a half to get there after I spoke to the U-Haul customer support center that confirmed everything was good to go. Thank goodness that the manager there was able to get me into a unit regardless. Some people may not be so lucky in the future. U-Haul should communicate with the facility manager to confirm the number of units available for reservations before letting customers book a reservation. I gave 4 stars because I didn’t have to go find another place to bring my truck load of stuff. The staff at the facility deserves 5 STARS! The online customer support deserves 2 STARS for not actually confirming my reservations with the facility staff when I asked for a confirmation before making the trip and told me the unit was available. If I had gotten there with all my things and the manager couldn’t rectify the problem I most probably would have never done business with U-Haul again because of the false confirmation I received from the support center.
Jake M. | First ImpressionsBrett was extremely helpful and patient! He did not rush me or made feel he didn’t have time! He explained everything well!

Donn M. | First ImpressionsWhen I had my first encounter with staff member to verify my storage rental, I was not given an access code nor any other useful information needed for my storage rental. On my arrival on move-in date, I had no access to to the storage facility.
Derek B. | First ImpressionsI went to load my storage unit and my access code did not work, I tried and tried to get ahold of the store manager for an hour before the doors wouldn’t open and I couldn’t return my truck because the gm never answered his phone. (Brett Dwyer)
Sydney B. | First ImpressionsNeeded a storage unit to store a few things, I went online to try to find something convenient and in my budget. I decided to go with uhaul. When I went to get everything set up, I was promptly greeted. The staff at this place is amazing, they took to time to thoroughly explain everything I needed to know and answer any question I had. I would definitely recommend this place to any of my friends and family. You guys are rockstars!
