BRUCE SMore parking. But in their defense it looked like we all showed up at the same time and they did an amazing job getting us all checked in and moved around. They were amazing. Dima was the best.
OLIN YTop notch location. Great people!
CHRISTOPHER SGood Customer Service.
HELDER D | Online Move InEquipment was in excellent condition and staff were knowledge and professional.
JESSICA JWhen I need to make changes to a schedule, the employees at the Alafaya location does whatever it takes to make it happen. Excellent customer service!!
RODNEY KEverything was awesome. Thank you
LAURENCE GThe staff is customer friendly and accomodating. The supplies available in the store facilitates each move. The equipment is operational and clean.
RAFAEL OI had towed a box trailer (empty) to this location and they originally didn't want me to leave it there, but they finally capitulated. After that things were fine.
NATHAN WOnline check in was not working at all, others there dropping off and picking up had the similar problems
KARL AThe employees were so nice and accommodating. I’ve always gotten excellent service at this location. Whenever I need to rent a trailer, U-haul is my place to go. Thank you
TERESA CEasily pick up and the team was very friendly and helpful
JAMES LBe friendlier….I understand that it a busy place but we as customers should get the best customer service possible.
KATRISA BOur salesperson (female) was very friendly and efficient. Clone her!
ERIN BThe girl at the counter was very good
HASAN EThe tires on the trailer were junk, it was constantly bouncing and causing heavy vibration like the tires were flat spotted or severely out of balance. At certain speeds it was so uncomfortable to tow and made the rear end of my truck noticeably bounce. The gentleman who was running the location when I picked it up was amazing though, super friendly and 10/10 customer service on his part.
ROBERT GTotally outstanding
KINARD LShaq & his staff earned a 10+. The level of service,, courtesy and knowledge was very clear with the info on the rental trucks. They were all very friendly, professional and helpful. Ricardo was excellent too! It’s a busy location but I was never rushed. The building/storage I eventually rented was very clean and it remained that way at all times. What I found incredible was how they maintained a public bathroom so clean. Movng is one of the biggest stressors one can experience and Shaquille Davis and his team definitely helped me get through a tough time with a smile. I have recommended this location in particular to friends, family and will continue to do so because I truly can say I had an EXCELLENT experience with U Haul at the East Orlando location because of Shaq…..thank you! Wishing you all continued success!! Mary M.
Marylou O | Overall ExperienceAlot of rat dropping. All my stuff was very moldy. Had to throw away most of it. A waste of money storing it in the first place.
Sheldon A | Overall ExperienceGood atention
ELISABETH SJason and his manager were outstanding. I will be back and recommend this location to my friends because of people like them.
SON HThe cup holders had spots of grime but other than that the vehicle was pretty clean.
BRANDON HAll is good.
JORGE CStaff very friendly and on top of it....they helped me solve wiring problem to tail lights.
JONATHAN BGood and prompt service.
eduardo iThe manager of this location needs to go for customer service training!I also returned it a day early and got no price adjustment.This location is poorly managed and has rental vehicles in customer parking spots.
ROBERT AGreat customer service!
KINARD LThe workers went above and beyond. I appreciate it.
JARELL PThe guy who checked us in/out was really fantastic!!
Jami WShould clean around the gate area it’s trash behind it even tho it’s not on the inside of the gate still isn’t to pleasant to look at besides that all was good
Asia H | Overall ExperienceFirst, the location at Alafaya is the most horrible location for a Uhaul. The traffic in the area is incredible and you need to move across so many lanes of traffic in a large slow truck. Not very convenient or comfortable. The staff is pleasant enough.
JASON MTake better care of all equipment leaving your stores. I had a blowout, a leaking brake line and a taillight out. Very nervous since this all happened on day one.
RODNEY KCharged for an extra day due to facility being closed at drop off time. Charged for fuel when the gas tank was never full to begin with. Asked to show proof of drop off time and advised them to pull up cameras. Was advised their cameras are for their usage not the usage of U-Haul. Eventually refunded day after going back and forth. Next time I’ll take video and/or pics of gas and I’m not sure how to prove a vehicle was dropped off
ALEASA GAt this moment I’m very impressed for the professional and easy and fast response.
BENJAMIN NReliance on cell phone to rent vehicles is bad business. I should not need a smart phone to rent a truck.
DEREK MIt was a good experience, great customer service.
JOSE Jexcellent
DAVID VLooks like they may need a little more room, but the staff on the lot were excellent to deal with and were able to move trucks and trailers around easily. Friendly staff and fairly quick process makes this a great place to rent from.
ALFRED LThe system was down at the location when we arrived and they struggled to find our reservation. We rented a 5x8 trailer and the tires on it were almost 6 years old and bounced around so much that the trailer sounded like it was going to rip off the truck. It has a disclaimer of “minimum tongue weight of 160lbs” yet the trailer is empty when you get it so it moves too much. Had to add cinder blocks when nothing was in it just to keep it from bouncing everywhere.
anthony rEasy truck pick up and return.
CLAUDIO BNothing to Offer
TINA BClarification: we dropped off after hours, so we didn’t speak to anyone.
TIMOTHY RMore customer parking.
JORGE DThe guy that helped me was very kind and helpful
Maks SKeep up your great work!!
HECTOR MGuy who helped me seemed to be new, but when he asked a fellow co worker for help, coworker was quick in responding
CYNTHIA T | Overall ExperienceWhere to start…staff here are great and laid back. The location itself is very congested. We also rented a storage unit here. Getting a large 26’ UHaul truck back to the storage loading area was tricky and had staff back truck out to avoid hitting any of their vehicles. Would have been easier if there was a way to get all the way around the building. The location itself is rather small, and they are dealing with a lot of units on the lot, and have to block a lot of storage unit access to deal with the volume of equipment on their lot.
Garry BThe storage part of the location is fine. The staff in the office are very friendly and helpful. However, the location is too small and congested for the amount of Uhaul equipment on the lot, which leaves very little room to get in or out for loading/unloading into the storage lockers. Though it would be costly, it might be better if Uhaul would either store some of their equipment off site, or entirely move the equipment rental operation to another location.
Garry B | Online Move InThe gas fee is ridiculous. The gas line didn’t match up with what as on the paper. I ended up spending more on gas than the actual truck just to go 5 minutes up the street.
ERICA NMake sure some is in the office and need to improve able to inter and exit the the parking lot
DARELL SPretty subpar experience beginning to end. The app doesn’t work at all. People sleeping behind the counter. Everyone generally seems miserable. When I left, they said they would email a receipt which I still have never gotten.
ZACHARY BExcellent service
KAREN TShout out to Shaquille Davis!!! He was friendly - professional & knowledgeable. I appreciate him to the MAX!!! Thank you Shaquille!!!
RAYMOND MAfter they close my unit would be block anytime ofter 7pm with uhaul trucks
Barbara D | Overall ExperienceDetails about storage access were not explained at all hours etc… I went to storage unit past 1am and denied access not knowing it was not 24hrs
ISAAC T | First ImpressionsU-HAUL is a safe place to leave just about anything.
CARMEN L | First ImpressionsI was very impressed with the professionalism and helpfulness of your staff. The young lady made me feel that I was her first priority.
ARNIE E | First ImpressionsSome of my furniture had water damage. Otherwise it was a good experience but thats a pretty big negative.
Garrett B | Overall ExperienceThe facility was easy to move in and the staff were greag
Drew U | Online Move InMy agreement with Uhaul was 1 month free rental of a 10x10 storage unit per truck rented. I rented 4 trucks. Uhaul required that those rentals be in 4 different locations. Absurd!
MICHAEL S | Overall ExperienceVery disappointed will never rent from U-Haul ever again
michael c | Overall ExperienceVery good, Sheila was amazing great help
Sherry S | First ImpressionsAlways professional, accommodating, supportive team that work at this store.
Marcia f | Overall ExperienceEverything was ready just as manager said. Cart was available nearby so moving boxes in was easy.
MELANIE T | First ImpressionsVery friendly and helpful
VERONICA F | First ImpressionsDonna was amazing and we loved need up renting 2 storage units ! Great service form everyone there
Daniel Y | First ImpressionsTwo keypad system is cumbersome
Gregory P | Online Move InStored my belonging there for 13 months, picked up my things this week and everything was covered in rat droppings and cockroaches. For the money I paid for a climate controlled uni,t I would expect good pest control
JUAN A | Overall ExperienceI had an amazing experience with the storage unit. The hours were adequate, the access was quick and efficient and the dollies made it very Easy to move everything in and out of storage and to the moving truck. They provided a desk clock and the storage unit was clean, smelled great and had a great temperature for everything that was in storage.
Emmanuel R | First ImpressionsStaff was excellent and very friendly
TODD N | Overall ExperienceThank you so much Donna! You're a superstar ✨️
Erin T | First ImpressionsMy home and vehicle just burned down so I'm going through a very traumatic time right now. And Donna really helped put my family and I at ease. She helped get us through this hard time and was so caring and genuine. I'm so grateful that she was my U-haul representative, thank you, Donna!
Erin T | Overall ExperienceI would recommend this U-Haul storage facility to anyone in need of their services because of the humble patience the employees expressed to me as a customer they’re lenient , kind and understanding especially if you’re going through a life crisis and need alittle time to get yourself sorted. So with pleasure I am grateful and pleased to say I’m a valued & loyal customer of the U-Haul located at 11815 E Colonial Dr, Orlando, FL 32826
Martina C | Overall ExperienceUnit was clean, staff was very helpful. Melody and Shaquille went above and beyond. Thank you!
Gavin G | Overall ExperienceDonna and the manager Shaquille were very nice and helpful, definitely will come back again!
Sammy F | Overall Experience24 hour access was not working, the check in boxes were not working very well ever. My unit was first overbooked so I ended up with a smaller unit than I needed. One worker was very rude to my father when he was trying to park due to virtually no parking spaces available. I will never be back to this location or U-HAUL in general.
Luke A | Overall ExperienceExcellent customer service and secure well maintained storage facility!
Ana H | Overall ExperienceThe unit I requested wasn’t available, so the manager gave me another!
Kim W | First ImpressionsThe manager, Shaquille, and Donna were very nice to us.
Sammy F | First ImpressionsI was generally pleased with this facility but would like to comment on the fact that the main access door was broken and unavailable when I went to empty out the unit. This made it very difficult to vacate the unit. There was a small side entrance available but and it was just a nuisance and inconvenience. I’m sure it was a temporary thing but I didn’t even see any staff making an effort to fix the issue.
GLORIA P | Overall ExperienceI booked a unit online, then received a call a few days before move in stating that it had been overbooked and I no longer had a unit. The associate who called said they could get me a bigger unit and a month free which was great. I thought everything was resolved and my move in date was scheduled for July 16th. Upon arrival to the office on July 16th, it turns out the unit had been scheduled for move in on July 13th unbeknownst to myself. So, I now have to use a much smaller unit and must stand up the couch I needed to store vertically. The only reason I am giving two stars is due to the manager attempting to make up for the error by giving me the first month free. If not for that, I would give one star. Regardless, I never plan on using U-Haul storage again.
Luke A | First ImpressionsLove the staff great friendly guys
carolyn r | Overall ExperienceThe staff was always very courteous and friendly. When ever I had a problem , which was seldom. They were extremely helpful. I had the unit for over 5years and really didn’t have any major problems.
cheryl b | Overall ExperienceDonna has excellent customer service. Thank you
bert m | First ImpressionsTook a lot of stress off to know things were in a secure space

carolyn r | First ImpressionsI’ve used U Haul for every move. Very satisfied!
Marcia C | First ImpressionsMy need for a uhual truck and storage unit came at a rushed and unfortunate time. Plans changed from hour to hour and at every turn the associates and manager showed sympathy, understanding, and flexibility that blew me away. Thank you so much for providing terrific service!!!
colton j | Overall ExperienceEric was so good with me and help me with a littler garbage that I have in the storage. The day that I cancel my storage ir was a lady, I don’t remember name she was very gentle and check the storage. I cleaned and clean walls and doors well. Everything was so easy. Thank you for your services. Love and recommended U-Haul to anyone who need storage their furniture. Greatest services guys. Nelly D. Medina
NELLY M | Overall ExperienceAmazing customer service!!!!!
Nadege C | First ImpressionsSome of my items in the storage were damaged from the heat and humidity in the unit's when the AC broke down for 4 or 5 days. But they gave everyone a month free for the 85+ degrees. Outside of that, the staff is great and very professional.
Nathaniel H | Overall Experienceroaches all in my outside unit and the A/C as broken during check out having the workers work in hot air. Just the overall worse experience ever. I had to replace a lot of furniture and wash every piece clothing I owned spending excess money that’s I didn’t have. Then when I got to try to access my outside unit there are uhaul trucks blocking me from exiting .
TYRRELL T | Overall Experience2nd time using this storage facility and anytime I have clothes, sheets, dolls in the unit, they always come back with mold on them. I had sheets there to cover up my other things and when I removed it on the day of the move out it had a huge black stain.
Thamer A | Overall ExperienceThe move in was great, they were efficient, friendly and helpful! Thank you for another excellent experience.
Brenda C | First ImpressionsGreat, clean location where the standard is very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend this location

NELLY M | First ImpressionsGreat service
Margarita G | Overall ExperienceTamir was very helpful and went above and beyond to make sure my storage and uhaul truck rental went as smooth as possible. There are so many stressors that come along with moving so to have great customer service was extremely helpful.
Stephanie R | Overall ExperienceGarbage never use again worst ever I don't care
ALFONSO M | First ImpressionsI've rented storage before but this was a great location because of the manager Rachel. She was friendly, knowledgeable and made my storage experience wonderful. Keep up the good work Alafaya U-haul! Laurie L
Laurie K | Overall ExperienceI rented outside storage and on many occasions my unit was blocked with uhaul rental trucks if i needed access before 7pm they moved them for me but after 7pm I was unable to use my unit
gary c | Overall ExperienceStaff was courteous and very helpful. My only complaint is that for three days at the end of my rental four September they would not prorate the three days or even a week and charge me a full months storage when I really didn’t need it even after I rented a truck.
JOHN B | Overall ExperienceMr Chestnut was excellent!
Angel C | First ImpressionsRachel was very helpful
Michelle D | First ImpressionsRachel and her team at the Orlando Alafaya location were absolutely amazing. They went beyond and made my move flawless. Thank you again Rachel
Laurie K | First ImpressionsMs Douglas excellent employee, she made our experience with u haul happy
Cynthia d | Overall ExperienceOnly downside is that Uhaul trucks would block entry to door.
Wisnolda D | Overall ExperienceThe staff is professional and courteous. The facility is clean and we'll maintained. I would definitely recommend this location to everyone.
tyler c | Overall ExperienceExperience was very nice, all the representatives were kind and courteous and ready to help.
JOHN B | First ImpressionsStorage site has animal problem, racoons size scat found all over my belongings. Half the time I had to go to office in order to get to my unit due to code errors. One time a payment was never ran, even though I had autopay, wanted to charge me a late fee. Always chaotic and hectic in the office. Had a left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing feel. Obvious high turnover at this location. Will not use u-haul again for storage.
Mark B | Overall ExperienceI would have rate the storage with 5 stars if the roll down gate had been operating properly since the begining.
Javier A | Overall ExperienceGreat customer service!
Jennyfer D | First ImpressionsBRIT IS ALWAYS AWESOME!! She's a Great Leader, give her a Rai$e!! :)
REBECCA V | Overall ExperienceThe personal was amazing!! I’m so happy with the service. Only God know all the huddles that came across the path but you guys where able to make this relocation happen for me!! I’m so grateful for this company from the beginning. From the personal in Green Bay WI to the personal of the Orlando Alafaya store!! You guys are amazing!! Thank you so much !!
mario v | First ImpressionsStaff was excellent... I really appreciate everything they did to make my relocation process a smooth and easy process. JRodriguez
Julio R | Overall ExperienceThe staff was very nice and helpful. Easy pickup and drop off. I should had come here 2 years ago. Thanks for everything.
Jeff C | First ImpressionsI did not get my refund for the month of October. I had checked out before the end of September and I still got charged for the month of October. I had called the customer service number they had put into the system to get my refund and I never did. Also, I never go a phone call back about it! Someone needs to fix this.
VALERIA N | Overall ExperienceNo entiendo, si yo saque mis pertenencias el 09/04/2020 por que extrageron dinero de mi cuenta September 16/2020 y ademas me envian un email diciendo que el proximo pago sera el 10/16/2020, yo me puse en contacto con mi banco, espero que regresen el dinero a mi cuenta, nadie responde el telefono en sus oficinas, mi numero es el 702 408 7222 para que me den una explicacion, o saber si tengo que hacer un reclamo formal, att Leonel Castillo.
Leonel C | Overall ExperienceThe only Issue I had was being charged after I had sent in my move out pictures and information online and then the process wasn’t finished on uhaul end. Sending me and my mom notices That I still owed money after I moved out
Amanda P | Overall ExperienceThe entirety of the property is too small and unsafe for customers in every way possible. Trucks and vehicles are double parked, there is no space for turn around, and no space for parking in general. No assistance was provided in accessing my unit and dollys were not offered for use. This is the worst experience I’ve ever encountered at any storage facility.
Melissa S | First ImpressionsGreat workers, very efficient!
tamia h | Overall ExperienceJoshua was very helpful. Great location!
Ruth T | First Impressionskeep up the excellent customer service.
Adrina H | Overall ExperienceThe 2 associates at the front desk were friendly and quick in their service!....very clean facility...not a single bug or roach when I emptied my unit!
kamlesh n | Overall ExperienceThank you guys for all that you’re doing in such a crazy time! The two guys who helped me did an amazing job doing so even while following the inconvenient guidelines.
jennifer t | First ImpressionsGreat Thank yoy
Emilia L | Overall ExperienceMy unit was always blocked by a uhaul truck. I don’t have access to my unit. I called and filed a complaint with no call back from the manager.
Ali S | Overall ExperienceThe storage facility itself was great, it was clean and secure. The office staff on the other hand needs some retraining in customer service. The manager down to the one or two front desk employees.
Louise C | Overall Experience5 years of use and everything was perfect!
AMPARO B | Overall ExperienceI went 3 times from the 1st time i rented the unit and all 3 time i had to go insidebso they can move some trucks that were blocking my access to my storage unit.. very disappointed.
danny o | Overall ExperienceBrit was fantastic she answered all my questions and took care of my truck and storage locker
Billy B | First ImpressionsThank you
Gloria B | Overall ExperienceGood natured staff. Genuinely concerned about customers, willing to go the extra mile to help customers achieve their goals
Dan B | First ImpressionsThe general manager was overbearing and downright dictatorial in the way he runs the facility. It reflects very poorly giving the fact that I have always been treated with respect in other loca
Joe A | Overall ExperienceManager Josh was very accommodating and helpful. I would recommend this location because of their attention to customer needs and flexibility.
Andrew G | First ImpressionsThis place is by far the best for customer service! Everyone is so helpful and courteous! Rented a truck and storage unit and everything went fast and easy!
alisha l | First ImpressionsThere were times I needed to have access to my unit outside of posted hours.
nathan p | Overall ExperienceVery helpful and accommodating staff.
Jennifer I | Overall ExperienceStore manager Ms. Omega was so unprofessional. I hate to say so, but she definitely needs to have a refresher course on customer service and wake up call that she don't own U-haul, but works for Uhaul
JAVIER S | ReservationGreat service.
Isreal M | Overall ExperienceChecking in and checking out was great. The staff was really helpful and courteous, especially Omega. The only downside to this location is the door, which has two different swipe pads on either side.
AMBER M | Overall ExperienceAlthough they had given away my booked storage unit, they instead upgraded me at no change to a larger unit (thankfully still airconditioned). The employees were super nice and helpful.
AMBER M | ReservationWorst experience ever! Very unlikely to use uhaul again
Alex M | ReservationExcellent experience!! Had my storage unit for about 3 years and never had a problem. Thank you!
GARY T | Overall ExperienceTodo muy conforme
