I picked up the truck with just over half a tank of gas. Drove it approximately 10 miles total. When I received the bill I was charged for 17 gallons of gas. I won't be recommending this location to anyone.

Douglas P.

Have used this location multiple times. Very friendly and worked hard to get the contract fixed due to the incorrect trailer number being used. Would recommend this facility to anyone.

I was overcharged by almost one month after notifying the facility that I was moving out in person. I received a phone call from the office almost after I moved out trying to collect another payment. I would appreciate a full refund.

One thing that is frustrating is that it appears that the loading dock doors do not work after a certain time of the day. I have gone many times around 6 or 7 and the door would not open.

I was informed that I would not be charged for an extra day when I called to let staff know I would be 2 hours later than scheduled drop off time. I noticed the charge after I left and received an email notification. No one informed me this was going to happen. Substandard communication.

1. U-haul app did not work. I could not upload photos of wrong mileage and fuel level; and small dent on the front of the truck. I ended up calling the attendant onsite to help me. With a 9am appointment I only left the lot at 10:00. [I did only start the process at 9:10 after finding the truck]. 2. I ran late, because I started late. Might be charged for whole more day. 3. When I returned the truck I could upload photos, but because I could not upload the pictures in the am [which I still have] I was charged a fee for not fueling the truck. I indicated as much in the comments. Not sure what next steps will be. SUMMARY: I will NEVER use the app again. If it turns out it is the only way to rent without having to pay a 'convenience fee' I will take my business elsewhere. Using the app is not worth the hassle and aggravation. While I was struggling to check the truck out I remembered why we rented a Budget truck the last time we needed to haul stuff.

Employee was rude,not willing to check me in and not very nice at all. She is trying to charge me for fuel even though there was a note in my contract not to be charged because my original drop off point is out of business.

The location isn't the best - there is not an easy egress to the yard so I could see an extra employee to handle the yard work while the other mans the office. It would make wait times shorter.

Overall experience was ok. I was charged $25 on my receipt for not folding the furniture pads back like i received them. The attendant when she called said it said to fold them back on the plastic bag they came in and also on a sticker in the back of the truck. Checking in is all on your phone now and i did not even see anyone when i dropped the truck off--if the customer service was still there i would have gladly folded the pads back but again no one was in sight with the customer service to mention that to me. The pads were not dirty and i think this is just another way for a company to make more money at the customers expense.

Lakaia was very helpful and was excellent with customer service. The only thing I would change is that customers are notified if a gate being broken which delayed the process and lenght to walk. Also, not given a free month as it is advertised if you rent a truck and I paid $10 more than the posted price. I don't trust the online website now when in the stores there are cheaper prices and the free first month.

Equipment was not checked when turned in I'm going to say for the last few rentals. The wipers were torn about 50% and would not safely clear the windshield. I had to stop at a truck stop at around midnight to correct the overlook items while not able to see out of the windshield safely

Customer Service Rep Aresha was so engaging and polite! Great customer service ??

Bill M. | First Impressions |

Aretha is the bomb! She excels in the definition of what customer service should be about. Her warm smile, enthusiasm, electric personality, & overall knowledge made our experience a wonderful one. So seldom in today’s society do we experience the love that Aretha showed towards us, her customer. I’m looking forward to our return visit in a couple weeks. I don’t what her compensation is but it’s probable not enough! This is the best experience I have ever had at a U-Haul or any other place of a customer service type business. I think U-Haul corporate should tap into her knowledge and personality to travel and help train & educate their corporate workforce. It would be money well spent. -Bill McBrayer

This was our first experience with uHaul and it was wonderful. I would recommend this particular location because it was a great location and the staff was outstanding. Aresha was wonderful. She is definitely a an asset to this company. Her knowledge and professionalism with everything was such a added relief to us with this being our first time dealing with hauling a utility trailer. She made the process very easy and made us feel very comfortable. We will definitely be back whenever we need to haul or move anything!

Aresha went above and beyond to help me every time I had an issue!!! She is knowledgeable, patient, and extremely calm, no matter how busy they are. Everyone there is great, but she is top notch! Storage areas always smelled as if they were just cleaned/mopped. I always felt safe going in there alone!! IF i ever need storage again, I will definitely be back. Downtown U-Haul and storage by LR is definitely THE BEST! Thank you all for everything!!!!

UHaul of Downtown Hickory exceeded my expectations. I had no problems at all there. The first time I stopped by to finalize my reservation during my initial move, the staff was friendly and helpful, and even called later to make sure I made it OK to my final destination an hour away in the mountains. The facility looked very clean every time I went there to drop off or pick up a few items for the months my items were in storage. The staff was helpful when I forgot how to use my access card between trips. The move-out process was easy and the staff was helpful. I haven't unpacked any of the boxes yet since I just picked them up yesterday, but during the move-out process, I didn't see any damage to the furniture or boxes I had stored. (That had been a concern after reading reviews of various storage places when I was originally looking for a storage facility.)
