I have no notes. The trailer rental was extremely straight forward, low stress and very affordable. Next time I need to move my motorcycle long distance I'll be renting again without hesitation.
Adam WaitoGood service. Easy and fast to rent
Patricia estebanAbsolutly nothing Michelle and her team were fantastic everything went smoothly they were ready for me when I arrived. It could not have been a more perfect experience. More company's should take a lesson from U Haul kind regards Kim
kim manosTruck that was provided needs immediate attention. Took it on the highway and had to get off as the front end was bouncing and shaking. Fortunately I did not have to go very far, I believe approximately 20 - 25 miles. Please have this taken care of immediately.
Gilbert gaspiniMay be you need to digitalize the fuel consumption gauge and the odometer
Olalekan OloyedeThe staff here was very helpful.
VEERASEKHAR RAO MUTTINENII rented a pickup truck on Feb 17th and I stupidly filled the gas tank ($100 worth) and i only needed to bring it back 1/4 full and it was actually less than that when I returned it. In my defense, I'm a senior and certainly unaware of how much gas a truck would use. When I returned the truck, I was told I could get a refund for the excess gas up to $50 so I thought that was fair. then I was told I had to contact the GM of the location (Michelle) whom I tried to contact for 2 weeks to discuss the situation and I was never able to catch up to her...she was not in or out on lunch, etc. Not sure why if a refund up to $50 is available that the staff I was able to discuss this with are unable to do that refund!
Marjorie KallionGreat job! We rented a cargo van twice because everything was excellent. You made it easy, your place is spotless as were the vans. Those vans are a pleasure to drive.
James DuncanGreat! So rare in the time in which we are living to find terrific people !
kent cummings | First ImpressionsTruck dirty and too far from my house
Alexander KeenEverything was fast, easy and efficient. Service was friendly and helpful.

Chris HokanssonVehicle wea GREAT!
Henry UlozasManager never seemed to be onsite, lack of following proper procedures . Staff never had things ready on time and they were always confused on what needed to be done
Taimur Channa | Overall ExperienceI was assigned a 20FT van as requested, but I received it with a leaking rear driver's side tire that visibly got lower by the time we loaded to leave the next morning. They knew it was leaking because they topped it up as I picked it up. I also had a low fuel warning light as soon as I pulled out of the lot. Moving is stressful enough, than adding a leaking tire on top, not great. When I received the truck it was reasonably clean, except for some muddy foot prints on the driver's side. I dropped the van off to our final destination point, now I find out my credit card was charged $40 for a cleaning charge. Not very customer friendly that's for sure. I hate complaining, usually turn the other cheek, not this time sorry
pierre caruanaBox trailer was filthy with mud and oil. I was moving mattresses and a clean truck would have been nice or at least offer cardboard to lay on the floor of the trailer. Also all sizes of the trailers available would be appreciated on the website, as the size I needed was never shown. Luckily your location carried a few and not far from the original pick up location that I originally ordered from.
Jacqueline SousaUnfortunately, had to push hard for extra effort to obtain missing part when informed just 2 hours before scheduled installation appointment. The UHAUL staff did find the part nearby - Mississauga UHAUL branch - and installation completed in 5 hours - a bit too long when originally advised some 3+ hours.
Prabir DuttNothing but a great experience for the service I had received ATH Uhal! Keep it up!
Steve KellyThe lady at the desk was very unfriendly. Told me she couldn't help me and I needed to call someone else. I was taken back. After numerous attempts trying to get thru to the lines a gentleman was kind enough to help and all was resolved at 3:45 this afternoon.
Carmela LupoDropped it during closing hrs
Bharath Bhushan MedhimalThe truck was filthy, brake system and tire needed servicing , traction control , all the lights were on for Servicing.
teresa robinsonRachets are stiff but did the job
paul moschellaThere two staff working. A man and a woman. The woman (who told me on the phone that I had to be there 30 min before office hours ended) handled my paperwork and it look less than five min. After telling her that I’ve never rented a storage unit before, she told me what my passcode was and sent me on my way. Told me there was an elevator right as you walk in and that I was easy to find. I then tried to access the facility with my passcode with no success. After multiple failed attempts, I went back in and asked for help. The man came to help and he explained that I needed to put my passcode in two different things in a specific order, before I could enter. Then I entered the facility and walked around for a while looking for an elevator and couldn’t find it. I checked the map, and the elevator seemed to be in a different part of the building and on the opposite end. We then had to ask the man for help again and he was patient with us as he told us that we needed to drive the Uhaul truck around the building to the other side to access this area and my unit. In conclusion, the man was very helpful after the woman did very little to explain anything to me. It was a long day moving and at least half the staff was willing to help.
Phil Wood | First ImpressionsWould’ve been nice for someone to show me how to use the access codes, when & where.
Ellen Ocran | Online Move InProvide final documentation and run through of final changes before leaving premises. A clear statement of fees and check out process to be provided.
Ketan GhelaniVehicles need to be serviced ….truck really chugged
Douglas G WittmanThe only problem I had was the app’s offer of a rent free month if you rent a truck wasn’t being honoured. At the location they said they’ve had that problem before. U Haul corporate should fix that issue. Either don’t offer it, or honour it. Otherwise it could be regarded as false advertisement
Miguel Pittier | First ImpressionsFast and friendly service as always. Everyone was great.
Paul SamborskiGood people
bhagwant TiwanaPublic toilet was messy and no toilet paper all day, I was there at 10 am on Dec 2, 2023 until 10pm and the whole day the waSHROOM WAS NOT CHECKED, I INFORMED THE FRONT DESK WHEN I LEFT.
Lorna Noseworthy | First ImpressionsDid not receive the equipment I paid for. Made my move incredibly inconvenient
Abdul MoizGenerally a very positive experience, however, I was called the day after I returned the trailer to be told I was overdue. I had already returned the trailer to a representative so I shouldn't have been called.
Robert MehlerThey dont answer the phone.. called for an hr ... Absolutely no customer service skills...
Manny BellaThe only complaint was that the radio did not work. I believe the fuse to it was blown because it would not turn on.
Ruben FurtadoTruck had tranny problems as well as loose gear shift but overall made my move successful
Dave CollinsHire more staff.
RAMI AJAYII ended up returning the truck one day earlier and I was told that this would give me a corresponding discount. I did not see that on my VISA bill. You owe me there too. Honestly, this whole experience was quite disappointing. Clearly, what your staff promises is not followed up by actions: not in the reservation pick-up location, not in the trouble-shooting, not in the discount for my trouble, and not in the reimbursement for early an return. Feel free to contact me to make it up, somehow. Meanwhile, consider me unimpressed.
Marc NantelDropped off after closing
Robert Olmsteadthe online check in does not work. it was asking for location and i was in the right place but it kept telling me i was at the wrong location. luckily i am a critical thinker and realized it was a glitch in software. others would be thoroughly confused by this i’m sure.
Carlo TriassiI understand trucks are well used, but my particular truck felt unsafe and hard to operate. Shifter did not select gear properly, steering was vague, wooden skid left in the back of the car. The girl in the morning was adorable and would return due to her service.
Steve DeliaGreat team to deal with, the guys where friendly and professional
Robert FletcherI had to go more than 40 kms far and the truck I booked was not available because of the store mistake.
VasuDeepock GargSinglaAlthough there were no other customers there when I picked the trailer up, it took a very long time for the employee to meet me in the yard and hook the trailer up. After waiting some time, I rang the bell, knocked on the door and eventually went back into the store to ask for assistance. It all seemed a bit disorganized.
John MironEveryone was very helpful and friendly. Pick up and drop off were quick and smooth. Great job.
Tony MicudaNothing. Keep it the way it is. Was easy communicating and pleasant transaction. Definitely coming back here.
Marvin MoralesIt is a good place to store your things. However, it might consider to reduce the prices.
DAVID NAVARRO GOMEZ | Overall ExperienceWhen you promise a vehicle to a customer and I say I'm going to be there within an hour to pick it up, MAKE SURE THE VEHICLE IS THERE! This is what I was told "well if someone comes in after you reserve it, its first come fist serve basis." Me: "So if I call you to reserve a truck and then on my way someone walks in the door 2 minutes after I call, you will rent it to them?" Her answer: Yes. WHAT GOOD IS A RESERVATION IF YOU RENT THE TRUCK OUT FROM UNDER ME??????????? Absolutely horrid experience. Lied to and had to go to another location because of incompetency. This is why everyone hates U-haul.
Kellan David AdamsonOf course the person reading this has no decision making power no need to go further.
James NdichuI originally ordered the truck online a few days prior, to be picked up in Milton and dropped off In Brantford. Instead they called me less than 24 hours before my pick up and told me that they had no trucks available.The only option they gave me was to pick up a truck in Oakville but I had to return it to Oakville. They adjusted the rate but on top of the 1.5 hours of extra driving I had to do with the truck it costed more then when I originally booked it!
KEVIN KNOBLAUCHPrices are not transparent, and the place to change car keys is hard to find and the signs are unclear.
Haifeng BaoVery friendly and curtious employees that looked after everything that I needed
michael muscatKeep up the good work people should use your faculty it’s clean , safe and amazing customer service lot of options to choose according to your budget and need thank you so much for making my move so smooth , I feel so relaxed and safe keeping my stuff in your facility thank you again …
Anita Trikha | First ImpressionsStaff member was utterly useless. More interested in her phone than helping me. After I rented my unit she just handed me a map and didn't even circle the location. She should have also directed me to the location. Didn't care. She also should have gone over the sign in and signed out instructions as well. I ended up setting off the alarm. On a positive note the storage facility was clean, well lit and I was impressed with the check in/check out feature once I figured that out.
Dieter Kohlmaier | First ImpressionsThe staff was very pleasent and professional as well they provided a better alternative with the truck rental since I have a time sensitive matter that needed a truck asap and at first I reserve a 10" truck but it was only available for 12 hours which they suggest to get a 15" truck which was available and could have the 24 hours rental time which was great for me as well it had the built in ramp too so made moving my stuff much easier and didn't have to rush bc had the extra time. As well I was able to get the one month of free storage since I rented the truck so very happy about that and would highly recommend Uhaul!!
Airina Barry | Online Move InI was in a desperate situation; after driving 20 hrs, I finally arrived the U-Haul location in Oakville, there were 3 guys and they all said that nobody is going to unload my car from the trailer. A person loaded my car to trailer in Alabama without any hesitate. Also, It was a big frustration for me that, on top of all the tiredness, no one tried to help and acted indifferently, as if they were trying to get rid of it. You guys have to change your attitude!
Basak Avci | First ImpressionsEverything is excellent no complaints.
zia ullah | Overall ExperienceThe staff was great, friendly and very helpfull!
Ian Borrell | Overall ExperienceVery good customer service!!!! Everything is excellent Thank you guys you are Amazing!
dragan milutinovic | Overall ExperienceRefund policy is well received.
John Cviljak | First ImpressionsVery disappointed as I reserved the truck for 2 weeks and was told otherwise.
Niranjan Balasubramaniam | Overall ExperienceMichelle is an excellent manager. This location is top quality.
John Cviljak | Overall ExperienceIf the rent was not so high I would have kept it. Maybe offer a package for long term renters for a deep discount? Remember, the most expensive storage unit is an empty one!
ROGERTODD BROPHY | Overall ExperienceThe after hours to access storage is very difficult. The front counter guy gave us instructions on how to enter after hours but was unsuccessfully and a waste of our time and gas. Also, getting a hold of someone at this location is unheard of. It is done thru a call centre (remotely). Leaving a message to Call Centre to get this location to return my phone call was unsuccessfully as well. Newly renovated storage facility at this location was very clean and secured.
moukda wallet | Overall ExperienceOriginal person I dealt with was very helpful and knowledgeable. The day I went in to arrange the unit the person in the rental office was not overly familiar with the storage rental process. The process ended up taking an hour which included several phone calls to a supervisor. Actual sign in and out procedures for unit were not fully explained - was not told that we needed to sign out on the keypad after leaving. Got it done in the end. Unit is perfect. Just recommend that experienced staff should be available. Felt quite sorry for the gentleman in line behind me as no one else was available to help him.
margaret byrne | First ImpressionsVery nice and clean place The staff are amazing The price for the storage and the track are very good compared with other companis
dragan milutinovic | First ImpressionsNice Clean facility, Friendly/helpful Staff. Highly recommend.
Sabeeh Sadeeq | First ImpressionsLack of experience from staff regarding accounts and payments. I was paying for storage unit and ubox at the same time! for many months! Even after confirming and reconfirming that UBOX account was closed, yet I found out it was still an active account and that I am paying for a service that I don’t have and stopped for many months
ashraf daoud | Overall ExperienceThe people in the U-Haul at Oakville they are the best people, friendly, accommodating and respect on top of this the manager Michelle is so much cooperative
Nabeel Tariq | First ImpressionsBeautiful building ad well-lit and extremely clean facility and top notch customer service.
Clint Pacheco | Overall ExperienceAll good, no issues
W Stephen Turner | Overall ExperienceExcellent service. Very clean. Excellent facility and value.
Don Dinnin | First ImpressionsEverything was above expectations. Site manager is professional and courteous.great experience
Claude M Gauthier | Overall Experience24 hours didn’t work and had to complain multiple times. When it did work cops called on me for be at my own storage unit. Michelle Spelic has poor customer service skills.
Chad Hutchinson | Overall ExperienceUnit was not well lit and the door lock had issues that were never resolved Arjun was especially helpful
Richard Lloyd | Overall ExperienceMr Silece was a very friendly and easy to communicate with. Very very polite and respectful person.

Angelica Fittinghoff | Online Move InThe best uhaul by far! Cleanest facility and most helpful staff! Recommend to everyone!
Jack Mills | First ImpressionsThe only issue I had was that I had reserved a 10x10 unit, which was not available on the day I arrived to unload the truck, I was given 2 smaller units and then a month later had to move everything into a 10x10 unit. I did receive help from your staff and was compensated for 1 month of payment.
Melanie Silver | Overall ExperienceSuper clean and everything worked well
Claude M Gauthier | First ImpressionsNo issues, close to home and very helpful staff,
W Stephen Turner | First ImpressionsStaff excellent!
LIZ CAPRON | Overall ExperienceThanks for the help
MATTHEWJ SPEECE | First ImpressionsAAA service and facilities
Daoud Abboud | Overall ExperienceCheck in was excellent, but lack of communication and follow up when canceling storage unit was beyond poor. I still have yet to recieve any type of confirmation email that is been canceled. They verified my email and it is correct. Several emails went unresponded to and after over a week of radio silence, I had to call them to get the cancellation processed before they charged my card.
HARMONY FITZSIMONS | Overall ExperienceI have had issues with this facility from the time I moved in up until September 30th, when a woman named, Elizabeth resolved it. Only took 12 agents to get this sorted. Won't recommend this storage to anyone. Thanks.
Marsha D'souza | Overall ExperienceThe company is unorganized, no idea what they are doing. Wanted us from the 26 feet truck to move in the 10x10, and do stairs. After we went to other place why are yiu asking are we satisfied? We are not there.
Zoltan Duda | First ImpressionsStaff was very helpful and knowledgeable of their products & services.
RAJDEEPSINGH SANDHU | Overall ExperienceU haul staffs are super friendly and helpful
moudood mohamed | Overall ExperienceThe process was easy and met all my needs quick
Robert Raike | First ImpressionsI made an online reservation for a 5x5 storage space at 79.95 CAD . when I arrived there, the staff told me that it's on second floor and I asked to see elevator and troy are available or not and he said, yes. Therefore I confirmed that it's okay for me . he said that also one space available at ground floor and changed my reservation to that. till now everything is okay but at the end I found that the rent of this pace is higher than second floor and he didn't mention anything about it. I know that it's just $5 and not a big money but exactly I chosen that warehouse and location based on the price. anyway, I realized this price different after I already dropped my items at the storage space and I was lazy to ask them to change my contract again to second floor and I move again all items to second floor.
Babak Bahizad | First ImpressionsI loved the facility and the team. I only left because I moved...
Anthony Dirracolo | Overall ExperienceIt was very inconvenient, it was my first time and I had a difficult time since the first storage that was given to me was very small and we were stranded there for a good 45mins. Since it was 4mins past office hrs with no one answering the service line. At one point we called the # and someone hung up. Finally Michelle gave us another unit, she was pretty helpful but the night experience was horrible.
Marsha D'souza | Online Move InBeing charged rent when I moved out before my due date. Uhaul phone services are crap
Daniel Lee | Overall ExperienceIt was awesome!
David Navarro | First ImpressionsThe man who helped me obtain a locker was VERY helpful and nice, I am so sorry I forget his name, though I hope you probably have that information on your end. His customer service was great! Laura
Laura Rogers | First ImpressionsThe staff were Awesome and the facility was very well maintained and clean.
Clifton Johnston | First ImpressionsGreat staff, good manager, a paradigm shift in service compared to the Brampton facility or the Royal Windsor facility in Oakville.
KELLYP WASH | Overall ExperienceWhat more could you ask for - a safe, secure, clean and easily accessible environment.
George Semeczko | Overall ExperienceAmazing Staff Thank you
Keith OUTRAM | Overall ExperienceThis location is a top quality storage facility. Additional restrooms are very convenient. My compliments to Michelle.
John Cviljak | Overall Experiencefacility was very clean driveway parking lot ramp steps clear of snow and ice ( Oakville had a lot of snow and weather causing icy conditions this year compared to other years) parking available close to the entrance staff on site could be easily accessed by phone if I had any questions re site access billing etc
keith higgins | Overall ExperienceThe only issue with the facility is the entry. It is hard to access the entry with vehicles parked in the entrance. Also the walkway is bumpy and small making it difficult to use a cart of any kind.
Julia Anderson | Overall ExperienceMichelle Spelic is a gem, her knowledge and professionalism is not only appreciated by us, but to all and Michelle helped us to secure a larger unit to accommodate our new appliances (still in crates). Michelle then followed up to close out our previous storage unit after moving right across the hall! Brilliant!
Terry Johnson | First ImpressionsConvenient. Staffs are helpful.
BENJAMIN GONZALES | Overall ExperienceWe tried to access the unit between 5 to 6 PM and the office was shut because it was a Sunday. But the door would not accept the code and I called 1800 number which didn’t help at all. They said the manager at the site needs to be talked to. I had to cancel my plans and then come back the next day sacrificing my sleep and spend 4 hours to pickup and transport the items in my unit and then go for a 10 hour night shift at work. When i raised the issue with the employee and the manager they said they will have to talk to IT to look at the door issue. Not even an apology.
AJAY THOMAS | Overall ExperienceGreat people in Oakville! Ignorant people running the Brampton facility. I go 30 minutes out of my way to see the Oakville staff!
KELLYP WASH | First ImpressionsMy move-out request was acknowledged but not effected. This led to erroneous charges on my account. But when i complained, it was corrected.
Chinedu Ezomike | Overall ExperienceStaff were always helpful & courteous. Storage unit we had was well situated to the side exit for easy access. Unit and facilities had good lighting & kept clean
Danilo Yatco | Overall ExperienceThe people were polite. The girl who showed me my room realized it wasn’t clean already so immediately mopped it. But the service experience as a whole was absolutely horrible. We reserved the space and truck. Called to confirm everything was good the day before. Was thanked for confirming. Then. Arrived to be good our space was rented out. Apparently the reservation means absolutely nothing!! It as very upsetting. I had to move my mother in that one day and had done all the work to prepare only to be told that reserved means nothing to anyone at uhaul. The girl apologized that this is the policy. Offered to call another location. But we picked that location for a reason. It was very stressful for my senior mom. We ended up in a much more expensive space just to spent through everything. I’ll not recommend uhaul for reliable service/policy. Still angry over the whole thing!
Stewart Pollock | First ImpressionsRented me 2 Trucks low on fuel. Had to fuel up midway through a move with a truck full of belongings, no truck availability, also rented me another cargo van with a flat tire, had I not noticed I could have been in serious danger on the highway driving. Do better. Hoping to receive some sort of discount. Manager Michelle was friendly but she needs to have her people keep an eye on the trucks wayyyyy more.
Anthony Salci | First ImpressionsExceptional service and friendly, efficient staff.
GURPREET SINGH | First ImpressionsPeople make the difference. The U-Haul people in Oakville have excellent customer service skills and are obviously well trained. You can always sweep a floor but it’s very difficult to change a person’s attitude. Oakville’s floors shine and the people are polished. Well done U-Haul.
Clifford Dell | Overall ExperienceStaff were professional and kind.
Sharron Roberts | Overall ExperienceAs usual; Great service and staff
Charles Hottelet | Overall ExperienceAll would have been 5 stars, other than access hours . This is a newer facility and access to storage is limited to office hours . Kept items in storage for aprox 7 months and several times would have liked to be able access at later hours .
Petru Anastase | Overall ExperienceNot so keen on the ramp.
RAVINA MENDIRATTA | Overall ExperienceStaff very friendly Discussed how best to use the features and equipment on site to move in Facility very clean well lite Very good at checking the van tire sensor issue while we moved in Would definitely recommend this facility to friends
keith higgins | First ImpressionsAmazing team
mario perez | First ImpressionsAmazing customer service
mario perez | Overall ExperienceFriendly and helpful staff. Excellent facilities, clean, in good condition and well located. I will surely recommend them.
Cesar Lampo | First ImpressionsVery helpful and friendly staff . Great facility with indoor loading ramp. Great for winter .
Darryl Coombs | Overall ExperienceFriendly and professional customer service. Facility is very clean.
Dina Ghaly | First ImpressionsIncredibly well organised branch, everything is automated and simple to navigate. 100% top business! Oh yes & 30 days free storage!
sean marshall | First ImpressionsVery friendly staff.
John Cviljak | First ImpressionsThank you !!!
Hea-Sun Kwak | Overall ExperienceService was friendly and efficient - even on labour day weekend when they were mobbed with people needing equipment.
Debbie McCue | First ImpressionsCombining UHaul and MovingHelp.com saved us over $3,000 compared to the lowest quote for a one-way move from Montreal (Laval) to Toronto (Oakville). Everything went smoothly, on time and no damages.
David Saucier | Overall ExperienceI would recommend this U-haul to everybody. Any employee I have dealt with have been simply amazing. Very helpfull, they did their best to satisfy any of my demands. 5/5 stars with no hesitation.
