Customer Reviews for U-Haul Storage Of North Seattle

Rating:

The woman at the counter was Excellent. The website has some problems. It showed the store opening at 6 AM and no pickups available but the store opened at 7 AM and there was a pickup. The website is also irritating if all you want to do is rent a truck and not buy all sorts of stuff and get conned into roadside assistance. The man that checked the truck back in was a bit off. Instead of just looking for damage and noting mileage and gas, he walked around the truck beating the tires with a stick; asked me to operate the brake and turn signals and spent the longest time looking at gauges and pretending to study them.

We were charged a nearly 90$ fee out of nowhere. When I called this location the lady who answered the phone immediately became accusatory saying that there were cigarette butts left in the vehicle. This made me think of the lighter we found left in the vehicle upon arrival. That being said I thoroughly checked the vehicle before locking it up and made sure that it was free of garbage, even removing the items that were not mine just to avoid being blamed for anything. I told her that I do not smoke and no one that helped me move were smokers. There were at least five people as witness that no cigarettes were taken near this vehicle. She then changed her story that there were ashes on the floorboards and it smelled like smoke. I explained the state that the truck was in when I picked it up and how it looked like no one had checked on it between families but she stayed adamant that I was at fault for this. She said that I needed to report this when I entered the vehicle but the gas station attendant didn’t seem to be the person in charge of cleaning the vehicle and nowhere on the website did it prompt me for pictures of the interior so I was at a loss for what to do in this situation. Seeing that this conversation was going nowhere I decided to end the call. I will not be returning to use Uhaul services if I am going to be blamed for the company’s lack of attention to their own products and services. This seemed like a quick way to charge people in an already vulnerable situation. I will not be recommending uhaul to anyone going forward

The staff was great. The vehicle was great although it took me a minute to figure out the electronics. And it was very affordable. It was a short but critical rental and the easy rental really helped.

Snafu at pickup. I had accepted an offer that disappeared during pickup. Ground agent remidied. Fix your IT systems

I ended up doing most of the work packing, and coordinating. The movers could have brought two pods but they only had one when they arrived, and then wasted two hours getting the second one and bringing it back. Meanwhile , they left numerous boxes in the lobby of my condo complex while I was waiting for them to return. Then, worst of all, they couldn't fit all my items in the second pod. So I had a bike, a vase, a small step ladder a vacuum cleaner and a box of expensive dress shirts held back. It seems to me that had they packed things correctly, they would have had enough room. Now I cancelled my flight to my new residence and instead, am renting a car so I can bring the remaining items with me.

When I was returning the vehicle I was directed to park in a line of trucks. After parking nobody came to check me out, I went inside and they told me to go back out and wait for someone to come over. While wating they were assisting other customers that had pulled in after me. I was sitting there for 30 minutes waiting and watching other vehicles get checked in before me. The staff seems to have a non-chalant attitude not really interested in helping customers. Poor customer service!

It takes too long to pick up a reserved equipment and there is not enough staff on-site to help customers with any support they need with the equipment.

When I returned the truck, I was asked to assist the rep checking the truck in, (first time ever requested), to check brake lights, turn signals, headlights, etc. Have always known it to be done by staff, (there were plenty on hand at time of return)…the key in the lock box was jammed a bit, got it out after poking around in the lock box a bit…the truck drove, worked really well, app was easy to use…I would rent from this location again…

Completely rushed check out, changed reservation name without telling me, tried calling and he kept trying to end the call saying he’d see me when I get there. made us pay with a different card even though I had one on file that I told them to use. Totally screwed over my partner who was picking it up for us, and there was nothing they could/would do about it, extremely disappointing

They were great and flexible with different people (an authorized user and the appt scheduler) doing pick up and check out, able to change card easily!

Pricing was ridiculous, I agreed to a price that included miles, then it expired and I was forced to pay for every mile, costing me over $1,000 when including the price of fuel. Steering wheel wasn't centered, brakes are mushy, fuel economy was atrocious, less than 8 miles per gallon when empty.

THe local scheduler changed my drop off location to about 45 mionutes away and I had to argue with him to get the closer one back

Very chaotic during pick up. Felt rushed to get pictures and then app wouldn’t work. Small parking lot and difficult to maneuver as other vehicles are also getting hooked up.

Waited in line for a really long time. When using the app it advertises speedy check out. Nope. You still have to wait in line to talk to someone to get you the keys even when it says go to the counter, they tell you to wait cause they're with a customer. When i returned the truck, the guy who was helping me was in a bad mood and said "my manager is being a B". So this location has issues.

Would recommend with hesitation - the computers were down at our location so they were doing their best. However, it took the staff a while to tell people to do the mobile check in. Since the computers were down, my authorized drivers did not sync up with the system at the store, so we had to re-enroll them both. When returning the truck, Joel was kind to work with and made the return process easy!

Absolutely terrible experience. $91 for 3 hours of pickup truck "rental". When I booked the reservation, I thought I would have the truck for the day. "$19.95 per day" - B.S. They only had 2 people inside helping customers and a line out the door. I had to wait over 1/2 an hour just to get my truck. Then they said I could only have the truck until 2pm, WTF? Then they made me take pictures and upload them U-Haul's website to show the condition of the truck,. First set of pics uploading failed and I had to restart the process. Another 1/2 hour wasted and I hadn't even gotten off the lot. The truck was dented six ways from Sunday and dirty when I picked it up. They had the nerve to tack on a $25 cleaning fee in the end! What a waste of time & money! Once we returned the truck we tried to talk to the manager, she just said we could rent another vehicle for full price, no breaks, no discounts, no empathy. Just, go pound sand, in other words. Do yourself a favor and rent a vehicle elsewhere! Never again! Would give 0 stars if it were an option.

When you cal in to booked an appt on line it's doesn't work. This is very frustrating and then you called in and you are put on hold and staff never comes back. Therefore, you have to wait in line and go through the application process all over again.Time I cannot get back!. Thanks for letting me vent!

I was greeted by a friendly young lady nearly immediately upon driving in to the location. She was very friendly and personable, yet also professional. It took me less than five minutes to complete my transaction, after verifying everything was good with the truck/mileage/etc. Thank you for excellent customer service!

The truck smelled terribly of cigarette smoke. Staff went out of their way to try and help, even using a citrus spray/deodorizer to no avail. The smell got even worse when trying to use the a/c, which was doubly frustrating as we were driving in mid-day sun. The location is great; I continue to have excellent customer service from the Aurora staff, but the equipment was sub standard.

First, the drop-off location on the contract would not accept the truck and directed me to this location. When I arrived the outside person said to talk to someone inside. The inside person said to talk to someone outside. She finally agreed to help me but then asked me to stay around and help her check the operating condition of all the truck lights (headlights, turn indicators, brake lights). I paid a lot to rent this truck and didn’t want to have to do the work of the staff to prepare the truck for the next customer.

Whatever you do, don’t work with an ass-wipe named Jackson. He is an arrogant, no-nothing piece of crap that should be washing trucks instead of dealing with the public! You don’t talk to people like you talked to me and not feel the repercussions!! I’ll never ever be back to this location.

This guy has a bad attitude and is careless with his job, seemingly un interested in explaining anything. I felt like I was bothering him by patronizing this business. I normally don't put up with abusive men like this, but I drove 2 hours out of my way to get this trailer for a cross country move. This was the only location that had the auto transport, though I had a reservation that was local, my reservation was not honored. I had no choice but to take the abuse.

After driving about 60 miles, the gas gauge on the van we rented wasn't registering when we refilled. We put 8 gallons worth over $38 in it, which should have been twice as much as what was required since it gets 14-15 mpg. When we dropped off we had our receipt and tried to talk to someone about it since it was showing slightly lower than where we started. The system was down and they told us they would call us back. No one called but they charged us a gas fee. I called and asked to speak to the manager. She wouldn't speak to me but I could hear her telling the associate what to say. It's absolutely ridiculous that she wouldn't speak to me or try to work with me. I wasn't disputing that the gauge said it was lower than where we started but I had a receipt to prove that we bought more gas than we should have needed to. She seemed to have no problem ripping us and future customers off with this broken gauge.

After checking in, I was given keys to the wrong truck—the license plate didn’t match the reservation. I had to return to the desk and wait in a line behind four other groups to get the correct keys. Although several staff members recognized that we had already been helped and acknowledged there was an issue, no one expedited the process or offered assistance. Mistakes happen, and I understand that, but the original staff member who checked us in didn’t apologize or even acknowledge the mix-up. Additionally, we received the truck at 7/8 full, paid $32 for a full tank refill, and didn’t receive any reimbursement for the difference. The rental itself was fine, but the customer service left a lot to be desired.
