U-Haul Car Trailer Rental – Poor Service, Overpriced, and Frustrating I rented a car hauler trailer from U-Haul in Westminster, CA to tow a vehicle to Pennsylvania. While the actual towing went fine, everything else—from pick-up to drop-off—was a mess. At pick-up, the attendant helped hook up the trailer and checked the lights, saying they were good. But after taking the trailer to where the car was, about 15 miles, I noticed one taillight was completely dead—no brake, turn signal, or running light. I called U-Haul, and they sent me to another location for a fix. The car was already loaded so we drove to the Santa Ana location so they could fix the light. After driving there, I was told by that attendant he couldn’t fix it and had no parts. I had to unload the car, return the trailer, and get a refund. I called again to find another trailer along my route, and was told the only available one was back at the same location. Frustrated, I went back, picked up a different trailer, reloaded the car, and checked the lights again—they worked this time. But during our first stop, I decided to check the tire pressure and found none of the four tires were properly inflated. Not even close. To top it off, the price was outrageous. Honestly, I could have bought a brand-new trailer in California, towed it to Pennsylvania, sold it, and probably come out ahead. Bottom line: the equipment worked, eventually, but the service, support, and value were severely lacking. They like to use the phrase "The only one we have available" - I called three times in the span of a few hours and was told about three different trailers that were "The only one we have available". I expected better from a company like U-Haul. (and I would avoid the Westminster location, if possible, they seem angry just being there.)
