I was sent to this location as a back up. I showed up a couple minutes for my reservation time and the “boss” was not there to assist me at 8:30. He had to be called by an associate to come by to give me my rental. Then didn’t have all the furniture dollys I needed because the inventory was not matching whay he actually had. I was being charged for extra things than what was quoted to me by uhaul. A supervisor had to be called to adjust it. The whole process took 25-30 minutes on top of not being there on time. My recommendation would be to have everything together and make sure your inventory is completely correct before renting out to people. Some people are on a tight schedule and don’t have time to waste for someone not to have what they need or show up on time.

I pick this location due to proximity from my home. My son drove the truck home, because I needed to stay in Georgia a few days. Upon arriving he did as I instructed, park truck, inspect and loaded the Dolly in back of the truck, then go in and turn the truck in to the employee. He showed the employee where the truck was located and the the dolly was in the back. The man took the keys and said thank you, to which my son replied aren't you going to inspect the truck and verify the dolly? He then replied no, then my son ask for some type of receipt to show he returned the truck (a day early) to which he was informed that they don't give receipts. Upon asking a few more times was he sure he didn't want to inspect/verify the truck, he said no. So my son left without any proof of vehicle being turned in. At that point and time, I was left liable for anything that happened to the truck/dolly until the next day when checked in at 8:30 AM, because I had no proof that we had turned in the truck. It is a very poor run business that leaves their customers in this position. Will I use u-haul again, I, not sure, but I do know if I do, it won't be from this location.. I would like like to give a shout out to Crystal at the 1-800 Florida Customer Service Center who was polite, understanding and helpful in my predicament. Although the truck didn't checked in as soon as she said, I'm sure it wasn't because her end of things. James Nelson 813-476-4907

Be ready to honor reservations instead of being quick to dismiss customers reservations and needs under "not my problem". Also don't ask customers what they want the truck for, tell them to bring back the truck before the contracted time knowing there's a drop box or inflate milage especially when customers have been courteous, responsible, and timely.

I was charged for an extra two days AFTER the rental was returned. I have proof of the return. The location didn’t check the truck back in as returned and I haven’t gotten a response as to why from the location. Nor have I received a resolution from U-Haul regarding the situation. Have to call U-Haul customer service for a THIRD time to try and figure out what is going on. Extremely frustrated and angry I am being charged double what it was supposed to be due to others negligence and lack of doing their job appropriately.

They were rude, unprofessional, they talked a lot of “ trash” about how much they hated working with Uhaul, the dolly that I rented was In terrible conditions, nothing else but a terrible experience, they don’t deserve to have you as a business partner, that place is very unprofessional.

This location is rude. I had to stand in a convent store and give my personal information over a phone to a processing person . Anyone standing near me me got my card number and all details restated to it. This should be done in house at the register not over a phone call in a public place. It is not convenient for a convenient store . I should be able to charge and slide my card not announce it .

Ensure that you have employees who care about the safety of your customers. I was driving cross country and was given a truck with a bad battery and headlights that did not work. Unfortunately, I didn't know this until I was 365 miles into my trip with a vehicle that wouldn't start. I've received nothing but the run around when trying to reach the area field manager, John Palmisano. He closed my customer action file because I had not returned the truck. However, my contract allowed me to be in possession of the truck for another day. Besides if you have a customer who is in possession of a piece of equipment that has/had issues, wouldn't you call them back before they have to return it????

The person at Lithia Food Mart indicated that he had nothing to do with the truck return, just leave the key in the drop off box. I asked if someone was going to inspect the truck to verify that I filled the gas tank and safe return of the vehicle. He again stated he had nothing to do with this process. Unbelievable. I tried to contact John Palmisano but the call got transferred to the main customer service line. Your fees are fair, employees need to be retrained or instructed to work in a different job where customer contact does not exist.

I waited 2 hours after my requested time for pickup, because service representative was not at pick up location. According the gas station attendant, he left to attend a dental appointment. I waited 2 hours for rep to call me at that location to issue me the vehicle. I returned the vehicle in one day, and was charged for 2 days. I will use or recommend that location again. The worst customer service and professionalism I’ve ever experienced with uhaul.

I didn't get the truck until an hour and a half after my appointment pick up time. The previous renter didn't bring it back on time, while not the stores fault, they could have called and told me that before I showed up not to have a truck available.

My receipt says incorrect return time. I returned it at about 1030am, not 12pm. This was because my drop off location was changed without an email to let me know. So I was late dropping it off.

This guy expected me to do his job and check in the truck and park it across the busy highway and jaywalk back because his facility had no room for the uhaul with his gasoline customer traffic. Letring these types of places facilitate uhaul is ruining uhauls reputation.

The truck was old had a lot of miles on it. Also there was a lot of play in the steering and made a lot of strange noises as she drove. I notified the pick up location owner and he said he would take care of it and have it replaced. Very nice person very helpful
