Easy.
JOHN CEverything was top notch, friendly helpful staff, will use again.
JEFFREY SThe team is always friendly, and always has availability. Wish I could get reward points for a discount with how often I rent! Hook me up U-Haul!
CHARLES KThe trailer worked well and met my needs. The service I got when I ordered the trailer was exceptional. The only complaint I have is when I went to pick up the trailer the Sunday staff was not trained well enough to process me. After spending about 15 minutes waiting for the one person that knew how to do the task I finally got the rental information processed and the trailer hooked to my vehicle. The employee that did assist me was very knowledgeable about how to do the rental and trailer hook up processes, but was hard to understand and not very customer service oriented.
ARTHUR WAgent sent me out her door with the key to locate the rented truck. Piss poor lack of manners!
Michael SNothing. Good job to the staff. Thanks for making check in / checkout quick and easy.
PETER RJoy was especially helpful in explaining everything. With patient good humor! The truck's headlights were badly misaligned so that the low beams shined just in front of the bumper. Scary on the freeway as it got dark. The high beam setting shined where the lows are supposed to, and we got home safely. Joy was going to make sure that was corrected.
SARA MReally bad customer service,, they made no effort at all to be helpful or explain anything. The truck was ok and I was able to move what I needed to and returned truck within 24 hours. Still waiting for a final invoice so I don't know the final charge.
SARAH PDon't manipulate the fuel gauge reading. It's a pathetic way to try to make $10. Grow up
GABRIEL CBest U-Haul rental experience I’ve had in thirty years
ERIN NI was glad to have the truck warmed up and the windows were already defrosted. I would have liked to be reassured verbally that the mileage and the gas tank were recorded before we left. I did find it on my email.
DOMENIK DThe employee barely talked ti me and just pointed out the truck I rented. He did not complete a check out process and the truck was in so tight I had to duck to get under the mirrors. I figured out the app for check out the truck on my own.
LAURA EGreat customer services friendly and happy.
BRIAN KWhile the attendant was helpful in getting us on our way he was very difficult to communicate with in English.
JAMES ZMuch more expensive than other local U-Haul dealers and tank was at 1/8th of a tank when I picked it up. Gas price of the station of the dealer is 50 cents higher than Safeway 2 blocks away. Clearly a rouge to make you buy expensive gas. I won't rent from here again, will go North Kitsap Storage where none of these issues have happened before.
Russell JThe location is excellent. Some staff are more helpful than others.
JESSIE Acould not of gone better, thanks
JAY MDifficulty communicating with staff. No walk around & no fuel check. It's important to comprehend rules. I am so grateful that I had spoken directly with uhaul. That explained and fielded questions.
BARBARA PI reserved one unit and then changed my mind at the store -- they accommodated my request without delay. I dropped it off a day early, and they processed the refund quickly. It is a good operation. I have rented there four times now.
JOHN KBarely spoke English and didn’t do a check in.
CODY WThey had a week to get me the bigger truck I asked for. And oly gave me the 10 ft truck took 2 loads instead of one that cost more because of miles.
TODD GThe guy working the counter was rude and inconsiderate. Will not be using your company again
RYAN DEngine light on, fuel cap warning, front end sloppy and hard to drive Indifferent clerk
SCOTT FLocation is unclean and disorganized inside and out. Would need give any proof of equipment drop off when requested. This is a risk to the customer.
ERIC CLocation is not clean. Worker was unwilling to provide any paperwork proof that the two rental units were dropped off to the location. Unacceptable.
Eric CVery friendly, welcoming and great service!
MATTHEW CWonderful rental experience with the very kind woman who has worked there many years. I look forward to going back soon!
STEVEN BWhy have reservations if you don't honor them for the location reserved? We are moving, and in a time crunch. We reserved two trucks near us 3 weeks in advance, and arranged to have many people come help us load our piano and household goods at a particular time. The day before we get a call that the trucks are not available at our location. We need to drive an hour away at least to pick up the trucks! That is two extra hours of driving on the day we need to drive our household goods to our new location 12 hours away. Something wrong with this picture!!! We don't need that added stress of having to reschedule everything with so many people. Next time we will try another company who will honor their reservations.
MONTE MGreat service.
MARK WGreat job
WILLIAM CPlenty of space and delicious food inside!
John DStaff very efficient and supportive
GREGORY SThe truck functioned properly but there were several noises during operation that indicated it may need service.
STEVEN PThe employees helped me park the trailer, then said I was done and they'd check it in. The next day I almost got a late charge because it wasn't checked in yet.
Paula TI was thoroughly impressed with the level of service and attention provided by "Joy" at the Poulsbo location. Joy was very supportive in her demeanor while addressing my questions, to each of which she responded clearly. Joy explained each of the features and services availed by U-Haul. I'm grateful for her ability to weave me through myriad terms presented in the U-Haul platform.
Jack MJoy was very helpful and nice.
Anthony HI was not greeted. He stayed on the phone the whole time. He did not walk the truck with me or anything. He said " I will email you". Zero personality or customer service
Alison WHonestly my experience was ridiculous and the attendant tried to overcharge me
Jordan JBe more informative. I had to ask the questions instead of the checker just letting me know about renting the truck. The pricing, the gas replacement, I even took pictures of the truck in case there was a question about its condition. The vehicle was really dirty and the truck bed had rocks and tree bark in it. Inside the cab was dirty also. The person didn't go over anything with me. But because I have rented from U-Haul many times I knew what questions to ask. I was very displeased with the information I wasn't told. .
Liz LThe gentlemen running the station were fantastic, I have a hearing disability and they made sure I knew what they were saying. The truck was beautiful, a FORD!! and very new and clean. Gracias.
Shannon MI reserved the 10 foot truck 10 days out from need (2 day rental reserved at 19.95/day). When I arrived to pick up the truck I was told it was not available. They told me I could rent the 15 footer and would have to pay for the 15 foot size (29.00 versus 19.00 per day). I asked them what was the point of making a reservation? They told me it was the other customers fault and there was nothing they could do to help, even though I had reserved the 10 foot, 10 days earlier. I suggested they give me the 10 foot rate for the larger truck and they said they could not do that. They told me I had to call corporate. I did call corporate and they agreed with me and credited my account, though I think they only credited one day. The lower panel on the steering column (encasing emergency brake handle) fell off on to my legs while driving. Very unsafe! I understand that stuff happens, but in my experience that is part of doing business. I struggle to understand how myself, being unrelated to the other customer that did not fulfill their contract, should pay for the extra cost. Folks at this Haul location do not understand the concept of "customer service" and are representing Uhaul at an inferior level.
Doyle CI had scheduled to pickup at gig harbor but was told I had to pick up from Poulsbo. Friendly workers but had some difficulty in communication with language barriers.
Nina HVery good. Thank you.
Cody SThe site is difficult to maneuver a larger or longer vehicle in if there are fuel customers or fuel loading trucks present.
Nicholas LSweet. Super Sweet!
Jeremiah NThey were extremely helpful and exceptionally kind. I would use them again. Gracias
Leslee PNothing, everything went very smoothly without hassle.
Gretchen KNothing. This was any easy rental.
Donald WDrop off was very easy and accessible for 26ft truck. Also close to my final destination., which was the determining factor for choosing UHaul.
MARK SGracias
jeff uGreat customer service, she was wonderful and knowledgeable. Truck surprised me with gas mileage in a good way. Truck did everything I needed and didn't kill my bank.
Andrew HCheck air in right tire of trailer. Location was quick to process rental, hook up and go. The reservation helped.
Ronald LJoy was awesome to work with!
Patrick MTruck box was leaking and wet. Both interior corners and the front area over the cab were wet with standing water.. The floor was dirty with road grime from use (driving). I rented other trucks from your competitors which were never like this and driven them in the rain up the west coast without issue. This truck box needs to be sealed and steam cleaned at the very least.
Evan KDriver #1 Sunday 3/10 Pick up Uhaul 40 miles away from the originally scheduled location. This required 80 miles in gas for transport to and from Uhaul center, and 40 miles of gas in Uhaul truck to return to house. Originally scheduled location was within 6 miles from my house. The change was only notified to us 2 days prior in an email. When we called to ask about this we were told it was policy, and staff did not even look at a map, instead suggesting we pickup at a location that was even further away than that originally suggested and would only have been more efficient had we been able to drive across Port Orchard, a large body of water. Tank was ½ full. Monday 3/11 Drove approximately 150 miles from Bainbridge, WA to mile marker 137 on I90. Approximate time was 2pm, nothing around for miles. Called Uhaul roadside assistance and was told they would send someone to look at the truck, the engine of which had exploded and was emitting white smoke due to lack of maintenance on the vehicle. Engine was declared totally dead and the truck needed to be towed. We were told a hotel and meal would be provided to us (through Doordash credits or refund up to $50 per person). Hotel reservations were not made, food credits were not given. Someone also asked us if we needed any accommodations when the tow arrived, we requested water. We had been told that within 30 minutes someone would call us back to schedule a hotel for the night and confirm details. During this time we were also told that someone had marked our account as call only, which we had not requested. No call was received, instead we were sent text messages telling us that accommodation would not be made until we were en-route to a hotel. The destination was scheduled to be an hour north of our route, completely out of our way. During the 7 hours we sat on the side of the road we were told multiple contradicting things regarding the process and what we could expect. At one point I asked to speak to a manager and was ignored, being told that someone would help me when they were available, later in the evening it was clearly said to me that this was inappropriate and I should have been contacted by management within 30 minutes of making the request. Instead I was sent a passive aggressive message with a smiley face and ignored. At approximately 9pm tow arrived, and was surprised that Uhaul had not relayed to them that the truck was not abandoned and was on the side of the highway, stating that if he had been told so he would have arrived much faster. This is a serious oversight by Uhaul. No water was provided or even mentioned. At 11 pm when we did arrive at the hotel, which has changed multiple times en-route, and we have received texts and calls from Uhaul saying that they could not process their payment for our hotel room, could they charge it to our card (which we had no choice but to say yes) we arrived at the third hotel. No reservation was made, under my name or the name of the manager that was on duty. I was on the phone with the hotel front desk staff and Uhaul on the phone checking names and reservations. NONE had been made, I paid for the hotel myself after securing our room without the assistance of Uhaul. We then ordered food at Applebees after being stranded on the highway for 7 hours and the long drive behind the Uhaul being towed into town. When we sent our receipt to Uhaul we were told the meal was only covered up to $30 per person. We still have not received a refund for this meal, in full or partial. During the drive, in the rain at night with no streetlights Uhaul called multiple times, and texted multiple times. THIS IS UNSAFE and an absolutely trash policy that needs to be changed. All of the arrangements, tow, hotel, and food, could have been arranged during traditional business hours but the Uhaul "policy" is unsafe, inefficient, and left us stranded for hours without food or water with multiple pets in our vehicle for no reason. Before going to bed we notified UHaul we want movers to help with the transload . Tuesday 3/12. At 7am (despite the previous night telling Uhaul we would not be awake until 8am at which time it would be alright to contact us) we received multiple texts, some of which which contained erroneous information, and a call at 8 am we are notified we have to wait another 2 hours for movers to arrive at Uhaul to complete the transload. The staff at this Uhaul location did not know how to handle a transload or complete the paperwork for a truck transfer. When we arrive we are given a truck that smelled strongly of cigarette smoke (for a 1600 mile drive) despite this being against Uhaul policy. In about 3 hours while assisting the movers we secured everything into the new vehicle. We drove approximately 2 blocks to a Costco where we filled the new truck with gas, which spilled over and Costco Staff rushed out to stop the tank and manually push the truck out of the station since it may be unsafe. I immediately called Uhaul, very upset, because we have received a second broken truck and are left in the same position as we were for the first truck, stranded, in need of repairs, and with Uhaul policy being to wait to do anything. Again, we have pets in our vehicles and cannot return to the hotel we had stayed at due to checkout times. I demand that we be given a new hotel since my pets could not stay in a hot car for an undetermined amount of time while Uhaul processed the issue, especially since one of them had gotten ill the previous day while stranded on the highway for 7 hours without a chance to eat, drink, or use the bathroom. Uhaul tells me again they cannot secure a hotel until we are en route, I leave my partner with the truck and return to the hotel from the previous night, they refused us a room a second time as it violated their pet policy which the staff the previous night had been relaxed with due to how late and tired we were. I spoke with the desk staff at that hotel to help find a second hotel, we then drove to the second hotel where Uhaul again failed to secure a reservation. I spoke with a manager there for two minutes before they allowed us to secure a room and I was able to get my pets inside and give them access to basic necessities. All hotel arrangements and discussions were made by me, without the assistance of Uhaul. During this time it became known that the call or a mechanic had been put on hold until the hotel was secured. This caused further delays. The mechanic that did arrive said the gas tank was not connected to a pump of some sort and caused the gas to overflow. He connected them again and we managed to leave town around 4-5pm, however we had at this point lost over 12 hours (two days of driving) worth of our 24 hour long drive to delays as a direct result of Uhauls inaction and bad policies. For the remainder of the drive the Uhaul windows had to be down due to the smell of smoke, which the driver was allergic to, and we were in fear of another engine failure or breakdown the entire time. Thursday 3/14 While checking the address for our dropoff I noticed the address had been changed to the pickup location of the second truck, in Wenatchee WA, 1500 miles away from our destination. I contacted Uhaul about this and am told the drop off is MN, despite all paperwork I have showing the location was changed to Wenatchee, WA. I request it be resent with updated information and instead receive another email with the location in WA. I have no reason to trust anything Uhaul tells me at this time as not once was a hotel reservation made appropriately, we did not receive the help promised, and did not get food credits. Even upon returning the truck 3/16 the dropoff location in all my emails and the receipt still say Wenatchee, WA Saturday 3/16 Return truck in Minneapolis, MN with ½ tank full of gas, as was our original truck. We are told we have to pay an additional $20 in gas because the second truck had a tank with 3/8th gas. This difference was not relayed to us. We to date have not received any credit for the extra gas/mileage incurred due to the original pickup location change (40 miles), 2 gallons of gas that spilled due to the second truck not being connected, the hour trip from Wenatchee back to I90 so we could resume our trip. The gas for our other vehicle for the pickup location change as well as the drive to and from Wenatchee due to the breakdown, nor the driving between hotels, has been accounted for or refunded. During the trip a CAF (4671293) was opened by my sister, an employee of Uhaul. We were told within 3 days we would be contacted. As of 3/20 no one had contacted us and the case was marked as closed. On 3/20 I called in again to check on the status to learn that it was closed. I requested the case be opened again and was told someone would reach out within 48 hours. No one at Uhaul who we spoke to during the events that took place even told us this was an option or offered it, which is again unacceptable considering that we had two trucks break down and had multiple issues aside from that. The entire experience of this rental was a nightmare. Pickup was at a location that did no checks before handing us the keys, pickup location changed significantly and without warning, truck experienced a catastrophic failure within hours of picking it up, roadside assistance was unhelpful, rude, and lied to us multiple times. The second truck pickup was messy and poorly executed, and again we were given a truck that smelled strongly of smoke and was again broken. We were forced to go out of our way by a significant amount, received little to no assistance from Uhaul, and all of our requests were ignored, including accommodations like water and to not close support tickets, we were sent incorrect or misleading information multiple times, and instead of staff being apologetic or understanding of the situation they had 100% created they were rude and unhelpful. Every day we spoke to multiple different people, none of whom seemed to know the entire situation or be adequately informed or prepared to help. At one point on Thursday we were told by a new person they would review our file and get back to us, they called within 5 minutes which was obviously not enough time to review a file that spanned two trucks breaking down and multiple days of serious issues taking place. To date we have received a refund totally about $165, this does not cover the hotel expenses I took on at the second hotel myself, gas usage and loss for the extra milage and loss of gas at the pump, or food credits. Our rental was over $2400 and our trip was expanded from 3 days to 4 ½ days. Our pets got sick twice while stranded in the vehicle which required steam cleaning and was also a rental. The service, both in the rental vehicles themselves and the service provided when both vehicles broke down was unacceptable and terrible from Uhaul. The vendors you hired (tow, movers, and mechanic) were great and helpful, Uhaul's internal staff left so much to be desired however. Uhaul policies are defunct, unsafe, outright dangerous, and leave your clients with the onus of responsibility to pick up where you fall extremely short. The systems you have put in place to not properly inspect or maintain vehicles, help during vehicle failures, provide for your clients basic needs, advocate at all for special needs, and provide satisfactory customer support are woefully inadequate. The bar you have set is not even on the ground, it is 6 ft underground. We will be looking for any alternative to Uhaul in the future. Driver #2 Hello UHaul, We have both used uhaul in the past many times, but this one experience has caused us to not want to touch uhaul ever again and to warn everyone we know and our 100k followers how bad your services and customer care is. From the beginning, we reserved a 20' truck from the local uhaul store through uhaul.com, 2 weeks prior to the day of the pickup. We were not notified until a day before that the location does not in fact have a 20' truck, and customer service told us that reservations are not sent to the locations/setup until 2 days prior to the reservation day. This policy of not notifying the customer that their reservation is not valid until days before a large move is BAD POLICY. This forced us, unplanned at the last minute, to pick a new uhaul location 40 miles away, adding unplanned for costs onto our rental car, both in the form of an extra 80 miles on to odometer and spent gas, in addition to the mileage and gas getting the uhaul truck back to our place to load up. This is a DIRECT RESULT from UHaul's bad policy. The truck was not checked over for damages or maintenance, as evident by what transpired. We were handed the keys and sent on our way. The first truck's motor ended up breaking/exploding into a ball of white smoke. To where oil was leaking out after it was stopped and the truck was inoperable as I suspect the engine seized up and the engine block cracked. This happened no more than 150 miles from our starting destination, in a 1,650 mile trip. Handing us the keys to a truck that clearly did not have its maintenance up to par, and was unfit for even 150 miles, for a large cross country trip that Uhaul was aware of, is VERY DANGEROUS and bad policy. This is a DIRECT RESULT of UHauls bad policies and performance. Called roadside assistance through uhaul. Roadside assistance said a tow truck will be on its way and gave us an estimated time of 2 hours LIE #1. Also told us that we will be getting a call back with hotel reservations within 10-15 minutes LIE #2. We were also informed we would be getting $50 food credit per person LIE #3. We were asked if we needed any other accommodations and we asked for water and the request was confirmed LIE #4. Upon 30 minutes we called back as we did not get any call but instead received a text message, and we were informed we would not be getting a hotel reservation until we are en route to the city the truck is being towed to. We were told that is Uhaul's policy, regardless of what we were told earlier. Via text message conversations, we asked to speak to a manager and were promptly ignored of the request, only to be told over the phone by a manager in a later phone conversation that they were supposed to call us within 10 minutes of asking. DIRECT LIES to us as we are stranded on the side of the road trying to grasp a handle of any timeline and destination for us. We then waited until around 8-9pm for a tow truck to show up, and the tow truck driver informed us that uhaul did not inform him that anyone was stranded waiting by the truck for him, BAD POLICY otherwise he "would have come sooner". Assumption is that it was an abandoned vehicle to tow. We did not receive the water we requested. During this 6-7 hour wait in the car on the side of the road, one of the cats peed into their carrier and down the rental car seat, as they were trapped in their carrier for 7 hours. The 7 hour wait was a DIRECT RESULT of uhauls actions. The towed UHaul was taken an hour in the opposite direction of where we were going, adding on extra miles and gas to our rental car, in addition to extra miles onto our new UHaul the next morning to get back on track, which was not planned for. DIRECT RESULT of uhauls actions. While driving en route, at 10pm, following the tow truck, we received 3 phone calls from UHaul, as they were having difficulty finding a hotel. BAD AND UNSAFE POLICY forcing your customers to interact with their phone while driving. One problem was with Uhaul having issues paying for the hotel, the second was to change to a new hotel (Causing us to look up new directions while driving) and asked us if we could pa a $50 incidental fee for our comped room and the third was that they were having issues getting a hold of the front desk. All of these issues could have been avoided, and calls to us, the customer, who is currently driving at night could have been avoided. That is if all the hotel information was figured out in the hours we were sitting and not doing anything at the side of the road, during normal hotel business hours. Instead of insisting on us waiting until we are driving blindly towards a town that might have a hotel. This is a DIRECT RESULT of Uhauls actions and BAD UNSAFE POLICY. We drop the truck off at the place with the tow truck, and get to the aforementioned hotel that we were told to head to. To where we find out no reservation was ever made, even though the front desk clerk was aware of our situation. We ended up paying for the room ourselves. We get into the hotel room, which unbeknownst to us until after, had bedbugs. We have not heard from UHaul about our food credit, so we order ourselves food as it is now 11pm. We contact UHaul, and are informed that our food credit is only $30 per person from the $50 we were told and that it never was $50. DIRECT RESULT of Uhauls poor policies and performance. The next day we help the movers move our contents from one truck to the next, which takes about 3 hours. We then get in the cab to go fill up the tank and the cab smells of cigarette smoke, which we are allergic to but at this point there's no changing it. Have to continue with windows open. DIRECT RESULT of Uhauls poor maintenance of their vehicles. In addition to the smoke filled cab, the second truck, like the first, was unsafe to drive. At the local costco within the same town, the gas tank starts pouring gas onto the ground from underneath the truck upon filling it. Estimated 1-2 gallons until a costco attendant emergency shut off the pump and went into action containing the spill. The attendant informed us he sees this all the time with UHauls and especially with "one of the large UHaul trucks" in the city (presumably the one we had), implying to us, that it was a known and repeated issue. A DIRECT RESULT of UHauls poor maintenance of their vehicles. We recontacted roadside assistance and were informed our roadside assistance case was closed, even though we were informed earlier that we had to call to close the case prior. We asked to reopen the case and to leave it open upon our request until we make it to our destination. DIRECT LIES and BAD POLICY Uhaul calls a mechanic and informs us that they will be getting us another hotel room reservation so the cats don't unnecessarily sit in the car again as we have to wait longer before leaving again. Uhaul's hotel reservation policy apparently requires that we (the customer) be present in person at the hotel desk before any reservation can be made. This resulted in us having to drive to multiple hotels as the first denied the reservation, again putting miles and gas onto our rental car. Which could have been partially avoided if a hotel reservation would have been made over the phone ahead of time in our name. This extra traveling and hassle again is a DIRECT RESULT and BAD POLICY from Uhaul. Mechanic fixed the truck's gas tank and said the coupler from the gas intake to the tank was not connected. We then went on our way. A day before our final destination point we got an email from UHaul informing us of our truck drop off time and location, and the location was changed to where we picked the second truck up 1600 miles away. Call customer support and were informed that our case again was closed, even though we requested for it to remain open as we did not once feel safe for one moment driving the new truck across country. This again is a BAD POLICY to close out support cases on a still ongoing situation that has already had 2 major vehicle malfunctions. Never felt safe driving Truck #2 cause of Truck #1's faulty maintenance, and also never felt safe filling up the gas tank at every stop along the 1650 mile trip because of truck #2's faulty maintenance. Had to drive in the cold weather with the window down/cracked because of the cigarette smoke smell in the cab. Had to steam clean the rental car seat because of the forced 7 hour wait without relief for the cats because of the tow truck not being informed. Had to extend the rental car reservation an extra day because of the delay. Had to pay extra in gas for both the rental car and the uhaul trucks from the additional mileage to pick up at a new location, to drive an hour in the wrong direction to drop the towed truck off, to have to drive around to hotels to find a hotel when the gas tank broke. Was lied to on the phone multiple times and then told that we were not told what a previous representative told us. And on top of it all, now we have to deal with the possibility that bed bugs followed both of us home to both our homes. These are all DIRECT RESULTS from Uhauls performance and policies. From all this, we are asking for a refund of the food bill, refund of the "comped" bed bug filled hotel room, refund of the extra day on our rental car, and a full refund of the UHaul reservation as we paid for reliable transportation and received 2 broken trucks, a bunch of lies, gas lighting, consistent run around, and a slew of problems in return. 0/10 rating on uhauls performance, 0/10 rating on hotels selected, and 0/10 on customer service. however 10/10 rating on every outside company you hired (tow truck, Mechanic, Movers). They were all fantastic and the interactions with them were professional and pleasant.
