Truck was clean but tire pressure was low -or- the indicators were faulty. This was reported prior to departure but I was told to self check the tires and go ahead if I was satisfied. Brakes grabbed and pulled hard right just prior to a full stop.

I received a reservation to pick up my Uhaul at Mobile Highway. As we are sitting rhere, I get a text to pick up the truck on N Davis Highway, which was 20 mins away. So I call the place, no answer. Call Customer Servive and he says he will put a note on the account but we could be 20 minutes late, we were going to be there 25 minutes late as we didn't know what was happening and I had to go into the UHaul to discuss. So frustrating that I was told the correct address before yesterday at 10am, literally. The truck needs maintenance and, especially rhe tire sensor.

I really don't think there's anything that you could actually do. It's in a great location, the only problem is only being able to go out one way. It's impossible to make a u-turn. But, overall it's a good place.

In Jan. 2024 while on vacation for our daughter's wedding, the transmission went out on our vehicle. U haul is one of the few services where you can tow your own vehicle back home. Thankfully our transmission is under warranty. Thank you UHaul for making an already stressful situation better.

The gal we dealt with was not particularly friendly when we first came in. We were told we couldn't rent the van we wanted because we did not have a drivers license for the state we were in (we have a second home in Florida), so we had to rent a larger vehicle and pay more for fuel per mile. The truck we were forced to rent reeked of cigarette smoke. When we returned the vehicle we told the gal how badly this brand new truck smelled and she said "they aren't supposed to smoke in it". There were no signs stating that and we were never told the vehicles are not to be smoked in when we came in. There was a sign in the back of the truck stating there would be a $25 charge if the truck was not swept out before returning, yet people are allowed to smoke in the vehicle with no ramifications whatsoever. Apparently this is not being monitored either. Someone should have been easily able to tell it was smoked in the first time it happened if they were paying attention. It was disgusting and we will not be renting from U-Haul again.

My lock didn’t close properly because your office refused to repair the door latch even after repeatedly bringing it to your attention. I had to always bring a second person and tools to pry the door upward so that the latch holes lined up and the lock bar could fit through both holes. I requested someone to bore the holes out larger multiple times. I have crippled hands. When I finally put my own lock on that had a thinner bar so that I wouldn’t require a helper and tools, you took off my lock, put on your own, and locked me out of my unit. When I needed in, your employees couldn’t find the key to your lock. Your employee spent 30 minutes trying different keys, then had the nerve to yell at me and call me names because I waited in my truck in the AC while you tried to unlock my unit, unsuccessfully. I was locked out. When I came back a week later, finally a nice man bored out the hole for me, and I was forced to spend $10 on your approved lock. By then I had bought a house and was in the process of emptying the unit. I DREADED having to go to my storage unit for the yesr I had it because I knew there was going to be a 15-30 minute struggle to lock it back up. And I had to find a friend to PAY to come help me every time. Your office REFUSED to fix my latch, so I mostly just couldn’t access my belongings. I’m a single disabled lady, and I don’t appreciate the extra work, expense, and hassle your office put me through. I have ZERO reason to ever recommend this facility to anyone, unless I hate them. I asked multiple times for my latch to be fixed. It took all of five minutes in the end. Yall owe me many HOURS of aggravation in my life that I can never get back.

Be sure that you have the gas tank filled to 3/4 full. When I went to the vehicle, it was only a little over 1/2 full. This is important because I was told to return it 3/4 full. I had to take a photo of the the fuel gauge so that I could show when I returned that it was only a little over half full when I returned the vehicle.

My experience was absolutely terrible! Large Rats urinated and droppings all over my things, they ate through my bags, mildew and water damage. Oh let's not talk about the dead large rat. Rats not Mice! And I paid for insurance coverage. Just awful. I had to throw so many of my things away. So I didn't even open because I saw it had been eaten through.

There was supposed to be a lock inside the unit, but there wasn’t. The light wouldn’t turn on at the switch or by the chair. It looked like it was hanging from the wall and when I touched it it sparked. I reported it to the desk and one of them came to verify it wasn’t working. The next time I go back I have to let them know so someone can possibly fix it. I’m not upset by it, just wished it was already fixed so We could see to put our stuff in.

JQ knew which boxes I needed to purchase and exact quantity. Davis Hwy Uhaul made my move & storage a less stressful time. The entire staff needs to branch off to management at other Uhaul stores. This is one of the best teams ever!!!

Jeffrey Dawson treated me and every person that came in the business as if they were the most important person he had ever known. When I started my move in the Indiana area I waited in long lines. There were no employees to help. When I arrived at Jeffrey Dawson’s place he was unhooking the trailer in anticipation of my next need. If he doesn’t own the place he’s the best employee a business could have. Great guy thanks
