This is our second rental from this location! The staff is knowledgeable, welcoming, and helpful. They make it easy pick up and drop off. 10 out of 10!
Diana S.Everything went very smoothly. Would highly recommend using this location for your moving and storage needs.
Marc S.Really did not see any issues
Robert D.Everything was great, staff and equipment, the only complaint was the sign up process which was a bit cumbersome, and much easier to complete in person than online.
Paul B.The tow/haul button was on and I freaked out because the truck was driving weird. I was very stressed out with this move and I called Uhaul. The nice girl, I wish I could remember her name, she talked me down and talked me thru the dash to unengage the tow. It ran fine after that. She was the best!!
Lori D.Everything went smooth def checking was easy and saved me from coming back at 7AM , plus they just told me I saved 20.00 dollars by doing it ,thumbs up Uhaul
Glenn D.I've rented several things from them and the services always excellent.
Bill N.Very helpful after the hitch/wiring instalation was improperly done at the Westfield MA location. Thank you to Shane and crew for getting us going.
Spenser W.Easy, courteous associate when returning at this truck. Simple instructions. Excellent!
Leland K.Great service
lisa s. | First ImpressionsThe bald guy working there was real grumpy. He wasn't pleasant to be around at all. He expected me to know how the text I received worked about the damage waiver. Which, in my opinion is a real hassle. Too many texts and verifications on my phone to deal with. What if I don't have a phone?
John S.Excellent service!!! Very friendly and servicing staff!! We recommend this location.
jaun N.24 hours access
Raina S. | First ImpressionsBernadette was extremely helpful . She is a huge asset to your company. For a working person with 2 jobs, you should be able to access the facility 24/7.

edward C.really great service
Honghui Z. | First ImpressionsThey were very kind and detailed from start to finish, I recommend them in all aspects
Ruben A. | First ImpressionsI was charged additional fees for no reason ! I'm a little upset with this, specially since I have proof.
Michael R.Awesome staff when picking up and dropping off the rental truck and trailer
Johnny F.This is the cleanest, best run U-Haul facility I have ever used. The staff is courteous and the equipment was in mint condition. Highly recommend this facility.
Phillip C.The app crashed repeatedly preventing me from completing my check information in prior to arriving. Has happened in the past as well.
Patrick G.Very friendly staff, prompt service-made moving a nice experience
James C.My experience was amazing, the owner is amazing and treats everybody so good. I would definitely come back !!!
Angely M.Also professional and super easy for the customer!
Daniel G.The drop-off was totally botched. The drop off place in Hampton didn't accept or rent UHaul equipment. He told me to go to Brooklyn, who promptly told me they're not accepting anything. However, the woman in Brooklyn (CT) told me to take it to Columbia. I drove 25 miles out of my way for absolutely nothing! The people at the Columbia drop-off were excellent.
Ted W.Manager is extremely cooperative
jack K.A little computer system mix-up when picking up the truck, but it got fixed fairly quickly. Overall a good experience.
Peter L.Making sure customers actually receive there refund
wendy C.The owner of this facility knows each of his trucks like they are his own children. I have used U-Haul in the past and quite honestly it was not the best of experiences. This was a total change. Truly excellent service, a clean and safe vehicle and friendly and knowledgeable staff
Don G.I had a discount applied to my account that was ignored by the owner. I explained it very clearly. The owner tried to convince me for 5 minutes that I'm wrong and the discount is already reflected in the price, reading again and again the breakdown and telling me that the discrepancy is just because of the additional fees and insurance. After very annoying 5 minutes, he finally dropped the argument and fixed the price (over $500 difference!). Also, the truck was not water sealed. A lot of my equipment got destroyed and I have filed a claim for it.
Moran A.I can't say enough about Shane and his crew at this location. They are INCREDIBLE, and always have gone above and beyond to help me. I've used this location quite a bit in the past 2 years and they've always have been on time, incredibly efficient and kind. Please give this group some kudos, they work really hard and provide a fantastic service.
Lisa F.Once I dropped off the van, I would have liked to know what the total charge was.
John C.Nothing, everything was easy and went well. ¡Gracias!
HANNAH H.It took me 45 fucking minutes to rent car hauler...totally unacceptable...get faster better fucking workers there is no way in hell it should"ve taken fucking 45 minutes ...fucking bullshit
Richard W.The front desk person was very condescending when picking up the rental. When I called to extend my rental by 1.5 hours due to unforseen/unplanned circumstances, a separate desk person became argumentative and extremely rude with me over the phone. Will not be recommending this place or coming back, ever.
Katelyn C.Nothing to improve Uhaul always provide an excellent service from the customer service till the equipment/ great service thanks so much Uhaul 👍â¤ï¸
Mary A.I love coming to your shop. Servicio al cliente de excelencia. You guys are nice, friendly, and professionals. Thank you ! The spider plant is doing well!
RUTH V.Great experience. Staff was very pleasant and efficient. Equipment was in good shape and it is a very easy place to pickup and drop off. The only negative is we never received our final invoice via email as promised.
Kenneth R.Pick up and return were smooth. Staff is friendly and knowledgable. They easy made our stressful situation easier!
Diana S.Reserved 6/20 for 2 days with Shane in Columbia CT. Called 6/25 to confirm 5pm pick up. Shane tells me there is no truck. Come at 7 am tomorrow. Told my husband the same when he got on the phone. Doing an antique show with heavy expensive items that had to be packed the night before No call 48 hours prior to pick up from Shane [ per U-haul's policy ]. 2 hours and 3 frantic calls to the regional office which resulted in a breathtaking amount of pure incompetence - finally the third person [Leah ] got a truck several towns away for the 2 days that we had reserved. When Leah spoke with Shane to question the situation, he lied and told her that he had said to us that the truck would not be there until 5. At the other office where the truck was located, the person [ forgot her name ] said she would credit us for the 14 miles we had to drive to pick up the vehicle, but never did. Today,I called the regional office again 3 times and wasted an hour. The first person was some foreign smart alek who could not have cared less and in the middle of the conversation just transferred me to Tennessee who transferred me to scheduling. THAT person was professional and courteous. She wondered how Shane was able to get away with his conduct, told me that she was going to look into what happened and graciously gave me the refund on the extra miles I had to drive to get the other truck. Oh!! And they overcharged me 34 miles on the mileage. The round trip including the drop off was 68 miles. They charged me for 104. No, I did not take photos of the odometer, so I am out an additional 14.00. The whole experience was exhausting and stressful Pretty much ruined the whole event for me. I will NEVER use U-haul again.
Michelle C.The staff was helpful and courteous, good price and easy to work with.
scott g. | First ImpressionsQuick, competent, and friendly service, with a clean, bright, and well organized store and lot, and with equipment that was in great shape - what's not to like! Would eagerly use this location/team again... ¡Gracias!
Geoffrey B.The manager, Shane, runs a "tight ship" in tyhis operation and keeps everything to company standards and as a business it is appreciated
jack K.The folks at U-Haul Moving & Storage of Columbia are phenomenal! Not only was the vehicle rented exactly as promised, in great shape and fully clean. But the staff were super pleasant to work with! If you need to haul or move something bigger than your car can handle, this is the only place to go!
Kevin W.The same great customer service

Anne C. | Overall Experiencethank you
Angela M. | Overall ExperienceReserving the unit was quick and easy. The service I e person I worked with was very good and helpful, but I felt he was a bit condescending to me because I'm a woman.
Maria M. | First ImpressionsThe staff was friendly enough, but it took forever(!) to get a storage unit due to the person not knowing their job. When closing out my unit early the woman just said I did not get any money refunded and could've easily explained they do not pro-rate, but I was left to wonder and had to research it myself.
Leslie G. | Overall ExperienceLovely and well managed! My stuff was in a temperature controlled unit for a year and was fine. The staff was friendly and helpful. The bathroom facilities were extremely clean as well. This was at the Colombia CT UHaul.

CHERYL L. | Overall ExperienceThe only thing is, it said first month free but I didn’t get first month free.
Christina T. | Online Move InMy items were in good shape and in safe condition at this UHaul however I received poor customer service. I was unfairly penalized for an error that was not my fault and was not provided a refund. I would like for UHaul to be better about communicating the information for setting up a storage unit and to double-check that the information they have entered is correct. This error on the part of UHaul cost me almost $100. I am not a satisfied customer.
Philip D. | Overall ExperienceStaff was very friendly and fast thank u
Michelle F. | First ImpressionsI had to move unexpectedly and quickly. I learned of the storage availability when I picked up the U-Haul truck the night before. It was very convenient, as I didn't have to worry about finding somewhere else to store my belongings. I entered the store on a busy Saturday morning. Shane was very patient and accommodating, and was able to sense that i was in a difficult and sensitive situation. I was there to unload a 20' truck by myself. (My 14 yo son came later to help move things to the 2 storage units i rented). Shane offered water and checked on me periodically, and even helped to move some heavy items. He suggested locks for the units and plastic covers for the mattresses. In a whiwind day that was difficult, the kindness and compassion he showed made a situation that could have been traumatic not nearly as bad.
Susan J. | First ImpressionsThanks, Great staff, on a very hot day, when I was moving stuff into my unit, they brought me some cold water.
al s. | Overall ExperienceThe staff at this location were kind and helpful. During a very stressful time of life (moving), they make you feel so well taken care of and supported. They are fantastic at advising and willing to go above and beyond. Absolutely loved my time working with them, and the facilities are immaculate.
Sarah C. | First ImpressionsI have been doing business with that location for over ten years. They always tried to be helpful and honest.
