It was absolutely the best I love the van that I was renting and the people were so helpful God bless
linda B.At this time, nothing.
Tracy A.We dealt with Brad on a getting a U-box to bring back our stuff to Arizona and he was excellent to work with. He provided first rate customer service and made part of our trip very pleasant.
Clayton K.Customer sales representative was polite, and very understanding of our needs !she needs a raise
Arthur S.Nice
Terry S.I have no complaints
Matt E.The person who helped us was very friendly, understanding, and helpful! She made our experience moving so much better.
Emily H.When I order 2 furniture dollys and an extra normal dolly I expect to at least get something. If not everything I asked for normally I'll manage but I had no dollys at all. Other than not getting what I paid for everything was fine.
Zachary F.This was the worst experience with U-Haul I have ever experienced, phone calls and emails everyday after I made the initial call had to go two and a half hours out of our way to pick up a U-Haul that was supposed to be 20 minutes from my house, however the last woman that I spoke to got it all worked out and the girl at the pickup location was excellent but it wasn't their fault. I will think twice about ever using U-Haul again but because it put us so far behind schedule cost me so much more in fuel.
John S.Truck was in poor running condition and it didn't smell fresh. Why? I reserved the truck more than 24hrs in advance. Website wasn't user-friendly. Customer service was very informative (which I appreciated.
Frank J.Let's just say every company or business would be better if they had Dana! She has made my stressful, hectic move so easy. I will forever use U-haul and her for any moving needs. I will also let everyone I know to do the same! By far the best customer service I have ever received in my 20 plus years of using u-haul! I am very grateful and thankful for all she has done!
Lyndsey W.This location is amazing! I would have never gotten through this move without Dana! Everyone is so nice and went above and beyond to make this stressful situation easier on me and my fiancé! I will forever use U-Haul because of her!!!!
Lyndsey W.Could be more upfront with the information that round trip is cheaper for the most part. Very confusing. Also learned to go to the place or phone them, never use the online site. Sims Auto Care in Kankakee is one of the nicest guys I ever dealt with. I used him to reserve my trailer.
Jeff S.I only use u-haul for moving or hauling great service keep it up Thanks
Henrey M.Need a good body and fender man for touch up on the unit you rented me They know it runs good but getting a little beat up needs some TLC Hope this helps Thanks
Anthony R.No improvements needed. The experience was great, Dana was great. It's the best and most personalized customer service I receive. I still wish I was charged per day/insurance up front, then charged mileage once I return the vehicle.
Oscar J.Nothing, everything went smooth, Dana was very helpful
Nicholas K.Look over the truck with customer when giving them keys. When the customer returns to drop off truck don't tell them they parked truck to far in parking lot when you do not specify where to park it's rude.
David H.Very friendly very helpful staff
jeffrey P.Great location, love the manager, she's great. Her work ethic and positivity caused me to apply for a career there. Unfortunately, it wasn't FT. I certainly love renting from here. I wish the miles were charged once the vehicle is dropped off. As a consumer, I believe that would be more “honest/transparent†of U-Haul, with a receipt of refund since I didn't use all the miles I requested. This lady is always running and she sets a fine example and image of the organization. Very accommodating as well. Thank you for your efforts.
Oscar J.As always outstanding service from Dana and staff
Joseph L.Excellent staff that really works with you
Michael P. | First ImpressionsThe Manager Dana is a great professional representing your company. I WILL be back for future moves!
William W.Dana and her staff were amazing. I had an emergency situation and Dana and her staff helped me get on the road.
Shari L.Your my place to go when renting thanks
Henrey M.How about you improve the app!! I have a standard Android device, clean-installed the app and still had issues. Worked through the browser thankfully. Also, when starting my reservation, I don't recall anything about a $34.99 fuel surcharge, and I did not agree to pay for that having only driven 16 miles. If I was asked/told to replace the fuel in the truck I'd have done so. Even at $5/gal that's $10 in gas figuring I probably only get 8mpg... I WILL NOT USE YOUR RIP OFF SERVICES AGAIN SO LONG AS I CAN HELP IT if this is how it'll be.
Nicholas S.Online check in was very easy. Staff was prompt and very nice
Justin B.pickup was quick and easy; employees were friendly, professional, and prompt. trailer hookup took no time at all. store was well maintained and appropriately staffed. drop off was also a breeze. the inside of the 6x12ft trailer had some sort of grease on the floor, both near the entrance and near the back. after wiping it down, I had to cover the main area with duct tape so my personal belongings did not get dirty. FWIW, prior to me leaving the store with the trailer, the employee helping me did offer to mop up the floor of the trailer. I was on a time crunch so declined her help and took care of the spill myself, but having it clean prior to pickup would've been helpful.
Timothy E.Best ever! 30 days of free storage you can’t beat that.
ALIYAH J. | Overall ExperienceI preferred not to take the insurance and reimburse if damaged by me but the uhaul representative added the insurance as well to the bill which I realized later.
Anusha C.nothing they do a great job there
ELIOT K.Great to work with!
Jon F.fast & easy drop-off,
HERSCHEL N.Desk staff was knowledgeable and courteous.
Anthony B. | First ImpressionsWaited 15 mins before someone helped me... the lady behind the counter just stood there. Then the guy was irate when the internet went down . Will never go back to this location again.
JASON C.Got me the equipment I needed and center manager was very helpful.
EMERY P.Great customer service and quick check in time!
Ryan C.Vehicle was unsafe to drive. Broken windshield wipers, rented truck during a winter storm. Broken turn signal.
GREGORIO B.You always a pleasure to work with
STEVEN B. | Overall ExperienceUnequivocally one of the best U-Haul sites I have ever used
JOSEPH L.The lady attendant was amazing with all the people there.
Chris W.WOULD NOT RECOMMEND TO A FRIEND BECAUSE STORAGE AT UHAUL IS EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE. I FOUND A MUCH BETTER DEAL IN MOMENCE FOR STORAGE 麟
Beckie E. | Overall ExperienceExcellent customer service. I have rented trucks from this location a couple of times and the young lady who works there - I'm sorry I don't remember her name; maybe Dana ?? - is terrific. She is knowledgeable and efficient and quite pleasant. Further, the fella that checks the trucks in; Cedric maybe ?? is friendly and efficient as well.
TEENA M.Great service!
Jerry G.Both employees I worked with today (Feb. 9) were very professional and friendly! The rental process was super fast and efficient! I will definently come here again if I ever need to rent another Uhaul!
Brenda M.Some instructions on using the vehicle basics would have been helpful.
FRANKIE ANN S.As always Dana and her staff are very professional. Should always consider having Dana help teach new gms
Joseph L.I love UHAUL storage center and will recommend this storage facility to anyone. The storage facility was clean and i loves being able to have 24/7 access to my things.
Lennie D. | Overall ExperienceThe original girl that took care of me in the morning was very friendly and efficient in doing her job. The truck that was rented to me was a piece of junk. The tires had no traction and while driving it on the highway it was very shaky to the point of me returning it in the same day and continuing my move by using my own small trailer. When we arrived to return the truck I was a little short on the fuel level and the gentleman that came out to help was very rude about it and threw a number of 85 dollars that I he was going to have to charge me. After doing the math on what he was charging me vs the fuel level that the truck was short we knew the figure was wrong so we went inside to kindly try to reconcile the difference so I would Not have to drive that unstable truck again to the gas station and fuel it back to the original Level it was at. A rule for u haul Should Be that the truck should be rented out on full not some ridiculous level that is virtually impossible To bring it back at like we had to do. Immediately the guy that was checking us in got very rude when we went inside. we explained to him that we felt that the price he figured for fuel Was wrong so he said let me just put it in again and yea it was 20 dollars off just like we thought. We told Him how bad the truck was and he said “ all of our trucks are “ and I replied to him that with the money That haul charges they need to fix the trucks. I am very disappointed that I could not use the truck to finish my move because it inconvenienced me more than it was worth to rent from you to begin with. I hope you take this seriously for Future customers to be able To have a better experience. It would be really nice to hear back from you regarding this matter and also to get some kind of a refund back to me Thank you Darlene Krueger 217-379-7770
darlene K.Nothing!!!!!! You great people!!!!!!!
RONALD T.Bryan took my reservation painlessly and Dana was awesome at getting me hooked up. Great hard-working crew all the way around.
JOHN M.There was ice on the floor of the motorcycle trailer that I rented. Please icemelt the trailer before I get there so I don't slip and fall while loading/unloading my motorcycle.
Joseph G.Dana always is cheerful and professional. More site managers should emulate her style.
Joseph L.The lady at the desk was extremely helpful I don't remember her name but I think she was the manager. I would like to thank her for all her help and her friendly attitude.

Maqueta M. | First ImpressionsThe manager is extremely knowledgeable and very efficient. The facilities are top notch from cleanliness to security. The distance to my unit from the entrance is excessive. There needs to be a way to bring the unit to the entrance.
Wesley S. | First ImpressionsAlways greeted by staff, always so helpful! Great staff! Always highly recommend UHaul
ann s. | Overall ExperienceI rented the truck from Crete and the unit in Kankakee. The first unit didn't have a lock inside and the manager said she puts them in there "when she gets to it." The lock SHOULD have been there already, not when it's convenient for the manager. When I arrived the open sign was on at the office, but they were closed. We had to figure out the keypads on our own. The people that answer when the manager has her calls forwarded can help with nothing when called, all they do is apologize. The managers number is listed as an "emergency contact" on the keypad, but it gets forwarded to the "I'm sorry" crew. Horrible customer service! We walked away from the first unit and had to rerent the truck. The next morning I call the location and that's when I was told the lock is put there when convenient for her. She switched me to a different, larger unit that DIDNT HAVE 24 HOUR ACCESS. I found this out as I'm standing at the door at midnight with the people that helped me move the large furniture that was in the truck and am denied access to my unit, and when I call the emergency number I get the "I'm sorry" representatives. Now I have a truck full of heavy furniture that was supposed to be returned to the Crete location, that they had already booked out for another person the next morning at 10 AM, with no access to my unit and no way of getting my helpers back at 5 AM when they open. I am forced to carry over the truck into the next day, that messes up the next customers reservation, and I'm guessing by how helpful the customer service representative was (sarcasm) the email that she said she sent to the general manager probably didn't explain this whole situation. I am trying to move three children and all of our belongings and had very limited time with the people that were helping me move. "I'm sorry" is not what someone wants to hear when they're standing outside of a storage unit that was supposed to be 24 hour access with a house full of their belongings at midnight. I will be calling the location in the morning, as well as the Crete location to explain again what happened and to sort out what the charges will be due, considering all the extra mileage and day added because of these mistakes on U-Haul's part.
Katherine R. | Online Move InYou are GROSSLEY OVERPRICED!
T and I I. | Overall ExperienceDANA was helpful, professional and very efficient to work with. She made it easy to rent the truck and to find a rental storage unit. The first month free was very helpful in deciding where to store everything.
Savannah G. | First ImpressionsAfter setting up the account for the storage, we also set up a one way truck rental from Carbondale to Kankakee and received an email for a free month. Manager Dana was very helpful in making sure we could still receive the month free. At time of move in, Steve was also extremely helpful with the way the facility works and locating our locker as well as the truck return. Excellent customer service all around.
Michelle W. | Online Move InSometimes a male worker would be rude when I would call. I asked to have a manager call me regarding his behavior never got called.
Patricia C. | Overall ExperienceVery accommodating and helpful. Made it very easy

Ann T. | Overall ExperienceI rated the facility clean but the floors were not swept. There was an earn or something similar out side of the door we used and it trash that had been there for sometime and flys were swarming it, which made it pretty gross getting our things out of our unit which was not a main entrance but could use some attention.
Angela K. | Overall ExperienceThe management goes above and beyond! I am more than satisfied! ¡Gracias!
Peter R. | Overall ExperienceGreat staff
David D. | First ImpressionsVery friendly staff. Excellent customer service. Special shout-out to Dana. She really took great care of us. Would highly recommend this business.
Jerald P. | Overall ExperienceI want to highly, highly recommend your Bradley sales associate, Sophia. I had to bother her 5 or 6 times for assistance. She was so pleasant and helpful each time. She fully explained the directions and procedures. Sophia made the move-in experience so very easy. As I move more items into my new storage unit, I hope to see Sophia again. She made me very happy.
Julie S. | First ImpressionsNice building.
Jerald P. | First ImpressionsI am a long time customer of U-Haul services and this new facility is expertly and efficiently maintained. I am pleased that there is such a facility in our area and look forward to continuing.
John A. | First ImpressionsThe dollies that were provided to wheel belongings from the unit to the truck were a lifesaver!! Also the ability to pull your vehicle/uhaul van into the indoor garage space to load/unload was great
Shannon S. | Overall ExperienceThe staff was Great!
