The truck that i reserved a 26 ft.. had a check engine light on... when i spoke to the lady at the counter she told me it was just a sensor and that itd probably be fine... refused to give me one of the other 5, 26 ft trucks that was there.. told me that only thing she had available was a 20 ft truck.. this resulted in multiple trips... not happy about it... When i returned the 20ft truck the next morning... all 5 of the 26 ft trucks was still there none had moved.. even though the lady told me they had all been on reserve..

The truck was fantastic. The car dolley was a little sketchy. One of the ramps was held in place by a piece of wire ran through the grates instead of a locking pin so it shook a lot more and didn’t feel nearly as secure. Customer service was excellent. I

The drop-off line was far too long. I was the only person there in the morning which leads me to believe they failed to do any check-ins the day before. Not only was the check in too long I was hanging out on the street with a trailer and they didn’t even offer to move the line forward for me to pull in. Additionally I had filled the tank to the required 5/8 and the scammed me and said my tank was only 1/2 full which they charged me an additional 8 gals of fuel cost. Very unprofessional and unacceptable considering the vehicle I was given was not performing well and the headlight wasn’t working.

Dolly was covered in snow and straps frozen. Weather has been horrible so not complaining but they could have possibly made effort? Any chance any lower rate or refund. 24 hr rate and I had it for under 3 hr. I know if I went over I would get dinged or if someone came to rent it before my 24 hr time it would go out again? Thank you

The dolly hadn't been returned when I came to pick it up. Right away DJ was on the phone tracking it. It took just a few minutes for it to arrive at that point. But then the computer went crazy with my reservation. He and his coworker (I didn't get her name) had to of troed over a dozen times before I was able to leave. They kept conversation fun and light hearted making the wait and malfunctioning technology bearable.

They told us the vehicle was full of gas. When we got in it was three quarters. Then they tried to say that we drove a hundred and twenty miles. We drove 60. We filled the gas tank to above 3/4. They did Credit as two gallons. $8.50. Call the manager. She finally did credit us down to 60 miles. But I haven't seen the refund yet.

The second time I had to rent a truck I had the rental all set and paid for but when I went to pick up the truck I was given completely different amounts and totals so I called the number I had called to set it up then all of a sudden they had the same info that I had been given so not sure what was going on with that but made me wonder if they simply didn't know their business or was trying to pull one on me. Also just my own opinion; you are offered free month rental on a storage unit but if you already have a storage unit you don't get a month rental free. That just doesn't seem fair.

DON'T LET CUSTOMERS RESERVE TRUCK PICK UP AND DROP OFF LOCATIONS IF YOU REFUSE TO LET US PICK UP AND DROP OFF AT THOSE LOCATIONS!!!! Uhaul is great at telling you to drive an extra 40 minutes to pick up a truck even though you reserved one at a different location. Then, they might not let you drop it off at your RESERVED location, instead asking you to drive even further, pay for more miles and gas, to return the truck to a different location on the day you're MOVING, which is the whole point of getting a uhaul. Y'all need to redo your system, seriously frustrating stuff

I was told extension cord was ok to use since units had no lights in them. One day I was in back of my full unit when my extension cord got unplugged and thrown down and then my cries for help went unanswered. I was all alone in my dark unit with zero light. I was immediately worried of beaking a leg or falling on something. I'll never come back to this one. I also had gotten that unit because I wanted climate control and they put me on the side that wasn't.

I order my truck and storage was told on the website when I made the reservation I would receive 1 month free and then when I get there I was advised payment wasn't to be taken and had to redo all the info again with rep at location then asked about the free month and I was told it was unavailable but I got an email stating I could today. Oh not to mention 1535 was given first it was already rented but I went off YOUR WEBSITE about the size and there is NO WAY that size is a 1 bedroom. All I got was an apology not good enough. I'm canceling my unit and finding a new unit with a different company. Only good thing was they discount the desposit when I picked it up my truck.

The only drawback I have is with the size descriptions. What you say would fit a studio/1 bedroom would more likely be an oversized storage closet. It was very misleading. Unless you had no furniture. I love the climate control.

I recommend people to go there but until I went to pay with cash at the end to close out my storage until this Angela girl give me a fake receipt and went back to close out and the store manager goes that was a fake one and I said I had to make her go back on the cameras to look back and told them everything step-by-step and told her what was going on that day and they had to go back and tell the girls girls what was going on I always deal with the same girl but she was not there I was pretty messed up and now I have to go backOver there after two weeks of getting letters in the mail saying my thing is not closed out saying I still owe $134 to U-Haul is getting ridiculous because it’s not cleared up yet a waste of time for me to drive over there and get this cleared up no I think they should reverse me for something I have to go clean up their mess because this girl did not put my money in the drawer and make a payment on my stuff but they have to go back to cameras

The staff at Des Moines 14th st. Went far and beyond their duties to make my experience great. The phone scheduler need to be fired or u-haul needs to change it's policies with phone ordering. Norfolk VA. Janaf office are no help for all the money a person spends.all they say when you ask for help hooking up is it's not their job.everything I ask for,I didn't get,and I was assured it was there.overcharged,quoted one price after adding up everything then get there and the price is 400 more then they tell you this is what you ordered.at the janaf office they said do you want it or not, terrible business practice just when you need it,I'll never use y'all business again.

Whoever was previously in charge had led me to believe my unit was cleaned out and all items lost early into my lease. When the current manager called me and told me that it was still there, waived the month between when I was told it was gone and when he was reviewing records, and made it very easy for me to continue the lease. If not for him I may have lost several momentos and personal items that are important to me. Clean out was easy and it was quick getting out of the store after. Overall its been a good experience. No signs of anyone trying to get into the units, it was tyically clean and quiet inside.
