Trailer and hookup was good but there was broken glass in the bed. Location was ok but Rainier Ave location is sketchy and the road has much construction around the entrance. Staff was polite and helpful hooking up and dropping off.

Everything with the rental was fine, I was pleased with the ease of the rental. The staff was personable & friendly--which is very important to me. The pick-up truck i was looking for was available at late notice, everything on truck worked perfectly, and the check out & return were straightforward and simple.

well i reserved a unit in Bellevue Wa near where I lived, you guys tried to switch it to Seattle which would have been horrible since I needed to pick it up in the morning, and rush hour is horrible in Seattle, then you moved it to Redmond and I made arrangements to pick it up remotely before the shop opening. Then on Easter, while I was sitting in church I got a call from you guys as well as a couple of texts, thankfully my ringer was not on, and they stated that you moved it to Lynwood, this would have added about 3 hours to my day for pick up and return. I called up and said that it was unacceptable and I was not going to go to Lynwood. I booked the unit well in advance so I should have been able to get the truck near by me. Then you found one in Renton at your Rainer Ave location. Upon arrival at 7 am they did not have the truck I ordered nor an appliance dolly, which I also ordered ahead of time. I was told I could go to Ballard and pick up the truck I needed, Ballard would have been a waste of over 3 hours, in the end they gave me a smaller truck. The problem I had was that I had used your movers and I only scheduled them for 6 hours and since I had the smaller truck I had to make two trips. I ended up having to pay them 200 extra in cash since I did not want to pay the time and half. I also gave them a tip of 100 since they did an excellent job. You folks cost me a lot of time and money. I am sure you will do nothing about it but I am horribly disappointed .

This review has nothing to do with the staff. Ryan and Natalie were wonderful. I opted to do the online check in. It was a nightmare! I eventually got to the point that I was given the code to access the key for my vehicle only to find that the key was inside the office! In reality there is no online check in at this location, although it’s offered during reservation. It would have been quicker to check in at the counter in the first place. By the time I went through the online process and went into the office I didn’t save time—I WASTED time! Then I checked the inside of the truck and the dolly I ordered wasn’t there. Staff told me that follies weren’t offered with the size of truck I ordered. If that is the case, the dolly shouldn’t be offered as an option when making the reservation. I will NEVER recommend this place! I don’t know which was worse, the moving process or the rental of the truck!

The truck had a lot of exterior damage the back bumper was smashed in I know it’s a rental but I would atleast expect a truck with not as much damage. If I’m paying to rent a vehicle I atleast expect it to look decent

The uhaul app and webpage are infuriating. I had a verification code sent and then entered it . I get an error code that it has expired even though I just received it. This happened every time, on multiple devices.I had to call to reserve the truck.Also when checking out the truck for damages, the website would not let me “continue” after uploading photos of damage. FIX YOUR APP AND WEB SITE.

My unit was at the farthest edge, and farthest back on the property. Not a problem itself, but access to my unit was blocked by another U-Haul truck that was out of service and left to sit on the back of the property--right in front of my unit. The person who showed me to the unit said he would check on getting the truck moved, but never came back. I was forced to navigate around the truck through mud and gravel in order to move items in.

I requested a one way and got a local trip. Management just said it’s not their fault cause the worker was new. Then made me pay for their mistake. If your not going to take responsibility then you should do an overhaul at this U-Haul location.

Poor customer service... Truck was received empty no fuel and when return wanted to charge additional for fuel. Lied stating she told us to return with fuel. My credit was used subway on Saturday the day she was taking photos of my card saying the system was down. The whole time talking to her friends about going to Starbucks. I will never use that location again. Poor communication and very unorganized.

The facility was good. More staff is needed. There weee several trucks blocking the unit. We had to walk quie a ways to unload our stuff. The reservation could not be found. Upon arrival I was told there were no units available. When I called in the morning no one answered the phone and the general UHaul phone answered said everything was ok to go. The manager and girl working there worked very hard to finally locate an available unit.

The staff at this location was extremely helpful under difficult conditions. It took multiple call to the u-haul help line to get the computer to accept the space I reserved online. It took two days and more calls than necessary to resolve the issue.this was not a problem. With the location but an issue from multiple misinformation from multiple different help center calls and departments.

Water leaks at the front and rear of the storage unit and no heads up about the leaks so a ton of my belongings got wet, molded and ended with a significant loss. Notified manager about leak in front and brushed it off saying was from lifting the door when there was a clear hole in the front seal and the door doesn't fully close. How can my stuff be wet and moldy from lifting the door when I haven't been to the unit in months? Are the employees opening the door? I would have stored my stuff longer but doesn't seem like U-Haul cares about paying customers personal belongings and obviously doesn't need my money so taking my business elsewhere.
