I find it appalling how much data you require to rent a vehicle. It felt like the priority was to get my personal information. I found the whole experience lacking in humanity. I will do my utmost to never rent from UHaul again.

The after hour check out could use some improvement on the app. It kept freezing up when trying to locate by GPS. The people at Walters Automotive are very helpful and friendly.

Better customer service. Horrible company was charged 5 times for my rental. Blame was on Uhaul's computer system. Just terrible. Lucky I checked my bank account and caught the thieves.

Drop off quick & simple. Just know your location & slow down to approach, as a busy road. Refuel the truck & sweep it clean, first. Walt is friendly & helpful. I would recommend him & use again.

The folks at the uhaul location were helpful and nice. However, the uhaul “contactless” check in and website were horrible. Couldn't log in, repeated error message “your session has expired”. Called uhaul help line and they were also not very helpful.

I showed up after driving 8 hours to be told that the auto transporter that I had reserved (and was told was available) was not there. The representative at the Santa Rosa location told me that I would have to call and make arrangements to find another unit. That is not my responsibility I replied and told him that he should be making the arrangements. After spending over 30 minutes on the phone we were told that there was a unit in San Francisco. I asked who was going to go get it. The young man said I had to. There is no way I was going to drive another 2 hours in traffic to pick up the unit and than another 1 1/2 back to where we were picking up the vehicle to be towed. Another 15 minutes on the phone and one was located in Petaluma, but they were closing in 30 minutes. It is a minimum of a 20 minute drive in no traffic. Fortunately, we were able to make it with 5 minutes to spare. The whole time that we were on hold, the young man kept playing on his cell phone. Customer service is non-existent at this location. I was expected to handle the issues myself. The young man should have never told me to call the U-Haul number to make other arrangements. He should have taken control of the situation and made the phone calls and whatever it would take to remedy this situation.

The technology for checking in online was terrible. It required modifications to my settings on my phone, and was not intuitive at all. As I was struggling and becoming obviously frustrated with the processes, I finally had to ask Walt Jr. to get involved, which he reluctantly did. Ive rented from this location numerous times and have had to deal with similar experiences.
