Honestly got to deal with the most helpful salesman who was quick at checking out the truck, and the check in process was quick and easy, good folks down there at farmville sporting goods, used the truck for what I needed and they helped every step

Overall Online Experience: 2/5 Navigating through U-Haul's online platform proved to be overly complex and ineffective. From reserving to drop off, the process felt frustrating and time-consuming, to the point where I had to go to a 2nd location to get a truck, because there was no option to pick up the reserved truck at the first location and they were closed. Regrettably, this frustrating experience casts doubt on the likelihood of using U-Haul's services again in the future.

These guys were so disrespectful not listening to what I had to say. I paid a whopping $120 and haven't heard from Noone yet.

Farmville Sporting goods was awesome. The U-Haul company first had me at Bula Fiji Mart at 1605 West Third St. FarmVille, Va. with a phone number of : 434-808-0760. I was scheduled to pick the truck up at 9 am and at 9:30 they had never opened the store. I called FarmVille Sporting goods and he was extremely helpful helping me to cancel the first rental and to rent the truck. I would never recommend Bula Figi mart and as far as I am concerned, U-Haul should take away those privileges to rent the stuff for U-Haul. I cannot say enough nice things about FarmVille Sporting goods. They are a keeper!!!

It's very unsettling to wait inside a gun store to rent a truck. The sign on the door warns: "No masks allowed. This is NOT a gun-free zone! Guns SAVE lives." I signed up for a contactless rental, but the salesman said he had to do it in person. I had to wait 15 minutes while he sold a pistol to one couple and helped another customer with a small assault gun. He was actual quite nice and helpful, but the shop-owner's policies and the store itself were disturbing. I will not go back there again, ever.

The worst customer service I have ever experienced. Disgusting backwoods drop off location. RUDE unintelligible staff. Charged me for mileage when contract stated unlimited miles. Don't worry, I got my money refunded. Select another location for drop off. This is just a filthy pawn shop that smells heavily of gasoline inside who don't care about returning U-Haul trucks or customer service. What more could you expect from a lame pawn shop.

My problem is that my mileage from location was farther that expected so I was charged extra 30 miles

This was not a pleasant experience. While the location was perfect I discovered when I visited this location early the truck did not have the blankets I ordered or the 2 dollies. This location did not want to be bothered with helping me. I drove across town and found only 5 blankets and 1 dolly at a different dealer. After 5 phone calls I finally got the Virginia Field Manager who promptly got me the 60 blankets I ordered and another dolly. The equipment worked fine and all the UHaul reps tried to be helpful. But 5 calls to resolve the issue? The dealer at this location just did not care.

The only issue I had was we were charged for 7 gallons of fuel when we actually had more fuel in truck then it had when we picked up the truck. But I contacted uhaul customer service and they refunded the money charged. I was happy with the service.

The location closed at 2:00pm on Saturday. For a one-day rental such as mine this is not practical, and apparantly resulted in a late fee being assessed even though I had discussed when I would bring it back at the time of pick up. There was no menton of a late fee at the time but it is in the contract which I did not read (by email) until later.

I ordered a 15’ truck and got a 26’ truck. This was not a plus. I’ve had trouble with big trucks and really didn’t want that truck, but we had to do our move this weekend. No one informed us that a 15’ truck was impossible. Most of the trip was ok, but I needed to pick up a new table from a furniture store and couldn’t navigate the truck thru the lot. I was nervous the entire time, and driving as much as I had to in that truck was an unnecessary stress. I’m having heart surgery this coming week…I don’t need that kind of help.

My experience was good. I do think that the reciept should be given to you when you bring the truck back. I did receive an email though that had my info on it the next day. Otherwise everything went well.

Didn’t have the vehicle I reserved and had two days to let me know, decided not to and waited until I came in to do the mobile pickup to tell me. Also did not have the equipment I requested, same deal as above. I didn’t mind the changes, I was upset about the lack of communication. I also reported the cab and truck back were extremely dirty and was then charged a cleaning fee for the mess I was given when I picked it up.

Our first order had to be canceled because the dolly was not where it was supposed to be. We are very thankful for the people at Farmville Sporting Goods for helping us cancel the original order and make this rental possible!

The location was closed when I dropped off the truck. The key drop box was a little hard to find. If another truck had not already been parked there, I would not have known it was a uhaul location.

Nowhere online did the inside floor dimensions for the 10' truck I rented include any awareness of the lost intrusion space due to the inside wheel well caps and the protective cover for the fuel filler pipe. This messed us up in being able to fit all the furniture we had to move. Had to stuff some of it crammed into the wife's car.

I am very upset with U-Haul. I was overcharged for mileage. When it was never explain to me that I could not go beyond 30 miles renting the truck. That was after I already paid for 133 miles. Someone needs to get in contact with me from this company. Because I paid an additional $147 or 148 and I only drove 199 MI. Which means you also hold me some money back
