U-Haul® Reviews
When I went to get the truck, someone had stolen the gas cap and they knew it the day before they made the reservation. "Oh, one thing I forgot to mention" So they stuffed a Walmart bag in the hole an taped it up. I asked the guy, How am I supposed to fill up the tank? He said, "Got any Tape?" I had to drive all the way across town to get another truck. 3 hours wasted.
I rented a truck from 56th and Good Hope. Do not go there if you're in a hurry. There was only one person working in the store when I purchased a TV box at 7:30 am and when I picked up the truck at 9:00 am the next day. The attendant explained to me that he was outside. I could not believe that no one in the store to assist customers. Because of this, after purchasing my tv box, I had to leave it in the store because I couldn't fit it in my vehicle. He sold me the box and when back outside I suppose. They are short staffed I suppose. Also, the day I came to pick up the truck, again the store was vacant. Once he came back in the store, he moved at the pace of a snail. I won't ever go back to that location. There was more, but I'll stop here. I don't want to write a thesis.
Rental process at location was used by app. Unacceptable time ( almost two hours) to get the truck and no one at the office to help. We had the moving help coming and gave ourselves plenty of time to get the truck to our location to load it but almost missed the helpers due to delay in getting the truck.
Having to drive 25 miles out of our way to pick up a truck that was not what we ordered (20' truck became 26') way in advance is unforgivable. When we got closer to home, we saw the nearby agent had MANY trucks, we cannot understand why this didn't work for us. Agent at pickup site had no useful knowledge.
The location for pick up was at a storage facility with a great selection of choices. The pick up process was quite easy and online too. To do a DIY type move locally, this is a good option. Mileage will be extra and adds to the cost plus gas of course. Rent your own truck and hire help for the moving part.
I went to the location to pick up the truck and my wife dropped me off. After waiting 25 minutes, they informed me the truck was at an another location, even though I went to the correct location. They simply did not have the truck. I had to run almost 2 miles to the other location since I did not have a car. And, the guy at the first location, who was by himself, was rude to me.
