Thank you for the great service, it was fast and easy.
JAMES HERLOThe dolly was already loose in the truck and not checked before I left and so I was mistakenly charged when returned. Also, the check in process was long. The attendant mistakenly entered the wring fuel amount and I was mistakenly charged again. Eventually, the incorrect charges were refunded.
Carlos ArreolaVery professional
Nassim BouktitThe workers are amazing
ATIEH ILAYYANReally very nice people
Andres EcheverriVehicle smelled like marijuana and cigars, when leaving noted that the gas gauge was just above 1/2 despite being told it would be at 3/4 upon pickup, this cost additional cost in gas so that I wouldn’t be charged additionally by U-Haul.
Jacklyn NestmannBien
JOHNNY MONTESDEOCAHidden fees that aren’t explained until after the fact.
Kassandra ProsperoQuick and professional service.
Miroslaw WronskiYou guys a super friendly and accommodating, keep doing the same thing. You got a customer for life
Jose VarelaI had a question and attempted to call the location a couple times. Could not get through to a person at the facility.
Frank KayDON'T CHANGE A THING!
Maureen MaleckiStaff was very friendly and responsive to my needs. Van I rented was very clean and smooth driving.
Jose VarelaHonestly, I don't think you could do anything surface is great. All the workers are polite. The equipment is always good. Change something if it's going perfect always have good service at this location.
Sam MorabitoGreat service! I never rented a trailer before and didn't know what to expect. It was seamless, quick easy out and really helpful assistance from the desk and in the lot hooking up the trailer (and explaining)!
Steven StallardUpon returning my vehicle I was charged a $9,5 refueling charge, which should not have been charged. When I went into the location with photo evidence that the fuel was where it was supposed to be I was immediately accused of having done something wrong and that it was somehow still my fault. Love going into a business, giving them my money and then being told how everything I did with that business caused them trouble. Suffice it to say, I will not be using this location EVER again. Unfortunately, there are not many options for renting trucks and vans as I would start to consider other options if I could.
Daniel HouleFound debris in the cracks and crevices
david fisherNice rep at check in, clean new truck.
KYLE STEEDGreat service both on the receiving end and the drop off!
Robert BuchholzMike was super efficient and got me rolling right away. Drop off was the same way. These guys got this place running like a machine.
FRANK GOETZThe location and staff were great. The vehicle, although brand new, was in very poor condition, obviously just put back together after a significant crash. The drivers side of the vehicle was taped and riveted back together, the drivers side door wasn't bolted firmly to the frame - leaking air and rain inside. This vehicle really needs to be pulled from the fleet and sent for rework.
Thomas BuntonThe truck I rented smelled awful. The person who cleaned it told me they "sprayed it down real good." When in reality they hung about a dozen air fresheners throughout the van. I didn't have time to argue, so I just accepted my fate. Terrible experience
Steven KnappThe truck was ready when I arrived. Fast and easy pick up and drop off.
Ana RubioI could not figure out where the gas tank was for the Ford cargo van. Had to call, and then ask the young man who answered the phone to find out from someone else, since he didn't know, to get the answer. Interesting place for the gas cap!
Claudette LedesmaThe staff at the facility was accommodating and had a great attitude!
MARK GOBRAILfelt overcharged,had small 10 truck end up costing 70 plus 15
WILLIAM ruizRien
Myron ByrdEverything was great, no need for improvement
thomas tadinTruck warmed up. Friendly associates. Gas meter and paper reference were wrong.
Javier ValenciaStaff was ill informed. The brakes were bad on the truck and the condition was overall poor.
Abdulrehman HaleemThe staff went above and beyond to make sure my experience was great!
Veleka PrinceGreat service as always!
Christopher CarterI've had nothing but good results at this location. I've rented storage unit and ten truck rentals the last 15 yrs
Elvis DelgadoKeep doing you, staff was very kind and helpful. I would suggest making sure auto transport straps were loose/not double looped. Overall, would definitely do business with again
Charles WilcoxKeep up the good Work and happy holidays
enrique villaNot much; worked well!
Adam WebsterVeronica and Mike and the co workers are amazing Always smiling
Salvador SantiagoEveryone was helpful, the only recomendation I see is to update the pictures of the vehicles on the app.
Arturo MoraThe staff is friendly and very helpful. I own a small business and only get my rentals at this location. Always a smooth and easy transaction.
Jaime vasquezHave more large trucks available.
Ernestine GarwackiThey are the best franchise
Salvador SantiagoThe after-hours return process is not super clear. The website says there is a location barcode on the north side of the building that you're supposed to scan, but I couldn't find it. Phone was low on battery but fortunately I was able to download the app and complete the return that way, but it still took longer than I would have liked.
Kevin LangAll staff very helpful and friendly including manager Mr Michael and after noon staff
veronica gibson | Premières impressionsUnderstaffed.. unfortunately. The employees who are there are very helpful , patient and kind. Also why require 24 hour notice for access to a Ubox when every time Ubox never moved to be accessed. Happened in Austin repeatedly ( thought it was just that location) and happened in Chicago.
Tina Gonzalez | Premières impressionsYou do not have enough staff to meet demand. I was in line for 30 mins to check in plus the actual process. It was packed with people. The clerks could not keep up 1 customer after another and constant 10 people in line. They were very professional and tried to do best they could. Would not recommend because it's awfully busy and require to dedicate 1-2 hours that I do not have.
KARLA MONTES DE OCA | Premières impressionsExcellent staff, professional, helpful and friendly,
Gere Perry | Expérience généraleThe ONLY thing I would change would be the access hours for the storage facility. Other than that, no issues.
Alberto Lopez | Expérience généraleYou need more people in the store or on the phones. Training for phone calls would help too. No one should be left on hold for 30 min without as much as a "sorry for the inconvenience" checkin. This happened multiple times too. And what's with dodging calls entirely and sending to UHaul customer care who just has to do the same thing. Units were fine. Hours were fine. Customer care was not.
STEVEN JENKINS | Expérience généraleBien
Ngoc Phan | Premières impressionsIt would be helpful if the lights did not turn off after a few seconds in the storage facility forcing you to walk down the hallway to turn it back on.
Ayomide Ogunsola | Expérience généraleThe young lady who helped me was phenomenal
Dominic Mc Moore | Premières impressionsEverything it’s fine thank you for your help
Anna Bernal | Expérience généraleThank for the help so appreciate .
Francisco Malave | Expérience généraleEverything was fine but you need elevators.
RANDY FOLEY | Expérience généraleMostly friendly staff. Tue truck was a newer model. Storage was nice and clean. It is close to a terminal that goes direct to O'Hare, which was very convenient.
Ricardo Lozano Martinez | Premières impressionsThey are very professional helpful friendly and the facility is well-maintained. I had absolutely no problems at all and I actually did recommend a friend not too long ago
Angel Velez | Expérience généraleYour crew at this location was great. Nice hire.
ELIESER DEJESUS | Expérience généraleCounter person even came up the ramp to facilitate load in-both people great that day!
DONNA PAWLUS | Premières impressionsVery very clean. Great workers
ELIESER DEJESUS | Premières impressionsThe manager Mike as well as the rest of the staff Keyomi, Lou etc go out of their way to make sure you have all your moving needs in place. As far as the moving truck, packing supplies and storage unit that is an appropriate size for your belongings. I highly recommend this facility. And feel the security makes a woman who needs to go into a unit at any time of the day feel safe. Staff Keep up the great customer service at the Portage Park location.
SUZETTE KOSTRZEWA | Expérience généraleVery helpful stuff at this Montrose location I recommend!
Blagovest Tanev | Expérience généraleStaff were so nice. Environment was so sane. Properties was so safe and secure. Staff went above and beyond to ensure I was properly satisfied. Than you Uhaul staff on Portage Park. You all are wonderful and the best.
OLASUNKANMI OMOTOSHO | Expérience généraleIt was a young lady that was there along with a young man named Mike they were beyond very helpful and work the customer five stars for each one of them!

Rosamary Anderson | Expérience généraleGreat place to store some furniture and miscellaneous
Eligio Jimenez | Premières impressionsThanks guys great service 👍
Jaun Rivera | Expérience généraleThey always was good and helpful. Even got bandaids twice for me.
donna miceli | Expérience généraleI have been using Uhaul for over 25 yrs. I love u haul
donna miceli | Premières impressionsLarger sizes should be available. There are no 10x10 and 6' is not as tall as most storage facilities.
Funmilola Macaulay | Premières impressionsVery Helpful
Henrietta Hall | Premières impressionsEverything was great. The staff was great. I highly recommend it.
DAVID McNamara | Expérience généraleI purchased a storage unit, the initial employee who set up my account was AMAZING! I was on auto pay-had the storage paid successfully until March 2022 which is when I decided I will take out my belongings. I spoke to a woman who removed me off auto payment, she understood that I was closing my account, she advised me to come in get my things and we can take care of payment. I still had a few questions so I called two days after my billing date, a gentlemen I spoke with was so rude to me, he ends up arguing with me about billing. I reiterated that the money didn't matter, I'm trying to understand how the process works for closing a storage unit---he still wants to argue with about the MONEY?!?! I was a good standing patient on AUTO PAY! My point is treating me less than a great customer is unacceptable especially in customer service. After our call I was charged for the Unit and a late fee after (conversations recorded correct?) I specially asked to settle my bill upon my arrival because i was still confused regarding the process of closing a unit. Which was never answered!!! BTW The audacity! Also, that same day I was also locked out of my storage that same day-this isn't over.
HANNAH SAID | Expérience généraleI would have preferred one without steps, but their friendly customer service made up the difference.
Gere Perry | Premières impressionsStaff was very helpful whenever I had questions or had trouble getting access to the storage room.
juan herrera | Expérience généraleEs un servicio muy eficiente me encantó el personal muy amable lo recomiendo ,E usado esta bodega antes la recomiendo es excelente
Emily Galvez | Premières impressionsVery clean facility with good accessibility. We had trouble resolving at least two issues (over a 7 month period) via telephone and emails. Emails were unanswered. Tried calling multiple times at different times and calls were unanswered, eventually bounced to call center in AZ, where staff referred us back to facility, which we could not contact other than showing up in person. This was difficult as we were out of town, and was a frustrating experience. Other than that, the facility met our needs.
RONALD C BATEMAN | Expérience généraleThe staff was wonderful!! I truly appreciate them.
Luz Rosado | Premières impressionsI can't complain too much the location was very clean, i would just recommend for the lights on the timers to be on longer we were in the storage unit and the lights kept going off on us. I would also recommend better signage on truck returns we ended up going to the wrong side to return the truck and had to go all the way around to bring it in the right side. When I was returning the storage unit another family did the same thing so I'm sure it's an on going issue
Bianca Rodriguez | Expérience généraleI love you guys and thank you!
Angel Velez | Premières impressionsI've been with U - Haul for many years I highly recommend them the staff is very helpful in assisting their customers and very polite and very helpful on any accomodations customers need I highly recommend U - Haul and will continue using them in the future I want to thank them for all their services 🤗
anna rivera | Expérience généraleThe staff was rude locked me out of my unit 2 times and couldn't explain why. When I made a complaint they raised my rent so I closed my unit and went some where else
MICHELLE ESPINO | Expérience généraleThe worst experience ever ! ! ! When I made the reservation I was told I 'd get a dolly but when I got there ... I was told with almost maniacally by the man that they didn't have any ! Like he got some sort of thrill out of it ! But that's peanuts compared with the out right lie that I'd get a locker on the first floor I'm almost 62 and am on SSI with a misaligned spine , high blood pressure and diabetes. I But when I got there I was told it was on the 2' ND floor and would have to c arry my boxes and bins up one flight,across a tier,down the stairs,up a flight of stairs and down another tier ! I had to go to another facility who accommodate d me professional y and without a problem. I am filing a complaint with the BBB and with the Illinois attorney general office for fraud not to mention the appropriate socal media not to use your corporation for anything what's so ever
Anthony Curtis | Premières impressionsI was not ever told that there is a few for 24 hour storage so when I got there it took about 30 minutes to even get to the point where I had access to the storage. I have an upstairs unit and the ramp up is impossible. Spent over an hour trying to get my UHaul and trailer back down off of it. I had to use the restroom in the facility and someone was there listening to music, sounded like a party. It was overall just way too much for me.
Montoria Miller | Online Move Ingreat service, affordable rates, easy access. We used two storage units for a few months while staging/selling a house, and it was convenient and quick.
Nora Vogel | Expérience généraleThe worker Treavon Robinson was Awesome, he was very helpful I was really pleased with his service, and I thank & Appreciate his work
MONIQUE JACKSON | Premières impressionsOffice was well staffed yet there was still a line for check in. My person was very helpful in changing my original reservation to a larger unit, although there was some confusion about whether I indeed had a reservation to begin with. Facility was clean and provided multiple carts for unloading/loading.
Kim Bateman | Online Move InExcelente servicio al cliente
Moises Chirino | Expérience généraleConstance was very helpful and understanding. Merci.
John Grosse | Premières impressionsGreat service.and excellent staff.
Juan Camacho | Expérience généraleGreat staff. Evertime I walk in here its busy but im always taking care of. Great spot to do business.
miguel smith | Expérience généraleThe trucks are dangerous. The ramp is dangerous, the storage units are tiny and overpriced. And the lock you're forced to buy are terrible.
Leticia Hargrove | Premières impressionsThere was a single employee present and a long wait to be helped. Once I was assisted during checkout the employee was so rushed that he couldn't process my transaction properly. He offered no information on how to access my unit. I attempted to access on my own immediately after being checked out and I was unable to access any of the doors. I returned to ask why and found out he never processed the transaction. I then had to wait again for the single employee to come back from 'hooking up a trailer' which was partly true, the smoke break being the other.. Then this employee was unable to read credit card numbers on his own, I had to repeat phone numbers and card numbers repeatedly over 10 mins for him to finally be able to actually process the purchase of the unit. I then had to ask him multiple questions on how to access, where the unit was located, etc. as he offered no detail proactively.
nick kelley | Premières impressionsThank you for having places like this.it was a great help for me thank you.
Emily Galvez | Expérience généraleI explained my storage needs to a young lady who attended to me, in which I let her know and showed her one of the bikes i needed to store. for one there weren't any storage space that could accommodate my need, except for on the top floor of the building and the rest were to small. She had told me that the space I finally settled on only had four steps leading to the space, when it was actually 4 flights of stairs making it totally impossible for me to get my items to the space since there aren't any elevators. Seems to me she needs to understand the layout of the facility a bit more, Info was deceptive and I left very dissatisfied.
Victor Batie | Premières impressionsThis facility has an extremely poor layout. In order to access the unit, you have to climb a super steep ramp that ends in a tiny landing. Good luck getting a moving truck up there. How is there no elevator?!? I rented a unit and then immediately moved out.
DAVID PIGNOTTI | Expérience généraleVeronica was very polite and helpful. She even gave me a water bottle after I asked if there was a Coke machine. (I was extremely thirsty after moving everything into the facility on a warm, humid day.) My only suggestion for the facility would be to put in a little ramp of concrete to cover the big bump at the threshold between the parking lot and the indoor storage facility. There's a big bump whether you go through the large garage door or through the small door next to it. This makes it difficult to push a fully loaded cart over that bump and into the building. Otherwise, it was a smooth experience!
Steve Lindo | Premières impressionsI went to drop off my stuff on the storage only to be blocked off by all the Trucks, so I had no access to the drive up ramp not only that but, there was a lock on my storage unit that I did not have the key to so I couldn't take anything in it even if I wanted to. Had to come back the next morning to unload.
David Zeno | Premières impressionsPoor experience never renting there again
luis gonzalez | Expérience généraleGreat staff
Catherine Marek | Expérience généraleTruck and storage was helpful and easy going!
Jessica Velez | Premières impressionsWorst experience I've ever had with a business in my life.
Maria Stephens | Premières impressionsThe service was very excellent and prompt they were very helpful I really like the staff
anna rivera | Premières impressionsMy unit was infested with rodents that were alive in my shoe boxes and ultimately came out of clothes that were in bags once I emptied the bags at home... horrible and terrible as well as traumatic.
Manny Munoz | Expérience généraleThe night time manager was pleasant , he made sure I was taken care off .
gabriel gonzalez | Premières impressionsWish this center could be open till 9pm
darcy woelffer | Expérience généraleStorage room is a joke No elevator If you guys are going to give some for free dont give out the worse room there is I will move my things out as soon as possible Doors dont open Escalator very

GLen Hamilton | Premières impressionsI love coming here! When I am in need of a vehicle to help me move, I can count on them!& the customer service is awesome! They don't mind giving you a helping hand when you need it. I sure Recommend
Jojo Dominguez | Premières impressionsBryan was good help
jonnathon gibson | Premières impressionsWhen I was going through hard times to pay my rental unit the Manager Michael Rodriguez worked with me by making arrangements to make my payments
JESSICA VALENTINO | Expérience généraleI felt that my belongings we're safe and secure at this facility. They installed many new securities since I moved my stuff in. It worked.
LINDA SMIZINSKI | Expérience généraleI loved it. It would be very helpful to have a ramp for the storages above the 1st floor level.
yve marketing | Expérience généraleVery nice employees, but is too slow.
cesar gamero | Expérience généraleWorst experience! Only one person staffed and over 7 groups waiting. Waited over 45 minutes for storage unit that I had ordered on the app. Employee was incompetent of uhaul system & unprofessional.
Kevin Falk | RéservationWhile this facility is convenient, the spaces are rather small for the price. the low ceiling make it difficult for a person of my height, 5' 10" to manuver around the space.
