Hector was very friendly, the site very clean.
AMY SStay far away form this location. Truck was absolutely disgusting. On top of that I see extra charges which I will address with them tomorrow. I regularly use moving trucks and this was by far the dirtiest and most disgusting truck I have rented. They seemed like they could care less. Stay far far away
George Sseems great
Anthony Mgreat service
Gerald CGreat service, highly recommended
JOSEPH RCould not drop at location 1 mile away- had to drive 10 miles to drop off
Dennis MAll went well with the rental, so I'm quite happy.
Phillip MThe guy who checked in our equipment, was not as friendly like the experience we had at the other location where we picked up. He did not greet us in a welcoming way. He basically said well. Did you list us to be the drop off location and where is your paperwork? We have to check that because if not, you have to drive to listed location , so right away, he turned us off. But anyways after he looked it up, he realize that it’s our designated drop off location, so I’m saying you should read first check and still make the people feel welcome big difference with the way you greet and talk to people so yeah from the other location in Leesburg Florida because they had that young man Caleb Walther who was so friendly made you feel like a valued customer you could definitely see and feel the difference of customer service.
WILLIAM CWhile I would recommend, when returning the trailer there was an employee outside with several vehicles in the return area. I sat in my truck for about 5 minutes and then had my son go inside the office to ask for support. They directed him outside to the individual that was consumed by something. When my son approached him, he asked if he worked here. He answered yes but was unsure about what to do with the trailer. We asked if we could back it in and put it away and he answered, if you can do it yes. It looked like he was new and unsure of what to do. We backed the trailer, disengaged it, took pictures and left. Anyway, looks like they need help with training and staff.
Manuel PWas easy to drop off
Ana MStaff was very nice. Really like the check-in security cards for each individual unit.
Matthew FNot at this time. Staff very friendly and helpful
VICKRAM MNice location with signage.
William DNothing. Ordered on-line. The trailer and paperwork were ready when I arrived. Paid and picked up trailer in less than 10 Minutes.
Robert WNo one came out to meet me at the drop off area.
craig jon time, transparent tracking via app, friendly staff
Rachel SU Haul associate met me as I pulled onto lot. Unhooked the trailer, inspected trailer and ran thru my return paperwork. I was on my way in 10 - 15 minutes Great Service
Charles RStaff was very polite and helpful.
Laura BI was charged for two days and only had the truck for 24 hours. I picked it up at 1. The gas was listed as full but the actual gas was 3/4 full. I took a picture and showed the office before I left . The truck was driven 9 mi miles. I returned it 24 Hours later. With more gas than I started with Plus the vehicle was on the property - why was I charge two days and the gas wrong. This is shameful. Profit is expected . At 1.09 a mile plus I got a storage unit why make a customer bitter on the first transactions. I hope this is corrected without me needing to advocate for customers service and honesty. Or is this a tactical profit business practice?
MARK MQuicker attendance at 7 am
Elys EThis location on ESR-64 was easy to find easy to drive in and out and very well designed for maneuvering.Excellent location!-extreamly helpful and friendly staff.
James MEasy out and easy return…
LOU Dwhat a joke. they charged me $25 for 'cleaning fee' when the truck was clearly empty and cleaned.
Fabrizio UEverything was tidy and in order. It was a seamless transaction.
Wain CI was ignored. So much so that the man who walked in behind me holding keys to return a truck just like i was, was approached and assisted before me. I walked back outside in the rain and worked with the app in the rain to complete the return.
LUZ AThis location is great. Just got a house and needed a small truck to move a few things. Also, unrelated I am telling everyone that is buying a home and needs a home inspection in the area to look up with Saving Grace Home Inspections https://www.savinggracehomeinspections.com/ He did an amazing job he is also a firefighter
Sean CI was never at that location. I was in the Sebring location. They were dropped off, but they were very helpful. They arrived in Indiana ahead of time. I’ve already got them unloaded and done. I would definitely do it again and the people in Lafayette were very nice very helpful and as far as the pads are, I turned most of those into the Sebring store. I only kept one batch and I’ve already turned those in. There’s too many in a truck I think anyhow thank you.
Sherry WCustomer service was great, equipment was clean and easy to use. Everyone was very helpful
Brooke CThe dolly and moving blankets are in the way. I had to break the seal on the dolly just so I could use the space. I have 2 dolly’s of my own, so it’s really frustrating to be charge for something I didn’t use bc it was in my way.
Robert DI was charged a $25 cleaning fee at dropoff. Truck was not very dirty at all not to mention it had been driven almost 800 miles and paid $1200 to rent it one way. I believe this is ridiculous that the renter should incur additional charges for very mo or cleaning. I would like to discuss this with someone in person or see this charged credited back to my credit card. Thank u
Brian JSuperb friendly service. Very knowledgeable staff. Very clean location.
Loren HUhaul overall has been the best company we have ever used! Every phone call we have placed and whomever we have spoken to has been wonderful!
Bill NAnother excellent example of quality service. I was in and out in less than 10 minutes. Very professional. Definitely recommend this location and service representative.
RICHARD JReally great experience!
THOMAS W | Overall ExperienceThey say that they inspect the trucks before they rent them out, which obviously was not a fact because inside the cab and the entire truck leaked water into it while we were traveling and ruined all of my stuff after paying almost $4000
Tricina RGood service, very timely and excellent attentive staff
CHester SThe 20' truck I rented is on its last legs. It drives like a boat trying to go upwind against a stiff breeze, wobbling and lurching around turns. The engine produces very little power, so it also delivers poor fuel economy. The worst thing about my experience is that I ended up with it twice on two separate rentals within a week! On the plus side, the staff at this location could not have been nicer or more helpful.
Jeffrey FVery good customer service in a new facility.
Tom DAll great just little pricey.
Pawel L | Overall ExperienceI wouldn't recommend them anymore! They hid the actual cost—it looked like it would be under $50, but on the day of pickup, the total came to nearly $400 just to use the smallest truck for a single day! Meanwhile, at Home Depot, that same truck is $160 with unlimited mileage for 24 hours! So, I'm sorry, but I wouldn't recommend them anymore!
Philipe BVery clean, quick service, in and out.
Paul BU Haul should inform the customers of the previous damage to the vehicle being rented. It shouldn’t be the customers responsibility to discover damages prior to a rental and then have to later dispute the charges.
John SGreat service, facility and people!
DAVID FNot charge $50 more than the estimated cost during booking. Insanity.
Mary LAfter a long distance trip to a new area, it was requested by the location help to pull the truck forward to a specific location.. Again, no inspection was done with the renter. Customer service seemed unwilling to help with a service that was paid for.
Laura TOnce again Hector and his team provide superior service!
TROY SEverything went fine with my booking and coming to pick up the truck but at the point of picking up the truck, there was a hidden insurance fee at the highest rate that I did not OK so we had to change that right off the top. And when my son-in-law went to return the truck which he filled the tank with the proper amount of gas as requested the gentleman that he returned the truck to tried to charge my son-in-law an additional $30 saying that the truck was not where it needed to be, but yet he did not go and actually check the mileage on the truck to see that we returned it back at the right level of gas as requested. Then the gentleman behind the counter said he didn’t have time to go check the fuel tank gauge said that they were busy which they were not eventually went and checked the gauge, and my daughter insisted on a receipt showing that we had returned it the way we were expected to return that truck then he argued with both my daughter and my son-in-law and reluctantly gave them a receipt… I don’t know his name. He was older than the younger kids that work there he had dark hair and glasses. He did not identify himself, but his lack of professionalism would make me not wanna go back to that particular U-Haul site for anything.. sorry I wish I could give a better review.
Michele RThank you
DANIEL BContainers have not shipped yet. Our UBox delivery and pick up were done by Carmen who provided a truly exceptional experience. She was very pleasant to work with, took great care in placing and retrieving the boxes to avoid damaging lawn or landscaping and handled manipulating the boxes with finesse and confidence. Very professional and her experience showed. The newer steel framed boxes were very sturdy and extra tie downs come in handy when the box is not fully packed.
Juergen LEasy check-in, clean equipment, rapid return. Terrific service.
rick aI selected no to Safe Move multiple times and yet when I picked up the trailer it was added on by the worker without saying anything. $8 waisted. It makes me think they get commission off of it.
KEITH LClean and convenient!!
MARLENE M | First ImpressionsExcellent experience
Rich CIt’s my second rental here everything was so easy
YAN MThe place looks better than most.
John PHector and his team are great! Love this location and level of customer service!
TROY S | First ImpressionsI am extremely disappointed with the way my U-Haul reservation was handled, and I am requesting that this matter be resolved immediately. I arrived at the U-Haul location during the hours it was listed as open on Google Maps, but the location was actually closed. I had to call U-Haul to make my payment and receive an access code. The code did not work, which required me to call again and spend even more time trying to resolve the issue. I was then redirected to a different U-Haul location. When I arrived, I showed the employee my existing reservation and explained the situation. I was told that I had to pay again because this was a franchise location. I had no reasonable choice at that point, so I paid again. The replacement truck was also located approximately 20 miles farther away, resulting in additional mileage charges and further inconvenience. What should have been a normal truck pickup took approximately 2 hours because of U-Haul’s location, access, reservation, and payment problems. This was completely outside of my control and was caused by incorrect information and failures in U-Haul’s process. I am requesting: 1. A full refund of my first payment, since I was unable to obtain the truck from that location. 2. A refund or credit for the additional mileage and costs caused by being redirected to a location approximately 20 miles away. 3. Compensation/credit for the 2 hours of time I lost because of these issues. 4. A review of the reservation and the actions of both locations so this does not happen to other customers. I paid for a service and expected the truck to be available at the reserved location. Instead, I was forced to make additional calls, travel to another location, pay a second time, drive farther, and lose approximately two hours of my time. I believe it is only fair that U-Haul take responsibility for the inconvenience and additional expenses this situation caused. Please review my reservation and payments and confirm the refund and compensation you will be providing. Thank you. I look forward to your prompt resolution.
David KGreeted immediately and was done and out the door in five minutes. Fast efficient. Very appreciative
Joseph MHector was very helpful and accommodating.
JEFF SExelent
jorge cGreat experience!
Kathryn DSuper easy drop off. Great attendant.
Thomas OThe air conditioning didn't work
Ronald SSo much more accommodating than the places in Illinois.
Todd LOlder Uhaul, but we had a short travel distance. A little difficult to locate after hours, but we found it. Very convenient and great hours. Staff was very helpful.
jeffrey bVery impressive location with not only the size and availability of trucks and trailers, but the cleanliness of the front office space is very nice! In addition to the friendly staff from the front counter to the help with attaching the trailer to the vehicle. I will continue to bring my business to this location!
Chad CExcellent customer service.
Myles WLazy staff
Richard M | Overall ExperienceEverything was great with the exception of me picking up my truck with 3/4 of a tank of gas. I filled it back to 3/4 of a tank (I took pictures of the 3/4 tank when I picked it up) and got charged $12.50 for gas for not filling it up. That was my only negative experience. Its all good but I feel sorry for anyone that isn't technologically "with it". Many of us are starting to resent the mainstream APP only experience with everything. Guess that train has left the station and ain't coming back but as the end of the baby boomers, we recognize the importance of businesses being able to function if for some reason you didn't have wifi and that we see ALL big national businesses moving to APP dependent business......you guys should think about how you'd run your business if wifi were down. It COULD happen! No one seems to prepare for that inevitability these days. Whether it be natural disaster, war, whatever......there WILL be times when you cannot rely on wifi and electronics. End of rant; overall good experience but wasn't happy about being charged for gas and wasn't provided in the first place
RENEE SWe arrived for drop off on Sunday at 4:43. Pulled up and stopped where the sign said and waited like it said. No one came out so at 4:51 my husband headed toward the front door and as he walked up to it a male employee literally locked the door in his face and walked away. Ok maybe this wouldn’t be a big deal, but when I downloaded the app for self-drop off it would not recognize my reservation number and it took over 45 minutes of calling and being transferred to different departments to get help so I could actually drop it off. Moving is already so stressful. To be locked out in our face before business hours were over was just the crappy icing on an already crappy day.
Jessica FThe location was very nice and had plenty of trucks to rent. The truck we rented however had a check engine light on when we initially turned the truck on and the trucks roll up doors passenger side tensioner was broken so it made lifting the roll up door difficult.
Evan MThis location is awesome, easy pick up and return.
JOHN EDiana Y was very helpful explaining everything. She was pleasant and knowledgeable. We rented a van and reserved a unit for the following Sunday. Unfortunately the unit was taken and we had to take one on the second floor instead of the first floor. Again, Diana was very helpful and apologetic. She made the inconvenience not so inconvenient. Thank you.
chris l | First ImpressionsWhen I closed out one unit, it closed out my other unit also. I had so sign back up again. They were going to charge me insurance again. I have to go back up there to get it straightened back out. Hopefully, I can get into the facility w/out setting off any alarms. Every time that I try to get in my card doesn’t work so I have to go get help. I’m very frustrated.
Michelle M | First ImpressionsHector is awesome, Juan and Diana and Nathan are an amazing team! Wow what an amazing location, incredible space and units!
Troy S | Overall ExperienceVery nice facility and helpful staff!
Gregory J | Overall ExperienceVery nice new facility. Access was a little confusing and on the app, I can’t add codes to Apple wallet. Other than that all good
SETH H | Online Move InLiked the rent a truck get a month free. Made it easy to move from the old storage and saved a few dollars
