1-star Google reviewTrelver L.6 years ago
This place is NOT SECURE. Our RV was broken into even though they had cameras and gates. Their cameras were not working. And they DENIED any liability. They REFUSED TO PAY FOR DAMAGES AND STOLEN ITEMS because they said it is not covered unless an employee had committed the crime. DO NOT RENT HERE unless you want to have your things stolen. Then when we moved out and canceled our contract they neglected to actually do that and continued to charge our credit card.

New girl working is very rude, was rude to the customer ahead of me and was very snippy with me, very shocking since every employee has always been so friendly
1-star Google reviewJenny4 years ago
Rented a 10ft moving van. It broke down a block away when I called to tell them I was told it's MY Problem. I blow up. I called the number they gave me it took over 4 hours for someone to show up in a old pickup. My friend showed up at the same time & fixed a loose battery cable so I could drive it back to Uhaul.. I was told my C.C would be credited back Not Yet!! I did have 2 storage units for 8 months, I've cleaned those out. Never Again!!

I won't recoment getting storage from this guys.

If I could this place a half star actually not even a star I would they are terrible at least the people at the desk. They lied to the other uhaul center we were at about the trailers lights being out and they called their boss and the boss said they had lights and then they wouldn’t accept my girlfriends drivers license because “there’s too many fakes going around” and they said it was “policy”

Almost made it to three Star , but lost out at Contract Closure. MAKE SURE you've quadrupled checked your receipt before leaving this location. My experience is even if you return the gas back at the appropriate level, They charged me a Fill-up fee and feul service fee. I had to call Customer support and escalate. Thankfully they rectified the stores error and issued out a refund post haste.

Went to go grab something and the sliding doors were all open the keypads weren't working. If you value anything I wouldn't store it here especially at this location. Oh and the one time I need to use the restroom that door's broken too. Just what I needed to get my butt in gear and get my stuff out of there. Overpriced to boot.
1-star Google reviewLeslie G.12 years ago
This was the worst experience I've had in the 10 years I've been using U-Haul, and considering the last time we used them an employee backed into my step dad's car, denied it and laughed at us until we called the police and they were forced …

Quick and simple for pick up & drop off. The location is easy to exit & enter. It was hot out today, and the air conditioning in the van worked great and kept us comfortable.

The only problem I had was that the truck was EXTREMELY LOUD, DEAFENING, and UNBEARABLE!!!! I ended up buying EAR PLUGS at Walmart, but there the noise problem was only on the driver's side!!! WOW

Rented a trailer and ended up being greeted by a newer guy named Jake. He was the most helpful in helping me rent a trailer and he personally made the experience better than previous staff.
