1-star Google reviewFrancisco V.4 months ago
​I had an incredibly frustrating experience with this U-Haul location. I reserved a 15' truck three days in advance at the Ed Carey Dr. location, only to be told by an employee named Marcus that I had to go to a different 3rd-party location because they supposedly didn't have my truck. ​When I arrived at the second location, there was no one there to give me the keys. I called the Ed Carey store back and spoke to the manager, Joseph, who was extremely rude.

DO NOT GO HERE, I REPEAT.. DO NOT GO HERE!!! Hi friends, I'm just trying to save you time, energy, and a major headache. I was going to use U-Haul for all my storage needs, I actually did. After months of looking for a specific storage unit I praised the Lord when one became available at U-Haul (specifically this one off of Ed Carey). Happy as can be, I reserved my unit, U-Haul had my confirmation and card on file, the date to move in was set, life was good... Or so I thought. Boy did U-Haul do me dirty.

Joseph Rosas - General Manager/Owner has a lot to learn about Customer Service. Very unfriendly and overall rude attitude. This represents poor leadership and ultimately trickles down to affect staff behaviors and the overall general …

Terrible service!!!! If you go there, know your business is not appreciated AND check the truck they provide you because the brake lights were disconnected on ours. Gives UHaul a very bad reputation

They refuse to make room around there LP Tank to where a Motorhome cant get close enough to get gas. What a waste of company resources.

The same method, applied to the four and five star reviews. Most movers are praised for the same handful of things, so what is missing here is often as telling as what is present.

Thank you Mary and team for the U-Boxes! Mary just picked up the 3 boxes that we had. So friendly and courteous with a high level of professionalism and enthusiasm for a job well done. We will definitely use them in the future should the need arise.

5-star Google reviewRene R.a month ago
OUTSTANDING customer service. Clean location and the gentleman that assisted us was very responsive. In and out in less than ten minutes.
5-star Google reviewShannon T.a year ago
I currently have U-Boxes stored at this location. I went there today to put some things in, and take some things out. I did not give notice as it was a spur of the moment thing. Since they were able to accommodate my rude lack of notice, they did and immediately brought my boxes to me. Anthony and Armando were both very kind and understanding. I appreciate their help today, and feel that people like this are an asset to U-Haul. Thanks!

We really appreciate your positive feedback. It's fantastic to hear you had a great experience with us. Thanks for choosing our U-Haul location!

5-star Google reviewAlex C.2 years ago
I give this Ed Carey location a 5 star only because of the employee Anthony, he went out of he’s way to help me troubleshoot why my trailer lights weren’t working probably. Not a lot of people would have gone the extent he did in order for me to leave with the trailer safety. This man deserves a raise!
