    Sonnet helped us with the car trailer we rented. She made the process fast and easy. We rented the trailer for 4 hours to bring a car from Pyuallup, we brought it back and returning it was not a problem. Made the procedure clear how to put back the trailer, and even helped take off the chains and with guidance.

    Light missing after install. UHaul refuses to replace.

    Had wiring done at UHaul on Rainier Ave in Renton. Took our new RV on a road trip. Coming down Snoqualmie Pass I learned my trailer had no brakes. Almost caused a massive accident. Modified trip so UHaul Pasco on Court Street could resolve problem. Mike, the technition, told me that the other UHaul had mangled the install. Done completely wrong. Blew 4 fuses on my Honda. It was arching sparks under the car. I left my Honda there and used a UHaul truck to take our trailer to Bend Oregon. Came back to Pasco to pick up car. I was told problem was fixed. I tested it before I left. Trailer brakes did not work. I told the manager it was not fixed. She told me I was wrong. She went out with her test kit to show me that I was wrong. She actually slammed the register shut and was quite harsh. She discovered I had no brakes with her test kit. Her attitude softened at that point. She opened the hatch to find that the back compartment of the Honda Pilot was torn apart and the tools were still in my car. I asked for the truck to take my trailer back to Renton. She refused as it was apparently UHaul's policy to send customers on the road with no brakes. We were forced to take another day off of work (my wife) and spent another day in Pasco while they tried to fix. The next day they fixed it; however, my trailer main fuse blows every time I plug in to the Honda. I was told It is my brand new trailer that is broken and not their install issue. We left and pulled over in Vernita WA rest stop. I discovered that my left tail light assembly was missing. I have a video of the tail light when I dropped off the car. It was missing when we left or it fell off shortly after leaving because it was put back on improperly. I sent pictures to UHaul an hour after we left. I was told it was not their problem. I have spent two days attempting to get a hold of management at corporate level. I've spent an hour on hold and have talked to no one. Moral of this story, avoid UHaul at all costs.

    Good customer service! Geno is awesome!

    Corporate is not the best with communication... we made a last-minute reservation and told them to let the store know that we would be there right at closing time and of course they didn't. BUT... The five stars is based on the store- Geno took care of us as we strolled in two minutes after closing, we appreciate being taken care by a staff member who is willing to go the extra mile for a customer with a circumstance.

    Short Summary. Better find another place for your hitch install. Bad customer service and incompetent. Failed to notify me part not ready, lost my exhaust pipe hanger in the install and cannot follow the wiring instructions. First when I scheduled the hitch install and went there, only to know my parts is not ready and that the General Manager is not their and GM will call me back tomorrow to reschedule. Waste 1 hour both ways + fuels. Someone could have notified me the day before. And then no one called me back. I called them twice and each time they told me GM will call me tomorrow to reschedule. Not happening. So I end up call uhual help line and the corp person found out due to system glitch the parts was never shipped out. So I asked to reschedule to another place for install as I already lost faith in Uhual renton storage. Unfornately the part can only be ship to same place and I need to call another department to reschedule. I tried twice and never succeed reaching the other department so I give up. I should have keep trying. The day before the second scheduled appointment I called them and confirmed the parts are ready and I am good to go. I appreciate the person who checked it for me. Finally on the day of hitch installation. I was told it should take about 1 hr and 30 minutes. However it took more than 3 hours. The reason was there was some issue with the wiring part. The tech is nice to let me know the issue and he went to another store to find a replacement part. But the replacement part is also not working so the tech suspect it is some issue with my van. And he gave the wiring instruction to me and asked me to go to the dealer to check. The moment I drive out of the UHual storage of renton I noticed some funny noises. Turned out I was driving with a exhaust pipe hanging around and touching the ground from time to time for 50 miles (went to another place before reaching home). After coming back at home, I found one of my exhaust pipe hanger is missing and another in the middle is not attched, and that's where the noise is coming from. I have no evidence that this is caused by hitch installation. Maybe the tech took them off to install the hitch and forget to put them back, maybe because he is busy with the wiring issue. I'll just say, what a coincidence this happened right after the hitch installation. Also the wiring issue? the instruction clearly said "install two 7.5 amps fuse into position #2 & #11", while those two fuses are actually installed to position #10 & #11. Anyway I appreciate the tech's effort in getting another wiring part from another store and his kindness to gave the wiring instruction sheet to me.

    There was a $40 fuel charge for the gas, and the guy waved it, saying it was close enough.

    I'm kind of torn about what to give this place…read more I needed a truck on a Saturday morning to swap some furniture from my storage unit to my home. Uhaul, Budget, everyone was already booked up. Handy Andy gets bonus points for being able to accommodate me without an advance reservation. They also got us checked out quickly and charged the same rental fee as the other "big boys." The subtraction point is because the truck was an absolute junker. There was a hole in the driver's seat so big I could put my whole arm through it all the way to the floor. The truck cab was filthy. The cargo area floor was ripping up and there was no ramp. The truck was making a horrible noise - as if a belt was about to go. It felt like the suspension and shocks were totally shot. We had to be extra careful about using enough furniture padding and tie-downs. The place itself is an absolute dump. A literal junkyard. We left there wondering about the company's worker's comp history. There are tools hanging hap-hazardly all over the walls, multiple story shelves and an enormous crazy-hot totally open space heater that would have caught my pants on fire if I had been unfortunate enough to back into it while in line. The guys were nice enough and I did get a last-minute truck. But yeesh - what a rundown dump.

    rhe concrete deal works but there's a guy there who looks like Temu Melvin from office space , I…read moreguess he's just miserable person and basicsally gave me ready mix. it was nearly that dry. might have been better then I wouldn't have had to dig it out so hard. upon return he said your are past the two hours and put fees on there. multiple times I was told to return it by five. never once was I told 2 hours. I said do what you gotta do. he was within a legal right so it is what it is. just expect a passive aggressive asshole when you go and you won't be disappointed

    Zero stars should be an option…read more Facilities look nice and staff may seem friendly, but management is terrible. Stay away from StorQuest Storage. Prices increase frequently (sometimes every 3-4 months), and what is promised verbally is later changed or denied. Once you're in, the rules shift and the customer has no real support. Billing is a major concern: auto-pay charges can be inconsistent, additional fees (including insurance) may appear even if you already have coverage, and refunds are extremely difficult to obtain. I have also seen multiple reports from other customers about belongings being auctioned after short delays in payment, even after years of renting. Do not rely on verbal agreements. Document everything. Consider other options.

    At one point, my family and I were renting up to five rooms at StorQuest (5890 S 129th St, Seattle,…read moreWA 98178, which is actually within Tukwila city limits). Each customer I encountered whenever I was on the premises complained about bait-and-switch promotional tactics and guest services -- specifically, requiring a renter's driver's license in exchange for borrowing a cart, then leaving and locking the office for unspecified periods of time, forcing a renter to wait for the license, and pushing him off schedule for the rest of his day. Having rented from the company for about four years between 2021 and 2025, wherever I can, I share my own terrible experiences with the company's opportunistic behavior, shameless abandonment of good-faith business practices, and creative accounting. As many online reviews show, the company and its parent William Warren are unethical, have been for a long time, and are quite comfortable with it. Do yourself a favor and skip national storage companies altogether, and go with a Mom-and-Pop if you can still find one.
