First, let me say that our family moves--a lot! Growing up, I went to 14 schools by the time I graduated high school. Since then, in the 3 years that my husband and I have been married, we have moved 3 more times. So I have quite a bit of ...
Uhaul Story
Changing residences can be a real drag for countless reasons. You have to contact your creditors and update your address. You have to disconnect your telephone. You have to make arrangements to have your utilities cut off. You have to stop your trash collection, cable, and other services.
Then of course ...
Uhaul Story
For some reason the moving business is dirty. When you rent a car a smiling, cheerful individual greets you at the counter and clearly tells you all the options available. But renting a moving truck is completely the opposite (from my experience). First and foremost, never have ...

U-Haul: The Saga Continues
With my upcoming wedding and relocation for graduate school, my family and I sought out the least expensive way to move my fiancee's stuff as well as my belongings to our new apartment. Naturally, being good American consumers, we called around and priced several local do-it-your-self ...

In one way, I am glad to see that I am not alone in my disgust and hatred of U-Haul, as at least I know it's not me alone that gets the shaft with them. If you think the price of U-Haul alone is enough to make it a ...
Uhaul Story
Let's face it, if most of us had a viable option to Uhaul, we'd all use it. Whenever I use Uhaul, they never really hold a reservation. This past time, I needed a truck and trailer to haul some things. Well, they reserved the truck and trailer...but no hitch balls! ...

I tried the U-haul Climate Control Storage Center this summer because it was in a convenient location for me and it was air conditioned with video surveillance and a personal alarm. Living in a big city you hear a lot of stories in the newspaper and breaking into storage ...

Uhaul where to begin?
Formulating a fair review about a company with whom you have a negative history is easier said than done. When I reflect on the name Uhaul the thoughts that immediately come to mind are not appropriate for this forum. So I will attempt to give both ...
Uhaul Story
I've only rented moving trucks a few times, a couple with U-Haul and one with another company. Let me just say that the one time we went with a different company was the easiest move I have ever made!
Both of the times that we rented with U-Haul ...
