Excellent customer service both from collection and drop off locations and easy to use systems.
On the 8th of April 2020, I hired a trailer from the Gold Coast on a one way hire basis and dropped it off at Laidley at both locations the staff were friendly and very helpful.
The tap screen computer console was simple and easy to use even for an old bloke like myself.
The staff at the Laidley servo were awesome, they also agreed with me in complimenting Uhaul on their customer service and computer system saying that they always awesome to deal with and nothing was ever any problem.
This is the 4th one way trailer hire I have done with Uhaul (GC to Katherine, Darwin to GC, GC to Perth and this one GC to Laidley) and I will most definitely be using then again in the future.

Easy and simple
I booked a trailer rental over the phone. The employee was very helpful in narrowing exactly where to hire from and what product would suit my needs. Highly recommended, would definitely use U-Haul again!

So easy to use
I have used servo trailers in the past and most have been old and cruddy. Used U-haul this time and the process was super easy and hassle free. The trailer was in pretty good nick and did the job no problems.
Would definitely use these guys again.

DO NOT USE U-HAUL TRAILERS LET WATER IN
So we rented a trailer with the porpoise of moving state and of course we've chosen a furniture enclosed trailer that wouldn'tet water in.
Fact if it does, our matress, paintings even rigid cases were completely wet.
Uhaul answer? The trailer is water resistant and not waterproof. This is just deceiving and unfair, we have clothing, furtinure, electronic appliances, our matress, everything ruined and instead of a fresh start, thanks to U-HAUL we are going to have a nightmare start.
If you can please do not use this company, choose another one, when we delivered the trailer we were told we were not the first ones so..

THE WORST!
Customer service was terrible at both the kiosk location and over the phone. BP have no idea how to use the kiosk. It's super hard to hire from this company.

Unsafe
Was given a trailer with a broken door hinge AND a broke wheel bearing. 10km down the road wheel was buckling and smoking. RACQ inspected and said to be that bad had to have been driven like that for a few hundred km. Was left on the side of the road for 2 hours for a tow truck. Then given a replacement trailer BUT u haul refused to help me move all.my furniture from one trailer to the next. To put this In context I am a disabled war veteran.
Unsafe, awful service..just don't.

U-Haul helps communities in need
Well done U-Haul for sponsoring trailers for our group last weekend to deliver 1000 litre tanks to Batemans Bay area for communities that lost access to water in the fires.

A very good seamless experience
Utilising UHaul for a car carrying trailer on a one way hire was a great experience. From placing a booking online, and also talking to the customer service teams when I had a query was a very good experience. Customer service team was knowledgeable and understanding, when dealing with me, who had not hired a trailer previously.
I picked up the trailer from Shell Bargo, the service from the local owner operator was very pleasing. They helped me hook the trailer and checked my brake and indicator lights we’re working well. Also gave me some ...Read more
directions which saved me time to get to where I was going. I travelled from Cranbourne South Victoria to Sussex inlet and then back home. Being able to pick up the trailer on. A one way hire saved me pulling the trailer all the way up. Having the convenience of a pick up local to where I was getting the car from saved me time, petrol money and the stress of towing the trailer all the way up. Round trip was 2065 kilometres. The trailer was really good, tyres trailer brakes etc all worked as you would expect, had food hitching point. Drop off was easy, with a scan of my credit card and even for help taking the trailer off at the UHaul yard in Carrum Downs where I dropped it off.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

Trailer Hire
I hired a U-Haul 8x5 trailer from the local servo for 2 days. The condition of the trailer was excellent, for some reason the booking didn't come up on the kiosk, I called U-Haul directly and the issue was resolved immediately by the customer service support team. Great work and a big thanks to U-Haul, I got the job done that I needed the trailer for.

Loved the Uhaul Trailer hire
I had to hire a trailer today to moved some stock around my shops in my local area, it took me two minutes to book on line, i arrived at my Local Caltex to pick up the trailer, again 2 minutes at the Kiosk typing in a few details, went to counter the Lovely girls gave me a trailer plug and Shackle checked off my paperwork and came with me to the trailer to unlock it for me...
Couldn't get any easier...Thanks UHAUL!!!

Easy process
Picked up trailer from Emerald, staff most helpful, all our details were saved when we made the booking so kiosk log on was easy. Trailer good to tow on the road, dropped the trailer back at Sunshine Coast at Warana head office, Greg & his team most welcoming. I would recommend & use U Haul every time.

Beyond terrible...
1. Went to collect trailer, wrong credit card number saved on their system (despite my card being charged) so could not retrieve booking. First customer service person said that we would need to cancel and rebook, and would have to pay more as we booked it at a special price. Called back a second time and spoke to someone who quickly retrieved booking and gave us directives to bypass issue. Solved quickly, unsure why first call could not have resolved it.
2. Went to drop off early, place closed, called to see if we could drop off elsewhere. Cu...Read more

solution at all. When we asked to speak to anyone else who would be willing to help us, we were offered her superior.... 4 hours later. No attempt was made to contact nearby sites, in fact we drove around to talk to them ourselves as the customer service rep said they may not have room. She did not offer to check only to call back 4 hours later. As initially said, when we did call back the senior customer service rep was able to change things quickly and easily, but this is a flawed system that should not have caused so many issues.U-Haul A.U-Haul Australia
Hi - Could you please provide your Hire ID or the site location you picked up the trailer from for us to further investigate or please call us on 1300 883 075 and ask to speak with our Call Centre Manager. Regards U-Haul Australia

Find an alternative trailer option
No flexibility and rates are rich. The time starts at kiosk and by the time you wait in line to give receipt to servo attendant, get the key from him to unlock trailer, hook up trailer, wait for him to give you coupling and power line, take key back - you're already 1/2 hr into the hire. $86 just to get some greens to the tip! Next day i borrowed a trailer from the guy down the road for a six pack.

Booked and paid for car trailer on Thursday
Went to pick it up Friday morning, inspected the trailer and found breaks did not work.
Called to inform them was told no other trailers available in the area. One available 140km away but i would have return it to the pickup point. REFUND? Maybe 3 days. didn't want to 140km to find out the other trailer was a junk aswell.
only found out at attempted pickup payload limit of 1200kg, how many cars on the road under 1200kg
Never ever again

Uhaul company rocks
Used a Uhaul trailer for multi-day hire - the trailer was in excellent condition. Also dealt with the company directly relating to a personal situation and they were brilliant, caring and incredibly helpful ... showed real leadership.

DON'T DO IT!
I booked a 6x4 cage trailer online and paid for it 2 prior to collection. At the date and time of collection I was given a rego number for the allocated trailer. However after a long time on the phone I was advised that someone else had taken the trailer. I was then directed to pick up another trailer at Exeter some 12km further away. When I got there the trailer had caked on dirt all around the inside and the cage was rusty. From my perspective I would not have felt safe hauling that interstate for an 8 hour trip. I was then told to back track...Read more
to 10 Henley Beach to collect a trailer there. On arrival I called U haul to ask what to do to change the rego only to be told that the trailer in question was no longer available. By this time it was after midday. I had arranged to collect the trailer at 10am and had arranged for paid help to pack the trailer which I then had to cancel because there were no trailers available bar Blair Athol - way across town. I had other commitments and had to abandon efforts until later in the day. I tried the chat option that was a slow and dismal attempt in communication. Eventually I phoned the 1300 number that I had called so many times that morning. To secure a trailer I upgraded to a bigger trailer 8x5 and paid extra. I asked if they could ring the agent and make sure there is a suitable roadworthy one way trailer for me to collect on Monday. The attendant at the agency was unable to give a registration number but indicated there were 3 trailers at the place of business. A confirmation email was sent and instead of the agreed drop off it has another drop of point 35 minutes drive from the agreed location. So now they expect me to return it 43.6km away. The whole transaction and interaction with U-Haul has been frustrating and absolutely unsatisfactory. I would not recommend them at all and can only describe their business as incompetent.Similar opinion? Write a review on ieatwords.com.au!

One of the best car trailers I've ever used!
Yesterday I hired a U Haul car trailer to pick up a car in the country. The trailer towed really well empty & loaded up on the way back with an EJ Holden it was trouble free. No swaying or strange noises, I nearly forgot it was there. It was easy to book online & return, I'll use you guys again.

oking, this same card will need to be presented upon pick up to identity your booking. Trading hours of the drop off locations are not within our control however we will attempt to find a solution to allow an earlier drop off from contracted time by checking site stock availability nearby. Unfortunately the machine did not initially recognise your Hire ID due to the change of contracted drop off location.
