Description of Work: My husband and I rented a van for one day with estimated cost of $90 plus mileage over 100 miles. We returned the van within 24 hours but were charged approximately $5o too much. When I called, I was given a million reasons why I was charged what I was charged and when I disputed each one I was told I needed to talk with the manager. The next day my husband and I went to the store and spoke to the manager, while I was quite upset, I was not yelling but he copped an attitude and said not to be upset at him as he was trying to help. I told him I had pictures of the mileage as I took pictures of the entire van before we left on lot. He asked to see the pictures. He proceeded to explain that it wasn't checked back in until two days after we left it at the lot which was not my fault and I was charged for gas (because the gauge wasn't exactly on the little white mark). He stated he would change the check in since he saw us drop it off and the charge would be for only the mileage we agreed on (about $50 less) of which he then proceeded to charge me tax on my refund.....geez. I just wonder how many other people who drop off the vehicle get screwed because they don't pay much attention and didn't take pictures....I would be very very careful using this place again.

We selected this mover from a list of local movers on U-Haul's website when we rented a U-Haul truck. We prepaid for two hours of their time through U-Haul's website; services to be performed in Pocatello, ID. The person who called us to set up the time for the moving company to be at our new house, left a barely coherent message on our phone. My husband called him back during business hours and he sounded like he was sleeping. We gave the company the benefit of the doubt since we had already paid for services and hoped it wasn't indicative of what was to come. We were so wrong! When we arrived at our new home with our U-Haul, two workers from this company arrived within a few minutes of the set appointment, so punctuality wasn't a problem. One worker was dressed in a huge t-shirt and very baggy jeans (pretty street-thuggish), had long, dirty looking hair, and had speech and communication difficulties. This was the person in charge of the two person team. The other worker came in tight Wrangler jeans, silver-tipped, high-heeled cowboy boots and a dress shirt. Neither was dressed appropriately for labor and the team lead was not someone I really wanted in my home (given the creep factor) however I had already paid for two hours of their labor and needed the immediate help so that we could return the U-Haul. When the workers arrived I told both of them that we only needed help with the heavy lifting and that everything else could be moved by my family. Both workers, especially the team lead, attempted to talk and stand around conversing most of the time. When they did begin moving items, they selected the lightest stuff on the truck. I had to micromanage the entire operation to keep them from spending the entire two hours talking and avoiding heavy lifting. They complained about being asked to move things and my nearly 70 year old father ended up doing much of the heavy lifting, along with my husband. I have never seen anything like these guys. They wasted so much time, only to tell us that we could pay them cash to get them to stay longer. They attempted to leave early when our refrigerator was only part of the way to it's destination, until I told them that they still had 15 minutes of services to perform and that we wanted at least the two hours we paid for. It was unbelievable. Managing these guys was so stressful and the way they took advantage of the situation was really not right. Their lack of professionalism and simply knowing what their job was (how to move things) was overwhelming after a long trip to a new town. Thankfully, we had an amazing experience with the company we hired to load the truck in Boise, ID before we left for our trip. We paid about twice as much to the team that loaded the truck in Boise, but they brought a team of 10 people and did EVERYTHING (they packed things that hadn't yet been packed yet, loaded the truck, cleaned and removed trash from our home, and even made a trip to the dump for us) - all IN 3 and a half HOURS! Those guys were amazing and I will review them separately.
Description of Work: We prepaid for two hours of moving services from this Mover through U-Haul when we rented a U-Haul truck. They were listed as a local moving company in Pocatello, ID, where we were moving. They returned our call and left a message. We returned theirs and we set up a time for their movers to meet us at our new house. A team of two assisted us in unloading furniture from a U-Haul truck into a home. Three appliances were included in the load: a refrigerator and small capacity washer and dryer. The washer and dryer were moved with my father and my husband's help, 15 feet from the truck into our garage. The refrigerator was moved into the house by the two workers, my father, and my husband. The workers had to be instructed the entire time on how to move the item and how to navigate doorways, etc. Newly dry-walled and painted walls were unfortunately dinged and newly laid travertine was scuffed. The team lead from this company complained every time they had to move something even remotely heavy. These guys moved so slowly and wasted so much time standing around that the vast majority of items were still outside or on the truck when they left. They tried to get us to pay them cash to stay and help move more stuff, but we gave them a definitive, "No." They left on time (after trying to leave early and being told that they still had 15 minutes of services to perform. Most of the items had to be moved by me, my husband, and my father. This was a really weird and terrible experience.

The truck is low to the ground, which makes it easy to load. I liked the price.

They provide a very good truck and equipment. The workers was very friendly and helpful. They seemed very honest and willing to help.
Description of Work: My son moved to Norfolk, VA and we rented a U-haul truck from U-Haul Moving & Storage at Janaf. That was a very good experience.
