I had a 16" truck. held all my stuff with a little extra room

I reserved a truck but they didn't have it as the other customers didn't return it on-time. So I got the cargo van instead.

Overall very satisfied.

A nice company to go with. Fortunately they had the van I wanted available, though it may help to call to make sure that the type of moving vehicle you needed is available. Picking and dropping the van off was easy and the van I had rode comfortably.

My truck was leaking from the roof

I was pleased with the price of our 16’ budget truck, but it was absolutely filthy when we picked it up. Curly fries and onion rings on the floor, nothing wiped down, a layer of grime on every surface… it was disgusting. We have to spend 2 hours cleaning the cab of the car ourselves before we could stand to be in it. The “quiet cab” was also EXTREMELY LOUD- nothing quiet about it. Even with the windows up it sounded like you were driving with the windows down. Almost hurt my ears.

Max went beyond the norm by offering to help us after closing time on a Sunday since Budget changed the pick up location at the last minute.

This was the worst move of my life. Budget didn't have the equipment I needed to move my car, despite my having reserved it more than a month in advance. They didn't bother to tell me until the day I picked it up, despite having known for two days that it wouldn't be available, which would have at least given me lead time to find an alternative. After about 4 hours on the phone with customer service, I was told the tow dolly would be available at some point on the day we were supposed to leave. We pushed our move back deciding to do the drive in 2 long days, instead of the 3 it should take, but when the day came they said they still didn't have one available and that they didn't know when they would. I finally got the tow dolly the day after I was supposed to leave. I had to push my move back by nearly five days which meant my partner ended up driving down without me, we had to leave one of our vehicles at our old residence to come back for later, I had to buy a last minute (very expensive) plane ticket to fly to my new home so I could start my new job on time (and rent a car to get there), plus we will have to book another plane ticket to fly back and get our other car at some point, which will also mean taking time off of work to do so. The owner/manager of the local office was great and felt bad for us, but was powerless to do anything to help us since there was no equipment in the entire state or region according to Budget's inventory manager. I have asked Budget to reimburse us for the excess costs associated with the delay (plane tickets, rental car, and additional days with the moving truck since it will be returned later than planned) and have to wait to hear back from upper management if they will approve the expenses. I do not understand why they offer a product that they clearly do not have available, that is a completely ridiculous way to run a business.

The condition of the truck we were given was dangerous. Front driver side tire was worn right down to the steel belt. I was amazed we did not have a blowout on the road, and the alignment was bad, the vehicle pulled continually to the right and the cab shook badly for the entire drive. And filthy inside as well.

They didn't have a truck. Didn't return my calls. I went with Fluid instead.

Really cheap and super loud truck. It also didn't have cruise control so it made driving unpleasant.

I showed up to get my truck and it was not the size I reserved, she said sorry nothing we can do about it we don't have the size of truck you ordered we always just give a larger truck. I of course find this highly unacceptable practice, I was not comfortable driving a larger truck for one and the gas cost was significantly higher for the larger truck. My daughter's belongings were not enough to fill a larger truck which created greater risk of them just moving around in the truck and getting broken. These practices should be changed, I should have received a call that the truck I needed wasn't available at the location I rented it from and given another option or location to pick up the truck size I actually reserved.

I made a reservation two months prior and they called me on the day of the move and said they didn't have it! I scrambled and got a PENSKE vehicle. Go with PENSKE in the first place... better equipment and even a better price!

trashed truck, poor condition, dirty, poor customer service at pick up, drop off went smooth

Cargo van worked fine and agents were helpful and professional. Both pickup and delivery sites were poorly signed making them hard to find, were understaffed resulting in delays and interruptions and had limited, excessively restrictive hours. Cargo Van itself had floor level tie-downs, but lacked upper level tie-down rails making it difficult to secure load.

Gave me a great deal. Military pricing.

Correct trucks were not reserved. Customer service at pickup was horrendous - attendant was arrogant, rude, and dismissive of our rental. Reserved two 16’ trucks, only had one 16’ truck available on day of move.

truck had 175,000 miles on it. but it did the job.

Good overall, but the doors in the cab did not close tightly and were fairly noisy on the highway.

Checking out and in was super fast and easy.

Nothing special. Billing appears to be a challenge. My rental reservation indicated an estimated cost of $325. I was billed $504. The difference was explained as a refundable deposit. Three days after the move I have not received the refund and am now chasing that down.

The original movers cancelled on the day I was scheduled to move. Therefore, I needed the truck an additional day. I rented the truck for two days, but I was not told during pickup that the second day drop-off was at 9:00 am. Therefore, I was charged an additional days rental.

Very helpful! Good service

The truck made it from PA to Texas.

They were pretty awful to work with. I had a pick up scheduled for 7:30, but the place didn't open until 8, so I was stuck hanging around on the street for 30 minutes. Then, they didn't have the furniture pads that I had reserved, so I was left without those. Once I arrived at my final destination, they tried to charge me an extra day, even though I was two days early, and made me jump through a ton of hoops. Just a terrible experience.

1. Truck was filthy, not even touched since the previous rental. Old food all over the floor. A roach crawled on my leg when I hit the gas pedal the first time. 2. They gave me a broken auto trailer and weren't sure they could find me another - huge amount of stress the day before my move. They ended up getting one towed from Wyoming (~1.5hrs away) for me, so I appreciated that... 3. until I dropped the truck off in Sacramento. The people at the location downtown there were rude and gave me crap about dropping off a day early (???), then told me the truck wasn't full of gas. I told them the gas gauge was at the same level as I got it, and it had been stopping there all trip long when I filled it. They then told me that the gauge was not functioning correctly but despite this, it was still on me to make sure it was "filled to the brim." I refused to drive the truck back across town and blindly pump gas into it with a broken gauge, so they charged me a $30 service fee plus the gas. Overall, terrible experience. Two stars because the truck itself actually drove and they found me a trailer, otherwise this would be a hard 1.

Given COVID froze almost everything for over 12 months, I would have thought the trucks would be cleaned inside especially. But no the cap was a pit of germs, the interior windshield had layers of dirt. $568.56; $.99/mile and $60 a day for insurance on a truck with 161k miles

The truck cab leaked in 3 places when it rained. The wipers needed replacing. The air conditioning did not work. Aweful experience...from picking it up to dropping it off.

Fantastic team! They were on time and worked very efficiently to unload and put everything onto my mom's 2nd floor apartment. Very safety focused and made sure nothing was broken. I would 100% use Jodie and his brother again!

Went with Budget since got a good deal through Costco Membership. Wish I'd gone with someone else. The truck was very old and barebones. If I had been doing a longer trip, it would have been miserable. The truck was exceptionally loud which was ironic given the outside of the truck touted the 'Quiet Comfort' of the ride.

No issues with the truck.

Budget was quick, efficient, and cost-effective for the purposes I needed to rent the truck.

We made the move in three trips with 16' and 26' trucks. The first 2 rentals went smoothly, but the third truck was not available until 3 days after the scheduled rental. Be aware reserving a truck ONY means you are reserving for the price, it is NOT a guarantee for the day you want it. Speaking of smoothly, the 26’ foot truck was horribly bouncy and rough in comparison to the 16’ trucks—you might want to wear a kidney belt. I don't remember rental the totals, but I rented through the Costco truck rental program.

Logistics required I extend the rental at destination several days until storage space could be obtained. I had the flexibility to do that, for which I was and am grateful.

Will always rent from Budget if service is this good.

Budget called me an hour before closing and said they didn’t have a truck.

Budget was helpful when I needed to extend the rental term for several additional days. Dropping it off at the destination Budget office was quick and efficient.

Telephone automated contact needs work.

Truck was a little noisy and there was a dash light that I was told not to worry about

Got a call the morning of stating I would have to go elsewhere for my truck rental, had the reservation made for 3 weeks. The truck I eventually was rented was loud, like painfully loud and quite frankly I'm surprised it didnt break down. Check engine light came on 15 minutes after leaving the office.

At the pick up location in Arlington, Texas. they entered the wrong odometer readings into the computer so that at drop off, later that same day we were charged an additional $86. for miles we never went, we clocked 60 on our car, but were charged125 miles on the truck. BAD BUSINESS!!

Budget Rental is just that, budget friendly. I rented a 16' truck to move 600+ miles for almost half the cost competitors wanted to charge. The truck didn't have anything fancy, but the heat, air, and radio worked and it towed a fully loaded car trailer right along with it. I'm very happy with the cost and reliability of Budget. I've used them before and I will use them again.

Service was good, added insurance. When returning truck it was very busy but the woman who checked me out was one heck of a multi tasker and helped several people at once. She was a rock star!!

I am floored at the service from Budget. I reserved a truck for a move well over a month in advance. I happened to call a few days before to ask if we could pick up at 8AM instead of 10 AM per the reservation. They told me to call day before. I called again the day before and was told that a reservation only guarantees the rate, it does not guarantee a truck will be available. If there is no truck available in the city, we cannot give you what we don’t have. I am completely in shock that they could do business this way. Who can take a crap shoot until the day of a move and hope that a truck is available? How can you take a reservation for a truck not knowing whether there is one available? Long story short, they had no truck for me. The close was a 2 hour drive away so I called Uhaul and they guaranteed they would have a truck available the next day and they did.

Smooth pickup and drop off, all staff at both ends were super friendly and super fast. Great value for the money! Highly recommend! Thank you!

Pick up and drop off was smooth. The customer service at the Pensacola location on Davis Hwy was A+ THANK YOU.

The guys were nice and did the job efficiently.

Good to deal with. Just disappointed that I had to get insurance day off the pick up. Would have had that dealt with sooner if told of this.
