“I inherited special items from my parents, which I needed to place in storage. I searched for clean, well-maintained, temperature controlled storage units in the Des Moines metro area and was very happy to find Rich Leonard and Park Avenue Self Storage. The security and cleanliness of his units are second to none. The owner, Rich, is friendly and easy to work with. I give this 5-star facility my highest recommendation for taking good care of precious family items.”
“I rented a truck for about three weeks and staff could not have been nicer. A big shout out to Nathan and Delila for their help. My first truck had an issue but they were quick to swap out and even ask if they could have transfer freight which we decided. I will rent again.”
“Very helpful guys working at the counter here. Had a small issue with a UTV which Jim had addressed asap. We will be using again the next time we’re in need of rental equipment in the location.”
“The nicest, the funniest, and most patient person I’ve ever worked with. Seagba came in a clutch and helped me work out a the proper plan for my trip, and patiently waited for me to get my personal finances figured out too. Super cool dude.”
“I had a coolant leak in the rental box truck I had driven from the Washington DC area for fire department training in Ames. The young lady behind the service counter was very nice and the Technician Ron was very helpful. I went and dropped off the load of training props I had and then he dropped what he was doing to get me back up and running as fast as he could. I was given a truck that was subpar in my opinion but you all took care of repairs professionally.”
“Joni was an absolute delight to work with. She helped assign a unit that was easy to get to, as I am not an expert at backing up a trailer. This was a big move for me, and the entire experience working with U-Haul was fantastic. Thank you!”
“Wouldn't look any further, Great service. Super great to work with. Nice delivery personnel, prompt on delivery times. Jd in the office is great to work with. Will continue to work with.”
“This U-Haul office is absolutely stellar, in every way. I've used them 4 times now, this last time for a relocation to New England. The staff is smart, helpful, flexible, great supplies. If I could give 10 stars I would.”
“Mark was one of the kindest business owners I've ever worked with. He took care of everything quickly and showed incredible customer service. I'd recommend him to anyone and everyone”
“First off, these people are amazing! We had an issue with getting our keys on time for our new rental property and green acres/penske did absolutely everything they could do to make sure there was as much stress lifted from us as they could help with. Second, I would absolutely recommend them all the way around, truck rental, storage, very secure facility. Thanks for all your help green acres ♡”
“Very good location to go to if you have a breakdown, they’re very knowledgeable and honest I thought I had a very expensive problem but it was only a wiring harness came unplugged! You guys rock MHC KENWORTH DES MOINES!!!!!”
“Absolutely impressed with my recent U-Haul experience! Although I encountered a minor issue with the app initially, where it kept indicating I was at the wrong address despite being at the correct location, the staff swiftly resolved the problem. Their prompt assistance made the entire rental process smooth and hassle-free. I strategically planned my visit for the evening to avoid any wait time, and it worked perfectly. The gentlemen working the counter on July 12, 2024, were incredibly helpful and efficient. I was in and out in no time, making the whole experience seamless and pleasant. Highly recommend!”
“I was blown away by the hospitality at this place.. Moving is stressful enough and it was soooo refreshing to receive fast friendly service. I can't say enough about my experience there. I will highly recommend to anyone and everyone!! My only complaint would be about the equipment I used. The truck I rented had failing/grinding breaks which was very concerning. I was in a time crunch and pushed through it. Thank you for great experience!!!”
“We normally wouldn't have ended up here, but we had to swap out a truck in short order and the staff was as helpful as they could be within policy limits and made sure we were ok, set up the trucks perfectly to make the swap and lent us a pallet jack so we could complete the job. and they gave us a truck that improved the quality of our trip significantly. Thank you Des Moines Penske!”
“Highly recommended by this satisfied customer. Very affordable. First time I ever used them. If I need a moving truck in the future, it's Budget Truck Rental that I'll be using!”
“We've never rented a storage unit before, but the manager, Gianni, was incredibly efficient and good at explaining the process. He was multitasking the whole time, and customers were coming in to turn in their trucks and thanking him for the smooth process. I just couldn't believe the cleanliness of the whole place and all the lighting. The restrooms have been sparkling clean every time I've been there to store more things or take things out for our new home. This is a well run operation with well trained personnel.”
“Huge! Helpful, hitched the trailer for me and then was patient enough to show me how everything worked and double checked it all for safety cause my anxiety was horrible.”
“I love renting from U-Haul, the price for renting a really nice brand new pickup truck is only $19.99 a day! You have to really watch your mileage because extra mileage fees are pretty high and they don't offer unlimited mileage but they did negotiate on the cost of overage fees for us!”
“The staff at this location are awesome...Nicole, Shane & Kris. Nicole was very patient & was able to assist me in deciding what vehicle would be best for my needs. I will definitely go back to this location. It is people like these who make this life better. Thank you!!!”
“The facility is clean and very well managed. They have thought of everything when designing this building. I especially like the fact that you can drive in an unload your moving truck. The people there are very friendly and make you feel at home. I would recommend this facility to anyone that is needing to store their items. You can rest easy knowing that they care as much for your items being stored as you do.”
