Go to our U-Haul dealer page on uhaul.com, pick your equipment, date and time, and add any supplies you need. U-Haul sends the confirmation. Bring it and your license to the counter at pickup. ### What are your U-Haul pickup hours? Pickups happen while we are open: Monday to Friday 8 AM to 5 PM and Saturday 8 AM to 2 PM. We are closed Sunday, so plan weekend pickups for Saturday and allow time before the 2 PM close. ### Can I return a U-Haul after you close? Yes. Use the after-hours drop: park where shown, fill out the drop card, leave the keys as instructed, and photograph the fuel gauge, odometer and cargo area. Keep the photos until the final receipt arrives. ### Can I call to ask which size I need? Yes. The counter can talk through truck and trailer sizes by phone during open hours. When you are ready to book, the reservation is made on uhaul.com for our location. ### What equipment can I rent at your location? 10, 15, 20 and 26 foot trucks, cargo vans, cargo trailers, utility trailers, auto transport trailers, tow dollies and motorcycle trailers. Availability changes daily, so check uhaul.com for your date. ### How much does it cost to rent a U-Haul here? U-Haul sets rental rates, and they vary by equipment, date and distance. You see the price for your rental on uhaul.com before you confirm the reservation, including any supplies you add. ### How much can a U-Haul truck or trailer carry? Capacity differs by unit. Confirm current capacity on uhaul.com for the equipment on your reservation, and check your own vehicle's towing rating before you book a trailer. ### What is the free hookup check? A technician checks ball and coupler size, the latch and pin, crossed safety chains, trailer lights, tongue weight, and your hitch rating against U-Haul requirements. It takes a few minutes and costs nothing. ### Does the free check inspect my car? No. It covers the connection only. A mechanical inspection of your tow vehicle's brakes, tires, cooling and transmission is a paid vehicle safety inspection, with the fee stated at the counter before testing. ### Why do you take photos at checkout? Fuel level and cargo cleanliness are the two most common return questions. Dated photos at checkout, plus your own photos at return, settle both quickly and fairly. ### Can I rent a truck and a trailer together? Often, yes. Many moves pair a truck with a trailer or tow dolly. The uhaul.com reservation shows which combinations work for your equipment and route. ### Can I do a one-way rental from Upland? Yes, when U-Haul has equipment available for your route. You choose the drop-off location when you reserve on uhaul.com, and the listing shows what is available for your dates. ### What should I bring to pickup? Your license, the reservation on your phone, and, if you are towing, the vehicle with its hitch, ball mount and ball installed. Test your trailer lights at home first so there are no surprises. ### Can you fix my vehicle if something goes wrong during my move? We are a full repair shop with ASE-certified technicians. We accept tow-ins, and same-day work happens when the board allows, so call before you drive over. Every repair starts with a written estimate. ### Where exactly is your lot? 1775 W Foothill Blvd in Upland, at Foothill Blvd and Central Ave, one block east of In-N-Out Burger. We sit on Historic Route 66, between the I-10 and the 210. --- Call (909) 608-7699 or visit https://route66autorepairshop.com/contact for a written estimate.
