Shine Factory Halifax

Moving is MUCH easier when you have a U-​Haul. Someday I hope to be in the financial position to just hire movers and have someone else do all the heavy-​lifting for me, but for now I’m a do-​it-​yourself kind of girl, and Shine Factory’s U-​Haul rental service fit my budget. There was a flat rate of $ 19.99 per day for the large van U-​Haul, plus a fee per kilometer, so our final expenditure came in at around $ 60 for a day of moving (which included insurance and a utility dolly).
My one gripe with the place was that we were scheduled to pick up the U-​Haul at 9, and we didn’t actually get the keys and leave the parking lot until about 9:40. When we arrived it was pretty much a ghost town — after several rounds of shouting «Hellooooooo. Anybody therrrrrrrrrrre?» I decided to venture towards the back of the business and into the garage section. In the underbelly of the garage, I managed to get the attention of a young man who appeared to be in the midst of detailing a car. He did not look overly thrilled to be disturbed, but advised that his boss would be back soon to give me the keys and fill out the paperwork. About 20 minutes later, the boss finally came back. However, when he did show up he was lovely and friendly and informative and answered all the questions that I had. If it weren’t for the lateness I would give them 4 stars.
