Advise the customer that you can notate the account but that they will need to go into the office at the location after they have moved out to notify them.

If they wish to avoid paying they would need to be out of their unit by the close of business the day before their bill is due.

Customer calls in to get a quote from us after having gotten a quote from Budget first. You create the quote for the customer and it is higher than Budget's. They want you to price match or they will not reserve with you. How do you respond?
I understand that you spoke with Budget & they were only X dollars, however U-Haul has many advantages over Budget such as thousands more locations, more aerodynamic fuel saving trucks, no hidden fees, and no cancelation fees. I can offer you a one time discount (if the system allows) of X amount if you reserve with me today which I highly recommend as our trucks are flying off the lots. With that in mind which credit card would you like to use to confirm your reservation?

I understand that you are hesitant to make the reservation now due to having to pay $45, however, we are the #1 installer of hitches nationwide therefore we are extremely busy and it is difficult to get in to one of our hitch pros at the last minute.
