Storm Recovery: U-Haul Offers 30 Days Free Storage at 366 Centers

Tornado outbreak creates need for disaster relief across much of the Southeast, other areas

LITTLE ROCK, Ark.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--U-Haul® has made 366 Company stores available to help storm victims with 30 days of free self-storage and U-Box® container usage after a powerful weather system produced deadly tornadoes, fires, flooding and wind damage across a line of states Friday through Sunday morning.

Access to dry and secure U-Haul self-storage units and U-Box portable storage containers can assist communities during the clean-up process.

The storms destroyed homes and property – and in some cases communities – while the tornado outbreak was responsible for a number of casualties. Many families remain without power and face a long rebuilding process.

Access to dry and secure self-storage units and portable storage containers can assist communities during the clean-up process.

U-Haul offered free storage at 16 centers on Saturday in Oklahoma following an outbreak of more than 130 wildfires, and at three centers on Friday in Texas after damaging winds from the same weather system.

Now 29 U-Haul regional presidents in Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee have extended the Company’s disaster relief program to accommodate anyone in need with one month of self-storage services at no cost.

That adds 347 new locations (listed below) to the 19 sites previously designated in Oklahoma and Texas. Find a U-Haul facility near you at uhaul.com/locations.

The 30 days free offer applies to new self-storage and U-Box rentals and is based on availability. The U-Box portable container offer is for on-site storage at Company facilities. People seeking more information on the disaster relief program or needing to arrange storage services can call their nearest regional office or visit any U-Haul-owned facility in a participating state and city:
