As families evacuate ahead of the storm, they
can store possessions free for 30 days at a participating U-Haul
facility
TAMPA,
Fla., Sept. 26, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- U-Haul® is
offering 30 days of free self-storage and U-Box® container usage at
43 Florida facilities to residents who stand to be impacted by
Hurricane Ian.
The hurricane is expected to make landfall by midweek, bringing
the likelihood of significant storm surges, high winds and flooding
to the west central coastal region of Florida. Hillsborough County and at least a half dozen
other counties have begun issuing mandatory evacuations to go into
effect on Tuesday.
"Roughly 100 miles of the Florida coast is currently under a hurricane
watch, but experts are urging everyone in this region to have
emergency plans in place," said Mike
Wise, U-Haul Company of Clearwater president.
Bob Magyar, U-Haul Company of
Tampa president, added: "As a
member of so many Florida
communities, U-Haul is in a unique position to help as this storm
approaches and families plan to evacuate. We're extending our
disaster relief program to our neighbors throughout much of the
state, with 30 days of free self-storage at participating
locations."
The free month of self-storage services is available to
customers renting new units and is subject to vacancy at each
U-Haul facility. People seeking more information about the U-Haul
disaster relief program or needing to arrange 30 days of free
self-storage should contact the participating facility nearest them
