"We're excited to expand our self-storage footprint in
Hobbs," said Bianca Sotelo-Herrera, U-Haul Company of
Southern New Mexico president.
"Convenience is key. We want to offer more trusted and affordable
self-storage options to our Lea
County customers. Taking over an existing self-storage
facility is a fast and ecofriendly way to do this."
U-Haul continues to benefit the environment through its
shared-use business model. Truck and trailer sharing enables
communities to share moving equipment so that families and
individuals don't need to own large-capacity vehicles to transfer
belongings. Sustainability initiatives like U-Haul Adaptive Reuse
(the preserving and repurposing of existing buildings for new
stores), truck modifications to improve fuel economy, and plastic
Ready-To-Go Boxes® that are shared hundreds of
times before being recycled are among the many ways U-Haul
promotes green business. U-Box Load Share, the Company's latest
sustainability program, was just named the 2023 Best in Biz gold
winner for the Most Environmentally Friendly Service of the
Year.
