Coming in 2026: U-Haul Buys Land for First Store in Grand Chute
10 September 2024 - 4:40AM
Business Wire
U-Haul® has purchased a 7.78-acre lot off West Neubert Road with
plans to build a state-of-the-art retail, moving and self-storage
center to better meet the needs of Grand Chute residents.
The property was acquired Aug. 22. Plans call for U-Haul
Moving & Storage at Northland Ave. to be completed by
summer 2026.
The primary three-story facility will house more than 1,000
climate-controlled self-storage units with high-tech security
features at affordable price points; a sprawling retail showroom
with boxes, moving supplies, towing accessories, bike racks and
more; a bay to accommodate professional hitch installations; a
drive-in load/unload bays for storage customers; and U-Haul Truck
Share 24/7 services.
A separate 10,000-square-foot warehouse will store U-Box
portable moving containers. Propane refills will be available on
site as well.
“We are very excited to offer the growing community of Grand
Chute the convenience to be do-it-yourselfers with a beautiful new
U-Haul center,” said Steven Sabah, U-Haul Company of Northern
Wisconsin and the UP president.
Sabah intends to hire up to 12 Team Members to staff the new
store when the project nears completion. U-Haul will look to hire
locally to promote job growth within the Grand Chute community.
U-Haul, honored as a Best for Vets employer by The Military Times,
actively recruits veterans and gives them preference in the hiring
process. Find U-Haul careers at uhauljobs.com.
U-Haul at Northland Ave. is set to become the Company’s 50th
owned-and-operated store in Wisconsin and its first in Grand
Chute.
Until the Grand Chute store is ready, customers can find truck
and trailer rentals at multiple neighborhood dealers in Appleton.
Self-storage services are currently available at five U-Haul
centers within a 12-mile radius of Grand Chute: three in Neenah,
one in Kimberly and the recently opened U-Haul Moving &
Storage of Fox Cities North in Kaukauna.
U-Haul has partnered with independent dealers to provide
communities with accessible mobility since 1945. During these
challenging times, more than 21,000 small businesses across the
U.S. and Canada are generating supplemental income by partnering
with U-Haul. When customers rent from their local U-Haul dealers,
they are directly supporting small businesses in their community.
Because there is no financial investment from dealers, they are not
U-Haul franchises. They are simply small businesses with enough lot
space to park U-Haul equipment and the time to welcome more
customers while meeting the mobility needs of their neighbors.
