The U-Haul Co. of St. Louis and the U-Haul Co. of Memphis are offering 30 days of free storage and U-Box Portable Storage to all residents who have been affected by recent tornadoes and storms in the South.

With U-Box Portable Storage, customers pick up or U-Haul delivers the U-Boxes, customers fill them and then U-Haul stores them in their secure warehouse or delivers them to a location of the customers choice.

In addition to the 30-days-free self-storage assistance, people who need boxes can take advantage of the U-Haul Take a Box, Leave a Box Program. The program enables customers to return their reusable boxes and allows others to take them as needed for free. U-Haul encourages anyone who has any type of reusable box to drop it off at the nearest U-Haul location and allow another family to reuse the box, instead of throwing the reusable box into the recycling bin.

Families needing more information about the 30-days-free self-storage assistance program should contact the following offices:   

·        U-Haul Co. of St. Louis, 800.562.9035

·        U-Haul Co. of Memphis, 800.782.5446  

These tornadoes and storms have caused a tremendous amount of damage to the many communities we serve, said Steven Langford, president, U-Haul Co. of St. Louis. I hope this effort will help provide assistance to families that need support. We will continue to help our friends and neighbors in this time of need.
