U-Haul has 84 centers across Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida offering 30 days of free self-storage and U-Box container use to people affected by the flooding brought about by Tropical Storm Arthur.

The remnants of Tropical Storm Arthur dumped inches, and in some cases feet, of rain across coastal regions including metro New Orleans, Gulfport-Biloxi, and Mobile among many other areas. Heavy rainfall caused flash flooding and home and property damage in numerous communities.

Access to self-storage units and portable storage containers is vital to communities when recovering from natural disasters. U-Haul is ready to help anyone affected by the flooding who needs a dry, secure storage solution at no cost for one month.

The 30 days free offer applies to new self-storage and U-Box rentals and is based on availability at participating locations. The U-Box offer is for on-site storage at Company facilities; delivery is available for a modest fee.
