U-Haul Offering 30 Days of Free Self-Storage and U-Box Moving and Self-Storage Containers to North Houston Apartment Complex Fire Victims

HOUSTON - (March 6, 2013) —U-Haul Storage Centers of Houston is offering 30 days of free self-storage and U-Box moving and self-storage containers to residents of the Worthing at the Beltway Apartments on Greens Parkway who need to evacuate and move their belongings away from housing recently damaged by fire. 

With the U-Box moving and self-storage container, you can conveniently pick up our custom-designed trailer and take your U-Box container with you. U-Haul also can store the U-Box container in our secure warehouse or even pick up and deliver it to a location of your choice. 

In addition to the 30-days-free self-storage assistance being offered, 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 – 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, free of charge, instead of throwing the reusable box into the recycling bin. U-Haul also urges customers to stop in to ensure that their propane tanks are topped off, since propane is a good thing to have on hand in the event of long-term power outages.

Families needing more information about the 30-days-free self-storage assistance program should contact the following U-Haul regional office.

We will do our best to help our friends and neighbors in this time of need.”
