Colonial Inn owner Hemisha Patel is proud to partner with the industry leader in do-it-yourself moving and self-storage to better meet the demands of Macon County.

U-Haul has been working with independent dealers to offer rental equipment to do-it-yourself movers since 1945. As small businesses continue to open in North America, over 21,000 dealers across the U.S. and Canada have partnered with U-Haul to generate supplemental income. When customers rent from a U-Haul dealer, they are directly supporting an independent small business in their community.

Because no financial investment is required to be a dealer, these local affiliates are not U-Haul franchises. They are simply small businesses that have committed a portion of their lot space for U-Haul equipment, and a portion of their time to help meet the moving needs of their neighbors.

U-Haul Truck Share 24/7® allows customers to create an online account and pick up their truck at any hour using only their smartphone with photo feature and GPS. Trained Live Verify agents support customers online, enabling them to skip the lines and go straight to their truck.
