Southaven, Mississippi, Welcomes First U-Haul Store into Community

SOUTHAVEN, Miss. – (Jan. 20, 2015) Located just west of Interstate 55, U-Haul Moving and Storage of Southaven is open and ready to serve one of the fastest growing areas in the region. This is the first full-service U-Haul store to call Southaven home.

Built in 1999, this property includes three buildings, totaling 85,265 square feet of building space situated on 6.59 acres of land. The former American Metal Sales buildings, located at 5375 Pepperchase Drive, were acquired by U-Haul in June 2014.

While this location is open for business renting trucks and trailers, plans are underway to add self-storage, U-Box moving and self-storage containers, propane and custom hitch installations.

“We are happy to be able to reuse this building and provide the Southaven community and surrounding residents with a full line of U-Haul services,” stated Carol George, marketing company president of U-Haul Company of Memphis.

The acquisition of American Metal Sales was driven by U-Haul Company’s Corporate Sustainability initiatives: U-Haul supports infill development to help local communities lower their carbon footprint. Our adaptive reuse of existing buildings reduces the amount of energy and resources required for new-construction materials and helps cities reduce their unwanted inventory of unused buildings.
