U-Haul Opens at Former Access 24 Storage and Wash in Saint John

SAINT JOHN, N.B. (May 1, 2023) — U-Haul® purchased the former Access 24 Storage and Wash facility at 1382 Hickey Road to better meet the moving and self-storage demands of Saint John residents.

U-Haul Moving and Storage of Loch Lomond offers 125 self-storage lockers. The property was acquired on April 18.

“This location was already a self-storage facility and a U-Haul dealer, so it’s a perfect transition for us,” said Devin Mitchell, U-Haul Company of Atlantic Canada president. “We’re pleased to be able to expand our reach in New Brunswick and bring our trusted brand to our neighbors in Saint John.”

Thanks to the four-acre acquisition, U-Haul customers also have access to mobility services like truck rentals and trailers, boxes and moving supplies, and much more. Storage customers can attain access to extended hours.

Contact U-Haul Moving and Storage of Loch Lomond at (506) 657-9509. Hours of operation are 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday-Friday and 9 a.m.-1 p.m. Saturday.

“It’s our mission to save customers time and money by being close to where they live,” Mitchell said. “People are flocking to New Brunswick and we’re going to be here to serve them. We’re going to provide a clean, secure and well-maintained storage product for new residents as well as our lifelong Saint John neighbors.”

U-Haul dealers in and around Saint John continue to be available to serve DIY movers. U-Haul has partnered with independent dealers to provide communities with accessible mobility since 1945. During these challenging times, more than 21,000 small businesses across the U.S. and Canada are generating supplemental income by partnering with U-Haul. When customers rent from their local U-Haul dealers, they are directly supporting small businesses in their community. Because there is no financial investment from dealers, they are not U-Haul franchises. They are simply small businesses with enough lot space to park U-Haul equipment and enough time to welcome more customers while meeting the mobility needs of their neighbors.
