U-Haul Provides 30 Days Free Self-Storage to Eastern Florida Storm Victims

STUART, Fla. (Aug. 1, 2017) — U-Haul Company of Eastern Florida is offering 30 days of free self-storage to residents who have been or will be affected by the storms associated with Tropical Depression Emily.

Many residents are without power and rainfall has impacted much of Florida.

“These storms develop fairly quickly,” U-Haul Company of Eastern Florida president Cal Conner said. “That’s why it’s so important that people are prepared and why U-Haul is happy to help by offering families a dry place to store their belongings.”
