U-Haul Supports Small Business, Partners with Southern Star Auto Group
KENTWOOD, La. (June 28, 2022) — U-Haul Company of Louisiana is pleased to announce that Southern Star Auto Group LLC signed on as a U-Haul® neighborhood dealer to serve the Kentwood community.
Southern Star Auto Group at 902 Ave. G will offer essential services like U-Haul trucks, trailers, towing equipment, support rental items and in-store pickup for boxes.
Normal business hours are 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday-Friday and 10 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday. Reserve U-Haul products at this dealer location by calling (985) 404-2044 or visiting https://www.uhaul.com/Locations/Truck-Rentals-near-Kentwood-LA-98944/012455/ today.
Southern Star Auto Group owner Huey Pierce Woodard Jr. is proud to team up with the industry leader in do-it-yourself moving and self-storage to better meet the demands of Tangipahoa Parish.
U-Haul has teamed with independent dealers to offer rental equipment to do-it-yourself movers since 1945. During these challenging times for small businesses, more than 21,000 dealers across the U.S. and Canada are generating supplemental income through their U-Haul affiliation. 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 mobility 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.
