Adaptive Reuse in Salisbury, MA at U-Haul Moving & Storage of Salisbury

Serving U-Haul customers since 1995, this facility was built through Adaptive Reuse of an existing building.

Building History

In 1956, Max Coffman opened an innovative style of shopping. Mammoth Mart was a discount department store chain that spread across the Northeast. This was a revolutionary model for large department stores that sold everything a customer could want. When approaching the building, Marty the Mammoth could be seen smiling down at customers from the recognizable signs. Unfortunately, Mammoth Mart filed for bankruptcy in 1969. Then in 1978, the chain was bought by King's Department Store. The chain was handed off a few more times, until U-Haul purchased this location in 1995 and converted it into a storage and dispatch facility.
