30 Days Free Self-Storage to Inland Northwest Residents Affected By Recent Wildfires

Jul 8, 2015

U-Haul Company of Inland Northwest is offering 30 days of free self-storage and U-Box portable moving and storage containers to residents of Northern Idaho, Spokane County and surrounding areas who have been evacuated or need to move their belongings away from recent wildfires.

With U-Box portable moving and storage, you can conveniently pick up our custom-designed trailer and take your U-Box container with you. U-Haul also can store the U-Box container in our secure warehouse or even pick up and deliver it to a location of your choice.

In addition to the 30-days-free storage assistance being offered, people who need boxes can take advantage of the U-Haul Take a Box, Leave a Box Program. The program enables customers to return their reusable boxes and allows others to take them as needed – FREE. U-Haul encourages anyone who has any type of reusable box to drop it off at the nearest U-Haul location and allow another family to reuse the box, free of charge, instead of throwing the reusable box into the recycling bin.

Families needing more information about the 30-days-free storage assistance program should contact the U-Haul locations listed below.

We will do our best to support them in this time of need.”
