U-Haul Offers 30 Days Free Self-Storage to Eastern Missouri Residents Affected by Floods

May 2, 2017

U-Haul Company of St. Louis is offering 30 days of free self-storage and U-Box container usage to residents of Eastern Missouri who have been or will be impacted by flood conditions in the region.

Major flooding has led to the closing of numerous roads and caused water damage in some areas. Valley Park Mayor Michael Pennise has issued a mandatory evacuation for residents.

“The Meramec River continues to rise and families are already beginning to evacuate,” U-Haul Company of St. Louis president Steve Langford said. “We want to support our communities in any way we can. These people deserve a safe and secure place to store their belongings.”

Families needing more information about the 30 days self-storage assistance should contact the nearest participating location:

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

U-Haul stores offer needed supplies to help with storm recovery like boxes, tarps, propane and propane tanks. U-Haul urges customers to ensure their tanks are topped off since propane is good to have in the event of long-term power outages.
