U-Haul Offers 30 Days Free Self-Storage to Frederick Flood Victims

May 18, 2018

U-Haul Company of Baltimore is offering 30 days of free self-storage to residents impacted by flooding in Frederick.

Steady rains and flash floods shut down roads and also caused many homes to incur water damage.

“Some communities were seeing six inches of rain in a single hour,” U-Haul Company of Baltimore president Mike Finkelstein notes. “Frederick Mayor Michael O’Connor has issued a state of emergency as more rain is expected in the forecast.”

“There are tons of affected families and we want to offer a helping hand and provide our communities with a dry and secure place to store their possessions,” U-Haul Moving & Storage of Frederick general manager Cheryl Murphy said.

U-Haul stores also offer needed supplies to help with storm recovery like boxes, tarps, propane and propane tanks. Customers should top off their tanks since propane is good to have in the event of long-term power outages.

U-Haul is the industry leader in do-it-yourself moving and self-storage with more than 21,000 locations across the U.S. and Canada. In addition to its 30 days free self-storage disaster relief program, U-Haul is proud to be at the forefront of aiding communities in times of need as an official American Red Cross Disaster Responder.
