U-Haul® is offering 30 days of free self-storage and U-Box® container usage to Greater New Orleans residents impacted by Thursday’s flooding.
Heavy rains have inundated roads and caused many homes and businesses in the area to take on inches of floodwater.
“The north shore of Lake Pontchartrain and the river parishes have been flooding since Thursday evening and many residents are needing a place to securely store their belongings,” said Patrick Allen, U-Haul Company of Southern Louisiana. “U-Haul is an essential service provider and we want to make sure our neighbors are cared for.”
