Tropical Storm Delta Preparation: U-Haul Offers 30 Days Free Self-Storage

Oct 5, 2020

U-Haul® is offering 30 days of free self-storage to southern Louisiana residents who stand to be impacted by Tropical Storm Delta.

The storm formed in the Caribbean Sea and is expected to strengthen into a hurricane before making landfall on Friday.

“Residents should look ahead and begin putting their emergency plans into action,” said Patrick Allen, U-Haul Company of Southern Louisiana president. “In our region, the risk of flooding and storm surges creates an immediate need for secure self-storage locations. U-Haul is able to help our neighbors by offering this disaster relief assistance at no cost for one month.”
