Hurricane Zeta Preparation: U-Haul Offers 30 Days Free Self-Storage

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

The storm is expected to make landfall on Wednesday.

“Zeta will be the 5th named storm to strike Louisiana this season,” said Patrick Allen, U-Haul Company of Southern Louisiana president. “Our neighbors are still recovering from the previous storms and with the renewed risk of flooding and storm surges, there is an immediate need for self-storage options.”
