U-Haul® is offering 30 days of free self-storage at three of its facilities to residents impacted by the tornado and severe storms that slammed central Alabama on Monday night.
Buildings in Fultondale collapsed and numerous injuries, including one fatality, were reported. Accessibility to local storage units can assist in the community’s recovery process.
“The damage from this tornado and the associated storms is widespread and significant,” said Scott Fall, U-Haul Company of Central Alabama president. “As people begin their clean-up efforts, we want to offer them a secure place to store their belongings at no cost for one month.”
