U-Haul® is offering 30 days of free self-storage to Louisiana residents who stand to be affected by Tropical Storm Ida.
The storm is expected to become a hurricane before making landfall on Sunday.
“Hurricane watches are already in effect as we brace ourselves for this storm,” said Patrick Allen, U-Haul Company of Southern Louisiana president. “As our neighbors begin to put their emergency game plans into place, we want to provide them with a secure place to store their possessions for 30 days at no cost.”
