30 Days Free Storage Offered after Tornadoes in Kentucky, Tennessee

Dec 13, 2021

Six regional U-Haul® companies are offering 30 days of free self-storage at a combined 14 facilities across two states to persons impacted by the tornadoes that devastated multiple communities last Friday night.

Many residential and commercial properties sustained damage or were destroyed in the storms. Numerous fatalities were reported. Thousands remain without heat and water. Accessibility to local storage units can play a small part in the recovery process.

Among the participating stores is U-Haul of Paducah, just 25 miles north of Mayfield, where a tornado tragically leveled much of the western Kentucky town.

“These tornadoes tore through homes and businesses in Kentucky and Tennessee, and impacted a lot of lives,” said Christopher Minnich, U-Haul Company of Louisville president. “We want to help. As our communities begin the long rebuilding process, we have the ability to provide a secure place for our neighbors to store their possessions at no cost for one month.”
