Flood Recovery: U-Haul Offers 30 Days Free Storage to Hilary Victims

U-Haul® is offering 30 days of free self-storage and U-Box® container usage to residents in Southern California impacted by Post Tropical Cyclone Hilary, which began as Hurricane Hilary.

Seven U-Haul facilities across five regional companies are extending this disaster relief offer.

Hilary dumped record-breaking rains on Los Angeles and other regions of Southern California on Sunday. More than 17 million people have been under flood advisories.

Having accessibility to secure and dry self-storage is always beneficial to communities affected by natural disasters.

“Even as the rain begins to dissipate, officials are encouraging people to stay aware,” Yvonne Crawford, U-Haul Company of Los Angeles West president, stated. “U-Haul self-storage is always in demand before, during and after flood events as a safe haven. We are in a fortunate position to be able to help our neighbors. Our teams are ready to assist anyone in need.”

Participating Locations

The U-Haul disaster relief program applies to new self-storage unit rentals and is based on availability at each facility. People seeking more information or needing to arrange 30 days of free self-storage should contact the nearest participating facility:
