U-Haul® is offering 30 days of free self-storage and U-Box® container use at 49 Company facilities across most of northern Florida and southeast Georgia to residents impacted by the multiple wildfires burning across the region.
Homes and personal property are at risk from wildfires in Clay County, Putnam County and Nassau County in Florida, as well as Brantley County in Georgia.
Voluntary evacuations are in effect. More than 3,000 acres have been scorched by the merged Railroad Fire along the Clay-Putnam County line. A red flag warning remains in effect for 31 Florida counties as much of the state sits under extreme to exceptional drought conditions.
Access to self-storage units and portable storage containers is vital to the recovery process of communities after natural disasters strike.
U-Haul is ready to help anyone affected by the fires who needs a secure storage solution at no cost for one month.
The 30 days free offer applies to new self-storage and U-Box rentals and is based on availability at participating locations. The U-Box offer is for on-site storage at Company facilities; delivery is available for a modest fee.
