U-Haul Offering 30 Days Free Storage to Upriver Fire Victims and Evacuees

U-Haul^® is offering 30 days of free self-storage and U-Box^® container use at six Company facilities in Spokane County for residents displaced or impacted by the Upriver Fire.

The wildfire east of Spokane has burned more than 200 acres and damaged or destroyed at least 15 homes, according to reports. Containment was 10% as of Thursday. Evacuation orders remain in place for communities nearest the fire perimeter.

Access to self-storage units and portable storage containers is essential to the communities when natural disasters strike. U-Haul is ready to help anyone affected by the wildfires 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.

Please reference the list below for U-Haul storage locations participating in the disaster relief program. Stop by any of these facilities or call the nearest center to arrange 30 days of free storage.
