Mar 20, 2021

Thanks to the cooperation and community support of U-Haul, and in conjunction with Quality Care Pharmacy, Cumberland County (Pa.) is operating a COVID-19 vaccine site at U-Haul Moving & Storage of Walnut Bottom Road.

U-Haul acquired the former Kmart at 1180 Walnut Bottom Road in July 2019. A section of property where self-storage has not yet been built out is being used to vaccinate residents of Carlisle and surrounding Pennsylvania communities.

“We are committed to supporting our communities and putting safety first,” said Kurt Hoffman, U-Haul Company of Harrisburg president. “Helping our neighbors get through this pandemic is a priority. We’re eager to help fight this virus by providing our U-Haul site to the county to serve as a vaccination hub.”
