California Wildfires: U-Haul Offers Free Storage at 92 Centers across L.A.

Jan 9, 2025

In response to the devastating fires impacting residents across Greater Los Angeles, U-Haul® has made 92 Company facilities in Southern California available to offer its 30 days free self-storage and U-Box® container disaster relief program to help evacuees and affected families.

The Palisades and Eaton Fires have destroyed hundreds of homes and displaced thousands of people. The Hurst and Lidia Fires are burning northeast of L.A., while the Sunset Fire is ablaze in West Hollywood.

“I cannot put into words the devastation that I have witnessed firsthand,” said Chris Piedra, U-Haul Area District Vice President. “People are hurting and in need of help. U-Haul is part of these communities, and if we can help our neighbors in this process, we are going to do so.”

The 30 days free offer applies to new self-storage and U-Box rentals and is based on availability at participating U-Haul-owned and -operated locations. Please reference the cities below with participating stores and contact your nearest U-Haul marketing company office to arrange storage services.
