U-Haul Offers 30 Days Free Storage to Texas Flood Victims at 37 Locations

AUSTIN, Texas — In response to the devastating floods impacting Central Texas, U-Haul is extending its vital disaster relief initiative to the Austin metropolitan area. This expansion means that residents in Austin and surrounding communities, grappling with property damage and the urgent need for secure storage, can now access 30 days of complimentary self-storage and U-Box® services. The offering, initially launched for San Antonio flood victims, now encompasses 21 U-Haul Company centers across metro Austin, adding to the 16 participating locations in the San Antonio region. This brings the total number of U-Haul owned and operated facilities providing this crucial support to 37.

The recent severe weather, marked by intense rainfall and the tragic flooding of the Guadalupe River, has inflicted significant hardship on many Texans, leading to loss of life and widespread property damage. In times of such crisis, readily available, dry, and secure storage solutions become indispensable for communities navigating the complex process of cleanup and recovery.

This goodwill gesture from U-Haul is applicable to new self-storage and U-Box rentals, subject to availability at participating locations. The U-Box portable container offer is specifically for on-site storage at Company centers.

For individuals seeking more information about the 30-day free storage offer or requiring assistance to arrange these services, U-Haul encourages them to connect with their nearest regional office or visit a local U-Haul self-storage facility. Here are the participating U-Haul Companies:
