EAST PEORIA, Ill., March 15, 2024 /PRNewswire/
-- U-Haul® has acquired the Duke Mini Storage
facility at 401 Sabrina Drive to better meet the moving and
self-storage needs of its East
Peoria customers.
The property, now U-Haul Moving & Storage of East Peoria, was acquired on Feb. 20 and is remotely operated by U-Haul Moving
& Storage of Morton at 1075 W.
Jackson St.
Thanks to the 5.41-acre acquisition, U-Haul customers have
access to an additional 58 self-storage units and 99 covered RV,
boat and vehicle storage spaces in East
Peoria. U-Haul is also offering truck and trailer rentals,
boxes, moving supplies, towing equipment and more. Storage

"Bringing the trusted U-Haul brand to East Peoria residents is part of our growth
strategy," said Zareh Minasian,
U-Haul Company of Central Illinois
president. "The Peoria area is in
the heart of Illinois and always
attracts new residents. We want to offer the most affordable and
convenient self-storage options to our customers. Taking over an
existing self-storage facility will make for a seamless
transition."
U-Haul continues to benefit the environment through its
shared-use business model. Truck and trailer sharing enables
communities to share moving equipment so that families and
individuals don't need to own large-capacity vehicles to transfer
belongings. Sustainability initiatives like U-Haul Adaptive Reuse
(the preserving and repurposing of existing buildings for new
stores), truck modifications to improve fuel economy, and plastic
Ready-To-Go Boxes® that are shared hundreds of
times before being recycled are among the many ways U-Haul
promotes green business. U-Box Load Share, the Company's latest
sustainability program, was just named the 2023 Best in Biz gold
winner for the Most Environmentally Friendly Service of the
Year.
