like boxes, tarps, propane and propane tanks. U-Haul
urges customers to ensure their tanks are topped off
since propane is good to have in the event of long-term
power outages.
U-Haul offered one month of free self-storage on March 12 to college students whose school
schedules were interrupted by COVID-19. That offer is ongoing
across the U.S. and Canada.
As an essential service provider, U-Haul remains open to meet
the needs of customers and communities. For details on what U-Haul
