UHAL U Haul Holding Company

58 stores across the Chicago metro area and northern Indiana will offer a month of free storage services on new rentals

U-Haul® is offering 30 days of free self-storage and U-Box® container usage to residents affected by the powerful storms and tornadoes that devastated Chicagoland and northwest Indiana.

The National Weather Service stated seven tornadoes touched down across Chicago metro, Sugar Grove, Oswego, Manhattan and Joliet on Monday night. Countless homes were damaged or destroyed. Power lines were taken down by the intense storms.

Access to dry and secure self-storage lockers and portable storage containers is essential for communities during the recovery process.

Rick Rottweiler, U-Haul Area District Vice President of the Chicagoland area, has made 58 facilities in Illinois and northern Indiana available to extend the U-Haul disaster relief program with a month of free storage services.

“Many families were impacted by the severe weather that came through the Chicagoland area and northwest Indiana,” Rottweiler said. “We are a longstanding part of these communities and want to help. U-Haul would like to extend a hand to all those that could use it during this time.”

The 30-day free disaster relief program applies to new self-storage and U-Box rentals and is based on availability. U-Box containers can be delivered and picked up at no additional cost as part of the offer.
