"We are thrilled to take ownership of the three self-storage properties. Now we are better equipped to meet families' current and future needs," stated Shawn Odden, president, U-Haul Company of Fargo.

Services including extended office hours, no deposit or administration fees, free online account management are just some of the features that will make this a go-to location for the surrounding neighborhood.

The U-Haul Storage of Fargo-South, also purchased from BTE Rentals & Storage, is located at 5523 53^rd Ave. S., Fargo, N.D. Included in the purchase is a third acquisition of an adjacent 3.67-acre parcel for future expansion.

The site provides 229 self-storage rooms including five climate-controlled rooms for customers who are looking for the ideal solution for storing their personal or business-related items.

"When looking for a self-storage provider, families can enjoy the finest in moving and self-storage services with increased convenience and shorter distance to travel from their office or home," Odden continued. "Customers who rent a U-Haul moving van, trailer or U-Box moving pod for a one-way move can now enjoy one month of free storage before or after their move," he offered.

Both U-Haul Fargo facilities will offer traditional equipment truck and trailer rentals but also will be selling a wide variety of environmentally friendly packing supplies: boxes made out of recyclable materials, 100 percent biodegradable packing peanuts and moving pads made from recycled denim. Also on site will be a Take a Box/Leave a Box display, which allows customers or anyone in the community to leave moving boxes or unwanted electronic boxes for the next customer to reuse for free, instead of throwing them away or recycling them.
