AB&C Mini Storage Knows the ABC's of Moving with U-Haul

JACKSONVILLE, Ill., Feb. 11, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- It may appear that AB&C Mini Storage owner Mike Wankel didn't search too hard for the letters to comprise his company's name.

But upon learning his children's names are Ashley, Brooke, and Caleb, customers tend to see there is a rhyme and reason to the ABC's of Wankel's operation.

There was only one name to call when Wankel decided to expand his business with moving equipment and supplies: U-Haul. AB&C Mini Storage now offers trucks, trailers and towing equipment, support rental items, in-store pick-up for boxes and after-hours drop-off at its 901 E. Morton location.

AB&C Mini Storage is open from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday-Friday and 9 a.m.-noon Saturday. Reserve U-Haul items here by visiting http://www.uhaul.com/Locations/Truck-Rentals-near-Jacksonville-IL or calling (217) 243-3298 today.

Wankel and his wife, Lori, have four different storage locations scattered throughout the Central Illinois town of Jacksonville. The 901 E. Morton facility has been in operation since 1996 and there are eight storage buildings on site.

With so much space, Wankel decided it made perfect sense to partner with U-Haul. Customers' needs for storage often require renting trucks and purchasing boxes, so packaging those services became an easy call.

Aside from being family-orientated, AB&C Mini Storage is known for getting involved in the community. The Wankels work with Toys for Tots to provide toys to children whose parents couldn't otherwise provide Christmas gifts.

Mike and Lori grew up in the Jacksonville area and eventually settled there to raise their family. Because of those ties, the Wankels are strong believers in aiding the community and are there to stay.

Pam Meier, the office manager at AB&C Mini Storage, is eager to take your call and help with all of your storage and moving needs.

AB&C Mini Storage is a great place to become U-Haul Famous. Take your picture in front of a U-Haul product, send it in and your face could land on the side of a U-Haul truck. Upload your photo through Instagram using #uhaulfamous, or go to www.uhaulfamous.com to submit photos and learn more.
