Hurricane Ian Relief: U-Haul Offers 30 Days Free Storage in South Carolina, Georgia

CHARLESTON, S.C., Sept. 30, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- U-Haul® is offering 30 days of free self-storage at 22 facilities across South Carolina and Georgia where storm surge, flooding and strong winds from Hurricane Ian are expected to leave residents in need of recovery assistance.

"Ian has already brought devastation to our neighbors in Florida," said Tinessa Edwards, U-Haul Company of Coastal South Carolina president. "The threat of flooding in South Carolina is high as Ian makes landfall here. Storms of this magnitude create an immediate need for dry and secure self-storage.

"Our U-Haul family is willing and able to help by making our disaster relief program available to anyone in need."

U-Haul has also made 43 self-storage facilities across Florida available to offer free assistance.

The free month of self-storage services is available to customers renting new units and is subject to vacancy at each U-Haul facility.
