U-Haul at Fulton Industrial in Atlanta to Close after 36 Years
ATLANTA, Aug. 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- U-Haul at Fulton Industrial, a self-move store at 4375 Fulton Industrial Blvd. SW, is permanently closing its doors on Saturday.
U-Haul® plans to maintain ownership of the property and lease it to a new tenant. The facility has been serving DIY movers in Atlanta since 1984.
Customers of the Fulton Industrial location can find U-Haul products less than a half-mile away at U-Haul Moving & Storage at Fulton Industrial Gateway and I-20. This new facility at 4225 Fulton Industrial is site of the former Mosley Motel that U-Haul acquired in 2018. Customers have access to truck and trailer sharing, self-storage, U-Box® portable storage containers, moving supplies and boxes, towing equipment, hitch accessories, bike racks, propane and more.
Acquisition of the old Mosley Motel was driven by U-Haul Corporate Sustainability initiatives: U-Haul supports infill developments to help local communities lower their carbon footprint. The adaptive reuse of existing buildings reduces the amount of energy and resources required for new-building materials and helps cities reduce their unwanted inventory of unused buildings.
Local U-Haul Companies are always exploring opportunities for growth as they pursue means to better serve the needs of customers, but sometimes find it necessary to close or relocate stores. Reasons for closures can include: long-term strategic plans; physical plant limitations, including insufficient square footage; shifts in demographics; trends in migration; expansion of the U-Haul neighborhood dealer network; and proximity to other new or existing U-Haul stores.
As a result of the original U-Haul at Fulton Industrial store closing, nine Team Members will be let go.
As an essential service provider, U-Haul has remained open throughout the COVID-19 outbreak while offering contactless programs and enhanced cleaning protocols, including added steps for sanitizing equipment between customer transactions. U-Haul products are used daily by First Responders; delivery companies bringing needed supplies to people's homes; small businesses trying to remain afloat; college students; and countless other dependent groups, in addition to the household mover.
