U-Haul Offering 30 Days of Free U-Box Portable Moving and Storage to Northern California Residents Affected By the Growing King Fire

SACRAMENTO, Calif., Sept. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- U-Haul Company of East Sacramento is offering 30 days of free storage and U-Box portable moving and storage pods to residents of California who have been evacuated or need to move their belongings away from threatening fires.

With U-Box portable moving and storage, you can conveniently pick up our custom-designed trailer and take your U-Box pod with you. U-Haul also can store the U-Box pod in our secure warehouse or even pick up and deliver it to a location of your choice. 

In addition to the 30-days-free storage assistance being offered, people who need boxes can take advantage of the U-Haul Take a Box, Leave a Box Program. The program enables customers to return their reusable boxes and allows others to take them as needed – FREE. U-Haul encourages anyone who has any type of reusable box to drop it off at the nearest U-Haul location and allow another family to reuse the box, free of charge, instead of throwing the reusable box into the recycling bin.
