Residents Get 30 Days At Three Facilities
It is making three facilities available to offer 30 days of free self-storage and U-Box container usage to residents affected by the Anchorage earthquake.
The earthquake struck Friday morning just outside of Anchorage and caused major infrastructural damage to homes, buildings and roads throughout the city.
“People have had ceilings fall in, furniture fall over and the safety of their homes compromised,” explained John Norris, U-Haul Company of Alaska president.
“This event has created a need for a secure place where people can stow their belongings while they prepare aftershocks and the rebuilding process. We want our neighbors to know that we’re here to help. Our disaster relief program is one way we can give back to the community.”
People seeking additional information or needing to arrange for 30 days free self-storage should contact the nearest participating U-Haul facility:
