U-Haul Cooks Up New Location in Former Hostess Bakery Outlet

LAFAYETTE, Ind., June 3, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- U-Haul Company of Central Indiana has increased its network of moving and storage locations with the opening of U-Haul Moving and Storage of Lafayette.

Located on at 301 Sagamore Parkway South, also known as U.S. 52, this facility consists of a one-story 11,870 square foot brick building on 0.92 acres of land.

U-Haul Moving and Storage of Lafayette is open for business renting trucks and trailers and selling moving supplies. Future plans for this facility include the addition of self-storage, hitch installations and U-Box moving and self-storage containers.

Built in 1950, this facility previously operated as a Hostess Bakery outlet.

"People still come in from time to time looking for day-old bread at a bargain price," explained Curt Reigelsperger, marketing company president, U-Haul Company of Central Indiana. "We are proud to be updating the building to meet the demographics of this great neighborhood and still offer a bargain...a bargain for the do-it-yourself mover."

This is the first U-Haul store to call Lafayette home.

"In the past, people have had to travel to West Lafayette to get their moving truck," Reigelsperger continued. "This new location will provide a one-stop-shop for moving customers in the Lafayette community."

The acquisition of the Hostess Bakery facility was driven by U-Haul Company's Corporate Sustainability initiatives: U-Haul supports infill development to help local communities lower their carbon footprint. Our adaptive reuse of existing buildings reduces the amount of energy and resources required for new-construction materials and helps cities reduce their unwanted inventory of unused buildings.
