U-Haul Offers 30 Days Free Storage to Flood Victims in Amarillo

AMARILLO, Texas, June 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- U-Haul® is offering 30 days of free self-storage and U-Box® container usage to Amarillo residents impacted by recent flooding.

Heavy rainfall flooded homes and properties on Wednesday evening. With the Lawrence Lake already over capacity, overflowing water caused road closures and evacuations.

Numerous families have been displaced, and homes will require repairs. Having accessibility to dry and secure self-storage during the clean-up process is always beneficial to communities affected by natural disasters.

"U-Haul self-storage is always in demand during flood events, and we are in a fortunate position to be able to help," stated Rusty Freeze, U-Haul Company of West Texas president. "Our team is ready to assist any of our neighbors who were forced to evacuate or need a dry space to keep their possessions during the recovery process."

The U-Haul disaster relief program applies to new self-storage unit rentals and is based on availability. People seeking more information or needing to arrange 30 days of free self-storage should contact the nearest participating facility:
