PHOENIX, Aug. 29, 2008 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The U-Haul Companies of Eastern and Western Arizona have joined together to offer 30 days of free storage to Phoenix area families who have been affected by the wind and rain caused by last night's storms.
In addition to the 30-days-free self-storage assistance being offered, families needing 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.
Families needing more information about the 30-days-free self-storage assistance program and the Take a Box, Leave a Box Program should contact the following storage facilities.
