U-Haul is stepping up to help millions of college students in the process of unexpectedly relocating amid the nationwide outbreak of COVID-19.

U-Haul President John “JT” Taylor announced last week that the moving and storage company will extend 30 days of free self-storage at U-Haul-owned-and-operated facilities to help college students impacted by unforeseen schedule changes at their universities.

The free month applies to new customers with college IDs in the United States and Canada. The limited time offer subject to availability. Contact stores, which can be located here, by phone or visit in person to take advantage of the offer.

“We don’t know how every student is affected. But we know they are affected,” Taylor said in a statement. “More and more universities are giving instructions to leave campus and go home. Students and their parents are in need of moving and storage solutions. We have the expertise and network to help, and that’s exactly what we’re going to do.”

The 30 days free self-storage offer is typically extended to communities impacted by a natural disaster. This marks the first time U-Haul has extended the offer company-wide.

A growing number of schools, including most in Michigan, are evacuating campuses in favor of online instruction to help limit the spread of COVID-19.

U-Haul’s 22,000 locations spread across all 50 states and 10 Canadian provinces make it uniquely suited to assist with the problem of displaced students looking to get home, the company said.

U-Haul also accepts third-party pay, which enables family members to fund their loved one’s moving and storage needs.
