At the heart of what we do is a culture of facilitating movement and providing solutions for do-it-yourself movers across North America. U-Haul has established itself as a leader in the moving and storage industry since its inception in 1945. The founders, L.S. 'Sam' Shoen and Anna Mary Carty, recognized the need for affordable and accessible moving options for families looking to relocate, and they embarked on a journey that would transform how people think about moving. Our mission has always been to make moving accessible to everyone, regardless of their circumstances. With over 20,000 locations and a fleet of approximately 176,000 trucks and trailers, we strive to meet the diverse needs of our customers by providing reliable and cost-effective solutions.
U-Haul not only rents trucks and trailers, but it also offers self-storage facilities, moving supplies, and various services tailored to different customer needs, including U-Box containers for secure storage and transportation. Our ever-evolving service line reflects our commitment to innovation and understanding the changing landscape of moving and storage. This commitment is further demonstrated through initiatives like U-Haul Truck Share 24/7, enabling customers to access moving vehicles at their convenience, and MovingHelp.com, connecting individuals with local labor for their moving needs. We pride ourselves on being stewards of the environment, and our propane sales support alternative fuel options for our customers. With nearly 80 years in the business, U-Haul continues to foster a sense of community, demonstrating through our services that we truly care about the movers and their journey.
