In addition to the 30-days-free self-storage assistance being offered, people
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.
