LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Feb. 24, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- U-Haul Company
of Arkansas is offering 30 days of
free self-storage and U-Box container usage to residents who have
been or will be impacted by flooding across much of the state.
Severe storms and steady rains over the last several days have
flooded streets, backed up city drains and caused many homes to
incur water damage.
"We have had four days of torrential downpours," noted
Andrew Hicks, U-Haul Company of
Arkansas president. "The river
overflowed in Arkadelphia. In
Little Rock, Jacksonville and other areas, there has been
so much rain that the city storm drains can't handle it. We have
people in low-lying regions that are getting hit hard.
"We are just trying to help as many families in need as
possible. In times like this, we want to extend a hand and provide
our neighbors with a dry and secure place to protect their
belongings."

relief assistance or needing to make self-storage arrangements
