MESA, Ariz., June 17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- U-Haul® is offering
30 days of free self-storage and U-Box® container usage to
residents impacted by the Bush Fire in Tonto National Forest.
The fire has burned approximately 65,000 acres with no
containment. It is the largest active burning fire in the
country.
The Maricopa County Sheriff's
Office told Sunflower area residents to evacuate Tuesday after
Gila County officials evacuated
communities in Tonto Basin and
Punkin Center on Monday.
"As the Bush Fire spreads, people are having to leave their
homes and move to other parts of the Valley," stated Andy Smith, U-Haul Company of Eastern Arizona president. "The fire is
creating an immediate need for people to protect their belongings.
We want to help any displaced families by providing free
self-storage for one month through our disaster relief
program."
U-Haul has made 20 facilities in the East Valley available to
offer assistance. People seeking more information about the U-Haul
disaster relief program or needing to arrange 30 days of free
self-storage should contact the nearest participating location:
