SIOUX
FALLS, S.D., April 16,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- U-Haul® broke
ground last week on a new retail, moving and self-storage facility
at 3500 Powder House Road.
U-Haul Moving & Storage of Veterans Parkway is scheduled for
completion by early 2025. The center will enable U-Haul, the
industry leader in DIY moving and self-storage, to better meet the
needs of its growing customer base in Minnehaha County.
The eight-acre property will host a pair of three-story
buildings, each encompassing 700 climate-controlled self-storage
units (1,400 rooms total) with 24-hour customer access.
Units will have high-end security features at affordable
prices.
Plans include a separate warehouse to hold 1,250 mobile storage
containers. U-Box® containers can be delivered and
picked up at your door, packed in your timeframe, and stored in a
secure warehouse until you are ready to receive your
belongings.
In addition, customers will have access to moving trucks,
trailers, boxes and packing supplies, professional hitch
installation and towing equipment, propane and much more. Reserve
equipment on the U-Haul app or contact Reservations at
1-800-GO-UHAUL.
"We're excited to expand our presence on the east side of
Sioux Falls, especially given the
tremendous commercial and residential growth in the area," said
U-Haul Company of Fargo president
Shawn Odden, whose region includes
North and South Dakota. "Our new
center will not only create exciting career opportunities but serve
as the city's premier facility for those seeking trusted moving and
storage solutions."
U-Haul intends to hire up to 20 Team Members to staff the store
when it is ready. U-Haul will look to hire locally to promote job
growth within the Sioux Falls
community. U-Haul, honored as a Best for Vets leading
veteran-friendly employer by The Military Times, actively recruits
veterans and gives them preference in the hiring process. Find

U-Haul continues to benefit the environment through its
shared-use business model. Truck and trailer sharing enables
communities to share moving equipment so that families and
individuals don't need to own large-capacity vehicles to transfer
belongings. Sustainability initiatives like U-Haul Adaptive Reuse
(the preserving and repurposing of existing buildings for new
stores), truck modifications to improve fuel economy, and plastic
Ready-To-Go Boxes® that are shared hundreds of
times before being recycled are among the many ways U-Haul
promotes green business. U-Box Load Share, the Company's latest
sustainability program, was just named the 2023 Best in Biz gold
winner for the Most Environmentally Friendly Service of the
Year.
