U-Haul Provides 30 Days Free Self-Storage to Residents Affected by Anaheim Hills Fire

FULLERTON, Calif. (Oct. 10, 2017) — U-Haul Company of Orange County is offering 30 days of free self-storage to residents who have been or will be impacted by the Anaheim Hills fire.

The Canyon Fire 2 has prompted thousands to evacuate and has affected more than 6,000 acres. According to the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, the fire is 5 percent contained as of Tuesday morning.

“Many of our neighbors have been forced to evacuate and there are more structures in harm’s way,” U-Haul Company of Orange County president Brandon Williams said. “In trying times, it’s important that we offer a safe place for Orange County residents to store their belongings.”
