MIDDLETOWN, N.Y., June 14, 2016 /PRNewswire/
-- Middletown
residents have called on their local U-Haul store at 381 Route 211
for truck and trailer rentals and moving supplies for 30 years.
U-Haul Moving & Storage of Silver Lake has been a staple of
the community since 1986. Until recently it lacked self-storage
options to offer customers. Thanks to the recent acquisition of a
1.93-acre abutting property along Neely Street, U-Haul is now
making 329 new self-storage units available for rent at this
location.
"For years, we had no way to offer storage solutions in this
area," U-Haul Company of Lower Hudson Valley president Patrick Keefe said. "Now the community can take
advantage of our clean, dry and secure storage products right in
their own neighborhood. This truly means added convenience for
everyone."
With the expansion, customers enjoy access to equipment rentals,
moving supplies, boxes, self-storage, professional hitch
installation, U-Box portable moving and self-storage containers and
much more. The renovated three-story, climate-controlled indoor
storage and U-Box building is ready to meet customer demand during
the busy summer moving season.
"The abutting property had become overgrown and unappealing
after sitting vacant for so many years," Keefe said. "The site was
being used for illegal dumping. So when residents saw U-Haul
acquire it and clean it up, they were very pleased with the
development.
"Reusing a piece of property that was once in disarray while
being able to expand our product and service line is very exciting.
The entire process has brought me closer to the residents of
Middletown and we've had such a
great response from the community. We plan to serve this area for
many years to come."
The Middletown expansion was
driven by U-Haul Company's Corporate Sustainability
initiatives: U-Haul supports infill development to help local
communities lower their carbon footprint. Our adaptive reuse of
existing buildings reduces the amount of energy and resources
required for new-construction materials and helps cities reduce
their unwanted inventory of unused buildings.
