BUFORD,
Ga., May 24, 2024 /PRNewswire/ --
U-Haul® is announcing plans for a state-of-the-art
retail, moving and self-storage facility at NE Peachtree Industrial
Boulevard in North Buford.
U-Haul Moving & Storage of North
Buford is scheduled for completion by spring 2026. The
property was acquired in March.
The facility will house a modern retail showroom and more than
800 indoor, climate-controlled self-storage units with high-tech
security features at affordable price points. Customers will also
have access to truck- and trailer-sharing services, towing
equipment and professional hitch installation, U-Box®
portable storage containers, boxes and moving supplies, propane and
more.
Reserve equipment on the U-Haul app or contact Reservations at
1-800-GO-UHAUL.
"North Buford is expanding at a
rapid pace, and we are excited to be part of its development,"
stated Doug Weston III, U-Haul
Company of Atlanta North president. "To keep up with the storage
and mobility demands of an expanding customer base, U-Haul is proud
to build a beautiful center and create a lot of quality jobs in the
process."
Weston intends to hire up to 30 Team Members to staff the new
store. U-Haul will look to hire locally to promote job growth
within the Buford community.
U-Haul, honored as a Best for Vets employer by The Military Times,
actively recruits veterans and gives them preference in the hiring
process. Find U-Haul careers at uhauljobs.com.
U-Haul currently owns and operates 76 Company stores in
Georgia, including two in
Buford:
- U-Haul Moving & Storage of Buford Drive at
3804 Buford Drive
- U-Haul Moving & Storage at Mall of Georgia at 3556 Buford Drive
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.
