CLARKDALE, Ariz., May 31, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- U-Haul® is unveiling plans for a
new retail, moving and self-storage center off State Route 89A and
Pine Shadows Boulevard in Clarkdale.
U-Haul Moving & Storage of Clarkdale is scheduled for completion by
summer 2026. The 9.18-acre property was acquired May 24 and will be the first U-Haul-owned and
-operated center in Clarkdale.
Plans call for a three-story building with a spacious retail
showroom and more than 700 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, towing equipment and professional hitch
installation, boxes and moving supplies, and more. There will also
be a U-Box® warehouse to house portable storage
containers.

Jessup plans to hire up to 14 Team Members to staff the new
store when ready. U-Haul will look to hire locally to promote job
growth in the Clarkdale 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

"We are excited to be part of the Clarkdale community, which is known for its
rich history as a mining town," said James
Jessup, U-Haul Company of Northern
Arizona president. "There is a lot of new growth occurring
in this beautiful area of our state. It gives U-Haul the
opportunity to meet growing customer demand for convenient moving
and storage solutions."
Until the Clarkdale store is
ready, customers can find U-Haul moving and self-storage services
just three miles away at U-Haul Moving & Storage of Verde
Valley at 1650 E. Cherry St. in Cottonwood.
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.
