All other services were halted, resulting in five Team Members being let go. The facility continues to provide U-Haul Truck Share 24/7, a rental option allowing for self-pick-up and self-return of trucks via smartphone.

Local U-Haul Companies continuously explore opportunities for growth and sometimes find it necessary to close or relocate stores, shops, offices, and services. Reasons for such changes can include long-term strategic plans, physical site conditions, shifts in demographics, and proximity to other new or existing Company locations. This move reflects an operational adjustment to optimize U-Haul's network in the region.
