While Hurricane Milton is not likely to be as bad as Hurricane Helene for Georgians, U-Haul is continuing its free self-storage program for locals.

After Hurricane Helene and before Hurricane Milton, U-Haul announced it is now offering 30 days free self-storage and U-Box portable container use across Florida for those impacted by the storms.

Hurricane Milton has strengthened into a Category 5 hurricane as it crosses the waters of the Gulf of Mexico. U-Haul's offering help before landfall.

Hurricane Milton is expected to make landfall late Wednesday or early Thursday. Here are more options for evacuees who may not be able to find shelter in Georgia.

U-Haul is offering Floridians 30 days of free storage services. The disaster relief program is meant to help residents prepare for Milton and support recovery efforts for Helene.

The Category 5 storm prompted what could be Florida’s largest evacuation since Hurricane Irma in 2017, and officials say the time to prepare is running out.

Tampa Bay hasn’t been in the direct path of a major hurricane in over a century, but Hurricane Milton may change that. Hurricane scientists say Tampa Bay is “the city to worry about most” due to high vulnerability to flooding from climate change.
