U-Haul® has purchased the Advantage Storage facility at 1012 E. Navajo Drive to better meet the moving and self-storage demands of Hobbs residents. Now U-Haul Storage of East Hobbs, the property was acquired on Jan. 4. It is less than a mile from U-Haul Moving & Storage of Hobbs at 101 W. Navajo Drive.

Thanks to the 6.62-acre acquisition, U-Haul customers now have access to 468 additional self-storage units. U-Haul is also offering truck and trailer rentals, boxes and moving supplies, towing equipment and more at the East Hobbs store. Storage customers can attain extended-hours access.

Plans also call for a U-Box® storage warehouse on the property. The added building will be used to store hundreds of portable moving containers. Make reservations on the U-Haul app or contact Reservations at 1-800-GO-UHAUL.

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.
