U-Haul storage locations in 54 Florida cities are offering help for those who need space for stuff that needs to be put away as the path of Hurricane Dorian puts it on a Florida track.

Dorian-affected residents can get 30 days of free storage at 91 U-Haul locations around Florida, U-Haul International announced Thursday. The 54 cities include the metropolitan areas of Miami-Fort Lauderdale, Jacksonville, Tampa-St. Petersburg and Orlando, as well as Gainesville and Tallahassee.

“Hurricanes create an immediate need for secure locations where residents can store the belongings they want to protect,” said U-Haul Company of Eastern Florida President Cal Conner said. “As a member of so many Florida communities, we are in a unique position to help by extending our free disaster relief program to our neighbors throughout the state.”

To check availability, go to the U-Haul website, find the storage facility nearest you and call directly.
