A new neighbourhood dealer for U-Haul Company of Canada Ltd. has now been established in Clearwater, the company announced on Jan. 23.
The new U-Haul dealer will be located at the Clearwater Shell at 380 Eden Road, and will offer essential services such as U-Haul trucks, trailers, towing equipment, moving supplies and in-store pickup for packing boxes.
A press release from the company states, “Clearwater Shell owner Venkatesh Modugu is proud to team with the industry leader in do-it-yourself moving and self-storage to better meet the demands of British Columbia.”
Normal business hours are 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily. To reserve U-Haul products at this dealer location, call 236-224-2005 or visit https://bit.ly/40OpW7o .
According to the company, U-Haul has teamed with independent dealers to offer rental equipment to do-it-yourself movers since 1945. More than 21,000 dealers across the U.S. and Canada are generating supplemental income through their U-Haul affiliation.
The company notes that when customers rent from a U-Haul dealer, they are “directly supporting an independent small business in their community.”
Additional information from U-Haul states that no financial investment is required to be a dealer: local affiliates are not U-Haul franchises. They are simply small businesses that have committed a portion of their lot space for U-Haul equipment, and a portion of their time to help meet the mobility needs of their neighbours.
