U-Haul to Produce Jobs, Self-Storage with Land Acquisition in San Antonio
SAN ANTONIO, Feb. 1, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- A new U-Haul® self-storage, retail and moving center is coming to San Antonio thanks to the recent 11-acre land acquisition at 7616 NW Loop 410.
The target completion date for U-Haul Moving & Storage of Ingram Park is early 2026. U-Haul acquired the property on Jan. 23.
The facility will include a three-story building with more than 750 indoor climate-controlled self-storage rooms with high-end security features at affordable price points. Customers will also have access to truck and trailer rentals, boxes and moving supplies, towing equipment and professional hitch installation, U-Box® portable storage containers, propane and more. This will be the 16th Company-owned and -operated store in San Antonio.
"San Antonio is a moving destination," said John Martinez, U-Haul Company of San Antonio West president. "For the third year in a row, Texas was named the No. 1 U-Haul Growth State. The amount of U-Haul traffic coming into Texas, and into San Antonio, is substantial. We have to continue expanding our footprint to serve the influx of residents and their self-storage needs."
Reserve equipment on the U-Haul app or contact Reservations at 1-800-GO-UHAUL.
U-Haul intends to hire 14 Team Members to staff the new store. U-Haul will look to hire locally to promote job growth within the San Antonio community. U-Haul, honored as a Best for Vets leading veteran-friendly employer by The Military Times, actively recruits veterans and gives them preference in the hiring process.

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. U-Box Load Share, the Company's latest sustainability program, was just named the 2023 Best in Biz gold winner for the Most Environmentally Friendly Service of the Year.
