MONTREAL, Quebec, May 5, 2017 /CNW/ -- U-Haul Companies of Eastern Quebec and Western Quebec are offering 30 days of free-self storage and U-Box container usage to residents in and around Montreal who have been or will be impacted by flooding.

Greater Montreal has taken on extensive water due to heavy rains. Flooded streets and homes in several municipalities have created the need for secure and dry self-storage options where people can keep their possessions.

"These rising water levels continue to plague many of our communities," said Claude Boucher, U-Haul Company of Western Quebec president. "Residents are being evacuated and we are expecting more rain this weekend."

Joanne Adams, U-Haul Company of Eastern Quebec president, said: "We are a strong supporter of our local communities, so we are happy to help by offering 30 days of free self-storage. These families deserve a safe place to store their items."

Families seeking more information about the 30 days free self-storage assistance or needing to make self-storage arrangements should contact the nearest participating store:

U-Haul stores offer needed supplies to help with storm recovery like boxes, tarps, propane and propane tanks. U-Haul urges customers to ensure their tanks are topped off since propane is good to have in the event of long-term power outages.
