U-Haul Moving & Storage of Hershey at 1000 Old W. Chocolate Ave. opened on Oct. 28. Located off Highway 422, it is about a 20-minute drive from Harrisburg. It is the Company’s first owned-and-operated store in Hershey.

The property was previously home to a small business that served as a U-Haul dealer location.

The 1.79-acre lot is now home to a state-of-the-art, four-story facility with 1,000 climate-controlled storage units featuring high-tech security features at affordable price points. Drive-in load/unload bays allow for storage customers to enjoy optimal convenience and protection from the weather.

U-Haul of Hershey also offers boxes, moving supplies, and green initiatives like the Take A Box, Leave A Box program.

Normal business hours are 9 a.m.-5 p.m. daily. Download the U-Haul app to reserve storage or contact general manager Darlene Sims at (717) 566-1372.
