“We are excited to offer a new U-Haul storage location to the
north Minneapolis community,” said Lucy Aveen-West, U-Haul Company
of Northern Minnesota president. “Our goal is to consistently meet
the needs of so many that turn to U-Haul for residential mobility
and trusted storage products. West River Road is a convenient
location for our customers who have been traveling farther for our
services.”
Aveen-West intends to hire as many as eight Team Members to
staff the facility. U-Haul will look to hire locally to promote job
growth within the Minneapolis community. U-Haul, founded by a WWII
Navy veteran and honored as a Best for Vets employer by The
