R&M Self Storage is also now a member of the eMove Storage Affiliate Network, which means the facility can receive storage reservations from other storage affiliates anywhere in North America, and can also make storage reservations for customers moving to another province or state.
U-Haul offers R&M Self Storage a great way to showcase clean storage units to new customers moving into the community. For this reason, the Pennell family felt that the chance to partner with a first-tier company like U-Haul would be a great fit for their storage facility. The Pennells are thrilled to offer U-Haul products and services in order to increase the value of their self-storage facility and make R&M Self Storage a moving resource for the community.
"U-Haul just went hand and hand with our family-owned storage facility and it made sense to add truck and trailer rentals to our business," Pennell stated. "Adding U-Haul truck and trailer rentals will be very helpful to our customers. I made the decision to add U-Haul truck and trailer rentals along with moving supplies because of the well-established name and reputation U-Haul enjoys."
"U-Haul is proud to be associated with a quality independent business like R&M Self Storage," exclaimed Bruce Bennett, president, U-Haul Company of Atlantic Canada. "The Pennell family is a great example of the type of successful business relationship U-Haul has established in order to build and maintain a strong network of more than 14,000 independent dealers across North America."
