U-Haul Acquires Self-Storage Property at Lake Lanier to Meet Demand

U-Haul® has announced the acquisition of the former Lazy Day Storage® facility at 6619 Lanier Islands Parkway in Buford, where it is now meeting the self-storage needs of Gwinnett County.

The four-acre property, now U-Haul Moving & Storage at Lake Lanier, was acquired July 10. It is conveniently located just steps from the man-made lake. The facility features 307 drive up self-storage units as well as U-Haul truck and trailer sharing, towing equipment and moving supplies.

Normal business hours are 9 a.m.–5 p.m. Tuesday–Saturday. Reserve self-storage or moving equipment on the U-Haul app.

Well over 10 million guests visit Lake Lanier annually to enjoy water sports like jet-skiing, sailing and paddleboarding, among other leisurely outdoor activities.

“We’re very excited to be part of the growing Lake Lanier community,” said Doug Weston III, U-Haul Company of Atlanta North president. “Our local team is ready to support customers in need of our trusted, affordable self-storage and mobility solutions.”

Customers can find a full line of U-Haul products and services at two additional stores in the Buford area:

• U-Haul Moving & Storage of Buford Drive at 3804 Buford Drive
• U-Haul Moving & Storage at Mall of Georgia at 3556 Buford Drive

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 recently named the Best in Biz gold winner for the Most Environmentally Friendly Service of the Year.
