U-Haul is bringing the party to Marietta, GA for the Fourth of July. The company is holding a grand opening of a new facility it converted from a midcentury Chevrolet dealership. The dealership closed in 1988 and variety of other tenants moved in and out until U-Haul purchased the property in 2017.
The facility has been outfitted with 400 self-storage units. It is located at 900 Roswell St., along the route of the annual Marietta Fourth of July parade. U-Haul will be serving free lunch and giving out prizes to celebrate the holiday.
