“ WASHINGTON (7News) — The U.S. Secret Service detained a person Monday night after they reportedly drove a U-Haul truck into security barriers in D.C. Shortly after 10 p.m., Secret Service said the driver crashed their truck into security barriers on the north side of Lafayette Square at 16th Street. From a tweet in the article: “ Figured someone may have accidentally crashed until the U-Haul backed up and once again tried to break through the barriers.” It’s quite a large UHaul truck, but given the intellectual ability of most of the people here in the DC area, it’s probable...

More moving trucks left from California than any other state in 2022 for the third year in a row, while more Americans are flocking to Republican-led states like Texas and Florida, a new study published on Jan. 3 has found.The study was conducted by the moving truck rental company, U-Haul, and found that Texas, Florida, and the Carolinas were the preferred destinations for one-way moving trucks in 2022, with those states ranking as the top growth states on the annual U-Haul Growth Index.U-Haul’s Growth Index is compiled according to the net gain of one-way U-Haul trucks arriving in a state...

VIDEOThe arrest of the Patriot Front in Idaho on June 11 has sparked widespread skepticism. For some reason few seem to believe what is being presented on the news. Perhaps the Whitmer "kidnapping" plot in which the undercover feds outnumbered the clueless real participants by a ratio of about 2 to 1 might be a factor in this skepticism. Or could it also have been caused when the FBI declined to answer whether Ray Epps was an undercover fed when Senator Ted Cruz asked about this? Or could it also have been due to the fact that the January 6...

We've all been there before; too much junk to move and not enough help from friends and family. What do you do? Whatever it takes, supposedly, including shoving your SUV into the back of a U-Haul moving truck even if it doesn't fully fit. Surprisingly, this is the tale of a Washington driver—not Florida—who decided to transport what looks to be a '90s Honda Passport in the back of the rental box truck. They didn't make it to their destination, however, as a Washington State Patrol spotted the make-shift transporter and promptly pulled it over. A state trooper stopped the...

There are around 175,000 white and orange U-Haul rental trucks in the United States and Canada for do-it-yourself movers. And they all have something strange in common: Arizona license plates with the word "apportioned" slapped on them. An esoteric agreement between the 48 continental US states, Washington DC and all 10 Canadian provinces determining how big-rigs and other commercial vehicles that travel across state lines divvy up billions of dollars of license plate registration fees.Such vehicles — known as "apportionable vehicles" — are registered and licensed under what's known as the International Registration Plan (IRP), an agreement created between states...

U.S.—All across America, Conservatives are boldly standing up to fight the leftist takeovers of their states by packing up their U-Hauls and running away to red states as fast as they possibly can. "The left continues its march through our governments, institutions, and communities, and they must be stopped at all costs before they destroy the entire country," said local Conservative Greg Tookiepuggles as he loaded all his earthly possessions in a moving van headed for Texas. "That's why we must retreat to greener pastures where we will be safe and insulated from their corrupting influence and draconian regulations. That's...

A recent report from U-Haul revealed migration to southern states has continued and Texas was the top destination for those moving. “California and Illinois ranked as the states with the greatest one-way net loss of U-Haul trucks, and most of that traffic appears to have gone to Texas and Florida,” Fox Business reported on Friday.

Texas is the top destination for one-way U-Haul rental trips in 2021, while California topped the list for outward migration and even ran out of U-Haul trucks for people wanting to leave the state, a new report from U-Haul shows.The moving and storage rental company has a “U-Haul Growth Index,” which calculates the net gain or loss of one-way U-Haul trucks entering a state versus leaving that state in a calendar year.The southern states took the lead in the U-Haul Growth Index report, with Texas narrowly beating Florida as the top growth state of 2021. The Lone Star state notably...

MIAMI, FL—Tourists unloading from the ferry onto Liberty Island in New York Harbor were met with disappointment this week, as the pedestal upon which the Statue of Liberty once stood was empty. Instead, a stationery the size of a king bed lay on the pedestal with a message reading, “Fed up with New York, moving to Florida. - L. Liberty” “I had just clocked into my shift this morning and looked up to see she was gone,” said security guard Feldman Baxter, while complying with the city’s mandates of wearing three masks outdoors, standing 20 feet from anyone else, rubbing...

100 Percent Fed Up – Poll numbers for “81 million votes” getters, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, are in the toilet.Kamala’s inner circle has abandoned her faster than rats jumping from a sinking ship.Americans no longer trust our intelligence agencies, especially after the January 6th incident where people like former Oath Keepers AZ Chapter President Ray Epps, who spent two days calling on Trump supporters to join him at the Capitol instead of at the Elipse, briefly appeared on the FBI’s Most Wanted list only to disappear once a sufficient number of primarily Trump-supporting Americans were arrested for their role...

Shocking images show the moment Border Patrol agents thwarted a human smuggling operation in Texas, where they found 33 migrants crammed into a U-Haul in near-100-degree heat. The US Customs and Border Protection agents were alerted about 10 p.m. June 10 to suspicious activity related to a possible human-smuggling scheme near a McDonald’s restaurant in Van Horn, the agency said. They approached two vehicles, a Dodge Journey and the U-Haul box truck, and discovered “33 people who were close to perishing due to excessive heat and lack of fresh air in temperatures still hovering near 100 degrees.”

Each year, U-Haul tracks the number of one-way moving trucks that go to and from each state, and compiles the states in a list. The states at the top of the list are gaining the most people, while the states at the bottom are losing the most. This year's top and bottom 5: Top 5 "Gainers": Tennessee Texas Florida Ohio Arizona Top 5 "Losers": California Illinois New Jersey Massachusetts Maryland I wonder what could be motivating people to flee places like CA and IL, and move to places like TX and FL?

The Bail Project, whose employee Holly Zoller drove the U-Haul in Louisville that gave supplies to antifa, received up to $1M in federal COVID relief funds. National File reported yesterday that Holly Zoller, a professional “Bail Disruptor” for the Bail Project, was caught driving a U-Haul truck that gave out supplies to Antifa rioters in Louisville, including what looked like shields. The rioters were protesting the result of the investigation into the death of Breonna Taylor, and the lack of murder charges that resulted. The Bail Project has ties to a number of famous faces. The board of advisors include...

The U-Haul truck captured on video distributing riot gear for Louisville protesters following a grand jury decision in the Breonna Taylor case was reportedly tied to the Louisville Bail Initiative, a left-wing activist group stacked with George Soros Justice Fellows. Almost immediately after the grand-jury announcement, protesters swarmed a U-Haul truck in a parking lot and took out riot gear, weapons, gas masks, and anti-police signs to use during clashes with police. ... Multiple journalists outed Holly Zoller, a board member of a Louisville Bail Project, as the person who allegedly rented the U-Haul and supplied the riot gear to...

A Rochester man is “livid” after his business was targeted by protesters ostensibly outraged over the death of Daniel Prude, a black man who died about a week after an interaction with the Rochester Police Department (RPD), back in March. As more violent rioting took place Saturday night, lasting into early Sunday morning, protesters torched a store that encompasses a U-Haul service — a store owned by a black man — leaving at least three of the vehicles destroyed by the alleged arson.
