Overview
U-Haul is a United States–based moving and self-storage rental company founded in 1945 and headquartered in Phoenix, Arizona.[1][2] U-Haul operates as part of U-Haul Holding Company (formerly AMERCO).[2]
Boycott
U-Haul is listed for boycott because U-Haul-branded rental vehicles have been reported as being used during immigration enforcement operations conducted by DHS components, including ICE. Local reporting on a late-September/early-October 2025 operation in Chicago described federal agents using U-Haul (and other rental) vehicles, including accounts of residents being placed into U-Haul vans during the raid.[3][4][5]
This listing is focused on the documented operational use of U-Haul vehicles in enforcement activity (i.e., equipment used on-scene), rather than a confirmed dedicated procurement contract between U-Haul and DHS/ICE.
Background
ICE and other DHS components rely on contractors and commercial vendors across logistics, transport, IT, facilities, and operational support. Even where services are provided through routine commercial rentals, the use of branded vehicles and services can materially support enforcement capacity. ICE List documents and, where applicable, boycotts companies whose goods or services are used in ways that materially support immigration enforcement operations.[4][3]
