Job Description

U-Haul Holding Company, a leader in the moving and storage industry, is widely recognized for its commitment to providing exceptional service and innovative solutions to customers across the United States and Canada. Founded in 1945, U-Haul has grown to become a household name associated with moving and storage, offering a wide range of products that includes rental trucks, trailers, self-storage units, and moving supplies. With a dedication to customer satisfaction and operational excellence, U-Haul continuously seeks to foster a positive work environment that promotes career growth, stability, and employee wellness.

The Facility Housekeeper role at U-Haul's Norfolk, Virginia location plays an essential part in maintaining the cleanliness and welcoming atmosphere of the facility. This position is vital in ensuring that customers have a positive experience that aligns with U-Haul's high standards. Facility Housekeepers are responsible for cleaning storage units, hallways, restrooms, and other common areas through sweeping, vacuuming, wiping, and mopping. This hands-on role requires keen attention to detail, strong organizational skills, and a proactive approach to maintaining cleanliness and safety throughout the facility.

New hires in this position benefit from immediate pay with the ability to start working today and get paid the same day. Additionally, new employees are eligible for a bonus, enhancing the attractiveness of this opportunity. U-Haul offers career stability with opportunities for advancement, underscoring its commitment to employee development and long-term growth. The company also provides valuable on-the-job training, empowering Facility Housekeepers to gain relevant skills and progress within the organization.

This role involves physical activity, such as moving equipment up to 50 pounds and positioning oneself to reach different heights, and may require the use of protective clothing or gear like masks, goggles, gloves, or shields to maintain safety. The working environment includes potential exposure to chemicals and moving parts, so safety awareness and adherence to precautions are crucial.

As part of the company’s dedication to a healthy workplace, U-Haul has implemented a policy that prohibits hiring nicotine users in certain states, including Virginia. This measure supports the organization's culture of health and wellness for all team members.

Benefits for Facility Housekeepers include a comprehensive package such as health insurance, prescription plans, dental and vision coverage, life insurance, and supplemental insurances including critical illness and group accident insurance. Employees also have access to a 401k plan with stock options, paid holidays, vacation and sick days, subsidized gym memberships, and numerous discounts on technology products, cell phone plans, and travel accommodations. The provision of a 24-hour physician service for children and programs like the YouMatter Employee Assistance Program illustrate U-Haul’s commitment to holistic employee support.

U-Haul is proud to be an equal opportunity employer welcoming candidates from diverse backgrounds without discrimination. Individual accommodations are available throughout the hiring process, demonstrating respect and inclusivity for all applicants.

Overall, this position offers a stable and rewarding career path within a well-established company that values its employees, customer service excellence, and workplace health. Facility Housekeepers who join U-Haul will find themselves part of a supportive team dedicated to making every customer interaction positive by maintaining clean and safe facilities consistently.
