Adaptive Reuse in San Francisco, CA at U-Haul Moving & Storage at Candlestick

Building History

Written in 1908, the song "Take Me Out to the Ball Game" featured the famous chorus of "buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jack." Coincidentally, just two years prior to writing that song, the founders of Planters Peanuts embarked on a journey that would make them a household name.

Twenty years later, in 1928, Planters expanded their company by building another factory in San Francisco. For 50 years, Planters occupied this gorgeous building in the Bay Area. Commuters on Highway 101 could see the Mr. Peanut sign on the top of the building as they drove by.

When Planters vacated the building in 1977, U-Haul moved in. Of course, demolishing a building with such character and history wasn't even considered. Following our long-standing sustainable business practices, U-Haul converted this building to a vital resource for the area.

The more than six-acre site features four buildings with various functions. One large building and part of a second are home to more than 1,900 storage rooms. The other two buildings on the property are used for maintaining our rental trucks, vans and trailers as well as housing our U-Box portable storage pods. In addition to all of the services that this facility provides San Franciscans, the location is also home to our San Francisco corporate offices.

More than 35 years later, U-Haul is a fixture in the San Francisco community. Our team takes pride in helping to make moving easier for anyone coming into or out of the area.
