The Fourth of July holiday is also referred to as Independence Day and has been a federal holiday in the U.S. since 1941. In 1776, in the early days of the American Revolution (1775-1783), representatives from the 13 colonies formed the Continental Congress and, on July 2nd, voted in favor of independence from British rule. Two days later, on July 4th, they adopted the Declaration of Independence, which was drafted by Thomas Jefferson. Since that day, the Fourth of July has been celebrated as the first day of American independence. With a deep historical significance surrounding Independence Day, it is clear to see America pulling out all the stops with a grand national celebration. However, it is important to remember why we commemorate Fourth of July and to thank those who serve our country. US Storage Centers wants to thank all the brave men and women defending the freedom we all respectfully and richly enjoy. For those who are service members, be sure to take advantage of our military discount at your local US Storage Centers storage facility when you rent with us.
