Questions about the U-Pack service often revolve around what will fit inside the ReloCube (U-Pack's equivalent to a PODS container).  One of the questions we get most often (next to "will a mattress fit into a ReloCube?") is, "Will my sofa fit into a ReloCube?"  This is a little more difficult to answer than the mattress question - which we'll talk about in a future post - but only because sofas come in so many shapes and sizes. So pull out your measuring tape, it's going to require that you measure the length of your sofa to determine if it'll fit into the ReloCube.

Now, let's talk about the internal dimensions of the ReloCube.  It's 70" x 83" x 93" (DWH).  Here's an illustration of what it looks like inside: http://www.upack.com/moving-servi...

Finding Movers and Packers

The moving process can be stressful enough without having to worry about finding movers and packers on top of everything else. And considering they'll be handling all of your belongings, you don't want just any movers and packers. You should expect a labor crew that will pack your belongings carefully, then move them to your new home within a reasonable time frame. Some movers and packers don't live up to those standards; however, there are a few good moving companies out there that can do the job right.

If you're making a move cross country (or any long distance move), you probably don't have time to background check the thousands of crews that offe...

Need a Hand?

No matter the reason, there may be times in life when doing your own packing and loading is not an option. The self-move service price may look great, but doing the physical part of the move doesn't. Do you throw in the towel and go with a full service mover?  Sure they do it all – the packing, loading and driving - but what about the price? The cost of a full service mover can put a serious hurt on your pocket book - it might even hurt worse than the pain you've already got in your back. So what do you do?
