Compare U-Pack Moving to Moving Truck Rental Services

Let's start with equipment pick up and delivery:

• U-Pack brings a moving container or moving trailer right to your door for loading and unloading.
• You're responsible for pick up and delivery with moving truck rental. 

Now, how about equipment size?

• Space is always available with U-Pack.  You pay only for what you use. That means if you reserve 2 Cubes but fit everything into 1, you pay for 1. If you reserve more space than you need in the moving trailer, just subtract your per foot rate and pay for what you use. Need more space? Just load into what you need and add your per foot rate. Need another trailer? We'll bring it to you.
• With moving truck rental you pay for the entire truck, regardless of how much space you use. If you begin loading and need more space, you pick up another rental truck or leave stuff behind.

Who does the driving?

• Customers say one of the top reasons they choose U-Pack over moving truck rental is because we do the driving. So, it must be a big deal. U-Pack provides professional ABF drivers to safely move you from point A to point B. If you're moving long distance, traveling with children or pets, have a mountainous drive or have to maneuver through heavy traffic, letting someone else do the driving just makes sense.
• Simply put, with moving truck rental, you're the driver.

Who pays for fuel?

• Your U-Pack price includes fuel. So regardless of any fluctuations in fuel prices, your price stays the same.
• Of course, with moving truck rental, you're responsible for the fuel.  To figure out how much you should expect to pay fueling a rental truck, use the rental truck fuel calculator.

How does moving truck rental cost compared to U-Pack?

• Your U-Pack price includes taxes, tolls and the driver.
• Your moving truck rental price does not.
