Below is a basic guide to help you calculate how much storage space you need.
 |
One and a half rooms worth of furniture and items, such as a bicycle, boxes, sofa, etc |
 |
 |
1 U-Box®
2,000 lbs or 300 cf |
 |
1 bedroom apartment |
|
 |
2 U-Boxes®
4,000 lbs or 600 cf |
 |
2 bedroom apartment |
|
 |
3-4 U-Boxes®
6,000 lbs/8,000 lbs or 900 cf/1200 cf |
 |
3 bedroom home |
|
 |
4-5 U-Boxes®
8000lbs/10,000 lbs or 1,200 cf/1,500 cf |
 |
4 bedroom home |
|
 |
5+ U-Boxes®
10,000+ lbs or 1,500+ cf |
These estimates are based on average sized furniture and average sized homes. Please keep in mind that oversized furniture or unusually full homes will require more storage space. The weight and cubic foot estimates shown here are based on the average of 7 pounds per cubic foot used by moving companies. No U-Box may be loaded with more than 2,000 pounds worth of items.
