U-Box® Delivery Method: Truck Delivery
For over 75 years, do-it-yourself movers have gone to U-Haul for their moving and storage needs. Now, U-Haul can bring its services to you. With U-Box® containers, U-Haul makes moving and storage portable.
U-Box containers take the stress off you for long-distance moving. The moving containers can be shipped to wherever you’re moving, held on your property for storage, and your belongings can be packed at your convenience.
One of the biggest differences between U-Box containers compared to other portable moving and shipping containers is U-Haul offers multiple delivery options for its moving containers. A popular option is truck delivery via the Truck Delivery choice.
How ‘Truck Delivery’ Works
When making a U-Box container reservation, you’ll be prompted to pick between Truck Delivery, Full Service Delivery & Load, Self Delivery, and Access at a U-Haul Location as your access option. With the Truck Delivery option, we’ll bring your U-Box containers to you. Simply tell us when and where you need your U-Box container(s).
You pick a date for us to drop off your U-Box containers to where you’re moving from. A U-Haul driver will bring your moving and storage containers on a flatbed truck and unload them using a forklift. The moving containers can be placed on any flat, level surface on your property.
Once your moving containers are packed, we will come to pick them up. Depending on how you set up your reservation, you can either ship the moving container(s) to your destination or store them at a local U-Haul facility. U-Box containers can stay on your property as well. Check with the laws and regulations for your city or town and HOA.
If you choose to ship your moving container(s), you’ll need to pick a future date to access them. We guarantee that your moving container(s) will arrive at your local neighborhood U-Haul location the day before you need access. By using the Truck Delivery option, we’ll give you a call to schedule a time to drop off your container(s) at their destination for you to unpack.
This delivery option is ideal if you:
- Want the convenience of delivery to your doorstep
- Want the convenience of packing and loading your containers on your time
- Don’t have a vehicle capable of towing a U-Box container
- Want to use a U-Box container for on-site storage
