Why Become a Freight Carrier?

U-Box portable moving and storage containers are a fast-growing product line at U-Haul. When you deliver freight with U-Box, you are part of the U-Haul history of over 75 years of Making Moving Easier. We offer many benefits to freight companies, including:

  • Lengthy lead time and flexible transit times
  • High volume of partial truckload and LTL volume
  • Contracted lanes across the United States and Canada
  • Access to the auction board with freight that needs to be covered with spot rates

You Drive, We Load and Unload

When picking up and delivering U-Box containers, drivers do not have to assist with loading or unloading freight. A U-Haul team member will handle it!
