Suddenly you get news that the move is no longer happening. Here&#8217;s what you need to do to cancel or modify your reservation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Ensure your moving <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/Truck-Rentals\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">truck<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/Trailers\/?utm_campaign=uhaulsm&amp;utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=trailer&amp;utm_content=20230727-howtomodifyor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">trailer<\/a>, or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/UBox\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">portable storage container<\/a> reservation is handy. Be sure to have stored it in a place you can easily remember; this can be on our app, an email confirmation or a screenshot of your order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There are different ways you can modify or cancel your reservation. Here are the options available:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Go into our app, sign in, and see your reservation from your account. A button will direct you to modify or cancel your truck, trailer or U-Box container.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Log into your U-Haul account <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/Auth\/OrderLookUp\/?utm_campaign=uhaulsm&amp;utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=trucks&amp;utm_content=20230727-howtomodifyor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">online<\/a> and do the same step as the mobile option.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Call your local U-Haul representative or at your pick-up <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/Locations\/?utm_campaign=uhaulsm&amp;utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=locations&amp;utm_content=20230727-howtomodifyor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">location<\/a> and tell them you need to modify or cancel your reservation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend canceling at least 24 hours prior, as this will help you avoid any penalties. If you find yourself in a situation where cancellation is necessary, you can always resort to visiting or contacting your nearby <a href=\"https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/Locations\/?utm_campaign=uhaulsm&amp;utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=locations&amp;utm_content=20230727-howtomodifyor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">U-Haul center<\/a> and talking to one of their representatives. Simply let them know you need to cancel a reservation, and they will gladly assist you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more moving tips, follow us on<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/uhaul\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> Facebook<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/uhaul\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/uhaul\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Twitter<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/uhaul\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pinterest<\/a>!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Life happens; it&#8217;s inevitable.
