If you\u2019re preparing for a move though, two to eight\ncontainers are optimal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make your move even easier, you can have your U-Box container shipped to wherever you are moving to or U-Haul can keep your portable storage container in a storage space until you are ready for it to be shipped.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Packing Options<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"512\" src=\"https:\/\/movinginsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/U-Box-Blog-Sept-5-1024x512.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-52320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/U-Box-Blog-Sept-5.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/U-Box-Blog-Sept-5-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/U-Box-Blog-Sept-5-768x384.png 768w, https:\/\/www.uhaul.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/U-Box-Blog-Sept-5-640x320.png 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you\u2019ve organized your items, it\u2019s time to start\npacking.
