Rental trucks, sure the fee might seem reasonable, if you're moving across town, but what if you're moving 400 even 500 miles away? Have you checked the price of gas lately? Go to upack.com to calculate just how much you would spend to put fuel in that rental truck.
Besides, what if you were involved in an accident? What if the truck breaks down? What if the rental truck is too big? You still pay for the whole truck whether you use all the space or not. Even worse, what if the truck is too small?
Do you drive 45 miles per hour on the interstate? Well that's what you'll be doing in a rental truck. Even if there's good weather and light traffic, it'll still take a while to get there. Plan to take extra money for meals and maybe a hotel stay.
The truth is, you're more likely to spend far more time and money on a rental truck than you ever would with U-Packthe safe, reliable, stress-free alternative.
Why would you want to drive a rental truck when you can travel comfortably, safely, and economically in your own vehicle at your own pace? Go U-Pack. Everything, including fuel, is included in one low price.
Are you shocked by the prices charged by full service movers? Well I am. U-Pack is the solution to the budget-busting expense of full service moving. Since you pack and load your own belongings, U-Pack offers significantly lower rates for our reliable and convenient moving service. Even if you hire someone to pack and load everything for you, you'll still save money when you go U-Pack. Hey, get another moving quote. Compare it to ours. You'll see.
And beware of moving brokers. Brokers don't move anything. Brokers don't own trucks. Brokers don't employ drivers. Brokers are simply middle men, which is why they rarely identify themselves as brokers.
U-Pack is not a broker. U-Pack is a service of ABF Freight System Inc., one of the oldest, most reputable motor carriers in North America. ABF has 4,000 trucks, 7,000 drivers, and a network of nearly 300 terminals all over America.
Go U-Pack. It's a smart move.
