Cheapest Way to Move Cross Country

Finding the least expensive way to move across the country

A cost-effective way to move is easy to find when going across town, but it takes more planning and research to go across the country. 

Rental trucks are cheap for in-town moves, but fuel costs add up fast the farther you drive. And full-service companies might offer to handle everything — but at a high price. 

Is there a way to get a budget-friendly move without sacrificing service? Fortunately, there’s U-Pack®, a DIY moving service equipped to offer cheap cross-country moves you can count on. 

How U-Pack offers the cheapest cross-country moves

While full-service may be an easy way to move across the country, it certainly isn’t cheap. U-Pack helps you save money on moves across the country while still providing excellent service.

DIY model saves money on moving labor

We’re a DIY service where you save money by handling packing, loading and unloading yourself. We can also refer you to local moving crews for assistance at a fraction of the cost of full-service solutions.

Flexible equipment options for cross-country moves of all sizes

U-Pack savings can be significant over full-service movers, whether you want to spend less to move a large household or find the cheapest way to move a one-bedroom apartment across the country.

We offer space in a 28’ moving trailer, down to a minimum of 5 linear feet, or ReloCube® moving containers. You only pay for the space you use, and the weight of the shipment is not a factor in the price.

Nationwide efficient shipping network

U-Pack’s primary transportation provider, ABF Freight®, transports several ReloCubes at once to keep costs lower.

If you move with a U-Pack moving trailer, commercial goods are loaded in the free space past the bulkhead (divider wall) and shipped to the same destination. This lets you save money on the overall shipment by sharing the transportation costs with businesses.
