The Best Way to Ship Household Goods

Ship belongings to another state the easy way

When you need to ship a birthday gift to a friend, going to a USPS® or UPS® location to ship the package is easy and usually doesn’t cost too much. However, when you need to ship all your household goods to another state, a parcel carrier isn’t the most practical way.  

That’s why it’s easier to choose a service like U-Pack®, which is designed to transport household goods out of state quickly and affordably. Keep reading to learn how we can help ship your belongings long distance.

Why is U-Pack the best option for shipping household items?

U-Pack is a DIY moving solution where you handle packing, loading and unloading (or hire moving labor for these tasks), and then we take care of the driving. We service all 50 states, Canada and Puerto Rico with top-notch customer service.  

Here are some other ways we stand out: 

Flexible equipment options 

U-Pack offers flexible options for long-distance moves with space in a 28-foot moving trailer or ReloCube® moving containers.  

Affordable prices 

With U-Pack, pricing is easy and affordable. Unlike parcel service or full-service movers, U-Pack costs are based on how much space your things take up in the moving equipment rather than the weight of your belongings. If you need more or less space, it’s available, and your price will be adjusted accordingly, down to a minimum of 5 linear feet in the moving trailer or a single ReloCube. 

Fast and safe transit 

With transit times averaging only 4-6 business days, you’ll get your things faster than other options. And with U-Pack, your items stay safe in the equipment right where you load them, secured with your own lock. 

U-Pack can also handle military HHG shipping 

You can make a Personally Procured Move with U-Pack, whether off or on base. The process works the same for military shipments as for regular household goods moving, and we can provide empty and full-weight tickets if you request them at reservation.
