Moving containers are provided by a number of different Container movers.  This list includes a number of companies including: U-Pack®, Door To Door®, UNITS®, BoxCart®, Smart Move®, Container Rental® and Pack & Ride®.  Since this is a relatively new market niche, we will briefly explore each of these container movers by reviewing their background their offerings:   

  

U-Pack®   

U-Pack is a division of ABF.  It offers the rental of either an empty trailer or a storage container it calls a Relocube.  The trailer is 28 feet long, 8 feet wide, and 9 feet high and comes equipped with complimentary loading ramps.  The good news is you can load it up as much as you want and you pay only for the space you use on the trailer.    

  

Their moving container option or Relocube is roughly 6 feet long, 8 feet high, and 7 feet wide.    

These sizes are good because they can fit within a single parking space and its height is 8 feet tall which means you can walk right in without fear of having to hit your head or banging it against the top of the container.  For these reasons, these are ideally suited for medium sized moves and if larger move is needed, you can simply order another moving container.  

  

Door To Door®  

Door To Door offers moving containers in the size of 8 feet long, 5 feet wide, and 7 feet high.  They state this size will accommodate a room and a half of furniture and their storage containers are also designed for moves.  These containers are ideally suited for placement on apartment parking spaces, streets, and uneven surfaces.
