Moving from one place to another can be a stressful experience. However, it can be made much easier with the right tools and resources. One of the most important decisions you’ll need to make is choosing how to transport your belongings. For decades, renting a U-Haul truck has been the default option for many people, but in recent years, UNITS Portable Storage containers have become a more popular and convenient option. In this blog post, we’ll explore why UNITS Portable Storage containers are a better and more convenient option than renting a U-Haul truck.
When you rent a U-Haul truck, you are responsible for driving it from one location to another. This can be stressful and time-consuming, especially if you’re not used to driving a large vehicle. With UNITS Portable Storage containers, there is no driving required. The container is delivered directly to your doorstep, and you can take your time packing it at your own pace. Once it’s packed, you simply call UNITS to come pick it up and transport it to your new location.
When you rent a U-Haul truck, you are limited to the amount of space in the truck. If you have more items than you anticipated, you may need to rent a second truck or make multiple trips. With UNITS Portable Storage containers, you can choose from a variety of container sizes, ranging from 8 to 16 feet, and you only pay for the space you use. This means you can choose the perfect size container for your needs and not have to worry about running out of space.
When you rent a U-Haul truck, you are on a tight schedule. You need to pick up the truck at a certain time and return it by a certain time. If you don’t return your U-Haul truck within this time frame, you will be charged extra fees. With UNITS Portable Storage containers, you can take as much time as you need to pack and unpack your belongings. You have the container for as long as you need it. Then you only need to call UNITS when you are ready for it to be picked up.
One of the biggest advantages of UNITS Portable Storage containers is that they are climate-controlled. This means your belongings are protected from extreme temperatures, humidity, and other environmental factors that can cause damage. U-Haul trucks do not offer climate-controlled storage, so your belongings are at risk of being damaged during transport.
You need to coordinate the pickup and drop-off of the truck, pack and load your belongings, drive the truck to your new location, unload your belongings, and return the truck. With UNITS Portable Storage containers, all you need to do is pack your belongings, and UNITS takes care of the rest. This makes the process safer, more convenient and less stressful.
In conclusion, if you’re planning to move, UNITS Portable Storage containers are a better and more convenient option than renting a U-Haul truck. With no driving required, flexible storage options, no time constraints, climate-controlled storage, and overall convenience, UNITS makes moving easier and more stress-free.
