The Best Local Customer Service

Being a locally owned and operated facility, we at UNITS® of Grand Rapids take pride in our commitment to making our customers’ lives easier. Each time you contact us, you’ll speak with our friendly, well-informed staff who are familiar with the Grand Rapids area and can help you get exactly what you need when you need it. As local residents, we strive to understand each customer’s requirements in order to deliver the best possible customer service – something you won’t find at a U-Haul® call center.

Pricing

The owners of UNITS® of Grand Rapids work hard to offer the most competitive pricing in the area. As a result, our average cost for moving and storage is typically lower than U-Haul®. We encourage you to get a quote from us and compare it to U-Haul® – you won’t be disappointed! UNITS® has no hidden fees, ever.

All Steel Construction

Our UNITS® containers are built to last, featuring all-steel construction, robust steel frames, and secure steel doors. They are the most weather-resistant containers available – no need for a tarp. In contrast, U-Haul® containers are made of wood, adhesive and staples. This high level of quality can only be found at UNITS® of Grand Rapids.

More Interior Space and Capacity

Our UNITS® containers are roomy, and our unique door design allows our smallest container (12′) to fit 511 more cubic feet of space than U-Haul® containers. Additionally, our 16′ UNITS® Moving and Portable Storage containers can hold up to 400% more weight than similarly sized U-Haul® containers!

ETRACK™ Securing System

We equip our containers with the ETRACK™ securing system. Unlike U-Haul®, we recognize that items may shift during transit due to varying terrain. Our strap and restraint system, known as ETRACK™, ensures your belongings stay in place.

One Container Does the Job

In comparison to U-Haul®’s U-Box, you’ll only need one of our containers to store multiple rooms’ worth of furniture and belongings, whereas you would require several U-Box containers for the same purpose. Our 12′ containers can accommodate the contents of up to 4 rooms, an entire basement, or large items like patio furniture and dining room tables. Our 16′ containers are perfect for large family relocations, job site supplies, or first responders. With our containers, UNITS® of Grand Rapids can do what others can’t.

Container Delivery Re-Invented – UNITS® of Grand Rapids ROBO-UNIT®

Our ROBO-UNIT® is a cutting-edge delivery system that allows us to deliver containers to the tightest spaces in Grand Rapids while ensuring level loading and unloading. This technology minimizes any shifting of container contents and offers greater flexibility in container placement when space is limited. Our ROBO-UNIT can lift 7,000 pounds and move up to 10,000 pounds.  NO OTHER Moving and Portable Storage Company has the ROBO-UNIT – not even U-Haul®.
