MOVING
Do you transport containers to new addresses in the Kansas City area?
Yes. Whether you are relocating within Kansas City or heading out of state, we deliver your loaded container directly to your new home or business address.
What keeps my belongings from shifting during a Kansas City move?
Our containers are engineered to stay level the entire time they are in transit. Specialized transport equipment absorbs movement along the way so everything arrives in the same condition it left.
What if I have to be out of my Kansas City home before my new place is ready?
We hold your container at our secure local facility until your new address is available, then bring it over whenever you give us the word.
Do I need to be at my property when the container is dropped off or picked up in Kansas City?
Not necessarily. Give us clear placement instructions and make sure there is adequate space and we can take care of both without you there.
Can you recommend professional loading help in the Kansas City area?
Most of our customers load on their own since it gives them full control over how everything is packed. If you want a hand we are happy to point you toward packing and moving services in the Kansas City area.
STORAGE
How does portable storage work in Kansas City?
We deliver an all-steel, weather-resistant container right to your Kansas City property. Load it on your own schedule then let us know if you want it stored at our secure facility or kept on your property.
Can I rent a container for just a few weeks in Kansas City?
Yes. We accommodate short-term rentals of a few weeks and longer rentals of several months. There is no pressure to commit to more time than you actually need.
Where does my container go if I choose not to keep it on my Kansas City property?
We bring it to our secure local facility in the Kansas City area where it stays locked and monitored until you are ready for redelivery.
How do I get access to my container once it is at your Kansas City facility?
Reach out at least 24 to 48 hours in advance and we will schedule a time for you to come in during normal business hours.
Are your containers built to handle Kansas City weather?
Absolutely. All-steel construction and weather-resistant walls stand up to Kansas City’s seasons including hot summers and cold winters. A lockable door adds security on top of the weather protection.
STORAGE AND MOVING
Can one container handle both storage and moving in Kansas City?
Yes. Keep it on your Kansas City property, store it at our facility, or have us ship it loaded to your next address. One container takes care of the whole process without any extra steps.
Which container size is right for my Kansas City home?
The 12-foot container works well for smaller apartments and one to two bedroom homes. For larger multi-room homes the 16-foot is the better fit. Both hold up to around 7,000 pounds.
What if there is a gap between my move-out and move-in dates in Kansas City?
We store your container at our secure local facility during the gap and deliver it to your new Kansas City area address the moment you are ready.
Is there any coverage available for my stored belongings?
Yes. We recommend adding a protection plan to your rental or checking whether your homeowner’s or renter’s insurance covers items in storage. We take strong precautions on our end as well.
Can I access my container while it is stored at your Kansas City facility?
Yes. Give us 24 to 48 hours notice and we will arrange access for you during normal business hours.

How do my belongings stay protected on a long haul from Kansas City?
Our containers stay level throughout loading, transit, and unloading. Specialized transport equipment minimizes movement so everything arrives in the same condition it left Kansas City.

Can you ship my loaded container to a destination outside of the Kansas City area?
Yes. Whether you are moving to a neighboring state or across the country we transport your loaded container directly to your new home or business address.
Do I need to be present at both ends of a long-distance move from Kansas City?
Not necessarily. As long as both locations have clear access and enough space we can manage pickup in Kansas City and delivery at your destination without you present at either end.

We transport it to our local secure facility in the Kansas City area where it stays locked and protected until you request redelivery.

COMPARE: PACK-RAT
Why Kansas City Residents Choose UNITS® Over PACK-RAT®
What sets UNITS apart from PACK-RAT in Kansas City?
Being locally owned makes a real difference. You get a team that knows Kansas City, faster turnaround times, and scheduling that fits your situation rather than a generic national call center experience.
How do UNITS containers compare to PACK-RAT in quality?
Our containers are all-steel with weather-resistant walls and a lockable door built to handle Kansas City weather year round. They are designed to protect your belongings for the full duration of your rental.
Does UNITS charge hidden fees the way some other companies do?
No. Every cost is laid out before you commit. Container rental, delivery, and pickup are all included in your upfront quote with no surprises down the line.

Local ownership, all-steel containers built for Midwest weather, and pricing that is clear from the start make it an easy decision for most people.
COMPARE: U-HAUL
Why Kansas City Residents Choose UNITS® Over U-Haul®
What is the biggest difference between UNITS and renting a U-Haul in Kansas City?
With UNITS you never get behind the wheel of a truck. We bring the container to your Kansas City property, you load it at your pace, and we handle all the driving. No mileage fees, no fuel stops, no stress.
Is renting a portable storage container more complicated than a truck rental in Kansas City?
It is simpler. We drop it off, you load it, we pick it up. No vehicle to return, no time pressure, no mileage counter running the whole time.

Our quotes include rental, delivery, and pickup with no add-ons after the fact. No mileage fees, no fuel surcharges, no unexpected charges when you go to settle the bill.
What if I need storage between my move-out and move-in dates in Kansas City?
We hold your container at our secure local facility for as long as you need. That level of flexibility is not something a rental truck can match.
How secure are UNITS containers compared to the back of a U-Haul truck in Kansas City?
All-steel construction, weather-resistant walls, and a lockable door keep your belongings protected whether the container is parked at your Kansas City property or stored at our facility.
COMPARE: SELF STORAGE
Why Kansas City Residents Choose UNITS® Over Traditional Self-Storage
What makes UNITS a better fit than a traditional self-storage facility in Kansas City?
We bring the storage to you. No truck to rent, no facility to drive across Kansas City to reach, no narrow hallways to navigate with heavy boxes. You load right outside your front door.
Will I ever have to drive my belongings to a UNITS location?
Never. We deliver the container to your Kansas City property and pick it up when you are done. If storage is needed we take care of the transportation to our facility.
How does the security of a UNITS container compare to a traditional storage unit in Kansas City?
Our containers are all-steel with weather-resistant walls and a lockable door. The facility itself is gated, monitored, and restricted to authorized staff and scheduled customers only.
What if I need to retrieve something from my container while it is in storage?
Give us 24 to 48 hours notice and we will set up access at our Kansas City facility during business hours. Straightforward every time.
Can I switch from storage to moving without starting the whole process over?
Yes. We pick up the container from our facility and deliver it loaded to your new Kansas City area address. No repacking, no switching services, no extra effort on your part.

The minimum is typically one month but there is no maximum. Short-term projects and long-term storage needs are both accommodated without pressure to commit beyond what you need.
How well do UNITS containers hold up to Kansas City weather at an outdoor business location?
Very well. All-steel construction and weather-resistant walls handle Kansas City’s hot summers and cold winters reliably. A lockable door keeps your inventory and equipment secure year round.
