When it comes to construction quality, UNITS® containers are second to none.

More Interior Space and Capacity

One of the standout features of UNITS® containers is their superior interior space and capacity. Thanks to our unique door design, even our smallest 12′ container can accommodate 511 more cubic feet of space than U-Haul® containers. And our 16′ containers can hold up to 400% more by weight than similarly sized U-Haul® containers. It’s all about giving you more bang for your buck at UNITS® of San Diego.

ETRACK™ Securing System

At UNITS® of San Diego, we prioritize the safety and security of your belongings during transit, even during a long-distance move. That’s why our containers feature the innovative ETRACK™ securing system, which prevents items from shifting during moves, even when encountering different terrains. Unlike U-Haul®, we understand the importance of ensuring your items stay put throughout the journey.

One Container Does the Job

Say goodbye to the hassle of dealing with multiple containers. With UNITS®, one container does the job. Whether you’re moving multiple rooms’ worth of furniture or need to store large objects like patio furniture, our containers are up to the task. Our 12′ containers are perfect for storing the contents of up to 4 rooms, while our 16′ containers are ideal for large family relocations or keeping supplies on hand at a job site. At UNITS® of San Diego, we offer solutions that others simply can’t match.
