When you’re comparing UNITS® Moving and Portable Storage of Tampa Bay to U-Haul®, the differences become clear pretty quickly. With UNITS® of Tampa Bay, we focus on making storage and relocation simple, flexible, and stress-free from start to finish. We’re locally owned and operated, which means when you call us, you’re talking to real people right here in the Tampa Bay area—not a national call center reading from a script. We understand the local community, and we take the time to make sure your experience feels personal and easy.
Our portable storage containers are built with durability and convenience in mind, giving you a better overall solution than what you’ll find with U-Haul®. Whether you’re handling a home renovation, coordinating a move, or managing a business project, we provide dependable options that fit your timeline. Residential customers love the flexibility of loading at their own pace, while commercial clients rely on us for jobsite storage, inventory management, and temporary space during transitions. No matter the situation, we make it work around your schedule—not the other way around.
One of the biggest advantages we offer is our exclusive ROBO-UNIT delivery system. This technology allows us to place your portable storage container exactly where you need it, even in tight driveways, uneven surfaces, or tricky locations. It also keeps your container level during loading and unloading, helping protect your belongings along the way. It’s a smoother, more precise delivery experience compared to traditional methods.
When it comes to storage, UNITS® of Tampa Bay also provides access to a clean, climate-controlled warehouse for long-term needs. This helps protect your items from heat, humidity, mold, and pests—something you won’t always get with other options. Combined with our all-steel portable storage containers, you can feel confident your belongings are secure in any environment.
At the end of the day, we’re here to provide a better, more reliable experience than U-Haul® with service that actually feels local and supportive.

Every time you reach out, you’ll connect with our friendly, knowledgeable team right here in Tampa Bay—no call centers involved. We understand the area, we listen closely, and we work with you to make sure you get exactly what you need, right when you need it. That’s the kind of personal service you won’t find with U-Haul®.
At UNITS® of Tampa Bay, we work hard to keep our pricing competitive across the Tampa Bay area. Because of that, our moving and storage solutions are often more affordable than what you’ll find with U-Haul®. But don’t just take our word for it—request a quote from us and compare it side by side with a U-Haul® estimate. You’ll likely notice the difference right away. Plus, we keep things simple with straightforward pricing and absolutely no hidden fees. PERIOD.
UNITS® containers are built for strength and reliability. Our portable storage containers feature solid steel construction, reinforced steel frames, and durable steel doors designed to handle the elements without the need for tarps. In comparison, U-Haul® containers are made using wood, adhesives, and staples. When it comes to long-lasting quality and protection, UNITS® of Tampa Bay delivers a level of durability you can count on.
UNITS® containers are designed to give you more usable space. Thanks to our innovative door design, even our smallest 12′ container offers up to 511 more cubic feet of space than comparable U-Haul® containers. On top of that, our 16′ containers can handle up to 400% more weight than similar-sized U-Haul® options. With UNITS® of Tampa Bay, you get the space and capacity you actually need.
Our portable storage containers come equipped with the ETRACK™ securing system to help keep your belongings in place. We understand that items can shift during transport, especially over uneven terrain. That’s why our built-in strap and restraint system helps keep everything stable throughout the journey—something U-Haul® simply doesn’t offer.
With UNITS® of Tampa Bay, one container often handles what would take multiple U-Haul® U-Box containers. Our 12’ containers can fit the contents of up to four rooms, a full basement, or larger items like dining sets and patio furniture. Our 16’ containers are ideal for full household relocations, jobsite storage, or emergency response needs. We make it easy to get more done with fewer containers.
