ABF U-pack Review
(5 out of 5 rating)

My family and I are moving cross country: from Connecticut to California. We had a 10' x 10' x 30' storage unit that was completely full with our belongings. After checking out several different options and getting quotes from a few companies, ABF seemed like the best way to go. The folks at ABF were a pleasure to deal with. The original window for delivery of my trailer was 12pm - 4pm. I called a few days in advance to see if they could deliver it in the morning. They met me part way, and said they could deliver the trailer between 8am - 10am. The driver arrived at approximately 10:15am, and was kind, professional, and expertly parked the trailer precisely where I wanted it. When the trailer arrived, it was in good condition, and the roof is semi-transparent, which makes loading during the day much easier with the internal lighting. There were no lights in the trailer, so loading at night would be much more difficult. We had some trouble with the gate not opening at the storage facility when the driver came to pick up the trailer after it was fully loaded. Both the ABF driver and 2 of the 3 dispatchers that I communicated with were polite, understanding, professional, and accommodating. It'll take a few days for my belongings to make it cross country, so I can't speak for how things worked out on the other end, but so far I am quite pleased with ABF, and recommend them!

I spent a great deal of time researching the various companies in this category. Took a deep breath..and booked ABF. They arrived on time,, both for drop off and a day early as requested for pick up. Here's a tip: I was glad that I thought it thru so much as otherwise, there would never have been enuf room for the size vehicle that came to drop off the trailor.., the cab was HUGE .. and I live on a city street, nevertheless, he got the trailer directly in front of my door. I don't have a review on the timeliness of the delivery since the truck is now on it's way from NY to FLA, but fingers crossed.... the trust I placed in them so far has been completely deserved .(PS I booked 17 feet, we only used 16 so I am counting on them discounting that foot..which I already paid for.)

Great experience. Everyone I talked to was extremely friendly and helpful. My pod arrived earlier than expected (even with the Thanksgiving holiday) and they helped determine the best delivery date. I was really surprised I was able to fit all of my stuff into one pod. Would definitely use them again!

ABF provides 28' trailers with a substantial ramp for your loading. In the fine print on the Bill of Lading, it states "ABF shall have no responsibility or liability to customer....(I) any liability, loss or damage caused or alleged to be caused directly or indirectly by any equipment, any inadequacy thereof, any deficiency or defect (latent or otherwise) therein, ... My trailer had a hole in the roof and leaked during a two day rainstorm, While unloading the trailer we found 11 boxes soaked and holding water. Fortunately, a lot of stacked goods in the front of the trailer where the leak was, were in plastic totes and were protected. Be advised that ABF bears no responsibility for leaking trailers.

This is the 2nd time I have used an ABF UPack Trailer for moving and it is the best way to go! You have freedom and flexibility with your move because you determine when the trailer is dropped off and then picked back up. You can take all the time you need to load or unload the trailer and you only pay for the space you use. I felt secure knowing my belongings were safe because everything is locked behind a bulkhead wall that you secure with your own locks. The trailers are clean, solid and very spacious. The reservation process was very quick and easy and the customer service reps I dealt with were very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. I'm sure I will move again in the future and I will not hesitate to use ABF!

ABF does what they say and follows up every step of the way until your journey is complete. Whether you are moving and packing your own stuff or using a packing company you will not be able to drive it across country yourself as reasonable as ABF can haul it for you and on time... very professional and great customer service.... highly recommend!

Used three trailers, thought they were packed quite well, but two of the trailers upon opening had shifted the load so much that when we opened the trailer, everything started to fall out. These trailers are rough on furniture.

First time using ABF U-Pack, I did not consider the rough ride our goods would experience. I would do it again, but take more precautions to make sure items were packed, padded, wrapped better to minimize any damage. They were flexible with the delivery and pick-up of the trailer, a slight complaint is that they were supposed to pick up the trailer on a Thursday afternoon or Friday morning but didn't until Sunday evening.

I thought things were well packed but their was a fair amount of minor damage, mostly from furniture rubbing against boxes. I would use more moving blankets if I did this again.

On time arrival and delivery of the trailer. Everything went as expected as far as the transportation went. We exceeded our estimate (my fault) but it wasn't a problem as far as trailer capacity. I would use them again.

We liked the ABF concept of loading a truck and then someone else driving it. Our problem with ABF was two fold. First, they subcontracted out the job to another company (Estes). No one told us about this until a truck showed up with a big "Estes" on the side. The second problem was that they would say when a trailer was coming or would be picked up, but it would either come very early or late, or even the next day, without explanation. Customer service was friendly enough, but it was hard to tell how effective they were.

Very professional and convenient. The driver on the packing end gave some rather useful tips. We have used them for a couple of long moves, now, and would use them again. The inclusion of a two-wheel dolly with the trailer is a small but very nice touch.

ABF Trailers are a great way to move. I saved more than $12,000 on a move from NY to Florida. Plenty of time to load and plenty of time to unload. Customer Service was great. They seemed to know you at every point of contact. And with one phone call, the truck was gone. Watch their great videos for loading techniques and use straps every few feet!

We moved a 2 bedroom 1 bathroom apartment. We needed the entire 28 foot ABF trailer, but that's because we had WAY too much furniture for the space we were living in. We had previously moved OUT of a 3 bedroom home, so it's probably more fair to say we moved out of a 3 bedroom home. UPack, as a company, was great. The sales people were professional and courteous, the pick up and drop off people were helpful and friendly. Please do note that the trailers are DIRTY. So you'll want to, as much as possible, wrap up furniture to keep it clean. I would definitely use a UPack ABF 28-foot trailer rental again in the future.
