U-Haul U-Box® Reviews
Do not recommend for larger households. Estimate for number of U- boxes required is based on questions asked by the 1-800 u-haul phone number personnel. Questions are not detailed enough and individuals moving are generally not equipped to estimate how much room they will need to move. Service was often slow but at times was good with various individuals. This turned out to be an awful move for us, and the size of the you boxes caused us to have to rent a 26 foot truck and drive many of our belongings to another state. It was awful and costs keep climbing.
Ubox worked well in getting the empty pods to me for pack up and shipping out. Getting the filled pods delivered to my new residence was a huge hassle. Uhaul missed their guaranteed delivery date by two days, and were disorganized and unprofessional as I tried to confirm with them when the pods would actually be delivered. They never reached out to me to explain the situation or give me a new date; I always had to call them (many, many times) to figure out what was going on. I doubt I will ever use Ubox again.
Uhaul-U-Box has many good part - price for one. You have to pack VERY well. They and their transportation company can be pretty aggressive with the handling of the cubes. That said, the only things broken were because would have been avoided had I done a better job of packing and protecting. UHaul - U-Box does not have their lines of communication totally worked out so they weren't always clear on where my boxes were or when I needed access. But, all-in-all, for the price, it worked out OK. I would have been a LOT happier if U-Haul had their communications problems worked out, though.
