Long-distance move from Martin, TN to North Judson, IN

UPack Trailers.

We moved our home and pole barn out of state using two trailers.
The drivers from each location have been amazingly friendly and helpful. The website has so much information on how to move safely and efficiently and the delivery driver reiterated packing high, tight, and cushioned as things will bounce around. We had very minimal damage and that was our error.
We highly recommend this company!

Long-distance move from Illinois to Arizona

MO to AZ.

Process worked great, and the drivers on both ends were helpful and on time. From start to finish, the whole process was easy and was a cost-effective option. The loading ramp at our starting location was a but damaged by a forklift, but the driver fixed it and demonstrated everything for us. On the receiving end, we had a brand new ramp. The key is that you need to pack things right, and can't leave things loose to bounce around. Of the complaints I've seen, many are about broken items..well, take the blame because you pack it and load it! I recommend getting E-Track cargo nets and straps, or get D-Ring converters that plug in, or else you're going to be out of luck. I also recommend paying close attention to the dimensions of the locks you can use on the cargo divider. It's pretty challenging to find a decent padlock that will fit in the very narrow hole in the divider handles. I used some Brinks brass ones after trial and error on 5+ other locks. Check that out on the info page to make sure you get the right kind. Pick up and drop off was easy, even on military bases, and all went as planned.

Long-distance move from Lancaster, CA to Wolverine, MI

Beyond Mad!!

Horrible. I reserved a trailer 5 months before our move from CA to MI. I called a month before our move to verify because we live rurally and on well maintained dirt roads. I talked to 3 people: Customer Service, Sales and the Los Angeles distribution center. All of them said yes, no problem. One guy even looked us up on Google Earth. Now 2 days before we are set to get a trailer I called to get their drop off time. I was told then that they can’t deliver to us because we live on dirt roads. WTF!! I explained that I was assured they would and they had no record of my previous call. HOW CONVENIENT!! Now we have to jump through hoops to find another moving company last minute so that we can move in 4 days. Thanks U-Pack for making our already stressful move a nightmare. I’ll be sure to share this with others so they avoid you like the plague.

Long-distance move from Albuquerque, NM to Tulsa, OK

The Worst Moving Experience Of My Life!

I was recommended to UPack by a realtor friend who thought she had heard good things about them
I moved my entire home ie antique furniture, pottery, artwork, dishes, clothing etc two states over
When I opened the back end of their truck my entire load of possessions had been tossed in the air and basically ruined
The driver clearly hit something (or went over something large) but failed to report the accident
So although UPack could clearly see the extensive damage (I requested an appraiser) they still refused to take any responsibility or pay for all the damages
I was present the entire time the 24 foot truck was loaded by professionals and know 100% the condition my belongings were in going in
The only way so many items could have been shattered was because the truck was wrecked
I strongly advise everyone NOT to use UPack
They do not stand by their so-called insurance and do not take any responsibility their own drivers
UPack is simply a very very bad company.

Long-distance move from Louisiana to California

Adjusting fees.

My quote was for $1944 after a $50 previous customer discount.  Upack, they ship.  well this is true.  If you use less than the space you were quoted they deduct, if you use more space they add cost.  well I used 2 feet less, which was $160 less.  On the bill of lading where you put the amount of footage used, the driver put 15 ft, somehow by the time it got to california my shipment grew to 17 1/2 feet.  they claim I wrote the 17ft.  No the driver wrote 15ft at pickup, I initialed.  I asked for a copy of the BOL, and what do I see, they crossed out 15 and put 17 as to keep the same delivery price.  bunch of crooks.  Never again.  I rather pay extra for a true moving company than these folks.  All the money I spent, I could have rented a truck and drove it back my self.  OH, and my shipment was picked up on a Wednesday, they said it'll be at the destination on Monday.  Well that Friday after Pick up, the destination terminal called and said Guess What, you've heard about the bad weather they're having, so you shipment wont arrive till Friday.  Well damn, I left Wednesday driving, got home Friday and ran into NO BAD WEATHER.  They excuse was a bunch of BS.

Long-distance move from Texas to Kansas

Smooth Move.

The cubes were not available in Beaumont, Texas, because they didn't have the forklift to service that portion.  Instead I got a 27' trailer with ramp delivered from a super friendly man.  Because I accepted the trailer, the monthly storage at the destination end was the same price as if I had loaded cubes, $300. The advantage of the trailer is you are not limited to several small spaces.  The entire load "melds" together.  And with the ramp, my legs got a terrific workout. When we were ready for the trailer to be delivered to our new house, they promptly delivered, again with a really friendly driver.  He told me to call when it was empty and there were no further charges. The move, $1715, and two months storage, $600, $2315 altogether was extremely reasonable.  This is "do-it-yourself" packing, but full service moving companies demand that you wrap and pack your stuff; they just move it into their trailers.  They want more than twice this amount, and won't allow most anything in your garage. .

Service cost: $1715

Long-distance move from Virginia to Texas

No Issues.

I moved from Virginia to Texas in 1 of their relo cubes.  Upon delivery the driver was unable to manuver his truck into the neighborhood so he had to drive a fork lift with the relocube to my house.  I packed all of my own stuff.  It was mostly boxes, a regular sized bed, two chairs and some other stuff that wouldn't fit in boxes.  I locked it up with the toughest lock I could find.  I ended up having to store it for 2 months ($99/mo).  When I finally moved into a new apartment I was unable to have the relo cube delivered to the apartment because there was no place to put it and couldn't place it in the street.  So I had to hire someone to go to the warehouse where it was stored (outside) and unload it and deliver it to my apartment.  Despite that one inconvenience the process went smoothly.  I mention this so others will consider this when moving, I sure didn't.  The gentleman I spoke to over the phone was always polite, friendly and answered all of my questions.  Upon opening everything look about the way I left it.  Some items had shifted in transport but nothing was wet or damaged.  I'm actually considering to use them again but this time with two relo cubes.  If I do I'll let you know how it goes.

Long-distance move from Florida to North Carolina

ABF UPACK was great.

We used a Relo-cube to move our stuff. We had it stored for a month while we looked for a place in our new location. We got exactly what we were expecting, which is way more than I can say for other experiences with movers. They dropped off the cube as expected. We loaded it, and they picked it up. On arrival our stuff was in great condition. The pick ups and drop offs were on time and easy. It was a very economical solution, and because we packed it carefully ourselves, nothing was broken.

Long-distance move from Arizona to Washington

So far, NOT so good..

We looked at a LOT of moving options for our relocation to Washington state from Arizona. Essentially, we went with U-Pack because the representative guaranteed us it was the most convienient option and their customer service was "above all the rest!" The phone representative was very nice and helpful so we booked 2 boxes. We were given a window for our boxes to be dropped off from 8am-noon (just like the cable guy, great). My boyfriend and I had to take the entire morning off work to wait for this guy to show up and noon passes, still no word. We contact the company saying our boxes haven't shown up and the CSR casually tells us they're, "busy this morning" and he won't be there until about 1 or so. A call letting us know this in the morning would have been nice. We'll after letting them know I had a doctor's apointment at 1pm we rescheduled the delivery for 2:30-3pm the same day. Now I get to load the boxes alone because my boyfriend has to go into work for the second half of the day. *Hooray* I hurried home so I didn't miss the delivery, also had to take the rest of the day off work, and still NOTHING! It's 3:24pm as I write this and I have just called again to find out the guy is at lunch. GREAT. The response on the phone was much less than helpful and I have officially wasted an entire precious day WAITING! So much for customer service. I plan to update my review after the move and will keep my fingers crossed it gets better from here although it is not looking good so far. As of now I reccomend you check out one of the MANY MANY other companies that offer this service.

Long-distance move from Idaho to Kentucky

Move by ABF.

This move was furniture sent to a college student in Louisville, KY. It cost $1953.00 just as quoted and we provided our own packing materials. Pick up was one day late (on Friday instead of Thursday) due to pick-up and delivery trucks all being in use. Was not charged for the extra day.  Generally the move appeared to be uneventful and nothing was damaged. The people we talked to were friendly and helpful. The only problem was it went much slower than estimated. Nothing happens on weekends (we had 2 weekends instead of 1), and stopping at a major hub for transfer to another truck can cause delays in receiving the cube at your home on the day it arrives. I would use this service again, but would try to plan better and have more flexibility in the number of days required for arrival.

Service cost: $1953
