If you’re looking to move long distances, U-Pack is a convenient and affordable way of getting your goods transported. U-Pack will deliver the moving container and all equipment to your doorstep. You can pack and load on your own or hire professional packers to help. When you are ready, a U-Pack driver will take the container to your new place, where you have up to three days to unload. U-Pack containers are metal and weatherproof – a convenient option for long-hauls. Because they sit flat on the ground, they’re easy to load, park, and store. U-Pack rates include the driver and fuel, so you can be sure that there are no hidden costs. There are no long waits for your belongings to arrive either. Your items will be driven straight to where they need to be with no delays. U-Pack was established in 1997. It has a service center in San Diego, CA.

If you’re moving across state lines, you likely need to hire a moving company with a VALID USDOT license. This licensing information comes from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration and applies to a moving company's ability to perform a long distance INTERstate move (for example: from California to Texas). If your move crosses state lines within the same commercial zone, or metropolitan area (for example: DC to Alexandria, VA), it is generally not considered an interstate move and a moving company may not need an "Active" license from FMCSA to perform this type of move. INTRAstate moves (within the same state or city) are regulated by state and local jurisdictions and licensing requirements vary according to locale.Not Authorized
