Has anyone used U-haul’s UBox to move their stuff to a different state? It’s a lot cheaper than other options but I’m hesitant.

Yes I used it to move from northeast to Austin, can’t complain nothing was damaged. Definitely a lot cheaper than pods

I used it to move from Denver to Austin, and it was a pretty good experience. I did have one lamp get damaged in transit, but everything else was fine. I recommend hiring movers to pack it for you.

I used it to move from SF to Austin about 5 years ago and had zero problems. I had them pack and unpack it for me.

They "lost" all of my boxes, and I had to live out of the belongings I had packed in my car for three weeks. I'm sure that's not the typical experience, but i probably wouldn't recommend them to a friend either. Customer service wasn't very helpful at first, but they did make ammends with a discount to my bill. Hope you have better luck moving!

I have and a few things ended up broken…

Also, it wasn’t a packing issue. For instance, my TV stand broke in half somehow. I assume the pods get thrown around a lot.

If I am not able to gain admission to Harvard Business School, but wanted a similar educational experience to become a consultant, should I attend Harvard Extension?
