What can you expect to pay for space in a U-Pack trailer?
No one wants to pay more than they have to when moving out of state. That’s why one of the first questions people ask when considering a moving service is “How much does it cost?” It can be frustrating when the answer is “It depends.”
If you’re considering a flexible moving solution, like a U-Pack® moving trailer, it’s helpful to have a price range to know what to expect.
Current moving trailer cost examples
Below are three price range examples for relocating with a U-Pack moving trailer in December 2025. These quotes were accurate at the time of publication, but actual moving costs will vary.
Example 1: Moving from Little Rock, AR, to Oklahoma City, OK (340 miles) |
|---|
Price range: $1001 (5 linear feet) to $2,893 (for the whole trailer) |
Example 2: Moving from Plano, TX, to Lexington, KY (875 miles) |
|---|
Price range: $1,576 (5 linear feet) to $5,118 (for the whole trailer) |
Example 3: Moving from Columbus, OH, to Carson City, NV (2,260 miles) |
|---|
Price range: $3,574 (5 linear feet) to $9,888 (for the whole trailer) |
How U-Pack figures trailer rates
Moving company costs can vary based on several factors, like weight of the shipment, equipment type and distance. U-Pack pricing is customized for each move based on the space you use in the trailer, not the weight.
Trailer space measurement
U-Pack trailers have 28 linear feet of space for belongings. We’ll provide a quote based on the size of your home, but you aren’t locked into it. You can use the whole trailer if needed (typically for a 3–4-bedroom home) or as little as the minimum of 5 linear feet (standard for a studio apartment).
You’ll only pay for the space you use. It’s easy to keep track of the price based on the per-foot rate listed on the reservation. For example, a reservation for 15 linear feet with a $200 per-foot rate means you’ll save $200 if you use only 14 feet and pay $200 more for 16 feet.
