Packing Containers


U-Haul will be dropping of U-Boxes on April 26th between 8am - 12pm. We will have them until Friday, April 30th. This will be more than enough time to pack at our leisure and coordinate any add-on furniture from other households.


U-Haul FAQ

Q: Why U-Haul Boxes? Why not PODS?! I hear those are great!

A: PODS are great! I looked them up first, unfortunately, PODS aren’t in Vermont. Same goes with any of the other big-name container companies. Vermont is small, they don’t have the same luxuries as bigger states.

Q: How long will it take for U-Haul to move the containers to your new home?

A: Because I don’t know the exact date of move in or if I’ll even get the house I currently have an offer on. I will be storing my boxes while I wait for closing. It takes U-Haul 16 days from Chandler to Plattsburgh, NY. Plattsburgh the closest shipping container storage to Vermont. Once I get a closing date, U-Haul will drop the containers off at my new home.

Q: Wouldn’t it be better to rent a truck?

A: No.

Q: What happens if U-Haul loses/breaks everything you own?

A: The great thing about being poor, I really don’t have many belongings. That said, I have insurance on the containers. Material possessions can be replaced. It will be OK.
