Measure smart

What to measure.

Four numbers decide nearly every fit check. Get these right and the rest follows.

  1. 01Loading space length, about 114 inches
  2. 02Loading height, about 56 inches, and the 49 inch rear door height
  3. 03Loading width, about 67 inches
  4. 04Each item on its largest rigid face, including packaging

Don't make these

Common mistakes.

Most “it didn't fit” stories trace back to one of these oversights.

  1. ⚠Confusing the cargo van with the larger box trucks in the U-Haul lineup
  2. ⚠Ignoring the 49 inch rear door height for tall items
  3. ⚠Assuming the 67 inch width is clear between the wheel wells
  4. ⚠Measuring furniture without arms, feet, or packaging

Frequently asked

Questions we keep getting.

  • Will a queen mattress fit in a U-Haul cargo van?

    Yes. A queen is 60 by 80 inches, under the 114 inch length and 67 inch width, so it lies flat. A king at 76 by 80 inches also fits flat but fills most of the floor.

    01
  • Can a couch fit in a U-Haul cargo van?

    A loveseat or a compact three seat sofa up to about 78 inches fits the 114 inch floor, but check the roughly 61 by 49 inch rear door opening, since the couch has to clear that first.

    02
  • How many boxes fit in a U-Haul cargo van?

    Roughly 70 to 90 standard 1.5 cubic foot boxes fit in about 246 cubic feet stacked to the roof; a real load leaves aisles. Enter your box count in the checker.
