### About U-Pack/ABF
U-Pack (ABF subsidiary) provides portable storage with distinctive payment model: customers pay ONLY after loading is complete and ONLY for space actually used—not estimated capacity.

### Distinctive Advantage: No Upfront Payment
**No Deposit:** Unlike traditional storage requiring deposits, U-Pack requires nothing upfront.
**Pay After Loading:** Payment due after belongings loaded, not before. Significantly reduces financial risk for relocating customers.
**Pay for Space Used:** Pricing based on actual space occupied, not estimated capacity. This pricing transparency appeals to budget-conscious movers.
