Just so you know California and the Bay Area, San Francisco, Sacramento and San Jose areas are extremely super Liberal and Democrat a Blue State and the cost of living for a basic studio apartment 500 - 550 sq ft. will run you $2500 if your lucky traffic is F ing horrible that's why next year I'm moving out California.

Interesting perspective. I also just moved from NYC to CA in September. As I have/had a fantasy to convert a (camper)van also, I bought a van in NYC and simply filled it and drove to CA. So now I'm in CA with *some* of my stuff (hence the interest in transporting the rest of it) and a van :) Street parking in NYC you can do for a few days if you get the timing right. I did chronicle the journey on my channel but haven't edited it down to a watchable length yet - maybe in the future. For now only those truly interested or fascinated by the drive across country will watch ...

You should mention that, with the UBox...if you load the box at their facility, and unload at their facility, there's no charge. But if you elect for that, then it's your responsibility to get your stuff to the box, and then out of the box.

no permit, as long as you can park a car on the side walk or parking space it was fine to leave the ubox there. it only sat there for 24 hours so it wasn't that long. not sure if you would need something more if it's there longer.

Worse experience ever!!!! Initially it seemed ok...until they had to deliver it to the destination and that is when the issues arose....lies, being bounced around only to find out that my Uboxes would not be delivered ON TIME and the date that I chose. I would not do it again. Their system to leave instructions is an absolute disaster. Do not trust them at all. Do not do this online if you are still going to do it. I left instructions so many times online and it just would not take. I finally had to email the uhaul service email and they verbalized over email they had the instructions. They date approaches and I send them more instructions and picture and when they date arrives: well we tried to contact you to schedule it and you didn't answer. Absolute BS/Lies/Dishonest. Then they bounce me that day on more than 5 calls that take me hours of my day and all giving me the wrong information only to be told that they are storing my uboxes until July 5th.
