Happy Friday ,

I just have a quick general question about the interior space of an Atlas SmartVault. Has anyone successfully stuffed an 84" couch into one? The interior of the vault can range from 82" (military vault) - 84" vs the ABF Relocube interior are taller at 93".

SmartVault interior dimensions: 84' height, 70" width, 79" depth

ABF ReloCube dimensions: 93" height, 82" width, 70" depth

The ReloCube seems to be the obvious choice, but I like that Atlas can wrap/load up the furniture that I want to move without hiring a 2nd party to wrap/load for me.

TIA!

By stuffed, do you mean crammed?

Add 3-5 inches to the total length to accommodate the additional padding and cushion protection normally required to prevent damage when the couch is pad wrapped and stood on end.

Due to their liability, a trained Atlas crew won't stand it up on it's side without proper padding on the arms and back.

Loading/unloading laborers supplied by ABF might get the couch to fit inside the ReloCube but you might find yourself with damaged sides.

Atlas is a licensed household good carrier. ABF is a freight carrier and move broker.
