They are made of easy to recycle High Density Polyethylene, that is strong, sturdy and all around the best choice for moving or storing.

Each of our boxes are thoroughly cleaned and disinfected after each use.

When we pick up the boxes, we will provide signature sealed tags to ensure the utmost privacy of your belongings.

Try to distribute weight across your boxes. Spread heavier items, such as books, across several boxes. Keep in mind, we don’t take boxes weighing over 50 lbs.

Pack items together that you’ll likely want back at the same time (and make sure you label your boxes, too).

A single box can hold 12 pairs of shoes, or 30 shirts and 10 sweaters.
