What Type Of Box Should I Use?

Limit your boxes and cartons to a maximum of 50 pounds. 
  • Wrap items carefully.
  • Use crushed newsprint for cushioning.
  • Use boxes that can be securely taped shut.
  • Label all boxes, with your name, room the box should go to and brief description of contents.
Affordable pricing on all services.
  • Book Box: Used for packing heavy items like books, records, photo albums, canned goods and tools.
  • Medium Box: General all-purpose box. Ideally used for packing small appliances, non-perishable foods and clothing.
  • Large Box: Used for packing lighter items like linens, pillows, clothing, large toys, and lampshades.
  • Extra Large Box: Similar use as the large box, generally for overstuffed items like comforters, pillows and baskets.
  • Dish Pack Box: Used for packing dishes, glasses, china, stemware and any other fragile items.
  • Wardrobe Box: Used as a portable closet. Clothes remain on hangers minimizing wrinkling.
  • Mirror / Picture Box: 4 adjustable cartons that fit each mirror, picture or glass table top exactly. Use this with 3 Ply Paper Pads.
