We may have the wrong shipping address, the driver may have unsuccessfully attempted delivery, or the carrier may have lost it.

If you were not home when the FedEx driver tried to drop off your packages, it’s up to the driver’s discretion whether to require a signature for delivery, drop the package off at your doorstep or to leave it with a building manager or doorman. If the driver believes it’s best to obtain a signature, he or she will try a few times to secure one. When a package is returned “undeliverable,” you should get a full refund unless it is determined that the order was improperly refused. Undeliverable orders will not be resent.

Lastly, retail stores have a much higher overhead, do not specialize in moving boxes, and thus are often more expensive.

Our prices are less expensive than almost all retail stores and moving companies, PLUS we include shipping free of charge. The quality of the box is higher than that you would find in most retail stores, as all moving boxes are certified for use with moving and storing.

Moving companies are in the moving business. Most moving companies have small offices and large lots for their trucks. They are not designed to inventory thousands of boxes that they sell in bulk. As a result, the customer pays more.

Every home, apartment and office is different. Based on our years of experience, we have developed several Moving Kits & Multi-Room Moving Kits based on an average home’s requirements. We also suggest you go room-by-room and work through our easy packing planner worksheet below to better understand how many and what size boxes you’ll need for your move.

Our boxes are made to precise standards from the strength and flute structure of each box to the specific sizing that allows our customers to take advantage of easy loading and proper stacking while moving or used for storage. In accordance with the Technical Association of Pulp and Paper we use the process known as Edge Crush Test (ECT) to test the strength of our boxes. Another name for this known as 200lb test. This test meets all acceptable industry standards. Our boxes our formatted Length x Width x Height.

Absolutely! All of our boxes are brand new and of the best quality.

All boxes have a certificate seal printed on the bottom flap by the manufacturer certifying the box’s strength. Industry standard Moving Boxes are 200lb test weight or 32 ECT. Larger boxes like Wardrobes or kitchen dish pack boxes Kitchen should have a higher test weight/strength. Also on the certificate you will find a capacity in weight that the box is designed to handle. Just because a box is large, doesn’t mean it can carry a lot of weight. Make sure to check box strength before you make a purchase to make sure they are adequate for your needs.

Corrugated boxes come in all shapes, strengths and sizes – the stronger the box, the greater the protection for its contents. The moving industry is very competitive, but professional movers use moving boxes that are at least 32 ECT (or 200lb test) in strength. These ratings are standard from the box industry, and help insure that your household belongings will arrive safely. Weaker boxes will crush under load. No moving, truck rental or self storage company should sell a moving box weaker than 32 ECT (200lb test). There are some retailers that sell much weaker (by 46%) 150lb test boxes and calling them moving boxes. BEWARE! This box was actually designed for light-weight usage and should not be used for moving. The reason why box strength is so important is weaker boxes are much more like to compress when they are stacked; thereby creating damage to your property.

You will find many retail stores and online stores sell boxes that are NOT designed or good to use while moving or storing. BE VERY careful when looking at different boxes for moving and make sure they meet the 32ECT/200lb moving standards.

Buying quality moving boxes designed for moving is the best least expensive form of moving insurance there is.

Yes, size matters! But only in the sense of manageability. Many moving companies sell large boxes for use by large men and their large moving machines. Based on customer demand, our boxes are slightly smaller and more manageable. Most of our clients are self-movers, but either way, how you pack the box is as important as how large the box is. The number one cause of damage during a move is a box that is not fully packed. Empty space in a box creates trouble.

All of our moving boxes are designed for moving and storing. These strong and sturdy moving boxes are certified with a 32 ECT (or 200 lb test) in strength, and some of the larger boxes like the wardrobe and kitchen boxes are even higher (44ECT).

32 ECT is what is recommended by the professional moving industry to help provide your valuables with the highest level of protection against moving damages.

The box manufacturing process involves “converting” huge rolls of corrugated “kraftboard”, sometimes referred to as “linerboard” into boxes. It gets printed, then cut, then glued. They are then stacked on a pallet, banded, then loaded into a truck and sent to the customer. A box manufacturer’s quality control keeps flawed boxes from leaving their plant. The cuts, gluing and wall strength of our boxes is the exact same as everyone else’s.

Grocery store boxes are not certified or designed to be used for moving and storing. Typically used grocery store boxes are a moving companies worst nightmare.

Grocery store boxes do not stack well on a truck, many of them don’t have tops, and they have a much higher chance of compressing when boxes are stacked on top. This provides a much higher likelihood that your belongings will be damaged.

Lastly, most grocery store boxes or liquor boxes have been wet at one time, which degrades an already weak box for the use of moving

Yes they can. Quality moving boxes can be stacked on top of each other in the most efficient fashion in order to maximize the space on the truck and lessen the number of trips your movers will need to make with their dollies from your house to the truck.

Faster movers, means that you will save money on the cost of your move, particularly if you are paying by the hour.

Boxes do get weak when reused. Boxes get ruined when they get wet. One of the biggest concerns is the side of the box, where the seam is glued. Over time, this glue becomes unreliable. If you do use used boxes, you should inspect them carefully before packing. WE DO NOT SELL USED BOXES. For Shipping, regulations for carriers like FedEx prohibit the use of used boxes.

For our moving supplies and box supplies, we have taken the most popular sizes used in our years of moving and used these as benchmarks. See our Packing Tips Center to make sure you choose the right size to ensure good packing.

Most people grossly underestimate how many boxes they will need. The fact is, when you move it requires a lot of moving boxes to pack a home.

Also, many people use the wrong sizes of corrugated boxes, boxes. It is better to use more small and medium sized boxes with moving (that is the standard of professional moving companies) so your items don’t rub together inside of the cardboard boxes and break, then fewer boxes that are huge.

The Moving Box Kits were based on many years in owning a moving company. With analysis and research, we found a common “average” of boxes used by consumers when moving that was surprisingly consistent.

Yes. We only sell NEW boxes that are made from 20-30% recycled materials AND can be recycled again after you use them.

Absolutely! If you purchase our moving supplies and packing supplies and are not satisfied, you can return them within (90) days of receipt for a refund.

Yes. We only sell professional grade packing tape. Our tape is a premium tape used by professional movers to pack and seal your valuables.

Estimating your needs is not an exact science. Everyone has varying amounts of breakables and possessions of high value.
