Below are some
questions we receive from time to time about
boxes, supplies and our services:
"Why is box strength important?"
Corrugated boxes come in all shapes,
strengths and sizes, depending on how and where
the box will be used - the stronger the box, the
greater the protection for its contents. The
moving industry is very competitive, but they
all use moving boxes that are at least 200lb
test in strength. This insures your household
belongings will arrive safely. No moving, truck
rental or self storage company would ever sell a
moving box weaker than 200lb test. There are
some websites on the Internet selling much
weaker (by 46%) 150lb test boxes and calling
them moving boxes. This box was actually
designed for storing far less valuable items and
does not offer anywhere near the same level of
protection as a real moving box.
"How Do I Know How Strong My Box Is?"
All boxes have a seal printed on the bottom
flap by the manufacturer certifying the box
strength. Industry standard Moving Boxes are
200lb test weight or 32etc. Also, larger boxes
like Wardrobes or Kitchen Protective Boxes will
have a higher test weight. Make sure to check
Box Strength before you make a purchase to make
sure they are adequate for your needs.
"How can you sell your products at such a low
price?"
We buy millions of boxes every year. By focusing
only on moving boxes for consumers, we get great
pricing on our large orders and pass along the
savings.
"Are your boxes brand new?"
YES - just brand new, unprinted boxes direct
from the biggest box manufacturer in the USA.
"Are your boxes high quality?
YES - In fact our boxes test over the 200lb
test industry standard. Our boxes are more than
tough enough even for shipping!! Our Kitchen and
Wardrobe boxes are double the strength.
