If you’re moving in the near future, the task of finding used moving boxes is probably at the top of your move preparation checklist, just above or beneath the task of finding a mover. You’re already thinking about asking friends, co-workers, and grocery store managers for used moving boxes that you can use. You’re circling parking lots, driving behind big box stores, and staking out dumpsters in hope of finding decent boxes to move your belongings. Whether we are born with this instinct or it was inherited from our parents, we should strongly consider replacing the stressful task of finding and using old moving boxes with the enjoyable experience of buying and using new boxes for your upcoming move.

Before you attempt to check this task off of your moving preparation checklist, review the following 5 benefits of using new boxes for your move instead of using old moving boxes.

New moving boxes are:

Convenient
A reputable moving company knows how important it is to use new moving boxes. In fact, the best movers carry inventory of boxes & other moving supplies that you can purchase. These companies can help you estimate the quantity and size of the boxes you’ll need for a successful move. Some of them will even deliver the boxes to your door step.

Safe & Sturdy
Moving boxes lose their strength with each use. Who knows what wear and tear they’ve acquired over time, making them unsteady and unsafe. Allowing for a proper seal, new moving boxes will ensure your valued possessions will be protected during your upcoming residential or commercial move.

The Right Size & Strength
Whether you are moving heavy books, fragile dishes, wardrobes or all of the above, you’ll want to make sure you use a box that’s properly sized and has the correct strength. When purchasing new moving boxes, select the type of moving box based on the contents it will contain. Our moving company offers a range of sizes, strengths, and purposes to ensure the contents you’ll be hauling will be protected.

Made for Moving
Unlike most of the boxes you’ll find in the dumpster, moving boxes are specifically designed for moving. New moving boxes will close and seal easily, they’ll have plenty of room for labeling, and some even have handles. For added protection, choose the double-walled moving box option when purchasing new moving boxes from your local moving company.

Free of Stains, Damage, and Pests
Used moving boxes often come with mysterious stains or scents, damage caused by some unknown liquid, or even insect eggs. If you’re moving boxes are new, you won’t have to wonder if the box is trustworthy, if that funky stain is harmful, or if you have just introduced pests into your new home or apartment.
