Moving Boxes - Covering All the Bases

Sunday, October 11th, 2009

Moving Boxes

If you have ever used moving boxes before, you know there seems to always be a give and take in several different factors. Some boxes are cheap (or free), but they are weak and sag under even moderate loads. Other boxes are strong but cost an arm and a leg. Still others strong and inexpensive, but are inconvenient for moving due to very large size or awkward shape. It can seem nearly impossible to cover all the bases of variety, strength, and price.

We have discussed in previous posts the importance of protecting your valuables during your move.  But, if safety was your only concern, then you would happily pay the outlandish prices charged by your moving company for their moving boxes.  We have also touched on moving on a budget.  But, if getting a cheap price was your only priority, then you wouldn’t be that concerned when your valuables fell through the bottom of your used and abused discount moving boxes.  Fortunately, you don’t have to settle for high prices or suspect quality in your moving boxes.

Moving Day Boxes offers a full line of strong and durable moving boxes for your next move.  These moving boxes are brand new, unprinted, American made and come in a wide variety of sizes and functions to fit your move.  Looking to move a lot of small, heavy items?  Try out some of our medium sized moving boxes.  Maybe you’re transporting a few loads of blankets and pillows.  Go ahead a load up a couple of extra large moving boxes.  Your mirrors and framed art will be plenty safe in our frame moving boxes.  Stop by MovingDayBoxes.com and be sure to check out the wide variety of protective moving supplies as well.

Wardrobe Boxes - ‘Tis the Season

Sunday, October 4th, 2009

Wardrobe Boxes

Where did all these clothes come from?  How can one person possibly have accumulated so many outfits in so little time?  Why is my closet full of jackets and sweaters in July?  Can’t I move these skirts somewhere until spring?  Closets all over the world have these very words echoing off their walls from frustrated homeowners and apartment dwellers.  We all likely have clothes hanging in our closets right now that we won’t be interested in wearing for several months.  Don’t worry, it’s not quite time to move to a bigger house or rent a storage unit.

Long-term storage of clothes or seasonal outfits is often done with simple moving boxes or plastic totes.  These approaches can be frustrating, however, especially when having to dig through boxes to locate a specific item, or when finding your clothes crumpled and wrinkled at the bottom of a box.  These and similar frustrations have lead to the creation of the wardrobe box for clothes storage and moving.  Wardrobe boxes are large and durable, essentially functioning as portable closets.  The strong metal bar across the top allows you to load up a collection of seasonal outfits, place the box in the basement, and retrieve the items when the time is right.

Having a collection of wardrobe boxes gives you the convenience of extra closet space and the flexibility to store your clothes wherever you like.  Moving Day Boxes offers large wardrobe boxes (24″x24″x40″) that are strong, durable, and ready to serve your clothes storage needs.  Visit MovingDayBoxes.com and free up some closet space today.

Cheap Moving Boxes

So the big move is coming up and you are looking to save some money wherever you can.  Maybe you have a few big cousins coming over instead of hiring a moving crew.  Or maybe you plan on borrowing your dad’s truck instead of renting a moving van.  Each money saving technique comes with at least a bit of risk, except of course when you decide you want cheap moving boxes.

Moving boxes come in a variety of prices, largely based on what the vendor can get you to pay.  Many movers have been shocked at the high prices charged by their moving company for boxes.  Unfortunately, moving boxes also come a wide variety of strengths, meaning that customers can unknowingly purchase moving boxes that are not strong enough to hold up to a typical move.  Fortunately, you will not have to compromise between saving money on your moving boxes and protecting your valuables during your next move.

Moving Day Boxes offers a full line of cheap moving boxes that test stronger than the industry standard.  These moving boxes are available in a range of useful sizes and are brand new, unprinted, and American made.  The moving boxes from Moving Day Boxes have the strength and durability to stand up to the strain of your moving day.  Take the time to save some money while protecting your items during your move.  Just be sure your cousins are strong enough to keep up with your boxes.

Packing Supplies - Look Before Your Leap

Moving Boxes

The day of your next big move may be quickly approaching.  Or maybe you feel like your are already behind on your packing.  Either way, there seems to be a strong temptation to pack things away as quickly as possible and simply get it over with.  While this approach may seem like a time saver, it can also lead to frustration due to the discovery of damaged or broken items during unpacking.  A little bit of careful planning can go a long way towards keeping your items safe and sound during your move.

After selecting quality moving boxes, your next important step will be to find the appropriate packing supplies for your particular items.  Large items that cannot be packed into moving boxes may require packing supplies such as moving blankets or pads.  These will help insulate your large items from any bumps or jolts from your moving boxes.  Smaller fragile items inside your moving boxes also need protection to prevent damage.  Even the lightest of bumps can damage glass, stoneware, and other delicate items.  Consider using inexpensive packing supplies such as bubble wrap or packing paper to cushion your breakables.

Your move will likely take a significant portion of your time and energy.  Don’t make it stressful by leaving the safety of your items to chance.  Visit Moving Day Boxes for a wide variety of packing supplies and moving boxes to fit your needs.  Take the time to protect what you have so you don’t end up spending time and money in the store replacing your broken items.

Moving Boxes - Packing With Bubble Wrap

Monday, June 8th, 2009

bubble wrap

There are several steps we can take during the moving process to ensure the safety of our valuables. Using strong moving boxes, clearly labelling all boxes containing fragile items, and hiring a reputable moving company all go a long way to protect your valuables. Oddly enough, most people stop short, however, when it comes to protecting their items within their moving boxes. Anyone who has attempted to safely move their dishes or other fragile items knows that the slightest jostle of a moving box or bump in the road can leave unprotected breakables in pieces. Rather than arriving at your new home to find your valuables broken apart, consider taking a few minutes and protecting such items with strong and relatively cheap bubble wrap.

Packing materials like bubble wrap can provide your items support in two important ways.  First, bubble wrap can provide a cushion between individual items, reducing the likelihood of breakage during jostling.  Bubble wrap can also help fill out a moving box, removing any open space a keeping items snug within the box.  This will help to further reduce shifting of items and the potential for broken valuables.

You have done so much to help protect your valuables during your move.  Don’t stop short of properly protecting your items within your moving boxes.  A little bubble wrap goes a long way (and the giant 1″x80″ roll from Moving Day Boxes goes even further), so grab some and make sure your valuables are kept safe during your next big move.
