Nevertheless, it’s time to look toward the future and all of those exiting opportunities awaiting us. But we don’t want to look so far ahead that we lose sight of what’s happening right now. Relocation can be a great a burden, and if we’re not careful, it can end up costing us way more in terms of both time and money than it ought to. That’s why we need to make a smart budget and then stick with it.
Budget is the reason why so many in El Paso forgo high-quality moving boxes. In fact, a recent industry study of West Texas found that more than 50 percent of people moving from the area were opting for free alternatives, such as the used boxes available at local shops. The problem with those “free” boxes is that they’re used and not well suited to the task. Because of that, they end up costing more in the end. You’d likely be surprised at how much property damage and loss these “free” alternatives account for.
In need of moving boxes, El Paso residents tend to see them as an unnecessary expense, but the truth is that high-quality packing supplies are not only necessary, they end up saving more in the end, often enough to offset their cost entirely. The key to reaping such savings is to buy at the lowest rates possible, which simply isn’t available when buying moving boxes in El Paso locally or even at most online options.
In fact, in the industry study mentioned above, people moving from Homestead Meadows, a large El Paso neighborhood, were spending 50 percent above the nationwide average on moving materials, and boxes, packing paper and even bubble wrap were usually marked up by several hundred percent or more. That’s staggering, especially when you consider movingdayboxes.com is shipping moving boxes to El Paso at greatly reduced prices.
Price is a big advantage. Another important benefit is selection. When you buy moving boxes in El Paso, you’re limited to whatever sells the best in the area. If you live in a different area, the selection is likely much different. When you order through a service like movingdayboxes.com, however, you have a comprehensive product portfolio available to you, and you have the option to custom order and buy preconfigured room kits.
The standard moving boxes popular with El Paso residents range from 1.5 cubic feet to 6.0 cubic feet. The 1.5s are perfect book boxes and for moving heavy electronics. The 6.0s are oversized boxes. You definitely don’t want to over-pack them, but they’re a great choice if, for example, you have a large number of pillows or lightweight toys. The standard, all-purpose moving box is 4.0-4.5 cubic feet.
There is also a wide range of specialty moving boxes available for El Paso moves. For instance, dish packs, also called china barrel, are boxes with inserts that move your glasses and dishware safely. Typically, these cartons are about 4.0 cubic feet, and the inserts are removable. What’s nice about that is that dish packs serve dual purpose as “standard” moving boxes, so you can buy “breathing room” without worrying about throwing money away.
Another excellent money saver is our array of wardrobe boxes, which come in standard, short stack, stand up and lay down. Many people simply back their clothes, especially work clothes, and then arrive to find them wrinkled or worse. With wardrobe boxes, you can simply move your wardrobe straight from the closet or dresser to the carton and have them arise as is. In other words, there’ll be no need for washing or dry-cleaning when you arrive.
Other popular specialty boxes include lamp boxes, utility cartons, mattress boxes and mirror/picture boxes. Lamp boxes are sized to move a lamp plus lampshade securely. Utility cartons are perfect for sporting equipment and tools. Mattress boxes protect mattresses and box springs, and mirror/picture boxes range from small to large and allow you to move mirrors, paintings, framed pictures and so forth.
What separates movingdayboxes.com from your other options is direct shipping and bulk buying power. The local shop selling moving boxes in El Paso has to pay overhead, account for storage and deal with shipping and markup between them and the manufacturer. They also have to turn a profit. In light of that, it’s no wonder that those people in Homestead Meadows are paying as much as they do.
At movingdayboxes.com, we don’t have those problems. The boxes are made at the manufacturer when you order them, and then they’re shipping directly to you. The markup and the shipping are both minimal, which is why we can offer you the cheapest prices available anywhere. The only thing better than our prices is our customer service. Don’t delay.
