We’ve compiled our most commonly asked questions relating to moving boxes, packing material and more

What is the ideal box size for moving?

Medium boxes (18 x 18 x 15 inches, 22 x 16 x 15 inches or 3 cubic feet) are the most common moving boxes. They are suitable for office supplies, records, toys, small appliances, decor, photo albums, and most household items.

How many boxes do I need to move a house?

Generally, you will need at least ten large packing boxes per room of the house, fifteen medium-sized boxes, or eight extra-large boxes. This rule applies to each room in the house.

How can I strengthen cardboard boxes?

It’s important to purchase good quality, professional-grade moving boxes. If you need to strengthen your cardboard box, here are five simple ways:

1. Reinforce any gaps.
2. Pad the length of the corners with cardboard inserts.
3. Add a cardboard layer at the bottom.
4. Tape over all inside joints and edges.
5. Double box it.

How many times should you tape a moving box?

Tape the bottom three times with heavy-duty packing tape and make sure to tape the top closed as well. Avoid folding one end closed to save time, as it could cause problems later.

How to pack moving boxes correctly?

If you’re using a standard moving box, add extra padding on the bottom and sides. Individually wrap each plate and bowl with packing paper, ensuring there’s enough padding between them as you stack them vertically in the box.

How do you mark boxes for movers?

Use colored permanent markers, dedicating each color to a different room (e.g., yellow for the kitchen, purple for the bedroom). Color-code the boxes for each room with a big mark in the designated color so that movers know exactly where to drop each box.

We recommend you putting your last name when labelling moving boxes. This is especially important for long-distance moves, where there may be other shipments on the truck with your belongings, or if your items need to be transferred from one truck to another. This reduces the chance of missing items.
