Call SMARTBOX – there are no hidden fees with SMARTBOX. Talk to our moving experts and get a quote for all your moving and storage containers. The quote is the price you will pay. Guaranteed.
Buy your moving supplies online at SMARTBOX – Boxes, tape, markers, and bubble-wrap can be much cheaper when bought well in advance and online.
You can get some boxes from grocery stores or retail stores. Order boxes for your more fragile items; these boxes are usually sturdier.
Improvise with some supplies. You can pack up fragile items with newspaper and your own towels. Just be prepared to wash everything after unpacking. You will want to use bubble wrap for your irreplaceable fragile items.
Borrow tools instead of buying them – Borrow an appliance dolly if possible from a friend or from work.
Don’t move what you don’t need – When packing, set aside boxes to collect items to donate as well as items to throw away. If you have time you can organize a moving sale to minimize some of your moving expenses.
