How to Buy Smart

Check the Box Quality

  • Look for water damage (brown stains, soft spots)

  • Press corners - they should feel firm

  • Avoid boxes with holes or tears

  • Small dents are usually fine

Get the Right Size

  • Measure your items first

  • Heavy items need small boxes (books, dishes)

  • Light items can go in big boxes (pillows, clothes)

  • Better to have boxes slightly too big than too small

Buy in Bulk

  • Ask for discounts when buying 10+ boxes

  • Split larger orders with friends or neighbors

  • Stock up if you ship regularly
