Moving Boxes. How Many?
Moving Boxes. How Many?
Moving Boxes. How Many? This is the second most common question customer ask us. The first question is do we sell boxes. Yes. Really. Depending on how long you have lived in your current abode you may need more than just a few. when is the last time you organize your closets? When is the last time you cleaned and organized your kitchen cabinets? When was the last time…you get the point. Now add all the stuff you kids have squirreled away and the number of boxes can grow. Over the last seven years we have developed a rule of thumb for the number of boxes you should need to move everything you own.
Rule of Thumb for Moving Boxes
When you stop at the Boxes Near Me warehouse we will ask you two questions. 1) What is the square footage of your current place and 2) How full is your place. Generally the more square footage your place is the more stuff you are likely to have. This question also implies how long you have lived in the same place. The longer you live in the same place the more stuff you accumulate. After several years you are not aware of what you may have or even where its located. Everyone is guilty of this. We use these two questions to give you a rough estimate of how many boxes you should need to move.
Ok, So how many boxes do I need
I am glad you asked this question. We use 1000 sq ft as the starting point and your best guess on how much stuff you have in your closets. In our judgment based on hundreds of people buying boxes over the last seven years you will need 30 boxes for every 1000 sq ft with your closets at 50% full. This number of boxes is your starting point. Next is the size of box. The most popular size based on what customers have purchased is our medium box. The medium box is not too small and not too big. It is just right to pack your stuff. We also suggest a few standard large boxes and standard book boxes for those things that are either too big or too small to use the medium boxes efficiently.

Who Finds Vaccine First?
Who Finds Vaccine First?
Who Finds Vaccine First? Who do you think is going to find the first successful Covid-19 vaccine first? There are 165 vaccine candidates of which 31 are in human trials as of today. Companies from all over the world are racing to find a vaccine. If you believe Russian account they already have a vaccine without doing much of the testing required by the rest of the world.
Who has the Incentive to find a Vaccine?
Governments? The Pharmaceutical Industry? If you said anyone other than a parent who has been trapped with their kids in the house for months you are wrong. Of course I am joking. It is the parents working in those companies working on a vaccine that have the incentive to create a virus. Every parent has not been around their kids 24/7 since before they started school are now highly stressed. They have been looking forward to having their kids out of the house for even a few hours. Will that happen? Let’s hope so sooner than later.

Protect your Fragile items
What is the worst thing that happens during a move? Other than losing your belongings and maybe losing your sanity, it is finding momentos or irreplaceable cherished keepsakes broken. This is where packing paper will prevent the stress a finding broken items at the bottom of a moving box.
How much paper do you need
There is no such thing as wrapping an item with too much paper. Paper is there to protect both the object wrapped and to protect it from other things in the box. A typical sheet of wrapping paper at Boxes Near Me is 36×24. One sheet is more than enough for most items. If you think it is too big for your items it is easily torn in half.
Paper is too expensive
The cost of everything is relative. Do you want to skimp on a piece of paper that sells for .0899 cents? What are your momentos or keepsakes worth to you? Hopefully more than .0899 cents. There are ways of saving money during a move. Not wrapping your fragile items should not be one of them.

A bubble for your troubles
Other than the obvious uses for bubble wrap I found bubble wrap can stop a fussy toddler in their tracks. When I managed a store I would always keep a small sheet of bubble wrap under the counter to stop a toddler from crying. The effect of watching a toddler’s reaction go from fussy to whoa what is that is too funny. All I had to do is pop one bubble to get their attention. The child’s head would turn, the crying would stop. When I popped the second bubble the eyes would go wide, a big smile would appear magically on their face and laughter would follow. When I gave the child the sheet of bubble mom or dad would have one happy child. Sometimes I think the parent would be just as amazed as their child.
