How to Choose the Correct Cardboard Boxes

#1 - They are recyclable, and so are much better choices than plastic containers #2 - They can be flat packed, and so can be transported easily
#3 - They are easy to write on in a marker pen, so you can say what is in them #4 - They can be re used for storage purposes, and they last a very long time indeed if you look after them
#5 - They can be either single or double walled. The latter being the strongest kind, of course, and so we would always recommend these as the best option for house movers as it will prevent your things from getting broken or damaged #6 - Larger ones can be harder to carry, but can hold more things and can hold your larger items, so swings and roundabouts.
#7 -They can be square or rectangular, and so picking the right shape is just a case of measuring your things you are going to put in them.

Moving boxes are lightweight as well as durable, which makes them easy to carry and so they are ideal when you move home. You will often be required to help the removal company, and so making sure you can lift everything is essential. The boxes will need to fit inside of the removal van too, so bare that in mind when you choose.
