The use of moving boxes speeds up your move
Rent moving boxes with carrying handles to speed up your move and protect your belongings from damage and dirt. Stackable moving boxes take up little space, are easy to move and pack in the moving truck. We machine wash the boxes after each move, so they are guaranteed to be clean. Use lockable boxes for the secure transfer of confidential documents.
Moving boxes by quantity of goods
On average, one moving box is needed per square metre of dwelling. For example, one moving box can hold about one shelf metre of books. You can order moving boxes and other moving equipment and packing supplies from our online shop, where you can also find delivery and pick-up charges and delivery times by location. You can order a low-cost home delivery and pick-up service for your moving boxes, or you can collect them from one of our branches and return them to another if necessary.
We machine wash the moving boxes after each use, so they are always clean for reuse. So you can pack not only your dishes, books and other belongings, but also clothes and bedding, for example.
Moving boxes can be stacked and also locked
The moving boxes can be stacked on top of each other to take up less space and can be moved easily with a trolley. A single trolley can carry four boxes.
Fill the box only up to the handle, and don’t leave loose papers on top, for example, to avoid being blown away by the wind.
The box can also be ordered with a lockable lid, so that confidential documents, for example, can be transferred safely to a new address.
The loading space in the moving van can be used more efficiently, for example by loading beds or mattresses directly onto the moving box stacks.
Green recycling boxes
When you book a move with us, you can order green recycling boxes free of charge alongside our red moving boxes. We’ll collect the contents of the green boxes at no extra cost.
We can also collect larger items that don’t fit in the boxes, including furniture, for an affordable per-item fee.
The contents of the green boxes and any furniture collected are sorted by condition and material, then directed to reuse, material recycling or energy recovery.
