The Right Box for the Job

When moving properties most house movers either forget or leave until the last minute about the moving boxes & other packaging materials they will need. When they realise that they do not have these items it is a mad dash to a supermarket to see if they can grab some used, often not suitable boxes for the job in hand. What they find is that these establishments are no longer willing to give these items away due to waste laws in the retail and manufacturing trades. It’s all about environment these days.

Their next point of panic call is to your big stationary stores where they can get, at an extortionate price, some of the items they need. So where next and why all this fuss just over a cardboard box? Yes it is just a cardboard box but your possessions that you encase within them are more precious and often more expensive and harder to replace. So choosing not only the right box for the job but also the right company to supply them is paramount.

The internet is a fantastic source of information and products. For moving boxes and packaging materials you be surprised to find that there are plenty of companies out there offering the goods that you require but shop with caution. Many of these companies are just merchants (buy and sell) who buy in bulk from the manufacturers and after adding their mark up, they then sell the goods to you at the heightened price. Plenty of promises of next day delivery are made and many do not offer on their websites a postal address to contact or even answer the phone when called.

A tip to help is to look for the manufacturer, they are out there. One such company is www.boxes2move.co.uk who are part of Kenross Containers Ltd, a manufacturer of not only the moving boxes but also the cardboard from which they are made. They have been manufacturers in the trade for 40years and are a family run company who understand the needs of the purchaser.

Another tip when choosing a company no matter what the product, is to type in their name in Google and see what comes up. More often than not you will find review links good and bad. When you do this with boxes2move what you will find is that they are a reputable company that does what they say on the tin.
Do not trust testimonials that are on the company’s actual site as these can and are often manipulated and produced by the company themselves.
