Empty Boxes

A quick tip for what to do with your empty boxes once you have moved (assuming you are using them, and not hiring plastic crates).

Flatten them and neatly place them in separate piles depending on size. Put them somewhere that they won’t be in your way and call your removal company as soon as possible to schedule a time when they can collect. If you’re lucky they will come within a day or two, but it has been known to be longer.

If you have moved cross country and your removal company are not nearby to collect, call another local company to see if they would like to reuse the boxes. You shouldn’t have to pay them to do this, if anything you’re doing them a favour.
