How Many Moving Boxes Should I Buy?

Short answer: Enough! You will know you have enough moving boxes when you complete our long-distance moving checklist and the first order of business is to donate or get rid of items no longer useful. So, once we establish a supply of belongings, we can then determine demand for boxes. Simple!

When it comes to deciding how many moving boxes you will need, it’s better to be a bit over, and not under. The reasoning is usually DIY packers who make poor packing decisions if they feel they may not have enough boxes. It also compels movers to run out and purchase very expensive, cheap boxes from a local store.

Large, heavy or smaller, pliable items may require a family packing strategy meeting. Make use of your biggest boxes for light, pliable like linens, pillows, and blankets. For big, heavy items like wall mirrors, there are special boxes to use.

A good foundation for moving box demand: A conventional three-bedroom home will need about 125 packing boxes for out-of-state moves. Examine the below factors and tweak your number up/down based on where you fall within these moving variables.

  • Square footage – The more space you have, the more stuff you store.
  • Number of rooms – More rooms generally mean more boxes.
  • Time in Your home – Longer time typically increases supply of items.
  • Number of family members – You got this one!
  • Lifestyle – This is tricky and the time to get honest when you begin the initial divesture of unused items. This is where you have to decide whether you’re a Spartan minimalist, a moderate, or a hoarder (or collector, if you prefer)!

What to do with non-perishable food items?

Simple! Box them up and give them to your Colonial movers on moving day. If you have a ton, that’s great, but let our moving team know in advance to ensure moving truck space. Either way, when you donate your pantry food you’re helping your local community fight food scarcity and MOVE FOR HUNGER!

With thousands of households moving every day, Move for Hunger is an important & proud charity.
