Often many thoughts occur when considering whether to buy new moving
boxes or used. From experience in the moving industry I have seen many different types of boxes from everywhere you can imagine.
Lets consider the most important issue, Cost… You can find used boxes from the grocery store, dumpsters and from people who recently moved, this is the cheapest way to get moving boxes but then you don’t know what has been inside of the boxes, the dumpster boxes could be soiled and have weak seems which would not allow many boxes packed on top of each other not to mention bugs! So the decision is up to you.
The next step is very important. While loading the moving truck if you use new boxes which are the same size you can create a wall which saves a lot of room in the truck to enable you to load the furniture and not run out of room. New Moving Boxes are always best and remember to buy plenty of tape and packing paper to protect your valuable glassware.
