Proper Box Sizes When Packing To Move

PLEASE use the RIGHT BOXES to prevent any issues with your move. This is an extremely important part of your moving success. Using the correct boxes not only makes your move easier to complete with less chance of damage, but helps cut down on the labor time. Whenever our movers are bringing boxes up or down flights of steps, it is important to try and keep your boxes below 40-50 pounds each. Our crews have the right to deny going up or down flights of steps with boxes over 50lbs.
