If you have ever had the opportunity to move, you must have noticed that such an event required a lot of steps, time, tidying up, but also rigor. Certain items such as books must be packaged in moving boxes<\/a> adapted, others, such as crockery in reinforced boxes with handles, glasses and bottles in boxes with crossbars, etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is therefore important to be organized and opt for the best packaging product solutions. In this article you will find the best advice on where to find your moving boxes.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Collecting boxes, a bad idea?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To save some money, some individuals prefer to opt for free recovery boxes from supermarkets or use other boxes that have already been through one or more moves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although this alternative may be suitable for small moves, it is nonetheless risky and will quickly show its limits. The boxes found in supermarkets may indeed contain food residues or even insects, which could contaminate your belongings and be potentially dangerous for your health. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recovery boxes that have already been used will appear weakened by the previous move(s) and your most fragile objects such as your crockery or your paintings for example could suffer the consequences. These boxes having often been folded and then stored in the attic, garage or even the cellar, in addition to their fragility due to the previous move, they are also generally exposed to humidity, dust and insects which further contribute to their weakening. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another disadvantage, during transport, the fact that your boxes are not the same dimensions could complicate their stock in the truck as in a storage box for rent<\/a> but also expose them to a risk of falling or even breakage.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Favoring the purchase of a pack of new moving boxes seems to be ideal to avoid unpleasant surprises. They will in fact be more robust, but also easier to stack in a moving truck if they are purchased in the same dimensions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What types of packaging and boxes are essential for a move?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Depending on the items to be packed or stored, several types of moving boxes and packing accessories may be necessary. Most of the time, you will need:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Standard boxes of 30 or 60 liters;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Boxes suitable for your books;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Boxes with lattices specially designed for your bottles and glasses;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Compartmented boxes for your dishes and in particular your plates;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Wardrobe boxes with rod for your clothes;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Archive containers;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Mattress protector;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Protection of paintings;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Adhesive rolls;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Bubble wrap;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Movie ;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Filing box;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Blankets;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Markers;<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    If large volume moves may require the use of all this equipment, for small moves on the other hand, we will tend to use standard cardboard to pack everything. The ideal is therefore to opt for an offer adapted to your needs. Now let's see where to buy moving boxes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
