Iindividual boxes for removalsSo look from the beginning for a company that supplies good quality cardboard packaging from the outset. A business that has been around for several years, who has glowing customer testimonials and then you shouldn’t be disappointed. Look for those who have a clear code of conduct, easily comprehensible terms and conditions and a spelt out returns policy.

The cardboard you buy can be double walled, or even triple walled. The more walls you have, the more sturdy and rigid the box becomes. Single wall just wont cut it for heavy or valuable items, meaning the container could break when you lift it. Again, its just a false economy. Single wall boxes may cost less, but in the long term you may end up spending a great deal more on replacing broken or damaged possessions.

They also offer a great range of different individual boxes, not forcing you into buying a moving kit.
