Think Outside the Moving Box
Our moving crates may be blue to the naked eye, but the color you will see when you use them for your next office move is clear green.
Plastic crates are the truly economically and ecologically friendly solution for packing desk contents and files for a commercial moving project. You protect the environment and you protect your wallet. It’s a “win-win.” for customers.
So why should you move outside the moving box with crates? Here are five good reasons:
More Capacity- Each crate has more space (cubic footage) than a typical moving box. This means you use less crates than you would moving boxes. Many industry estimates put the savings at 20%-30%, depending on the size of the moving job.
Better Truck Utilization- Crates can be stacked in a more efficient manner. That allows for better usage of the capacity within a truck.
Lower Labor Costs- You can stack crates 4 high vs. 3 high for traditional moving boxes. This means movers make 25% less trips with crates than with boxes.
Lower Post Move Costs- You eliminate the disposal costs and post-move clean up of cardboard boxes.
Protect the Environment- And finally, since our crates are re-usable, you’re reducing cardboard usage and doing your small part to protect the planet.
Liberty currently has over 500 brand new plastic crates for rental. Please ask us for a cost analysis on crates vs. boxes for your next office moving project.
