PLASTIC BOXES VS. CARDBOARD BOXES
There are many aspects that make our Plastic STORAGE boxes the smarter choice when it comes to moving household or business contents. Reusable Plastic STORAGE boxes are convenient and they’re actually the more environmentally responsible choice too.

CONVENIENCE, EFFICIENCY AND PROTECTION

Plastic storage boxes are ready-made, saving time otherwise spent assembling and then breaking down cardboard boxes.

They have a snap on lid – no more sealing and then unsealing boxes.

Plastic storage boxes are more protective of items inside and won’t warp with heavier items as cardboard can do.

They are made to be efficiently stacked on top of each other – quite unlike over-packed cardboard boxes. Plastic STORAGE boxes eliminate accidental damage by collapsing boxes or towers of boxes that fall over.

Moving times may actually be reduced by the efficiency factor. Our movers will be able to easily and safely stack items in a truck and that takes a lot of the guesswork out of the whole moving process. In short, it’s a less stressful move for everyone concerned.

PLASTIC AS THE GREENER CHOICE
It’s funny but many people have a kind of resistance towards thinking of plastic in terms of being environmentally responsible. Yet, when it comes to the moving industry, plastic is the environmentally friendly solution to getting the job done. Plastic – in general – actually does have a greener carbon footprint than cardboard in some important aspects.

Paper production is much more energy intensive than producing plastic – in fact the paper industry represents the largest industrial use of energy worldwide.

Paper and cardboard produce methane (a so-called “greenhouse gas”) as they decompose in the landfill while plastic sequesters its carbon forever.

REDUCE AND REUSE
The facts are clear. In 2007 alone, over 6.4 billion cardboard boxes were used to ship items via ground or air. Paper products are recyclable yet landfills in North America typically contain about thirty percent paperboard material. Reusable plastic moving STORAGE boxes can take a chunk out of those numbers and help to reduce the consumption of paper.
