Moving BoxesMake a move using the green removal alternative. New companies are now renting boxes made from recycled carton and eco-friendly packing material to make your move easier and greener.

When it’s time to move house everyone is looking for effective ways to cut costs and make the experience less disruptive. One practical approach and an affordable alternative to paying removalist, is to pack your own belongings. A number of companies are now renting moving cartons and supply tape and butchers paper, eliminating time wasted searching local supermarkets for suitable boxes and shopping for tape, wrapping materials, labels and markers.

The green alternative to moving


Recycling principals continue to gain in popularity with those who consider the environmental impact of their actions and choose the more sustainable rental option. The largest and most innovative carton rental specialists now offer ‘Pre-Green’ packing consumables that have had their low carbon emissions 100% offset. Products categorised as Pre-Green are only available from ‘Carbon Neutral’ companies. Organisations certified as carbon neutral have accounted for, reduced and neutralised the total operational emissions, as well as the emissions embodied in the products that they sell and use.

Value packs preconfigured for any sized property contain recycled cartons and Pre Green packing materials to make preparations for your move easier and greener too! The services’ extended hire period allows customers to pack and unpack at their own pace, making coping with renovation disruptions, moving home or relocating a business far less stressful. To help you with your moving operations, back saving carton lifting and carrying aids combined with a large choice of specialised packing cartons are also available.

Life is too short to waste valuable time and energy sourcing unsuitable boxes, wrapping materials and afterwards trying to dispose of all the boxes. Once unpacked and settled, you can now simply call the operators and their hired boxes will be collected, recycled or reused by the next environmentally responsible person.
