Packing your moving boxes efficiently offers many benefits. With the right packing techniques, you can reduce the number of moving boxes you use, reduce breakage and make unpacking more efficient, too! Here are 7 tips to help your moving day go more smoothly.
Get rid of stuff!
For most people, moving doesn't come as a surprise. Begin your move planning by getting rid of items you don't use. Start this process 90 days before moving day. Be ruthless and aggressive! If you have a house full of stuff, consider renting a dumpster to get rid of your unwanted, broken household items.

Anything that's broken, outdated, too small/big, unused - get rid of. For tax purposes, you need to keep the last seven years' worth of records. In 2020, that means you keep records from January 1, 2013-presen. Ditch everything else.

Take advantage of e-waste recycling events to get rid of broken or obsolete electronics. Likewise, get rid of household toxics, like old cleaning supplies, paints, used motor oil, etc. responsibly. These items cannot go in the trash, but your county government likely maintains a list of places that will accept them, sometimes for a fee.
Sort, sort, sort
When you have purged the items that won't be filling your moving boxes, sort the items that will be making the trip. By categorizing items, you keep the packing process moving forward productively. The sorting process will help you identify items you don't want, but could still be useful to someone.

Sort and pack all clothing together (by season, if you're inclined). Sort and pack books, kitchen items, bathroom items, etc. together. Keeping related items together will also help you unpack after you're in your new space.
Donate or sell what you can't bear to throw out
Just because you can't use something doesn't mean no one can. Donate any unused working small appliances, clothing in good condition, abandoned hobby items, etc. Some thrift shops and libraries will sometimes accept unwanted books to sell. No one wants paper copies of old magazines, so recycle those. You might find that you can convert some of your unwanted items to cash. List these things on eBay, price them to move, and put a final date on the sale. If an item doesn't sell, donate it.
Store packed items you plan to take
When you have a moving company lined up, they may be able to store some of your household items, furniture and packed moving boxes prior to the big day. The goal is to get as much out of the house as possible, so this is a good way to reduce the amount of stuff in your home. By storing your packed belongings with your moving company prior to your move, you can help the movers get the remaining belongings out of your house efficiently on moving day. If that's not an option, designate a space in your house for storing packed items. Pack only the items you're sure you won't need. Once you've packed an item, leave it that way until after the move!
Use high quality moving boxes
Cheap moving boxes or freebies that you collect from a store may save you a few bucks, but they won't protect your belongings during a move. Use high quality moving boxes, packing materials, strapping, wrapping and strong packing tape, which offer the best protection for your possessions.
Use the right moving boxes
Some people habitually store the boxes that their belongings came in. If you have the original box for your television, computer, etc., you can repack these items in their original packaging. If not, consult with your moving company about getting the right moving boxes for your fragile belongings. Do not over- or under-pack boxes, and make sure your electronics and delicate items will not shift in the box during the move. Your moving company can supply fillers like bubble wrap, packing peanuts, paper and other cushioning material. Pack items snugly, so that they cannot move freely in each box.

Put heavy items in the smallest possible box. If you have dozens of books, pack them in small boxes. This helps reduce the weight of the box, and ensures that your books will make it to their destination unharmed!

Secure all liquids in plastic bags or tightly sealable containers to help prevent leaks and contain messes if something breaks in transit.
Use descriptive labeling
After you seal up your moving boxes, they all look the same! Use descriptive labels for each box. Minimally, the label should include the room the box should go into and the box contents. You can number the boxes if you want, but the more information on the outside of the box, the faster your unpacking will go.
Discuss what to expect on moving day
Moving may be a new experience for you, but professional movers have done this many times! When moving day arrives, the movers will load and secure all of your furniture first. The boxes get loaded second, and removed from the truck first. Be available to answer questions from the movers, and discuss the planned schedule so everyone knows when to expect the truck. Pack clothing and personal items that you'll need until the movers arrive with your belongings, and store those separately.

Collin Box provides a wide range of moving supplies. Our high-quality boxes, tapes, packing material and blankets will protect your possessions while they're in transit. Don't rely on previously used boxes that may already be damaged or weakened. Contact us at Collin Box at (508) 230-5833 or visit us on the web at https://www.collinbox.com to browse our complete line of moving supplies.

If you don't move heavy items often, you may not be familiar with moving straps. Collin Box offers two kinds of moving straps that can help prevent damage to your possessions and to you! Whether you're looking for truck straps to secure a large item, or movers straps to move a heavy item safely, Collin Box has you covered!
Secure your load with truck straps
If you're moving items yourself, tying down your load is especially important. People want to believe that heavy items can hold themselves in place while in transit. They might stay put, but if a heavy item tips, damage can result. Worse, the item could fall off an open truck, potentially injuring someone else. It can also destabilize your moving truck while it is in motion.

Truck straps help secure heavy items while they're loaded on a vehicle. They also help prevent the item from shifting, tipping or sliding while in transit. Professional movers don't let heavy remain unsecured in a moving van or truck, and neither should you.

Collin Box offer two different types of moving straps for securing items in transit: ratchet straps and cam buckle straps.

Our Kinedyne 2″ ratchet straps hold large items securely in place and come in 12′, 16′ and 20′ lengths. They're rated for 3,000 pounds and can hold large appliances, heavy furniture and even oddly shaped items securely in place.

Ratchet straps can put a lot of pressure on the item they're securing. While this is good for holding items in place, nothing in the ratchet mechanism prevents it from being over-tightened.

Our 2″ cam buckle moving straps are ideal for lightweight or delicate items that need to be secured. Unlike the ratchet strap, a cam strap cannot be over-tightened, so it's good for securing items that could otherwise be crushed by accidental over-tensioning. These straps come in 12′ and 16′ lengths.
Moving straps can help you lift heavy items safely
In addition to truck straps, Collin Box also carries movers straps. These straps enable two people to move large items like pianos or appliances like refrigerators. Movers straps allow a two-person team to use skeletal strength to safely lift and move large items without risking injury. Collin Box carries 2″ movers straps in 15′, 20′ and 25′ lengths.

Depending on its design, the typical piano can weigh between 200 and 1,200 pounds! Generally, a heavy item like a piano (or a refrigerator) must be kept upright while in motion. To move a piano, the movers must first lift it onto a dolly. By using movers straps, the team can lift a seemingly impossible amount of weight easily and safely! Once the piano (or other heavy item) is on the moving dolly, use the straps to fasten the piano (or other heavy item) securely to the wall of the moving truck.

Pianos typically lose their tuning when they're moved - even just a few feet. Once the piano has arrived at its destination, you'll want to have it retuned.

Collin Box offers moving straps and a wide range of moving supplies. Our high-quality straps will secure your possessions safely while they're in transit. Don't attempt to move a heavy item without properly securing it! Contact us at Collin Box at (508) 230-5833 or visit us on the web at https://www.collinbox.com to browse our complete line of moving straps and other moving supplies.

Running a moving company is no easy task! There are several moving parts ranging from customer satisfaction, marketing, to scheduling crews. In order to earn those important 5-star reviews crews must not only look the part, but have the tools necessary to complete the job. Selecting your moving box vendor is an important part of getting the right type of boxes for each situation that presents itself.

Not all boxes are created equally your moving company needs a box supplier that can provide a range of boxes for different scenarios. At Collin Box, supplying our clients, professional moving and storage companies, with a variety of boxes for each unique situation is important and something we take pride in.

For example:

Small Box (16 ½ X 12 5/8 x 12 5/8): Perfect for carrying small heaving items, books, or valuable record items. Keeping these types of items in a small moving box ensures items aren't over packed and decreases the chance of a box being destroyed. Furthermore, you'll protect crews by preventing boxes from becoming too heavy to be carried safely.

Medium Box (18 x 18 x 16): The medium box is perfect for safely packing small kitchen appliances like: microwaves, blenders, food processors, and even linens. These boxes can easily be carried by one person but provide enough packing room for the small appliances.

Large Box (18 x 18 x 24): This box is perfect to protect valuable lampshades, lamps, stuffed animals, toys, comforters, and more. Larger bulky items become much easier to move when they are packed into the easily stack-able large box. However, be careful not to overpack these boxes as the vast space can quickly become too heavy to carry safely.

Dish Pack Box (18 x 18 x 27): A strong, double-walled boxes ensure your dishes will make it safely from point A to point B. Using bubble wrap and packing paper and this strong box is the perfect formula for keeping valuables safe!

Extra Large Box (23 x 23 x 20): Easily carry and transport those large (but light) bulky items.

Wardrobe Box (Varies): Tall and skinny with a metal rod to hang those valuable suits, dresses, and shirts. Imagine your close in a box it's the most convenient and safest way to move clothing.

The moving industry can quickly become ubiquitous with so much competition. When you choose to use high quality products with the intended purpose, the success rates of jobs and happy customers will increase. Happy customers refer friends and family as well as leave great reviews. Selecting the right moving box supplier can not only save you money on supplies but also give your crews the tools they need to succeed and ultimately help your business.

Give your moving company the best chance to succeed!

It's tough to have a great brand without a great logo.

Designing a logo isn't easy. You have to create something that portrays your moving business in the right light. A lot of companies dump a lot of time, money, and effort into designing and redesigning a logo before they find a good one.

We're here to tell you that you don't have to be a graphic designer to design your logo. You just have to have an eye for what looks good, what works for your brand, and a little technical know-how.

Today we're going to discuss logo printing, so you can finally create a logo that you'll want to put on everything. Follow these tips and you'll never have to worry about logo design again.

Brand Research

To win this battle, you've got to put in your time. Doing some research into what other brands are doing and why it works for them will inform your decisions moving forward. The two main things you've got to consider are your demographic and your competition.

For moving companies, nailing down your target demographic can be tough because literally anyone can move house. You're probably mostly looking at young people and families that are moving from apartment to apartment or rental to first home.

Look at other brands that are targeting these demographics and use their logo design strategy to inspire your own. Also, look at your competition to see what they're doing right and wrong with their logos, then try to succeed where they've failed.

Reflect Your Business Visually

Consider your own brand. What is it that you're providing your customers that other moving companies don't? Filter the creative process through your brand identity and your voice and see what comes out.

Your logo should be a visual reflection of the meaning of your business. You'll know you've done it right when it feels synonymous with your business identity. Once you've got that, you can display your logo on your moving boxes, mailers and shipping tubes.

Keep It Simple

Overpowering the message of your logo with too much design flair and color will work against you. Consumers respond more to simple designs that get straight to the point.

Ultimately, you want people to look at the logo and understand your business right away. Keep it simple with fonts, visuals, and colors and you'll be able to achieve that.

Use Color

While you don't want to overdo color in your logo, you do want to have an understanding of which colors achieve which effects. Using one or two colors in your logo can be very powerful, allowing you to achieve the emotional effect that you desire.

For instance, red is associated with energy, while orange is associated with creativity. Yellow is inventive and blue is trustworthy. Black is professional, while purple is wise.

You want your logo to have an instant impact on the person viewing it, so choose your colors wisely.

If At First Your Logo Printing Doesn't Succeed...

You're not going to nail your logo on the first try. Before you start the logo printing process, you should have several, even dozens, of logos to choose from. It's important to get the right look for your company, so use your creativity and the online tools that are available to create something timeless and unique.

Once you've got your logo, plaster it on everything from boxes to labels. To get moving supplies for your business, visit us at Collin Box & Supply.

To maintain the smooth operation of your moving company, you must have a collection of quality moving supplies. Stocking up on the necessary packing supplies makes it easier for you to manage each task for a customer.

Here are the essential moving supplies you need to deliver a hassle-free and convenient service.

Cardboard Boxes Are Important Moving Supplies

Cardboard boxes are cheap moving supplies you must have for your moving company. Be sure to stock up on a collection of boxes with various sizes and shapes.

Choose strong, quality boxes that are large enough to pack different items. You need a good selection of boxes to pack electronics, clothing, picture frames, and books.

You want the assurance that you have enough boxes to perform all your projects.

Moving Blankets and Padding

The best way to protect a customer's valuable possessions is with moving blankets and padding materials.

For the duration of a move, you need peace of mind that a customer's belongings are safe and not susceptible to damage. Moving blankets and padding are supplies to protect furniture, computers, appliances, figurines, TV screens, glassware, and other fragile items.

Bubble wraps also provide a high level of protection for breakable items. They are useful to protect items from scratch marks, chipping, dropping, breaking, and other accidents during a move.

Bubble wraps are practical packing materials that are convenient, affordable, and easy to use. They also make the unpacking process quicker to manage.

It is a good idea to have a selection of large and small size bubble wraps as well as anti-static bubble wraps.

Moving Box Tapes

You need a simple way to label the boxes you pack. There are different types of moving tape you can use for your tasks.

Masking tape is a must-have item for labeling boxes. It is easy to write on this tape and to tag all the boxes you're packing. This prevents confusion and makes the process easier for a person to unpack.

Labeling different boxes give an indication of where each box is supposed to go. With masking tape, you specify which box contains kitchen supplies, bathroom supplies, electronics, and other stuff.

Choose the moving tapes that fit the needs and requirements for your moving company.

Moving Equipment

Using the right moving equipment eliminates the stress of lifting heavy boxes. A moving dolly comes in handy when you're transporting several boxes at a time.

This essential equipment makes your moving jobs faster and more efficient.

Create a Checklist for Must-Have Supplies

It is faster and easier to complete your projects when you have the right items on hand.
