Quick Totes

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I save money while using QuickTotes?

Absolutely! There are several ways to save money with QuickTotes. Here are a few:

  • QuickTotes are more durable than cardboard so you can pack more (up to 60lbs) without worrying about the bottom falling out. This means you’ll need less moving boxes.
  • QuickTotes are delivered to you. No more calling around to find the best cardboard box price and then wasting valuable time picking them. And let’s not forget you don’t need rolls and rolls packing tape either!
  • QuickTotes stack neatly on top of each other making it easy for the mover to wheel them in and out of your home or office. This can shave time off of your moving fee.
Why would I pay for QuickTotes when I can get used free boxes?

QuickTotes are clean, sturdy, free of bugs, dirt, pet dander, and chemicals and bacteria that you do not want to transfer to your clothes, kitchen items, or office supplies! The EPA recommends eliminating all cardboard boxes (the bugs LOVE to hide in cardboard) and replacing with plastic moving boxes.
