What size cardboard boxes are best for house moving?

When you are moving home it can be difficult to know which types of cardboard packaging are best, and it is extremely hard to guess how many and which size of boxes are best for the job. 

You might have a large house, with only a few items in each room, or you might have a small house which is crammed with items, so it is impossible to generalise as to what you might require.




So what are the best sizes of house moving boxes to buy for moving home?


  • You could take the long technique of measuring every item in your home, one by one, and purchase the right sized boxes according to your requirement. Needless to say, this is extremely time consuming, and most people will not have the free time to do this as there are so many other things to worry about when moving home anyway. 

  • You could use the technique of purchasing lots of medium or large sized cardboard packaging boxes and hope that they do the job. Ten boxes per room is usually a good start in this instance, but you may find you end up with some items which do not fit inside. 

  • You could search for a packaging company online, and they often offer moving packs which are designed for specific sized house moves. This can give you a good idea of what you might need, and they are often made up of a variety of other packaging products as well, including tape and bubble wrap too. 

  • The technique that we recommend, is purchasing from a company that allows you to buy small numbers of heavy-duty boxes for moving at a time, and then purchase a few packs of average sized boxes, and then if you run out or find that some items are too big or too small, then just top up the quantity that you need as you go. You might need to pay a little extra for postage, but it is worth it, and will reduce wastage as well. 

  • You will want to buy boxes that are strong, and that are small enough to carry. If they are too large, they will become too heavy, and therefore impractical for the house moving process. At the same time, you do not want boxes that are too small either, so there is a middle ground that needs to be found.

How much weight can you put into a cardboard box?

If you are moving home, it is often a common thing to wonder about and something that you need to consider, as to how much weight you can put into each of the house moving boxes . This will help you to determine which things can be put into boxes, and how many things you can put into each box too, and therefore help you to decide how many moving boxes online that you need and in which sizes. The weight will vary from box to box, and the type of box that you are using, plus the size of the box that you are using. Double walled packing boxes for moving are the strongest by far. They are much more durable, and can hold much heavier things inside of them. Typically you can hold up to 30kg into a double walled cardboard box, so they are fine for carrying lots of small items and even the larger and heavier ones too. The larger the box, the more flimsy they will become however, so a really big double walled box can hold less weight than a medium sized option. A smaller box can hold a...
