Old Milltown Storage Inc.

We recycle all used boxes, so after your move is complete. Just return any unwanted but still usable boxes to us.

Packing tips:

Make sure you pickup the right kind of boxes for your items. We  offer a number of different choices whether it's electronics boxes, clothing boxes, or just the normal packing box. Visit our showroom to pick-up any supplies you need to make your move easier.

Group items of similar size and weight. Try not to mix belongings from different rooms of your home. First, pour a layer of packing peanuts into the bottom of the box. Wrap heaviest items first with bubble wrap or packing paper and place them in the bottom of the box.

  Wrap additional, lighter items with bubble wrap or packing paper and separate them from items in the bottom of the box with cushion foam. Place heavier items on the bottom and lighter items on top.

  Before closing your box, cushion the entire package using packing peanuts or crumpled packing paper stuffed firmly into unfilled spaces to prevent shifting and damage to your goods. Your filled box should not weigh more than about 30 pounds, or that which you can lift easily. Under packed boxes may collapse in transit, while over packed boxes can rupture, damaging belongings.

  Close the box and seal it with sturdy packing tape. Label the box with its contents and destination room.
