Packing Supplies in San Antonio, Texas

1.5 cubic foot moving box

The smallest box sold at At Texas Best Moving & Storage it’s often referred to as the book or record box; best used for small heavy objects like books, records, cans, jars of food, utensils, flatware, shoes, etc.

3 cubic foot moving box

Referred to as the lamp or lampshade box; frequently used interchangeably with the 1.5 cubic foot box

4.5 cubic foot moving box

As the box gets larger, use for lighter objects such as pillows, bedding and stuffed animals

6 cubic foot box

Use for light objects; if you pack heavy items in this box it will be difficult to move.

Picture or mirror moving box

A four-piece box that can come in large or small sizes; can be customized by telescoping in and out; use crumpled packing paper in the corners to add cushion and make sure to wrap your mirror or picture with bubble wrap before placing it in the box

Wardrobe moving boxes

Allows clothes to be transported on hangers; includes a metal bar along top of box to hang clothing

Boxes for moving dishes

Also called a barrel, dish barrel or dish box; it’s the strongest box available; pack fragile, breakable items such as china; usually used for kitchen items

Dish pack inserts

Cardboard that goes inside the dish pack boxes to form individual cells for fragile items; inserts adjustable; extra cardboard piece included to be used as springboard to cushion

Packing paper/plain newsprint

Used to wrap everyday items to prevent scratching; when crunched up it can be used as cushioning

Tissue paper

Softer than newsprint, used for wrapping very delicate items; also provides cushioning and fills in small spaces when packing fragile figurines and china

Bubble wrap

Plastic packing material made up of hundreds of tiny “air cushions” or bubbles used to over-wrap small, delicate items after they are wrapped in tissue; also helpful when wrapping larger fragile items such as lamps and pictures

Pink anti-static bubble wrap

Used to wrap electronics including stereos and computers. It is similar to traditional bubble wrap but does not cause static electricity. If traditional bubble wrap is used to pack these items, a static electric charge could be created, damaging the item.

Duck® tape/Sealing tape

Plastic tape, 1.5 inches (3.81 cm) to 2 inches (5.08 cm) wide; best for packing, test to see if it ruins finish before taping up drawers and canisters. Use clear Duck® packing tape only and make sure to seal your boxes with packing tape. Duct tape doesn’t adhere well to corrugated cardboard. Boxes put together with duct tape will fall apart.

Permanent marker

Used to label boxes with contents and destination in new location; mark boxes “fragile” and “this side up” when appropriate

Resealable plastic bags

Used for nuts and bolts as you disassemble items, tape bag to disassembled item

Beware of used boxes

People sometimes try to pack their belongings in used boxes to save money. Beware: Produce boxes often become weakened from the moisture of transportation or product spoilage. Additionally, insects often nest in used boxes.
