"Isn't cardboard more sustainable than plastic though?"

Since the 1960s, we’ve been moving using single-use materials like cardboard boxes. But they actually aren’t biodegradable, and they release toxic chemicals that take a toll on the environment.

  • cardboard boxes are used in the US for moving each year
  • rolls of tape are used in the US for moving each year
  • of cardboard heads to the landfill instead of being recycled

Skip the cardboard. Switch to crates today.

I used Rentacrate and it was a GAME CHANGER. The crates stack (so neatly) onto rolling dollies and it makes moving boxes a breeze!
