There are a few reasons why using packing materials provided by storage companies might be preferable.
High-Quality Materials
Storage companies tend to have access to high-quality packing materials so you can rest assured that your belongings are well-protected both in transit and in storage.
Standardised Pricing
Storage companies have standardised pricing in place for their own packing materials. They provide accurate dimensions of their boxes so that you can figure out what size and how many boxes you might need. The price will be based on these dimensions. Using your own materials could complicate the pricing or make it more expensive.

Storage companies like The Box Co. offer maximum convenience - providing you with packaging materials before the move so that you can get packed up and ready with the right materials and with plenty of time. They even offer to come and pack up your belongings for you before the move.
Are Packing Materials Included In The Price Of Storage Companies?
Packing materials usually have an additional cost but this can be very low, from as little as £4.65 for a small box.
When you request a quote for a full packing service, it will include the total price for monthly storage as well as the packaging materials and the price to collect your belongings.
