Straight answer: it depends on how long your move takes and whether you already own a dolly.
Your move is spread over several weeks, you're storing things long-term in the boxes, or you're shipping items you won't unpack at the other end. Rented boxes come back to us, so anything that needs to stay boxed for months should go in cardboard you keep.
You're moving over a weekend or a week, locally, and you want to unpack and be done. That's most residential moves in Guelph, Kitchener, Waterloo and Cambridge. You pack, you move, you unpack, we collect. The dolly that comes with the package usually saves more time than the boxes themselves.
Disposal. Once you've unpacked, thirty-odd cardboard boxes have to be broken down and driven somewhere, or they sit in the garage. That work doesn't show up in the price on the shelf, but you still pay for it — on the far side of the move, when you have the least energy for it.
Packages run from $99 for a dorm or single bedroom up to $239 for a three-bedroom house, with larger homes, offices and multi-unit jobs quoted. Delivery, pickup and the dolly are in the price. There's a two-week rental window on every package, which covers a normal local move with room to spare.
If your move is bigger or more commercial than that, MovingBinRental.ca is set up for bulk and office jobs.
