What Makes This Service Different

Boston Best Rate Movers sells professional-grade moving boxes and packing supplies directly to customers — whether you are using us for the move or packing it all yourself. Big-box stores and online retailers sell consumer-grade boxes that are typically single-walled and rated for 30-40 pounds; we sell the same double-walled, 65-pound-rated boxes our own crews use for our customer moves. Bubble wrap and packing paper are pro-grade weight. Tape is high-tack moving tape (not standard packing tape, which fails under load). The price difference vs. retail is minimal; the strength difference is significant.

What we sell: small boxes (1.5 cu ft — for books, dishes, heavy items); medium boxes (3 cu ft — for kitchen, pantry, decor); large boxes (4.5 cu ft — for clothes, linens, lampshades); extra-large boxes (6 cu ft — for bedding, pillows, lightweight bulky items); dish-pack boxes (double-walled, cell-divided — for dishes and glassware); wardrobe boxes (with hanging bars — for closet contents); mirror and picture boxes (adjustable, with foam corners); packing paper (newsprint and unprinted); bubble wrap (small-bubble and large-bubble); high-tack moving tape; tape dispensers; markers; bands and stretch wrap. Pre-built packing kits are available by home size (studio, 1BR, 2BR, 3BR, 4BR) with discounted pricing.

Stacked BBRM boxes ready for transport

Pricing examples: small boxes $1.50-$2 each, medium $2-$3, large $3-$4; dish packs $5-$7; wardrobe boxes $12-$15; packing paper (10 lb bundle) $20-$25; bubble wrap (large roll) $25-$40; tape (per roll) $4-$6. Pre-built kits: studio kit $80-$120, 1BR kit $120-$180, 2BR kit $180-$260, 3BR kit $260-$380, 4BR kit $380-$550. Free delivery within Greater Boston for orders over $100. Returns accepted on unused boxes within 30 days.

About Moving Boxes & Packing Supplies Boston

Boston Best Rate Movers supplies professional-grade moving boxes and packing materials to Greater Boston residents who are preparing for a move. Whether you are packing your own belongings before our crew arrives or handling a DIY move, our packing supplies are the same commercial-quality materials our professional packers use on every job.

These are not the flimsy, recycled boxes you find at a liquor store or big-box retailer. Our boxes are constructed from double-walled corrugated cardboard rated to hold their contents without crushing, collapsing, or giving way during transport and stacking.

We offer a full range of box sizes to match every type of item in your home. Small boxes are ideal for books, canned goods, tools, and heavy items that need to stay at a manageable weight.

Medium boxes handle kitchen items, small appliances, toys, and general household goods. Large boxes are designed for lightweight bulky items like pillows, linens, lampshades, and stuffed animals.

Moving boxes packed and labeled in a home

Wardrobe boxes include a hanging bar so your clothes transfer directly from the closet without folding or wrinkling. Specialty cartons include dish barrel boxes with extra-thick walls for kitchen contents, mirror and picture cartons that telescope to fit frames of various sizes, and TV boxes designed for specific screen dimensions.

Our bundle packages offer the best value for customers who need a full set of supplies. Packages start at $159.50 and include a curated selection of boxes in multiple sizes, packing paper, bubble wrap, tape, and markers.

Bundles are sized for different apartment and home types, so you get the right quantity of materials without overbuying or making emergency runs for additional boxes mid-pack. Individual boxes and materials are also available for purchase if you need to supplement a bundle or just pick up a few specific items.

Individual pricing covers every supply you might need: small, medium, and large boxes, wardrobe cartons, dish barrels, mirror and picture boxes, mattress bags, sofa covers, packing paper by the bundle, bubble wrap by the roll, stretch wrap, packing tape, tape dispensers, permanent markers, and box cutters.

Our crew can deliver supplies to your home in advance of your move date, or you can pick them up from our Waltham location. Using professional-grade packing materials significantly reduces the risk of damage during a move.

Proper box sizes prevent overpacking and underpacking, both of which cause breakage. Quality packing paper protects surfaces without leaving ink stains the way newspaper does.

Commercial bubble wrap and foam pouches absorb shock far better than towels and t-shirts. With over 33,158 moves completed and 1,091+ Google reviews, Boston Best Rate Movers knows exactly what materials work and which ones lead to problems.

Our supply pricing starts at $149 per hour for delivery, with no hidden fees. Licensed under USDOT #1718049 since 2002.

Each bundle includes the right mix of box sizes, packing paper, bubble wrap, tape, and markers for that home size. Bundles save 10-15% compared to buying items individually.

As a general rule: studio = 15-25 boxes, 1-bedroom = 25-40 boxes, 2-bedroom = 40-60 boxes, 3-bedroom = 60-80 boxes, and 4+ bedroom = 80-120+ boxes. Our bundle packages are sized based on these ranges from decades of experience. If you are unsure, our team can help estimate based on your specific home.

Contact us to discuss return options for unused, unassembled boxes. We recommend ordering slightly more than you think you need — running out of boxes mid-packing causes delays and stress. Any unused boxes from a bundle can be discussed with our team.
