How many moving boxes are needed for your move?

One of the questions you need to ask yourself when you are planning your move is: how many moving boxes do I need? Estimating the number of moving boxes you need can be difficult, especially if you have never done it before. But even if this is not your first move, you might have moved to a bigger home and this time, you may have more items to move.

 

How can we estimate the number of moving boxes that you will need?

At Oranje Transport BV we like to keep things simple. Lucky for you, we have over 10 years of experience as a professional moving company.

It’s a fact that most people underestimate how much stuff they have. They start packing the first 10 boxes, only to realise that was just enough to pack the items from one room.
