Everything you need to know about Renting moving boxes in Chicago

How does renting reusable plastic crates save money compared to cardboard?

Renting is typically 25–40% cheaper than buying cardboard boxes. You avoid the "hidden costs" of moving: purchasing packing tape, box cutters, and replacement boxes for crushed items. Plus, our packages include free delivery, pickup, and dollies, which would cost extra to rent separately.

Are plastic moving crates safer for electronics than cardboard boxes?

Yes. Our industrial-grade HDPE plastic crates are crush-proof and water-resistant, unlike cardboard which can sag or collapse under humidity. Blubox-it crates are designed to stack 5-high without putting any weight on the items inside, providing superior protection for fragile electronics, monitors, and glassware during Chicago winters or rainy days.

How much time will I save by using plastic crates?

Most customers pack 30–50% faster with reusable moving bins. Because the crates require zero assembly (no taping bottoms) and zero breakdown, you save roughly 10–15 hours of labor on a standard 2-bedroom move. You simply open the lid, pack, and snap it shut.

Do I need to buy packing tape or supplies?

No. This is a major advantage of the reusable plastic crates. Our crates feature permanently attached, interlocking lids that snap securely shut. You never need to buy, apply, or struggle with packing tape again. We also provide free identification labels with every order.

Are the bins water-resistant and crush-proof?

Yes. Our crates are made from industrial-grade HDPE plastic. They are water-resistant (perfect for moving in rain or snow) and crush-proof, designed to stack 5-high without collapsing. This offers superior protection for electronics and glassware compared to cardboard, which sags when wet or stacked.

Can I extend my rental if my closing date gets delayed?

Absolutely. We understand that moving schedules change. You can extend your rental period at any time for a small weekly fee. Simply contact our support team 48 hours before your scheduled pickup. We offer flexible scheduling to ensure you never feel rushed while unpacking your new home.

What are the dimensions of the crates?

Our standard crate dimensions are; length – 23″, height – 15.5″, width – 12″.

Can I move out of state with these crates?

Blubox-it is primarily a local crate rental service. Because we must retrieve the crates after your move, we generally service moves originating and ending within the Greater Chicago area. If you are moving long-distance but staying within our service zone, please contact us for a custom quote.
