What Questions Should I Ask Before Ordering Moving Boxes?

Moving boxes are not all the same in quality, so it is very important to ask if the moving boxes you are about to buy have been certifed paperboard standard thirty-two ECT or edge-crush test. While this may sound like industry jargon (and it is) this shows that your moving boxes will meet the minimum strength requirements of the moving boxes industry. Many moving box marketers will claim that they meet this standard. However when you receive the boxes they are missing the manufacturers seal with the edge crush test limit. This is a red flag. It is possible you are buying moving boxes that have been recycled. It is ok to purchase moving boxes that are made of recycled material, but new celluose (wood pulp) has to be introduced into the mix to make sure the moving box is strong enough.
