I opted for large plastic boxes with wheels. Easier to stack and nicer looking for storing unwanted or unneeded items.

I bought 2 types. The Tesco 45L for 36 bucks and the Mr DIY 40L for 30 bucks.

Both way better than cartons which will be damaged during transportation and may attract termites.

Yeah I am moving house in 3 months time when my house and spa process completed.

Rm4.50 for the carton box?

Ic.

U engage processor mover for all-in-one service?

Then u still got time, I m moving on next week. Lol

Found two, then my wife choose the one which the boss is more keen to guild us. Actually most are the same one la, 3 tons lorry plus wrapping and 3 movers charge 900-1k for one trip.

Now the issue is where to get the paper box. This mover willing help me to get recycle box with RM4.5 per carton. Think I will just take his offer first.

I leave my sofa and dining table plus some other furniture at old house. If include them, think need two round or 5 tons lorry. The rest will use mine and my father SUV to move slowly

Yea but then again you could ask the mover ,they might be charge slightly cheaper,
Anyway, corrugated carton is not cheap, depending on size & its thickness

Ic. Indeed. Can tell that the price is not cheap.

For those all-in-one moving service, they will pack for us is it? So they will prepare the box for this? So actually I do not need to buy the box rite?

Icic. Ok. I will check it out. It is a painful process to move.

I think I will make use of this chance to pack those I will never use into certain boxes and will not unpack them after the move.

Only unbox those items that I will use on day to day basis.
