Not All Moving Boxes Are Equal

The boxes at Perth hardware stores and supermarkets are made from recycled cardboard of inconsistent grade — fine for light storage, but not purpose-built for the demands of a full Perth house move.

Hire A Box moving boxes are made from virgin (non-recycled) board at a premium grade — stiffer, more consistent, and far less likely to bow or fail when fully loaded and stacked in a Perth removal truck. Every box passes a durability check before delivery.

How to Pack Moving Boxes for Your Perth Move

Good packing is the difference between a smooth Perth move and a stressful one. Follow these six professional tips from our team.

01

🏋️ Heavy items in medium boxes

Books, crockery, and tools should go in medium boxes. A large box packed with heavy items becomes impossible to lift safely — and risks splitting the base in a removal truck.

02

🫧 Wrap fragile items individually

Use butchers paper or bubble wrap for every fragile piece. Wrap plates vertically, not flat, for extra strength. Moving within Perth, the Kwinana Freeway and Mitchell Freeway are busy corridors — well-packed, firmly sealed boxes ensure your belongings arrive safely no matter the route.

03

📐 Fill boxes to the top

Partially filled boxes collapse when stacked. Fill any gaps with scrunched paper, clothing, or linen before sealing. A firm, square box stacks safely in the truck.

04

🏷️ Label every box by room AND contents

Label every box by room AND contents

Write the destination room on all four sides. Add a rough contents list so you can prioritise which boxes to open first without unpacking everything at your new Perth address.

05

🎒 Pack a "first night" box last

The last box you pack should be the first you open — kettle, phone charger, toilet paper, change of clothes, medications. Label it clearly and put it in the car, not the truck.

06

🔓 Leave a few boxes open for last-minute items

Keep a small number of boxes open for last-minute essentials, but seal completed boxes properly so they stay strong and stack safely for your Perth move.

Moving Box Questions — Perth

Everything you need to know about getting moving boxes delivered in Perth.

Do you deliver moving boxes in Perth?+
Yes. Hire A Box delivers moving boxes to most Perth metro suburbs — CBD, Western Suburbs (Cottesloe, Nedlands, Subiaco), Inner North (Mount Lawley, Leederville), Northern Suburbs (Joondalup, Scarborough, Karrinyup), South of River (South Perth, Applecross, Canning Vale), Fremantle and more. Enter your postcode on the order page to confirm coverage.
Next-day delivery is available Monday to Friday for most Perth suburbs. Same-day delivery may be possible in inner Perth areas — call us on 1300 858 446 in the morning to check. When ordering online, you select a 2-hour delivery window so you know when to expect us.
Hire A Box charges $3.25 per medium box and $4.35 per large box (tea chest) for hire. A refundable deposit of $1.60 per medium and $2.50 per large is paid at checkout — fully refunded within 5 business days after collection. Free delivery on hire orders over $65 to any Perth address.
Yes. Our Perth delivery drivers deliver to apartments, high-rise buildings, and units throughout the CBD, Northbridge, East Perth, West Perth, Subiaco and all inner-city suburbs. If you live in a building with a loading dock or secure entry, just add instructions in the order notes and our driver will follow them.
No. Hire A Box Perth delivers Monday to Friday only — weekend delivery is not available in Perth. If you need boxes before the weekend, place your order by Thursday for Friday delivery with your preferred 2-hour window. For urgent enquiries call 1300 858 446.
No. All Perth toll and distance costs are included in the delivery price — we do not charge extra for travel to outer suburbs including Joondalup, Rockingham, Midland or Armadale. What you see at checkout is what you pay.
A typical 2-bedroom Perth apartment or unit requires 25–35 medium boxes, 8–12 large boxes and 2–3 porta robe boxes. Perth apartments tend to be larger than Perth equivalents, so the lower end of the range may be sufficient. As always, your first top-up delivery over $35 is free.
Same-day delivery may be available in some Perth suburbs depending on stock and driver availability. Call 1300 858 446 as early as possible in the morning to check. Next-day delivery is reliably available for all Perth metro areas when ordered online before midnight the previous day.
Hiring is typically cheaper than buying for most Perth moves if you return the boxes. When you hire, the deposit ($1.60 medium, $2.50 large) is fully refunded after return — so your actual cost is just $3.25 or $4.35 per box. If you plan to keep boxes permanently or need them for more than 3 months, buying makes more sense.
Yes. Hire A Box delivers to Perth's Northern Suburbs including Joondalup, Wanneroo, Clarkson, Mindarie, Currambine, Scarborough, Doubleview, Karrinyup, Balcatta and Stirling. Enter your postcode on our order page to confirm availability and delivery times.
Yes. When ordering boxes from Hire A Box, you can also request a quote for Perth removalists via Hire A Mover Perth or professional packers via Hire A Packer — both part of the same Hire Group family. Book either service and receive a 10% rebate on your box order once the move is complete.
When you've finished unpacking at your new Perth address, visit hireabox.com.au and click Hire Return to schedule a free collection. Our driver will come to your Perth address and count the boxes. Your deposit is refunded within 5 business days — to your original card or via EFT.
Yes. Hire A Box delivers moving boxes to Fremantle, North Fremantle, South Fremantle, Cottesloe, Claremont, Nedlands, Dalkeith, Swanbourne, Mosman Park and all Western Suburbs. Free delivery is available on hire orders over $65.
In addition to moving boxes, Hire A Box supplies bubble wrap, butchers packing paper, packing tape, tape dispensers, permanent markers, mattress covers, and porta robe boxes with metal rails — all delivered to your Perth address in the same order.
