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.
| Hire A Box | Hardware Store | |
|---|---|---|
| Cardboard source | Virgin non-recycled board | Recycled, inconsistent grade |
| Board grade | Premium — stiff and reliable | Standard — softer under load |
| Built for moving | Purpose-built for house moves | General storage box |
| Durability tested | Yes — before every delivery | No individual testing |
| Delivered to you | Free next-day delivery Perth | You drive and collect them |
| Hire & return | Yes — deposit refunded | Not available |

Order Your Perth Boxes →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.
🏋️ 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.
🫧 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.
📐 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.
🏷️ 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.
🎒 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.
🔓 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.
