House Removals Preston
Careful local and long-distance house removals from a family-run team.
Cardboard boxes have been used for house moves for years, but they are not always the most efficient option. They need building, taping, sealing, stacking and eventually disposing of.
At Hampson & Mealey, we use reusable lidded plastic crates to make packing faster, cleaner and more organised.
Plastic crates arrive ready to use. There is no need to build boxes, fold flaps or apply tape. The lids close securely and the crates stack neatly, which makes loading, transport and storage more efficient.
Because the crates are ready-made, packing can be significantly quicker than using cardboard boxes. Customers do not waste time building boxes or dealing with tape.
Rigid crates offer better protection than weak or damaged cardboard boxes. They are particularly useful for household contents, kitchen items, office items and belongings that need to be stacked safely.
Reusable crates are also more environmentally sensible than buying large quantities of cardboard that may only be used once.
Our crate system is one reason our team can typically pack many standard homes in a single working day. If you want a faster, more organised move, ask Hampson & Mealey about packing crates and professional packing services.
