Say goodbye to cardboard.

Buying boxes, taping them up, then binning the lot. It all adds up. Our crates just show up, do the job, and go.

Think green. Spend less. Move easy.

The bits people ask about.

How many crates will I need?

Packs are sized by home: 1 or 2-bedroom is 45 crates, 3-bedroom is 60, 4-bedroom is 75 and 5-bedroom is 90. Not sure? Send us your list of items and we'll size it for you. You can always add more crates if you need to.

How much does it cost?

Straight pricing by home size, no hidden fees, with delivery and pick-up across the Gold Coast included. 1 or 2-bedroom is $250 a week, 3-bedroom $300, 4-bedroom $350 and 5-bedroom $400.

How does delivery and pick-up work?

It's very simple. We deliver the crates to your door on your chosen day. Once you've moved in and finished unpacking, our team comes and collects the empty crates from your new place.

What comes in the pack?

Sanitised crates, trolleys, sticker labels and packing paper. Everything you need, nothing to buy separately.

What if I need them longer?

No stress. Pick a longer hire when you book, or just let us know and we'll extend your hire at a small weekly rate.

Which areas do you deliver to?

Right across the Gold Coast and Northern Rivers, from Coombabah down to Kingscliff. If you're outside our service area we can still deliver, with an additional travel fee. Just tell us your suburb and we'll send you a quote in minutes.

Are they big enough for my stuff?

Each crate holds about the same as a large moving box, 65 litres, and they stack perfectly on top of each other so you fit more in the truck. One tip: don't pack them too heavy, so they stay easy to lift without hurting your back.

Do the crates have lids, and can I lock them?

Absolutely. The crates have integrated lids that lock in place when stacked. For extra security you can thread a zip tie through the handles to seal them up.

Can removalists stack them safely in the truck?

Yes. They're heavy duty and waterproof, and they were designed with a lock-in system so they stack higher and tighter, instead of the wobbly, crushable pile you get with cardboard. We work with local removalists across the Gold Coast and their feedback has been excellent, because the crates make the move faster.

Isn't this more expensive than cardboard boxes?

Cardboard looks cheaper until you add it up: boxes, tape, paper, the drive to buy them, the time to assemble and tape them, then the tip run at the end. Our crates arrive assembled and leave with us. They also make packing around 30% faster, which means a shorter removalist bill, so you end up ahead.

How far in advance should I book?

A week or two before your moving date is ideal, so you have plenty of time to pack properly, protect your things and not rush it.

Do you deliver on weekends?

Yes, we deliver on Saturdays too. Sunday is the only day we're closed, our one day off.

Do I need to be home for delivery and pick-up?

Not necessarily. We can leave the crates in a safe spot. Just let our team know beforehand so we agree on somewhere that works for the drop-off and the collection.

What if my move date changes?

Happens all the time. Tell us as soon as you know and we'll shift your delivery or pick-up at no charge, subject to availability.

When and how do I pay?

Once you've completed the form you'll get a confirmation email with a secure Stripe payment link. Pay by card to lock in your booking.

Do I need to pay the full amount to secure my booking?

Yes. We take payment upfront so we can confirm your booking.

Can I cancel my booking?

Yes. Cancel more than 48 hours before your delivery date and you get a 100% refund. Cancel within 48 hours of your delivery date and you get 50% back.

What's your money-back guarantee?

On time, or your money back. We deliver and collect within the window we agree with you. If we miss that window by more than 24 to 48 hours, you get a full 100% refund. Your payment is held securely through Stripe the whole time.

What if a crate gets damaged or goes missing?

They're heavy duty and hard to damage in a normal move. If something does break or go missing, just tell us and we'll sort it out. No dramas, and no surprise fees.

Do I need to clean them before pick-up?

A quick wipe is appreciated, so you hand them back the way you got them. Either way, we sanitise every crate before it goes to the next customer, so they always arrive spotless.
