Useful for everything from moving house to creating space in your loft, choosing the right box size can make storing your belongings much easier. We stock a range of boxes, packing tape and furniture covers at each of our storage facilities across the UK.
Browse our box shop to find the packing supplies you need.
As well as the size, consider how sturdy and reinforced your box is. If you’ve got a lot of heavy items to move, or you’re going to be stacking your belongings in storage, reinforced packing materials will suit you best.

| Extra large | 45 x 45 x 75cm | Furniture accessories, bedding, large household items | £7.50 |

Standard box dimensions are measured in length, width and height (sometimes referred to as the depth). These measurements show the internal dimensions of each box, rather than its full size.
Make sure you pick up the right sizes for your belongings to make the most of your space. If you’re packing fragile items, you’ll need to factor in the space that protective materials like bubble wrap or packing peanuts take up, too.
Our boxes come flat packed, so you can assemble them at the best time for you. Whilst assembling your boxes is a fairly easy job, it’s important to put them together properly to save your belongings from damage.
Whether you need to rent a storage unit for some extra space while you move, or you need to pick up more boxes, we’re here to help. For more advice on packing your possessions safely, have a read of our guide to packing glasses.
