Moving
Medium packing boxes are the backbone of any house move. The 48 × 30 × 34 cm size is specifically chosen so that a box full of books – the densest household item – stays under a comfortable lifting weight. Pack heavy items in medium boxes, bulky-light items in large boxes. You will need roughly twice as many medium boxes as large boxes for a typical move.
Tip: Always seal the base with two strips of tape before filling. Heavy items at the bottom, lighter items on top.
Storage
Medium storage boxes are ideal for self-storage and spare-room storage because their compact footprint makes them easy to organise, label, and retrieve without disturbing the whole stack. Many customers use medium boxes for seasonal storage – boxing winter clothing in April or storing holiday décor after the festive season.
Tip: Drop a silica gel sachet into each sealed box going into storage. Silica gel absorbs trapped moisture that builds up inside sealed boxes, protecting clothing, fabric, and paper from mould, musty odours, and humidity damage.
Shipping
At 48 × 30 × 34 cm, the medium carton box ships efficiently with most courier services and fits standard cargo shelving. It is the preferred size for sending goods upcountry – heavy enough to be worth the trip, light enough to be handled by one person at each end.
