Recently our home was put on the market. In order to get things straightened up for realtor photos and open houses, we’ve been packing some of our “extra” stuff into boxes. I was sent 2 boxes to try out from their “Classic” line, 2 different sizes one green and one blue.
Packaways is a brand new Storage Box that ships and stores in the flat position. When needed, simply press on opposing corners and the bottom “Automatically” folds into place and locks. When not in use, simply press on the bottom and the box folds back down flat for easy, out of the way storage. Ideal for homes, apartments or living quarters where use is intermitent and space is tight. Many applications: Moving; Back To School; Organizing The Kids’ Rooms; Basement or Garage; Seasonal Items, etc. You can color code your things or have the colors match your decor. Proudly made in the U.S.A. from durable corrugated plastic. Great for harsh storage conditions or long-term storage since moisture and humidity won’t effect the integrety of the boxes. Will last hundreds of cycles under normal circumstances. Many, many useful applications. Comes with 2 Wipe Away Panels that allow you to conveniently identify the contents of the box. If you use China Dry Erase Markers, you can simply Wipe Away the previous contents and remark the box. Please go to www.packaways.com for more information.
The boxes came shipped in a flat box and were super easy to fold into a box – it took me literally seconds to do both of them. The other great thing about these boxes is that there is no separate top. With other boxes we’ve been using, you have to create a separate top which can come lose or get lost in all the hustle and bustle of packing up items. The packaways tops fold down and then you can easily fold them into themselves to keep them closed and secure. The plastic is also more secure against moisture than the traditional card board boxes.
The boxes are a bit on the expensive side compared to their cardboard counterparts – but when you think about it – the packaways will last much longer, withstand the elements longer, and you’ll never lose the tops! You can switch out your winter / summer clothes using them, pack to move kids into the dorm, pack for moving or storage, the possibilities are endless and you can continue to reuse these boxes hundreds of times! (plus, with a variety of colors available you can give each member of your family a different color to easily be able to pick out whos boxes belong to who!)
