Moving can waste a lot of resources: money, time, and boxes. Over 20% of the American population moves each year. That’s a lot of boxes being jam-packed into landfills.
Avoid the boxes and the haste of finding them by renting containers from rentagreenbox.com. Yes, I said rent. Spencer Brown, the owner and creator, came up with this great idea: the Recopack. Customer’s can rent plastic containers made from recycled trash found at landfills. Make a call, and Rent A Green Box will drop off your Recopacks and then pick them up 2 weeks later. With these zero-waste plastic containers, they have better durability then cardboard. No more having to deal with crushed boxes. This company has thought of it all; even the trucks used for deliveries is fueled from wasted vegetable oil. As of now, they service Orange County, Los Angeles County, and selected areas of San Diego County.
So skip the hustle of trying to find cardboard boxes, save the landfills from being filled up with wasted material, and Rent A Green Box.
great article…
What a great idea. Instead of cardboard boxes, people can rent plastic boxes. Definitely more resourceful than buying brand new cardboard boxes for every move, which most people only use once or twice and then toss.
