The moving process might be a stressful one, but it doesn\u2019t have to be a destructive one! Making small changes can lead to a big impact on the environment! Here are our best tips for being environmentally-friendly during your next move.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Rent Plastic Boxes to Save on Cardboard Waste
    \nSolutions like\u00a0RentAGreenBox.com<\/a>\u00a0allow you to rent plastic crates for packing to avoid having to buy cardboard boxes that you\u2019re just going to throw away later anyway.<\/li>\n
  2. Donate More Than You Throw Away
    \nRather than throwing away an old couch, clothing or supplies, consider donating it to Goodwill or listing it on the free section of Craigslist. Or post on Facebook to see if any friends or family are interested in taking your old belongings off your hands.<\/li>\n
  3. Wrap Fragile Items in Clothing Rather Than Bubble Wrap
    \nRather than using paper or bubble wrap, there are plenty of things you already own that you can use to secure fragile objects. Consider using t-shirts, blankets, towels, egg cartons, or old newspapers in lieu of packing peanuts or other one-time-use packing materials.<\/li>\n
  4. Upcycle or Recycle Cardboard Boxes
    \nWe found a number of creative ways to reuse cardboard boxes. Read them\u00a0    here<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  5. Find the Right Size Moving Container
    \nWhether you\u2019re renting a truck or a UNIT storage pod, be sure you\u2019re getting the right size to cut down on multiple trips or wasting gas on a vehicle that\u2019s bigger than what you actually need.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
