Maximizing Space: Tips for Stackable Plastic Moving Crates

Updated: Mar 30

In a world where every square inch counts, maximizing space during a move is essential. With our uniform size of 27x17x12 plastic moving crates, discover valuable tips for optimizing space efficiency. In this blog post, we'll explore techniques for making the most of stackable plastic moving crates, ensuring a smooth and space-saving relocation.

  1. Choose Stackable Designs: Our uniform size of plastic moving crates is specifically designed to fit securely on top of each other, allowing you to build stable and space-saving stacks.

  2. Utilize Vertical Space: Take advantage of vertical space by stacking plastic crates from floor to ceiling in your moving truck or storage unit. This efficient use of space will help you fit more items in a smaller footprint.

  3. Start with the Heaviest Items: Begin stacking your plastic crates by placing the heaviest items at the bottom. This will provide a stable foundation for your stack and prevent it from toppling over during transit.

  4. Distribute Weight Evenly: Distribute the weight evenly across each stack of plastic crates to maintain stability. Our crates are sturdy enough to support heavy loads, ensuring your belongings remain secure during transportation.

  5. Use Interlocking Lids: Our plastic crates come with interlocking lids, helping to secure the crates together and prevent them from shifting during transit. This added security ensures that your stacks remain stable throughout the move.

  6. Secure Stacks with Straps or Bungee Cords: For extra peace of mind, consider securing your stacks of plastic crates with straps or bungee cords. This additional measure will help hold the crates together and prevent them from shifting or sliding during transportation.

  7. Label Each Stack: Clearly label each stack of plastic crates with its contents and destination room. This will make it easier to locate specific items when unpacking and ensure that everything ends up in the right place in your new home.

  8. Maximize Truck Space: Arrange your stacks of plastic crates strategically in the moving truck to make the most of the available space. Place heavier stacks at the bottom and lighter stacks on top to maintain balance and stability.

  9. Plan Ahead: Plan your stacking strategy before you start loading the moving truck or storage unit. By thinking ahead and organizing your stacks strategically, you can maximize space and minimize wasted room.
