My office is one of the problem areas in my home. Not only is it in use 12 or more hours a day, it gets loaded down with product, boxes, shipping materials and loads of stuff from other areas of the house. If someone doesn’t know where to put something, it gets thrown in my office until I can find it a home or pack it away for a garage sale or donation. It gets to be a huge project all the time that is mentally challenging! Packing it up is a challenge too because totes are not always a good alternative. Reusable storage boxes are a better alternative for my office space and here is what I found.
Packaways is a brand new Storage Box that ships and stores in the flat position. When you are ready to use it, simply press on the opposite corners and the bottom pops into place and locks. When the Packaways storage box is not in use, just press on the bottom and the box folds back down flat for easy storage. This is exactly what I am looking for my office!
I received 2 different size Packaways to check out for you. They are a corrugated plastic box that is coated for moisture and they are super sturdy! All you have to do is pop the bottom lip into the slot and this box is ready to use. The top will fold down and lock into place too. You can easily reverse the process and store them flat when they are not in use. I am loving this!
The first thing I noticed when I put them together is that they are the same size length wise so that when you are stacking boxes, only the height will be different. This is a safe and organized way to store boxes. Awesome for uniformity!
These boxes are perfect for anytime and anywhere. Packaways has several other packing options too. They offer one additional size of the Storage box along with an open tote, which is totally cool. Then they have an underbed flat box as well. I already have my order in my head for additional boxes and I will be heading over to place another order for these.
I love how sturdy these are. You can literally get hundreds of uses out of them and the prices are super affordable; about as much as you would pay for a plastic tote that takes up space all the time. These can be stored in a tiny spot when they are not in use. They also have 2 spots where you can write the contents of the box on them if you use a China Dry Erase Markers. Just wipe it off and you can re-mark on the label. Nice!
I am going to get a few totes for my home… one for the cars and a few for my office to store product in while it is waiting for review. These products are totally cool and they would be perfect for smaller living spaces, moving, college kids, organizing a basement, attic or the kids stuff. You name it. They also work for storing products in harsh storage conditions or long-term storage since moisture and humidity won’t effect the integrity of the boxes.
If you have some organizing or packing up to do, you need to swing by and see these cool boxes. I really like mine and you will probably enjoy them too. They are an awesome solution to hard plastic totes and such.
