Frequently Asked Questions
Are used boxes really strong enough for shipping?
Yes. Our Grade-A used boxes are structurally sound and have been inspected for integrity. Corrugated boxes are designed to be used multiple times — most boxes have plenty of life left after their first shipment. We only sell boxes that meet quality standards for safe shipping.
What areas do you serve?
We serve the entire DFW metroplex with our own delivery fleet, covering Arlington, Dallas, Fort Worth, Grand Prairie, Irving, Mansfield, Midlothian, Waxahachie, and surrounding areas. For businesses outside our delivery radius, we arrange LTL and full truckload freight shipping.
Is there a minimum order?
No minimum order required. We sell single boxes all the way up to full truckloads. Whether you need 10 boxes for a move or 10,000 for your warehouse, we are happy to help.
How does the buy-back program work?
If you have surplus boxes, gaylords, or pallets, we will buy them from you. Contact us for a quote, and we will either pick them up from your location or you can drop them off at our facility. We pay fair market rates based on size, condition, and quantity.
Do you offer recurring delivery schedules?
Yes. Many of our business customers set up weekly or bi-weekly delivery schedules. We can also combine deliveries with buy-back pickups to maximize efficiency. Contact us to set up a recurring route.
Can you help me figure out what size boxes I need?
Absolutely. Our team provides free packaging consultations where we help you determine the right box sizes for your products, optimize your packaging for shipping costs, and identify opportunities to save money. Call us or schedule a consultation online.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept cash, checks, all major credit cards, and net terms for qualified business accounts. For buy-back payments, we pay by check or direct deposit.
How quickly can I get my order?
Most in-stock orders can be picked up same-day or delivered next business day within our Zone 1 service area. Zone 2 deliveries are typically next-day. For large or custom orders, turnaround is usually 1-3 business days.
