What's Included in Our Moving Supplies

- Small moving boxes for heavy items like books, canned goods, tools, and small appliances. The compact size keeps weight manageable so boxes stay liftable and intact.
- Medium moving boxes for the bulk of household goods: kitchenware, toys, decor, shoes, and electronics accessories. The most versatile size in any move.
- Large moving boxes for light but bulky items like bedding, pillows, lampshades, and lightweight decor. Never pack heavy items in large boxes.
- Extra large moving boxes for comforters, blankets, cushions, and bulky lightweight goods that need maximum volume without crushing.
- Wardrobe boxes with hanging bars so clothes move straight from closet to box to closet. No folding, no wrinkling, no dry cleaning bills after the move.
- Dish packs and cell divider kits for glasses, plates, and stemware. Cellular dividers keep every piece separated so nothing rattles or chips in transit.
- Mirror and picture boxes that telescope to fit framed art, mirrors, and flat screen TVs. Corner protection included for framed pieces.
- Mattress bags and covers in twin through king sizes. They keep mattresses clean and dry during loading, transport, and storage.
- Packing paper in generous bundles. Clean newsprint style paper for wrapping dishes, glassware, and fragile items without ink transfer.
- Bubble wrap in small and large bubble sizes. Essential cushioning for electronics, framed art, and anything that chips or cracks.
- Stretch wrap for bundling items together, protecting upholstery from dirt, and keeping drawers and doors closed during the move.
- Heavy duty packing tape and dispensers that actually hold. Weak tape is one of the most common causes of box failures on moving day.
- Markers and labels for clear box labeling. A labeled box gets unpacked in hours; a mystery box sits in the garage for months.
- Furniture blankets available for purchase or rental to protect wood furniture, appliances, and large items during loading and transport.
Our Moving Supplies Process
- Tell us about your move. Call or request a quote and describe your home size, from a studio apartment to a large family home. If you are moving with us, we already know your inventory from the estimate.
- Get a tailored supply list. We recommend specific box counts and materials based on your home size and what you own. A 2 bedroom apartment needs a very different list than a 4 bedroom house with a garage and home office.
- Choose bundles or individual items. Supply bundles for common home sizes save money over buying piece by piece. If you only need a few extras, buy exactly what you need with no minimums.
- Pickup or delivery. Pick up supplies at our Nashville or Knoxville facility, or have them delivered. Customers moving with us can have supplies dropped off with the truck or ahead of moving day.
- Pack with professional materials. Our boxes are double wall corrugated and rated for real moving weight. Pack heavy items in small boxes, light items in large boxes, and label everything by room.
- Get packing tips from the pros. Every supply order comes with practical guidance: how to pack dishes so they survive, how to protect TVs, and the labeling system our crews use. Ask us anything before you start.
Why Choose Good Time for Moving Supplies
Professional grade materials. Our boxes are the same double wall corrugated boxes our crews use on thousands of moves. They hold their shape when stacked, resist crushing in the truck, and handle real weight. Cheap thin boxes are a false economy that costs more when they fail.
Right sized recommendations. The most common supply mistake is buying all one size, usually too large. We build your list around your actual home: small boxes for heavy things, medium for everyday goods, large for bulky light items, and specialty boxes where they matter.
Bundle pricing that saves money. Prebuilt supply kits for studio, 1 bedroom, 2 bedroom, and larger homes cost less than buying every item separately. You get a complete matched set with nothing missing and nothing wasted.
One stop with your move. When you move with Good Time, supplies integrate with your moving plan. We deliver boxes ahead of packing day, our crew knows exactly what materials you have, and everything arrives coordinated instead of piecemeal.
Honest advice, no upsell. We will tell you when you can reuse what you have and when it is worth buying new. Towels work fine as padding for some things; dish packs are worth every penny for china. You get straight answers from people who pack for a living.
Local pickup in Nashville and Knoxville. No waiting on shipping or hoping the big box store has stock. We also cover moving supplies nashville tn from our Nashville office. Pick up supplies at our local facilities seven days a week, or add delivery to your moving services.
Moving Supplies Cost and Pricing Factors
Moving supplies cost depends on your home size, how much you are packing yourself, and which specialty materials you need. A studio apartment supply kit costs far less than a full 4 bedroom home kit with wardrobe boxes, dish packs, and mattress covers. Individual box prices rise with size and specialty features: a small box costs less than a wardrobe box with a hanging bar, and dish packs with cell dividers cost more than standard boxes of similar size.
Bundles are the best value for full home packing, typically saving 10 to 20 percent over individual prices. Buying supplies as part of a Good Time move can be even more economical, since delivery is coordinated and our crew can advise on exact quantities from your inventory. The biggest cost driver is simply volume: more rooms and more belongings mean more boxes, paper, and tape.
What should you not skimp on? Tape and specialty protection. Quality tape costs little more than weak tape and prevents the most common box failures. Dish packs, mirror boxes, and mattress bags protect the items most likely to be damaged, making them the highest value purchases in any supply order.

Moving Supplies FAQs
How many moving boxes do I need?
It depends on your home size and how much you own. As a rough guide, a studio needs 15 to 25 boxes, a 1 bedroom needs 25 to 40, a 2 bedroom needs 40 to 60, and a 3 bedroom home needs 60 to 90 or more. Homes with garages, basements, or home offices need extra. Call us with your home size and we will build you an accurate list so you buy once.
How much do moving boxes cost?
Individual box prices vary by size and type, with small standard boxes the most affordable and specialty boxes like wardrobes and dish packs costing more. Supply bundles for full homes offer the best per box value. Because prices shift with material costs, call (615) 626-8317 for current pricing. Buying the right boxes once is far cheaper than replacing damaged belongings.
Where to buy moving boxes?
You can buy moving boxes at home improvement stores, office supply stores, and online, but quality varies widely. Buying from a moving company like Good Time means professional grade double wall boxes matched to your move, expert quantity advice, and local pickup in Nashville or Knoxville with no shipping wait. Our boxes are the same ones our crews trust daily.
How many boxes do I need for a 2 bedroom apartment?
A typical 2 bedroom apartment needs 40 to 60 boxes: mostly medium boxes, plus small boxes for books and heavy items, large boxes for bedding and bulky light goods, 1 to 2 wardrobe boxes, a dish pack for the kitchen, and a mirror box or two. Add packing paper, bubble wrap, tape, and mattress bags. We will fine tune the list based on your closets, kitchen size, and storage areas.
What moving supplies do I need?
The essentials are boxes in small, medium, and large sizes, packing tape with a dispenser, packing paper, and markers. Most moves also need bubble wrap for fragiles, stretch wrap for furniture, and mattress bags. Kitchens benefit from dish packs with cell dividers, closets from wardrobe boxes, and framed art from mirror boxes. Furniture blankets protect large pieces in the truck.
What size boxes should I use for moving?
Use small boxes for heavy items like books, tools, and canned goods. Medium boxes handle most household goods and are the workhorse size. Large and extra large boxes are only for light bulky items like bedding, pillows, and lampshades. Specialty sizes like wardrobe, dish, and mirror boxes protect specific items far better than standard boxes ever could.
How do I pack a box for moving?
Start with crumpled paper padding on the bottom. Wrap fragile items individually and place heavy items on the bottom, lighter items on top. Fill all empty space with paper so nothing shifts. Do not overfill or underfill. Tape the box shut with two strips across the seam, then label it with the room and a brief contents note. Keep every box under 50 pounds.
Where can I get free moving boxes?
Grocery stores, liquor stores, and bookstores often give away boxes, and online marketplaces list free moving boxes from recent movers. Free boxes work for light durable goods, but inspect them carefully: avoid boxes with food stains, moisture damage, or crushed corners. For dishes, electronics, and anything fragile, professional grade boxes are worth the investment.
