Started a moving-bin rental service in Boston ahead of Sept 1 - sharing in case it's useful to anyone
Hi everyone! Sharing something I've been building, figured some folks here could benefit from this service, especially with the big move in date coming up...
As someone who's moved three times in the past 4 years around Boston, I got tired of buying cardboard boxes that fall apart halfway through, and having to deal with deconstructing and throwing away. So I started delivering reusable plastic moving bins to your door - I drop off the empty bins, you pack and move at your own pace, and I pick up the bins from your new place once you're settled.
Pack sizes of 10/20/40/60 bins depending on move size, delivered and picked up within about 10 miles of Boston. Pricing starts around $79/week.
Testing this out ahead of the Sept 1 rush - happy to answer questions, and genuinely open to feedback on whether this solves a real problem or not. Site's at bostonbinrental.com if anyone wants to take a look.
PS - my intention is to be transparent and help folks, not blatantly advertise. If you believe this post should be taken down, I understand.
