Sacramento Packing Supplies: Boxes, Wardrobe, and Crates

A smooth move starts with the right materials. Whether you’re relocating across town or across California, the quality of your packing supplies can make all the difference in protecting your belongings. Cheap or mismatched boxes may save a few dollars upfront but often lead to damage, wasted space, and unnecessary stress on moving day.

At All Star Movers & Storage, we provide professional-grade packing supplies in Sacramento, including durable boxes, wardrobe cartons, custom crates, and more. Our goal is to make every move safer, smarter, and more efficient — starting with the materials you use.

Why Quality Packing Supplies Matter

Many people underestimate how much proper packing materials impact a move. Strong boxes, sturdy tape, and cushioned fillers prevent breakage and make stacking easier. Additionally, using the right box type for each item helps movers load efficiently and protects your belongings during transport.

Here’s why quality materials make a difference:

  • Protection: Reinforced boxes and crates reduce risk of crushing or tearing.

  • Efficiency: Proper sizing keeps items from shifting in transit.

  • Organization: Labeled boxes and color-coded materials simplify unpacking.

  • Peace of mind: Knowing your belongings are secure eliminates stress.

Because All Star Movers & Storage uses the same supplies for our professional packing services, you can trust that every item meets commercial moving standards.

Standard Boxes for Everyday Packing

For most household items, standard moving boxes remain the most versatile and cost-effective option. Our Sacramento warehouse carries a full range of sizes designed for specific purposes:

  • Small boxes (1.5 cu ft): Great for books, tools, or heavy pantry items.

  • Medium boxes (3.0 cu ft): Ideal for kitchenware, small electronics, or shoes.

  • Large boxes (4.5 cu ft): Best for linens, bedding, and lightweight decor.

  • Dish packs: Reinforced double-wall boxes designed for glassware and dishes.

  • Mirror or picture boxes: Adjustable panels that protect artwork and frames.

Because our boxes stack evenly, movers can load and unload them quickly while maximizing space inside your truck or storage vault.

Wardrobe Boxes for Easy Closet Transfers

Clothing is one of the simplest items to move — but it can wrinkle or get dirty fast without the right packing method. Wardrobe boxes keep your garments clean, upright, and ready to hang the moment you arrive.

Each wardrobe box includes a built-in metal hanging bar for clothes on hangers. This design allows movers to transfer an entire closet directly into the box without folding a single item. It’s perfect for:

  • Suits, dresses, and uniforms that need to stay pressed

  • Seasonal clothing stored long-term or in transit

  • Large closets that require quick relocation

Because wardrobe boxes are tall and sturdy, they also double as temporary hanging space during unpacking — an added convenience many clients appreciate.

Custom Crates for High-Value and Fragile Items

Some items need more than just a box. Custom wooden crates offer maximum protection for delicate, heavy, or irregularly shaped possessions. At All Star Movers & Storage, we design and build crates tailored to your specific items, ensuring perfect fit and stability.

Our Sacramento crating services are ideal for:

  • Fine art and sculptures

  • Antiques and collectibles

  • Glass tabletops and mirrors

  • Large electronics or musical instruments

  • Industrial equipment or trade show materials

We measure, construct, and line each crate with cushioning materials to absorb impact during transport. Because our crates are reusable and ISPM-15 compliant, they also meet international shipping and storage standards.

Packing Materials That Make a Difference

In addition to boxes and crates, our Sacramento facility stocks every packing accessory you might need, including:

  • Bubble wrap and packing paper for cushioning delicate items

  • Furniture pads and shrink wrap to prevent scratches

  • Moving blankets for larger items like dressers and pianos

  • Heavy-duty packing tape and dispensers for quick sealing

  • Mattress and sofa covers for dust and moisture protection

  • Labeling kits to keep every room organized

Because we use these same materials during our professional packing services, you know they’ve been tested for quality and reliability.

How to Choose the Right Supplies for Your Move

Every move is different, but these quick guidelines can help you select the right mix of materials:

  • Local moves: Focus on standard boxes, tape, and furniture protection.

  • Long-distance or storage moves: Add crates and heavy-duty wrapping for long-term safety.

  • Apartment moves: Use wardrobe boxes and smaller boxes for easier lifting.

  • Office relocations: Consider file boxes and tech-safe packing for electronics.

If you’re unsure what to order, our Sacramento moving coordinators can estimate how many boxes, rolls, or crates you’ll need based on your home size and inventory.
