Rent moving boxes: A good alternative?

Weighed: Or better to buy moving box?

What do I need other than moving boxes?
Let’s turn to the other moving material Berlin that you need for your change of location. Here is a list of the main materials available for purchase specifically for the move:
- Bubble wrap
- Tissue paper
- Stretch film
- Cardboard inserts
- Foam
- Cushioning chips and shavings
The padding materials are joined by adhesive tape and felt-tip pen , for taping, sticking together and labeling. It’s also a good idea to have a few ziplock bags handy to safely store small items, such as closet fittings.
Looked up: What pads do I have in the house?
Now direct your gaze to the existing household material: an amazing amount can be used to pad moving boxes or gently separate furniture elements. For example, you can take your towels, your bed linen, seat cushions for chairs, the inserts of the garden furniture and various blankets and boxes. Some movers put their glasses in clean socks, others use kitchen towels or newspaper to fill the gaps in boxes.
This kind of creative use saves money on upholstery material and protects the environment. After a wash, everything is clean again and can be used for its intended purpose.
