How Many Boxes Do I Need for a Move?

A useful starting point for estimating box quantities by property size and how much you own.

A useful starting point for estimating box quantities by property size and how much you own. This guide is intended as practical general information; the details of every London move depend on the property, access and circumstances.

Start with a range

The number of boxes varies with lifestyle, storage and how much you own. A compact flat can need far fewer boxes than a full family house.

Use consistent sizes

A mix of medium and smaller boxes is usually easier to carry and stack than relying on very large boxes.

Do not overfill

Keep boxes manageable, especially for books and dense items. Label each box by room and priority.
