Impeccable in every way. PS If you need to move to Orange County or LA , A Smart Move are distributors for OC Rent A Moving Box: boxes are dropped off in San Diego and picked up at your LA/OC destination. read more

Fantastic experience, so easy to schedule and pay online. German delivered and picked up the bins at the times I scheduled online, he sent texts to confirm before and gave a 30 min arrival warning. When our movers arrived to start the move they were pleased to see the bins stacked and ready to go, they like working with them because they are easy to stack and load in the truck. I'd absolutely recommend A Smart Move anyone moving - rent the bins and wardrobes instead of buying cardboard boxes, it was so nice not to have to make them or break them down. We used way more bins than I thought we would in the kitchen FYI you may want to order a few more just for that. Thank you for making a stressful process easier! read more

Can I give a 10 star review? A Smart Move is the best company to help you move. The process was seamless and they communicated well to make sure all of my needs were addressed. We chose to have them pack our belongings. BEST MOVE EVER! Lindsay and her team are professional packers that pay attention to the details. They brought all of the packing supplies and the bins needed for my move and efficiently packed the whole house. Breakables are well wrapped/protected. All of the bins are zip tied to ensure they are not opened either accidentally or intentionally. The bins are also clearly labeled where they cam from. They made the packing process as painless and stress free as possible. Their service is worth every dollar spent. read more

From start to finish this company took care of us. Everyone was friendly and professionaL. called on a Saturday and they delivered 50 bins the next day! We had to pack a 1900 sq ft home with 4 bedrooms. We even purchased wrapping paper and the insurance coverage that takes care of any broken bin; we still paid under $180. They gave us zip lock ties as well as sticker tags for bin identification. I will NEVER use cardboard boxes to move again! I even convinced my in-law to use this company for their move! It's so nice to not worry about what to do with the aftermath of cardboard boxes everywhere. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!! read more

Isn't it nice when the eco-friendly choice is also the easiest one? Our move with A Smart Move was great. Super smooth experience for ordering, delivery, and pickup. They'll text you all the details. Our movers loved the boxes! I just should have rented more, because we had to supplement with some cardboard, and taping those together and breaking them back down was annoying after the ease of the plastic crates. They even give you special removable labels to use, and can provide newsprint and bubble wrap upon request. A nice bonus is that having a date for the boxes to be picked up meant that we were motivated to unpack in record time! read more

A Smart Move makes packing and moving clean, neat and easy. No more cardboard boxes to assemble and disassemble and no packing tape. They brought 25 plastic crates to my house. I pack up my stuff in the crates which made the job of the movers easier. Every crate is the same size and stackable and durable. 2 weeks later they swung by the house and picked up the crates. Very earth friendly! I definitely recommend A Smart Move to anyone who is planning a move and has a lot of packing to do. read more

Moving with Smart Move boxes worked out very well for me! Lindsay and German were so kind and helpful! Even after changing my moving dates, they accommodated me! I would highly recommend them! The boxs are really great! I would use them again! read more

Why: Moving sucks. This service makes it suck exactly 30% less. I'll prove it. Think about cardboard boxes. You've got to find/buy them, bring them home, assemble them, close them, open them, break them down, and dispose of them. And, who likes handling packing tape? How it works: This company drops off a load of sturdy res-usable plastic boxes before your move, and then picks them up after your move from your new house. You choose how many and how long you need them for. The boxes close easily, have handles to help you carry them and stack perfectly. The company also loans you a special dolly to wheel around a stack securely. My experience: I have used them for two moves now and they provide excellent service. Lindsay and Martine were fun, friendly and reliable. And when I asked, they even provided great tips to make my move easier (like using color coded post its to label each box according to what room it goes in). read more

Just finished our move with Smart Move. They were amazing from pre-move to the completion of our move. Their customer service is top-notch - friendly and incredibly prompt. We were on our way to buy more boxes for our mom's move when I discovered A Smart Move on Yelp. We decided to order on line and within an hour boxes were delivered to our door. Just finished the move, and our boxes were immediately picked up by a professional and friendly team. Cannot recommend this company highly enough. Thank you for making a stressful project easy! read more

I don't know if there are any reviews under 5 stars here on Yelp for A Smart Move, but if there are, those people are absolutely wrong and are probably a keyboard warrior trolling the internet. This system is the easiest to schedule, receive, pack, move, and return. There really is no comparison for durability of their containers. It rained the day of our move, and can't imagine how cardboard would have fared. The movers loved these boxes because they modulate together and are quick to handle and load. I loved these boxes because I paid the movers by the hour!! Lindsay is more than accommodating, and their pricing is so efficient. I'd give a 6-star rating if I could. Stop wasting your time with anything else and call them. read more

Lindsey and team packed us up for our move and it made life easier on the other end. When we needed coffee we knew where it was because of her detailed notes. We will use her again! read more

Third time I've used this service. These bins transform packing. Easily scheduled delivery and the pick-up was just as simple. I'll use them again. read more

A smart move is a simple and easy way to move. They drop off the recyclable bins and pick them up at your new address. The staff is incredibly friendly and work with your schedule. I highly recommend using them for any move as my items have not been damaged with using the sturdy and durable containers. I love that they also have the clothing wardrobe or is it made packing my closet simple and easy to pack and unpack. read more

This is the 3rd time we've enlisted the help of A Smart Move and once again we have received excellent customer service! The plastic moving boxes are so much better than cardboard. We count on A Smart Move to provide delivery and pick-up on-time and pristinely clean boxes -- of course that is exactly what we experienced. THANK YOU to Lindsay and her team for a fantastic job once again! read more

Had such a great experience with A Smart Move! I moved my two bedroom apartment (myself and two kids) with 2 weeks and 35 boxes. I had the perfect amount of boxes necessary, and it was surprising just how much time and hassle you save from not assembling boxes. Not one glass, vase, or picture frame was broken in the move thanks to the sturdy boxes, so that's a win in and of itself! I think unpacking is the best part though. The fact that you have to unpack by a certain time so they can pick up the boxes is HUGE. I have gotten settled after this move faster than ever before. Everyone at the company was great, polite, flexible with drop-off/pick-up times, and quick to respond. My only suggestion would be to include more zip-ties next time, since I had to go buy additional. read more

I loved everything about my experience with A Smart Move! Their products are top notch and, because they are reusable, are much better in terms on environmental impact than cardboard boxes. Our 3bd move only had a handful of boxes and the wrapping paper as waste! All the prices are available upfront online and the order was placed in minutes. The boxes are normally rented for a week but I wanted them out of the garage sooner so I added a note asking if that was possible. Lindsay, the owner, got back to me within 30 min, confirming the order and agreeing to the early pick-up time. Boxes were dropped off and picked up at our home at the established times. All this for a very reasonable price. This service is awesome and you will not regret choosing them! read more

If I would have realized how easy it was to use these plastic boxes, I would have done my whole move using them. I bought traditional cardboard boxes to begin with and then I found A Smart Move when I needed to buy more boxes. They stack nicely on top of each other, no tape is necessary as they have interlocking tops and I didn't have one broken item in any of the rented boxes. I was amazed at how easy it was to rent them and then extend the rental (which I had to do twice) Lindsay was AWESOME! Trust me, save yourself the hassle of buying all of the moving supplies and rent these boxes, they will save you time & money. Sincerely, Mary J read more

Moved a second time, used A Smart Move again, still a wonderful experience. Love working with them and will continue to use them for every move and recommend to all our friends. read more

We had a great experience with "A Smart Move" and I would definitely recommend using them. This is an eco-friendly alternative to cardboard boxes and an awesome concept. The totes are durable and easy to pack and easy to move. After emptying the bins, they were super easy to stack. The totes were delivered and picked up as planned and Lindsay was a pleasure to work with. A++ service. thank you! read more

Love these boxes!! This is our second move using A Smart Move boxes! Forget the environmental savings, which are absolutely fantastic. These make packing & moving so much easier & more efficient. Moving companies love them...they make things so much faster. They are so sturdy, protect everything perfectly. Lindsay is so helpful & flexible. When we realized we were going to run out of boxes on the morning of our move, she came within an hour to bring more! She even gave us a few extra days to unpack. Moving sucks, but these boxes make it the best it can be. I wish I could say we weren't planning to move again, but I can say, we won't move with out these boxes! read more

Depends on your circumstances - you can do it cheaper with boxes and tape, but it is much more convenient to use A Smart Move. I needed 75 boxes for my 2 bedroom place (including a garage), but we have lots of stuff. Each box does not hold a great deal, but easy to move around, close, and stack. Great customer service. read more

I used moving tubs through A Smart Move for the first time a couple of weeks ago and I must say that I will never go back to moving boxes and tape again. The tubs were so much sturdier than a box. I love knowing that they were cleaned and sanitized prior to my use. The dollies with the wheels on the end and the universal shape made stacking and moving them around so much easier than boxes. I will definitely be using A Smart Move in the future. The staff was super friendly and drop off and pick up was so easy. read more

Such a great service! Loved the eco concept to the reusable boxes, but they were such a practical benefit too. They are so much easier. Nothing to put together or break down. Huge time saver. Didn't have to go to Home Depot for moving supplies. Everything was delivered and picked up. Also forced us to unpack and settle quickly. Would most definitely recommend this to anyone. read more

Can't say enough good things about the wonderfull team that moved me. They took extream care with my possessions as if they were their own. Hard working and friendly. Showed up on time and communicated beforehand so they could be prepaired for my move. Highly recomend this company! read more

We had a terrific experience with A Smart Move during our recent local move. We'd never heard of renting boxes before, but it sounded like a brilliant idea that would save us time, money, hassle - and a lot of trees. We spoke directly with Lindsay to set everything up, and she was knowledgeable and helpful. She advised us on the different options for the rental and pick up. We included packing paper with our rental, as well. On the delivery date, we received our boxes, zip ties, and packing paper. The boxes are fairly large, sturdy and easy to stack once packed. We labeled our boxes with pieces of write-on tape. Soon, we discovered we needed additional boxes! We called, not expecting someone to answer, but Lindsay did! She was accommodating and delivered additional boxes the next day for us. Pick up was hassle-free; we left the boxes outside, left for work, and the delivery driver picked up all boxes. The only challenges were that the boxes themselves were fairly heavy, and it did end up being a little challenging to carry them downstairs after we had moved in. Once the boxes are packed, they definitely have some weight to them. And when they are empty and stacked, they are also pretty heavy. We could only carry 2-3 boxes downstairs at a time. On the plus side, the heaviness meant they were really sturdy and completely protected our belongings - just know they aren't light and be prepared for some work when you're actually unpacking. Overall, we are very happy with the entire experience with A Smart Move. We would definitely use this service again! read more

After using similar containers in the past thru work, I was thrilled to find these crates for private use. They stack nicely, making fitting them in the moving truck simple (and not a game of Tetris). There is also the added bonus that you have to return the crates, forcing you to unload upon arriving (this way you wont leave your stuff in boxes for the next year). read more

What an amazing concept - rent sturdy, clean reusable boxes for your move, have them hand delivered and picked up, done and done! Sure helps take out a lot of the stress of packing and moving...and in a eco-friendly, sustainable way. Lindsay was very clear, responsive and friendly from beginning to end, and everything went smoothly. Wonderful service! read more

As I was begrudgingly searching Craigslist for moving boxes, I happened upon the listing for a smart move. This is the best thing ever for moving. Everything was easy. Just tell them when you want the boxes....I got updates the morning of with exact ETA.... The bins hold a ton of stuff and are really sturdy. All of my bins were super clean too. One week rentals are a super great price IMO. It's such an easy thing definitely try it for your next move. read more

What a great service and environmentally conscious way to move. I used them on my move and will recommend to everyone I know. The plastic totes are super easy to pack and use and because everything was labeled, the movers knew exactly where to put everything. Not one thing got broken and I was also pleased to see that the paper that we used for wrapping fragile items was also reused. We flattened it back out when we were finished and sent it back along with the totes so it could be reused again. I think it realistically could get between 6-10 uses, which is phenomenal. I only had to use around 10 cardboard boxes for the items that I needed to store and not unpack right away. I believe our move used around 200 totes. They come in 2 sizes so you can organize heavier things in the smaller ones so they aren't too heavy. Another very cool thing about this service is they deliver the boxes to your door along with the paper and they come pick them up when the move is over. One thing to note is the timing of the rental boxes. I believe that you get them for a week but then you have to give them back so you'll need to prepare yourself for that. They might offer a longer rental period for more money but, thankfully, I used silver linings transitions to help me unpack and we were finished quickly. This is a great service and a great company. read more

Delighted to have found A Smart Move! Lindsay is a dream to work with, and I couldn't be more content to have transitioned to reusable boxes. Highly recommended. read more

I reached out to several other companies that offer reusable moving boxes and A Smart Move was by far the best! My previous residence was within their service area, but my new residence was not - Lindsay was able to work with me to have the boxes dropped off and picked up in their service area and saved me $$. I also got my delivery of boxes several days earlier than requested at no extra charge which was GREAT. When I asked the delivery driver if I was getting the boxes early because they just picked them up from another customer and the drop would be convenient he let me know that they don't do that - They take the boxes back from the previous customer and completely clean them before delivering to a new customer! They also provide labels for the boxes and zip ties to close the boxes at no additional charge. When it came time for them to pick up the boxes, I neglected to bring one box back on the date of pick up. I thought for sure I was going to get hit with a late or lost box charge but again Lindsay was very helpful and she scheduled another pick up later that week at no extra charge. Definitely recommend this company to anyone looking to move! read more

This company is amazing! Lindsay and her staff were so nice, professional and easy to work with. It made our move SO much easier. Their drop-off and pick-up service is great and the best part is not having to assemble or break-down cardboard boxes. Love that the boxes are reusable and eco-friendly. We got 50 boxes to move a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment plus garage, but definitely should have gotten a few more since we have a lot of stuff. We would never go back to dealing with cardboard boxes and packing tape! read more

Hadn't heard of renting boxes before, but my daughter recommended them to us after having used them for a move. We found them to be really helpful. They drop the boxes off at one location, and pick them up at the new location. We rented 25 boxes, which was just enough for packing a 2 bedroom apartment. The movers we used thought they were a great idea, and after we labeled the boxes with labels provided by A Smart Move, they were very easy to move and unpack. It was so nice not to have to buy and dispose of cardboard boxes. A positive experience, with excellent customer service! read more

Such an amazing service! Lindsay was a pleasure to work with, and was very responsive. The boxes were delivered on time by two very polite, professional individuals. They came clean, were a breeze to pack and stack, and helped to alleviate a lot of moving stress. I would recommend these to any one moving and will definitely be using A Smart Move again! read more

I've used A Smart Move two times now, and it is, by far, the easiest way to move. Super convenient, they drop the boxes directly to your move out location and come pick them up from the new location. No having to tape up cardboard boxes, etc. they stack really well and my move was very organized as a result. read more

Why didn't we know about this before for our other terrible moves? This was by far the easiest and most comfortable move of the 6 plus we have had in the past. Definitely the only way to go. The time saved using these bins more then made up for the slightly higher cost over cartons and it was so much cleaner and organized. We highly recommend. Lindsay was great and provided great support. read more

This was a great service. The clean and sturdy boxes were delivered when requested and picked up at the requested time. They really made moving just a little bit easier which is a big deal since moving can be exhausting. The eco friendly aspect is pretty nice and not having to store or recycle a ton of cardboard boxes is great. The pickup date kind of motivated us to unpack quicker rather than have boxes everywhere. IMO worth the cost. read more

Great service, solid product, hassle & waste-free. I originally called for a quote and didn't think I needed nearly as many containers that were offered for a minimum rental (which is 25 containers) since I wanted to make multiple trips over course of a few days to pack, unpack & repeat. That would have been a colossal waste of time. I was so grateful in middle of my move, since not only did I need the 25 containers, but possibly could have rented more. I would have been stuck in a bind had I not followed the instructions of owner, Lindsay's direction. She asked about logistics of my move and made practical suggestions on timing (pick-up and drop off days). The containers were surprisingly clean as the company rinses after each use. They drop off the containers at your 'move from' location and pick up 7 days later at your 'move to' location. The gentlemen who dropped off and picked up containers was also nice and communicative in regards to his arrival times. A Smart Move is an excellent service and I will use them again in my next move! read more

Best thing about moving were these boxes hands down! The boxes were clean and sturdy to handle loads of records and books but also clothes and delicate items. Our move went so much faster than expected and it reduced the time our professional movers needed dramatically. The movers gave feedback that the boxes made their jobs easier as well. The boxes are easy to handle and stack perfectly. I highly recommend using A Smart Move for every move. Brilliant business and also good for the environment. Additionally, Lindsey is wonderful and the young man who delivered the boxes was very helpful and professional as well. read more

A smart move is the WAY TO GO! Lindsay is such a joy to work with. We were in a crunch to get moved out of our office for remodeling and Lindsay came to our rescue. Within 30 minutes of inquiring about her services she was at my office for a face to face introduction. Her prices are great, service is absolutely incredible. I don't think I'll buy boxes to move again! A huge thank you to A Smart Move! read more
