moving box
Packing day essential
A moving box is a cardboard container used for packing belongings when relocating homes or offices.
The term distinguishes these boxes—typically sturdy, uniform in size, and often available from moving companies—from other cardboard boxes: We need to buy more moving boxes before the movers come.
