Plastic moving boxes · Houston, TX

Plastic moving boxes for rent in Houston. Delivered, then picked up.

Stop buying cardboard. Bin & Back delivers reusable, lidded plastic moving boxes (we call them bins; you might say totes or crates) anywhere within 30 miles of downtown Houston, free, and comes back for them when your move is done.

Rent vs. buy: the Houston math

A two-bedroom move needs about 40 large cardboard boxes. New, that's $150–$250 at a hardware store before tape, markers, two store trips and a weekend of folding. Free boxes from behind a grocery store cost nothing and come with soft corners and, often, roaches.

Renting 40 plastic moving boxes from us is $169 for a week or $219 for two, delivered and picked up, with two dollies and room labels. Nothing to assemble, nothing to break down, nothing on the curb for bulk trash day. And because uniform bins stack four high on a dolly, hourly movers finish faster, which usually saves more than the rental costs.

What you get

  • 27-gallon heavy-duty plastic moving boxes, about 30" × 20" × 15", one and a half large cardboard boxes each
  • Snap-tight lids that lock into the bin above. Weather-resistant for Houston rain and humidity.
  • Two four-wheel dollies, color-coded room labels, zip ties
  • Delivery to one address, pickup from another, anywhere in our 30-mile zone, seven days a week
  • Every bin pressure-washed and sanitized between customers

Same product, four names

Plastic moving boxes, moving bins, moving totes, moving crates

If you've been searching all four, relax: they're the same rentable lidded plastic container. Retail stores say "tote," office movers say "crate," national brands say "plastic moving box," and Houston customers text us about "bins." We wrote a short glossary if you want the details. What matters is what's included and how long you get them, and on both we're the best deal in Houston: two dollies with every order, your choice of one or two weeks, and free weekend delivery.
