When people are moving they generally would enjoy some help, so you can always shop around for movers . They can be very helpful since that is their job and they are trained. It also takes some stress off the customer as well, you will have  one less thing to worry about when you know that you have good help.

When people are moving they want sturdy, well made moving boxes . Most storage facilities do sell an extensive storage and moving supplies. It is convienient for the mover who has just rented a storage unit to get boxes and supplies at the store, its killing two birds with one stone per say. Movers want everything to be easy and logical so if they come in to fill out their paperwork or come in to drop things off in their units they could get all the supplies that they need right there.
