Whether you’re planning a move across the country or across town, you want to work with a moving company that protects your belongings, has experience moving large and fragile items, and does it all for a fair price. For over 20 years, the Cincinnati residents have trusted D & R Movers with all their relocation needs. 

This local moving company specializes in making relocation a worry-free process, starting with a free no-obligation estimate and ending with furniture re-assembly in your new space. Every item in your home is padded and protected to ensure safe transport. In fact, D & R Movers are also experienced piano movers, so there’s no need to coordinate with another service provider to transport your beloved instrument.

Once you’ve settled into your new place, what do you do with all that leftover cardboard? Rather than putting them out for recycling collection, consider keeping some for craft projects, storage, and a variety of household uses:

• Crafting: Cardboard boxes serve a number of arts and crafts purposes, from overspray shields for projects using spray paint to memorable homemade Halloween costumes. Photography enthusiasts can line their boxes with white paper and foil to create light boxes and reflectors. A few strategic cuts can turn a box into a kid-friendly lap desk they can decorate themselves.
• Storage: If you labeled your boxes before you moved, consider reusing them to store and organize items from those rooms so you can find those items again at a glance. If your college student worked with D & R Movers to get to campus, help them maximize storage in their dorm or apartment by storing extra school supplies, non-perishable food, and out-of-season clothing in their moving boxes. Keeping those boxes will also come in handy when it’s time to move out at the end of the school year.
• Household Uses: Even if some of your boxes are a little worse for wear, they are still useful. Cardboard sheets can be used in the garage to catch auto fluid leaks or as a temporary fix for a leaky roof when wrapped in plastic. Use medium-sized boxes to create basic emergency kits for your home and car—consult this list from the Red Cross to see what should go into your kit. Cardboard is also great for gardens, from weed blocking to composting, container planting to seed starting.
