Why Are Bankers Boxes So Expensive?

Document Storage Services in Farmingdale, NY

One of the best ways to store documents for a long period of time is with bankers boxes, but when looking to invest in some bankers boxes you may wonder why the price is so high.

There are a few reasons why bankers boxes are more expensive than regular cardboard boxes:

Easy to Assemble

  • Bankers boxes are very easy to assemble. There is no glue involved with the set up process, which can attract bugs or other furry creatures. Simply fold the box into a square and voila.

Sturdy

  • A bankers box is typically 12 x 10 x 15, with a stacking weight of over 400 lbs. Each box comes with a lid so you do not have to worry about how to cover the box, making it a sturdy foundation for more boxes.

Stackable

  • The heavy-duty frame of a bankers box makes it easy to stack boxes on top of each other. Stackable boxes makes file storage much more convenient and a space saver.

Environmentally Friendly

  • Bankers boxes are made out of a very thick cardboard, making some people wonder if they are harmful for the environment. However, bankers boxes are typically made of at least 65% recycled products. This video from Off Site Data Depot shows the importance of the durability of your storage boxes.

Another option when considering investing in bankers boxes is to hire an off site record storage company. By hiring a service provider, you don’t have to worry about where to physically store the boxes or purchasing them. The off-site provider will bring you the number of boxes you need and take them to their location to store.
