20 Million-Dollar Businesses You've Never Heard Of

I love the green boxes. Last time I moved my roommate spent almost $50 on cardboard boxes. After unpacking we immediately threw them away (with the additional hassel of disassembling them). This is a far better solution.

I hope they become available in my state next time I have to move.

I think the idea is great also. http://frogbox.com/ is a company started here in Vancouver who does the same thing. they also have started franchising it. I have never used them but had a friend looked into using them and said it was too expensive compared to regular boxes. It looks like it cost about $110 for boxes for a two bedroom rental. Guess the convenience and green benefits are the selling factors.

It would also compel you to unload quickly. I've been in my house for 8.5 years, and I've still got boxes in the garage.
