Take the guesswork out of getting prepared for your move by figuring out how many boxes you’ll need ahead of time.
Real estate site Zillow offers a handy moving box estimator, which allows you to input the number of rooms and square footage in your house to come up with hard numbers for how many boxes to stock up on.
We’ve done some of the leg-work for you by charting how many you’ll probably need for typical house sizes. The data below is based on square foot estimates from 1,000 to 2,500, and account for two adults. Input your own data into the estimator to get a more specific estimate for your situation.
