The totes

Built like job site boxes, because they are

These are heavy duty 27 gallon contractor grade totes: rigid black bodies, bright yellow snap on lids, and straight walls that stack clean in a truck, a garage, or a hallway without leaning.

  • 27 gallons each: roughly the capacity of two medium cardboard boxes
  • Snap on lids: no tape, no tools, no assembly
  • Sanitized between rentals: every tote arrives clean
  • Stack 4 to 5 high: loaded, without crushing
Black rolling dolly sized for Totes4U moving totes

Add the dolly. A rolling base sized to the totes, so a stack glides down the hallway instead of getting carried one at a time.

Why totes

Totes beat boxes. It's not close.

Cardboard is a one move product. Our totes are built to move families again and again.

With Totes4U

  • Crush proof: rigid plastic protects everything inside
  • Stackable: straight walls, secure lids, no collapsing
  • Weather resistant: rain on moving day isn't a disaster
  • Zero waste: we take them back, nothing hits the curb
  • No tape, no assembly: they're ready when they arrive

With cardboard boxes

  • Crush under weight and fall apart when wet
  • Hours of taping, breaking down, and hauling to recycling
  • Buying, begging, or dumpster diving for enough boxes
  • One move and they're trash
  • Hidden costs add up fast
Sal, owner of Totes4U in Toms River, NJ
Who you're renting from

Hi, I'm Sal.

Totes4U is a small, family run business my wife Loren and I started right here in Toms River. When your totes show up, it's us dropping them off, not a warehouse crew or a call center.

We started it for a simple reason: we got tired of watching friends and neighbors scramble for cardboard the week of a move, then spend the next month breaking it all down. Totes are just a better way to do it, so we bought a truckload and started delivering them.

  • Local. Born and raised in Ocean County, based in Toms River.
  • Family run. No franchise, no middleman, no call center.
  • Every tote sanitized. Cleaned between every single rental.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Everything else you'd want to know before booking.

How does Totes4U work?

Pick a package and a drop off date. We deliver clean 27 gallon totes to your door, you pack and move over the next 2 weeks, then we come back and pick up the empties. No buying boxes, no tape, nothing to break down or recycle.

How many totes do I need?

Size it to the home you are moving out of. A studio usually needs about 20 totes, a 1 bedroom 30, a 2 bedroom 40, a 3 bedroom 60, a 4 bedroom 80 and a 5 bedroom 100. Full basements, garages and big kitchens can push you up a tier. Our room by room guide walks through it.

Can I book and pay online?

Yes. Pick your package, drop off date and address on our booking page and pay securely with card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. You get a confirmation email as soon as the payment goes through. Prefer to ask first? Email us or send a request and we will confirm by email.

How much does it cost to rent moving totes?

Packages start at $95 for 20 totes and go up to $355 for 100, all for 2 weeks with delivery and pickup included. The most popular is the 2 Bedroom package, 40 totes for $175. See every package.

Is there a delivery fee?

No. Delivery and pickup are included in every package anywhere in our Ocean County and Monmouth County service area.

Will my movers work with rented totes?

Yes. Movers handle totes the same way they handle boxes, and most prefer them because they are rigid, the same size and stack straight in the truck. Just pack them so they can still be lifted comfortably.

Can I use totes and cardboard boxes together?

Sure. Plenty of people use totes for most of the house and keep a few boxes for odd shaped items. Here is our honest totes vs cardboard comparison if you are deciding.

How far in advance should I book?

We ask for at least 24 hours notice so we can schedule your delivery and pickup. Need totes faster? Email us anyway. When we can make it happen in as little as 12 hours, we will.

What's the minimum order?

20 totes. That's our Studio package at $95 for two weeks, delivery and pickup included.

What if I need the totes longer than 2 weeks?

No problem. Extra weeks run $45 for a Studio up to $95 for a 5BR, and the exact price is listed on every package card. Just let us know before your pickup date.

Can I get more totes if I run short?

Yes. Email us and we will bring more. Extra totes are prorated at your package's per tote rate, plus a small drop off fee that depends on your location.

Do I need to be home for delivery or pickup?

No. Tell us where to leave the totes when you book, and on pickup day just have the empties stacked somewhere we can reach them, like the porch, the driveway or an open garage.

What happens if a tote is lost or damaged?

Lost or damaged totes are $35 each. Normal wear from a move is expected. We just ask you treat them well.

What if I miss my pickup?

A missed pickup incurs a $65 trip fee for the return visit. We'll confirm your pickup window ahead of time.

How big is a 27 gallon tote?

Each tote holds 27 gallons, which is roughly the capacity of two medium cardboard boxes. They have snap on lids and straight walls, so they stack flat in a truck, a garage or a hallway without leaning.

Do I have to clean the totes before pickup?

No. Just empty them. Every tote is sanitized between rentals, so a quick shake out is plenty.

Where do you deliver?

Our standard service area is Ocean County plus Monmouth County, NJ, including but not limited to Middletown, Holmdel, Colts Neck, Marlboro, Manalapan, Freehold, Rumson, Fair Haven, Spring Lake, Sea Girt, Wall, and Manasquan. Nearby but not on the list? Email us and we'll see what we can do.
