Free Boxes For Moving Chicago

Free shipping from B&H was overnight from N.Y. to Chicago suburbs. Love the Fuji 8-16mm because the images are amazing. The lens is bigger & a little heavy but it's sharpness is completely worth those issues. An added bonus is the new perspective on close/macro style shots because your able to get such a deeper DOF. I first rented the lens before buying for a trip to Grand Canyon & it became the only lens I used. Didn't use rental co's "buy" option because from a previous renter there was a small amount of debris inside the lens that only appeared in certain light (sun at particular angle to lens). So know a lens weather seal isn't a guarantee & I'll be careful with mine. The free case that came with it is good for storage & has a mesh net in the lid that I use for a Desiccant Silica Gel Pack.

I have been using this cart for moving boxes and furniture from my girlfriends apartment to mine (in the same building), and to the storage unit in our neighboring building, though it's main purpose is to get totes of equipment from my apartment, to the car, and into a venue. It expands, contracts, and folds up in seconds, so you can just throw it in the car once you're loaded up. I've shaved 10-15 minutes off my load-in/load-out process by getting this cart. (I have yet to try it in real MN snow.)I have not used the cart in the hand truck configuration, but I don't think I will need to with how well it works on four wheels.The side bar/handle on the smart caster end is tall enough so I don't have to hunch to hold onto it when I am pulling the cart. I'm 5'9 and this has been a problem for me with other products in the past.You do have to assemble the cart when you get it, but it's quick and painless if you grab a socket instead of listening to the directions and getting out a socket.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s been really good to note the boxes while moving with the bold non erasable and permanent writing on boxes .moving boxes is so easy to recognize due to bold sharpie writing pen marking on them .love the pen .Planning to buy more for other stuff .

For moving around studio lights especially with large soft boxes these Avenger light stands can't be beat. Once in place you can lay sand bags over the wheeled part and it's secure. Even without sandbags it doesn't want to tip over.

Like many people, I had carousels of 2 x 2 slides from many decades back. A friend recommended moving the slides from the carousels and putting them into these boxes for easy storage. Since each box held up to 750 slides, I was able to consolidate 30+ carousels into 4 of these storage boxes--saved so much space and I still have the images close by if I want to view them. Did like the idea of the double latches to ensure the boxes did not accidentally open. Much thanks to B & H Shipping Dept who had these boxes in my home within 2 days--thanks so very much.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly made moving a breeze, we try to keep things organized but using old boxes and mismatched writing can really mess everything up, this works perfectly and helps the kids not fight over who’s toys are whos

Have had apple boxes for over 40 years that have disappeared from lending to friends or moving and needed a few more. These are great. Beautifully made, great product, fast shipping - A+

I can't compare it to others but I have three Matthews Apple Boxes and can say it's a good strong box. No moving parts. No frills. Just a good strong box. It will give you what you want from an apple box, except for the apples.

I bought this kit after trying a couple of the boxes. This unit is much more flexible when it comes to moving the subject in an out, adjusting the light cards, adding back lighting, etc. Construction is pretty solid and stable -- no cheap zippers to break when zipping and unzipping light boxes. Easy to take pictures with minimal post production. Seamless base is great and no wrinkles or tears in the backdrop to worry about.

These Slide Archival boxes were just what I needed. I'm moving and didn't have time to scan all my slides. The metal boxes are very well constructed and of a high quality.
