How quickly can I get my GreenTree Crates?
Call or email us when you are planning your move and we will do our best to accommodate your schedule.  Sometimes we can get the crates delivered the same day.  The more advance notice, the better we can meet your needs.  

How big is a GreenTree Crate?

How Many GreenTree Crates do I need?
We have come up with packages based on the number of bedrooms/square feet and the “average” mover.  These crates hold a lot of stuff.  If you think you might need more, order a few extra crates.  Think you don’t have much – order a few less.  We will work with you to customize plans for your move.
