Your moving bin rental FAQ – everything customers ask us before they book.
How many bins do I need?
Rule of thumb: about 12–15 bins per furnished room. Our packages are sized so a 2-bedroom home fits comfortably in the 40-bin Family package. If you’re between sizes, size down and add bins later — we’re local, so topping you up is easy.
Are the bins actually clean?
Yes — every bin is washed and disinfected between rentals, then zip-tie sealed. The seal is your proof: if it’s intact, nothing and nobody has been inside since our wash station.
What if I need more time?
Extra weeks are $25–35 depending on your package. Just text us — no forms, no penalty.
What if a bin is lost or damaged?
We charge a flat $15 replacement per bin. No lectures, it happens.
Do you move my stuff too?
We’re the bins, not the muscle — but we’re happy to recommend local movers we trust. (Movers love our bins: uniform sizes load trucks faster, which can save you money on hourly rates.)
How is this cheaper than cardboard?
A 3-bedroom move typically needs $150–$300 of boxes, tape, and paper — single-use. Our 60-bin package is $229, delivered and picked up. And you never spend a Saturday flattening boxes for the recycling bin.
What about apartments and stairs?
No problem. Ground-floor delivery is free; stairs add 10% for the extra handling. Gate codes and leasing-office rules — just note them on your quote.
When do I pay?
Card on file when you book; charged at delivery. Reschedule or cancel free up to 48 hours out.
Can I rent bins for something that isn’t a move?
Absolutely — garage cleanouts, home staging, renovations, seasonal storage shuffles. If it needs bins for a couple of weeks, Bin That works the same way.
