History

Established in 2003.

Long story short — it was a case of involuntary entrepreneurship that happened to work out pretty well :-)

Three things I feel strongly about:

1) Treat others as you would like to be treated, with respect and politeness.

2) Under-​promise and over-​deliver.

3) And speaking of deliver: Slower traffic stay to the right! I’ve gotta get these moving supplies to the needy and cardboard box-​less masses of the SF Bay Area … so please don’t loiter in the left lane (didn’t you ever go to Drivers Ed.?).

No need to look any further. The most convenient, affordable and courteous moving supply service I’ve ever experienced. Warren was very helpful in determining exactly what I needed for my move — and even threw in some extras. Do not hesitate to contact him for all of your packing needs.

Warren was exceptionally helpful! We had originally planned to meet on his scheduled route but I had a scheduling conflict come up — but Warren was so accommodating! He went out of his way to drop off the boxes at my house. He even threw in a few extra boxes — just because!
All the boxes and tape are of top quality. I’d highly recommend working with Warren.

Warren was so fast! What a great service! I sent him an email at 10 pm yesterday, and had a big order of boxes in my house by 10 am the next day. Great prices, great product, nice guy. Would recommend to anyone.

Warren is great. I called up to ask a question and he directed me to the website where I put in my order for a bundle that was delivered the next day! Great pricing on high-​quality boxes. I don’t know what I would have done without BABE. Thanks, Warren!

Warren is great — on time, resonsive and makes sure you get what you need. He’ll work with you if you have specific needs. And the doggie is so cute! That was one item to check off my list with ease.

Just call Warren and his esteemed associate Tony (his adorable dog) and they will deliver everything you need for your move. Best service ever, great variety of boxes, packing materials, etc.
Order online and everything shows up at your door. Super fast service and prices.

Warren and Bay Area Box Express was awesome! I am moving a bit last minute and he was able to deliver asap at an excellent price. The process was extremely easy and efficient. He was able to deliver to my house at my scheduled time and threw in some extra boxes and supplies as well. He was very nice, professional, and helpful. I would highly recommend BayArea Box Express for any box needs!

Ordered boxes from Warren twice and both times I met up with him on by a local grocery store for pickup.
You just fill out a form on the website and he contacts you to arrange delivery or pickup. He loaded the boxes in my vehicle and got some freebies because I met up with him. The boxes were all clean and looked almost new. They were all the same size so packing the moving truck was easy.
Warren provided excellent customer service along with his little friend Tony. I plan to use Bay Area Box Express anytime I need boxes for a move!

Saved the day. Needed a lot of small boxes fast and delivered somehow. I thought I’d have to pay a ridiculous amount and have to wait days but not only did I get what I needed the next day, the prices are reasonable too. A move is stressful enough, Warren’s delivery helped to take the edge off. Oh, & he has a cute little dog who helps out. Great service thank you!

Thank you, Warren.

What a GREAT experience and service! Warren was unbelievably friendly, professional and efficient. We called late on Friday and he kindly offered to meet us on Saturday for our boxes. What SERVICE!!! What a great help it was for our move.
Could not recommend Warren and Bay Area Box Express more!!!
Also, we have moved quite a lot unfortunately, and the quality of the wardrobe boxes compared to all the others was fantastic!
Thank you, Warren

These guys are super awesome!!! I’m getting ready to move cross country back to the east coast and needed sturdy yet cheap moving boxes. I put a phone call in and met up at their storage space in San Rafael. Not only did I get what I paid for but they even threw a few extra items at me at no extra cost! I highly recommend going with these guys if you’re planning a move or just need boxes for packing and storage. Best customer service ever!

Need boxes?
Need ‘em fast, and delivered to your front door?
And for a competitive price?
On a *Sunday*???
That was my experience with him recently, and also back in 2007 when my husband and I moved from Pleasant Hill.
Professional, helpful, efficient, friendly. His dog is his co-​pilot (I kid you not) and is very friendly.

What a great service! Bay Area Box Express has a wide variety of box sizes and packing materials all at a great price. It’s an easy online ordering process. Plus they deliver for a very reasonable fee:) And Warren, the owner, was even kind enough to drop me off at my mechanics down the road after he delivered my supplies. Such a nice guy!

Fabulous service. I Go on line — fill out my order &
Next morning boxes are delivered to my door. I also called Warren who was so helpful and courteous. Prices are right. This IS THE place to go for your box supples.

Don’t even bother looking anywhere else; just call these guys and place your order. The cost diff between them and everyone else is significant. Unless you feel like dumpster diving you’re not going to find a better deal.
I placed my order on Friday and he delivered to my apartment on Sunday. I got the studio size box package and it’s right on. Even the accessories — bubble wrap, tape, etc is way cheaper.

I love the service of Box Express — I had one-​bedroom-​ish amount of boxes and supplies delivered by Warren. I am happy with the service and professionalism — he was prompt and kept communication/​questions very responsive on email. I have been going through some medical drama, so he was very considerate about my comfort and un-​ease of being able to help out by not lifting much. It is a great human touch that he is able to work with people this way — rather than some conglomerate box store who would probably be a curb-​only delivery (in downtown SF) or hassle me for extra fees to help move the boxes about. Plus, you get to meet Tony, the dog, as well.
I hope that I do not have to move anytime soon — but, if I do, I would contact Warren again without hesitation.
