Power Up Your Packaging Business with Strategic Partnerships

 If you’re in the packaging business—whether you're an owner, manager, or frontline specialist—teaming up with movers and utility resellers can be a game-changer. These partnerships put your products in front of people and businesses at exactly the right time: when they’re packing up and relocating.

Why Movers Make Perfect Partners
Movers are on the front lines of every relocation. When customers start planning their move, they need boxes, tape, bubble wrap, and more. By partnering with movers, your company becomes the recommended source for all things packaging—right when customers need it most. You can even work with movers to create custom move kits like “First Apartment Essentials” or “Office Move Packs” that simplify things for customers and increase your average sale.

Example: Movers could offer pre-packed kits from your company as an add-on service—boosting your sales and making their service more attractive. Your team benefits too, with predictable orders and more work prepping high-volume kits for multiple types of moves.

Why Resellers and Utility Agents Are Valuable Allies
Authorized agents for internet, phone, and TV services are already talking to new homeowners and renters before move-in day. By partnering with them, your products become part of a complete move-in package. Think of a “Move & Connect” bundle—boxes, bubble wrap, and utility setup in one smooth offer. It’s a convenience customers love, and a marketing opportunity you won’t want to miss.

Example: A local internet reseller adds your packaging kits to their welcome offer. In return, you promote their services with a flyer or discount card inside each box bundle. You both win—and customers walk away with a streamlined move.

How It Helps You Grow

• Boost Sales Volume: Tap into steady demand from individuals, families, and businesses moving regularly.
• Stand Out with Specialization: Offer curated kits for different move types—home, condo, or office—setting your brand apart.
• Lower Marketing Costs: Let movers and resellers do the selling for you through bundled offers and word-of-mouth referrals.
• Reach Local Markets: Work with local service providers to build brand visibility and trust in high-traffic neighborhoods.
• Win Repeat Business: Customers appreciate convenience—making them more likely to come back for future moves, storage needs, or even seasonal packing.
   

Why It Matters for Your Team and the Community
For your team, more orders mean more consistent work—packing supplies, assembling kits, managing inventory, and serving clients with confidence. For your community, these partnerships keep dollars local and make relocating a smoother, less stressful experience for everyone involved.

Getting Started Is Simple:

• Offer movers discounted packaging supplies in bulk.
• Create co-branded kits with your logo and theirs.
• Add QR codes to boxes linking to setup services or move-in tips.
• Co-host a “Welcome to the Neighborhood” event with a local reseller.
• Use customer trend data to forecast demand and stock the right products.
