Are my contents safer in plastic crates than cardboard?
Yes — plastic crates are crush-proof, water-resistant, and stackable without slipping. Cardboard absorbs moisture, the bottoms fail on damp garage floors, and stacks shift in transit. The protection difference matters most for heavy items (books, kitchenware, electronics) and for moves that touch a Kansas City summer thunderstorm or winter freeze.
What's KC Moving Crates' cancellation policy?
Cancel 48+ hours before your delivery date and you get a full refund on the package fee, no questions. Cancellations inside 48 hours of delivery get a 50% refund — by that point we've already pulled your crates from available inventory for your dates. (We don't sell crates and don't accept returns the way retail does — once your rental window starts, the package fee is non-refundable. You can still reschedule your delivery date for free as long as you give us reasonable notice.)
