Moving box rental in Stoney Creek — reusable plastic bins
First, to be clear: these are reusable plastic moving bins with secure lids — hand-carried moving boxes that hold 102 litres each, not dumpsters or portable storage containers.
Between the new builds on the upper Creek and the older homes along Highway 8, Stoney Creek moves cover a lot of ground. Reusable bins mean one delivery instead of repeated trips for more cardboard.
Bins arrive washed and sanitized for $5 each the first week, and we pick them up from your door on a Monday, Wednesday or Friday.
$5 per bin for the first week · $1.50 per bin each extra week · delivery & pickup included.

What moving in Stoney Creek is actually like
Stoney Creek stretches from the old downtown along Highway 8 up to the newer subdivisions on the upper Creek, and the two ends move very differently. Older homes near Battlefield have modest rooms and tighter access; the upper Creek builds off Paramount and Green Mountain are larger, with basements and two-car garages.
The escarpment split matters for scheduling. Getting between lower and upper Stoney Creek means the Centennial or Mud Street climb, so a move that involves both ends takes longer than the map suggests. One bin delivery removes at least two of those trips.
Out toward Winona and Fruitland the addresses spread out and lots get deeper. We deliver to the door regardless, but leave a clear path from the driveway.
Local packing tips for Stoney Creek
Plan for the climb
If you are moving from lower to upper Stoney Creek, load heavy bins last and secure them. Lids stop dishes shifting on Centennial.
New builds need more than you think
Upper Creek homes have a finished basement in most cases. Add 15 bins for it.
Use the garage as the packing room
Deep two-car garages here make an ideal staging area — stack sealed bins by room against the wall.
Where else can you get moving boxes in Stoney Creek?
The retail strip along Centennial Parkway sells cardboard, and there are usually free used boxes circulating locally. For a 40-bin move, though, that is several trips and a lot of tape. Bins arrive washed, in one drop, on the day you pick.
Better than U-Haul boxes
A bundle of 20 U-Haul medium cardboard boxes costs about $90.54 delivered to Stoney Creek — and you still buy tape, get less space per box, and recycle everything afterwards. Twenty of our 102 L reusable bins are $113 all in, with free labels and a dolly included.
You can buy cardboard at hardware and storage stores or collect used boxes for free. The simpler option in Stoney Creek is renting reusable plastic moving bins from Binsley — they arrive at your door for $5 per bin the first week and we pick them up when you're unpacked.
How much does it cost to rent moving bins in Stoney Creek?
$5 per bin for the first week and $1.50 per bin for each extra week. Delivery and pickup in Stoney Creek are included, and only the first week is charged at checkout.
How many moving boxes or bins do I need in Stoney Creek?
Newer subdivisions push counts higher — plan on 40 bins for a 3-bedroom and 60 for a larger home. As a rule of thumb, about 20 bins suits a 1 bedroom, 40 a 2 to 3 bedroom, and 60 or more a larger home. Each bin holds 102 litres, roughly a medium moving box.
Which parts of Stoney Creek do you deliver to?

When can bins be delivered and picked up?

Are reusable bins better than cardboard moving boxes?
For most moves, yes. One bin is reused for hundreds of moves and washed between each one, it won't collapse under weight, and the lid keeps everything dry — no tape, no assembly and nothing to recycle afterwards.
Is a moving bin the same as a dumpster or storage container?
No. Our moving bins are reusable plastic moving boxes with secure lids — each one holds 102 litres and is carried by hand, about the size of a medium cardboard box. They are not waste dumpsters or portable storage containers.

Yes — we cover the whole of Stoney Creek, from Battlefield and Lake Avenue up to the newer Paramount and Green Mountain subdivisions, plus Fruitland and Winona. Postal codes L8E, L8G and L8J are all in our delivery zone.
