Westdale moving supplies
Westdale turns over fast around the McMaster calendar, and cardboard is scarce exactly when everyone needs it. Bins are booked ahead and delivered on your date.
We cover the village, Sterling Street and the streets around campus for $5 per bin the first week — handy for shared houses splitting the cost.
$5 per bin for the first week · $1.50 per bin each extra week · delivery & pickup included.
| Reusable bins from Binsley | Cardboard moving boxes | |
|---|---|---|
| Cost | $5 per bin first week, $1.50 after — delivery and pickup included | $2–$5 per box, plus tape, plus a run to the store |
| Time | Delivered on a Mon, Wed or Fri you pick | Hours spent sourcing and assembling |
| Strength | Rigid walls, 102 L, safe to stack loaded | Crush under weight and after one move |
| Weather | Snap-on lids keep contents dry | Ruined by rain or a wet driveway |
| Cleanliness | Washed and sanitized before every rental | Used boxes can bring dust and pests |
| Afterwards | We take them away | Break down, store and recycle |
Student houses and apartments usually land between 15 and 30 bins per household.

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.
