Box Gopher picks up flattened shipping boxes from your home on a simple recurring schedule. No calls, no appointments, no more cardboard pile.

The household box problem

Delivery boxes should not own your garage.

Online orders are convenient. The cardboard aftermath is not. Box Gopher gives busy households a simple way to keep the pile from becoming a permanent fixture.

The bin fills up first

Regular recycling pickup helps, but the cart can disappear under cardboard fast.

The pile gets annoying

Boxes end up by the door, in the garage, or next to the car until someone has time.

The errand never feels worth it

We make the extra cardboard disappear without adding another chore to your week.

Good to know

A few practical details before pickup day.

Pickup is designed to be simple, but the small details matter. Here are the questions most people ask before they start.

Do I need to be home?

No. Put your flattened, dry cardboard in the agreed pickup spot by 8 AM and we will take it from there.

Do boxes need to be flattened?

Yes. Please flatten boxes before pickup so each visit stays quick, tidy, and predictable.

What if it rains?

Cardboard must stay dry. If heavy rain is expected, place boxes in a covered spot such as a porch, garage edge, or another protected location.

Can I cancel anytime?
