Pickup prep

Same simple routine every time.

Flatten your cardboard, keep it dry, and place it in your pickup spot by 8 AM on your route day.

Flatten first

Flattening keeps pickups quick and makes each stack easier to handle.

Keep it dry

Use a covered porch, garage edge, or another protected spot when rain is expected.

Put it out by 8 AM

Your agreed pickup location keeps the visit simple, even when you are not home.

Pickup limits

Designed for route-sized household cardboard.

A standard pickup covers up to 25 flattened household shipping boxes, or one tidy flattened stack no larger than about 3 feet wide, 3 feet deep, and 2 feet tall.

If the pile is larger than the plan limit, send a photo before pickup. Box Gopher may quote an added overflow fee or schedule a separate visit.

Recurring plan limit

Recurring plans include one standard pickup stack per scheduled visit. Larger stacks may be skipped, partially collected, or handled as an overflow pickup.

Overflow pickup limit

A one-time overflow pickup covers up to three standard pickup stacks. Larger moving, renovation, furniture, or months-long piles should be approved before pickup.
