  • I would definitely use Boxhub again. Ordering was easy and delivered on the date specified. The delivery driver Dave was awesome. I ordered a 40 foot container. It took sometime but he got it in place. Definitely a two thumbs up . If you need a container just remember. There are a lot of scams out there. They take your money and don't ever deliver. Boxhub maybe a couple hundred more. To me it was worth it not to have a headache. Thanks Boxhub !!!

    Danilo Sierra
  • We are very pleased with our BoxHub experience. The process was easy, and setting up delivery was a breeze. We worked with Steven J at BoxHub, Elizabeth set up delivery and Leon was our delivery driver. Everything went smoothly and the containers are exactly what Steven said they would be. Elizabeth gave us Leon's name when scheduling and he called us the evening before hand as promised. Leon maneuvered his truck on our challenging driveway/hill with grace and a smile, then dropped the containers exactly where we needed them. Thank you for doing as you say you will.

  • Got the container here delivered on schedule and as described. Driver was AWESOME. Boxhub website is ok but A) I had problems accessing parts of the site, server errors. B) I never got any updates on my container BUT was subscribed to updates on ALL off their containers. Got notified for 2 weeks every time any container was scheduled, picked up, or delivered. C) my container was delivered and still shows not delivered. Fix your site guys! Nonetheless, got here on time and delivery was great, would buy from again.
