Can I use my own boxes?

Of course you can! We just ask that the boxes you choose are as sturdy as the ones we sell. They must be made of double-walled cardboard which means you should see at least two layers of zigzags when you look closely at the edge of the box. Please don’t risk damage to your stuff by using any old box. Never use boxes, like crisp boxes, which were originally intended for another purpose. Your box needs to be heavy-duty, so if it’s second-hand, it’s probably not suitable. LOVESPACE packing materials are double-walled and made of corrugated cardboard and are designed to handle up to 25kg of contents. You can see see our full range of boxes and buy them here.

Can I get my packing materials delivered tomorrow?

Yes, we offer next day delivery (excluding Sunday) of cardboard boxes, bubble wrap and all other packing materials. Just make sure that you place your order by 11am the working day before you need them, and they’ll be with you in a flash! It’s always a good idea to order your materials as early as possible, so you have enough time to pack your stuff ahead of your collection.

What kind of boxes and packing materials do you provide?

The packing materials we provide are designed specifically for storage and transportation. Our cardboard boxes are made of double-walled corrugated cardboard for extra strength. We also sell specialist packing materials including boxes for suitcases, bikes, clothes, crockery and archiving. You can order your boxes, packing tape and bubble wrap by clicking here. Here are some of the packing materials we sell: Small box: 29 x 40 x 34cm Medium box: 41 x 41 x 41cm Large box: 45 x 45 x 50cm Medium suitcase box: 45 x 25 x 58cm Large suitcase box: 52 x 40 x 75cm Archive box: 40 x 34 x 29cm Book box: 40 x 34 x 29cm Crockery box: 36 x 58 x 32cm Clothes box: 46 x 33 x 33cm Bike box: 147 x 23 x 97cm We really do recommend you use our boxes as they’re able to withstand significant weight and are suitable for transportation and storage. If you do need to use your own packing materials, please read through our guidelines here.

Do I have to be present during the packing?

Yes, we always require you or your representative to be present during packing. We’ve packed for thousands of customer’s and we’ve learned that it’s the best way to ensure we pack precisely what you need us to. We will not take responsibility of what has (or hasn’t!) been packed on the day of collection. We’ll follow the instructions provided on the day.

When can you collect my stuff?

On our standard collection service your driver will be with you any time between 7am and 7pm on the date you request. So that we can collect your stuff, please ensure that you (or someone that you trust) is available for the full duration collection window.

We’ve all been there. You’re searching through Instagram and Pinterest and you keep seeing these perfectly organised wardrobes by bloggers and think to ourselves “how do they manage that?”. You look over to your own disaster of a wardrobe and you have an epiphany. Today is the day to finally get organised. You get up off the sofa with all the hopes in the world, open your wardrobe and clothes come tumbling out! You have far too much stuff crammed into your limited storage space. Don't worry, you are not alone! Our LOVESPACE survey found that over a third of people in the UK wear less than 25% of what is in their wardrobe. That's a lot of misused wardrobe space. So we had a chat with the Editor of The Idle Man Manual, Tom Courcey, to get some handy top tips to help you declutter and organise your wardrobe. You'll have an Instagrammable wardrobe in no time!

Tip 1 - Make space for 4 piles of clothes

In order to organise your wardrobe you have to be prepared to have a thorough clear out. There will undoubtedly be things in your wardrobe that you don’t want anymore. We suggest that you prepare 4 piles; Keep, Donate, Bin, Store for now. There will be items that you wear regularly and want to proudly display in your Instagram worthy wardrobe. Fold these nicely in the “keep” pile. For the items that are not in season or in fashion right now but you don’t want to bin should go in the “store” pile. Clothes with stains on? Come on, time to bin! Finally, any good quality clothes that you won’t want to wear again should be donated to charity. You should also consider clothes which aren't in season. Do they need to be taking up precious space in your wardrobe? Winter clothes clear out to organise your wardrobe

Tip 2 - Be brave. Be ruthless.

This is important. If you are going to organise your wardrobe once and for all it needs to be a real declutter. Think carefully about which items you wear regularly and deserve a space in your limited clothing storage at home. If it can be binned, donated or stored then take the plunge and leave only the best in your wardrobe. Make sure you have enough time to do this job properly. Set aside a rainy afternoon, stick on your favourite playlist and enjoy it. Go hard, or go home to a messy wardrobe everyday. make time to organise your wardrobe

Tip 3 - Sort by style or colour

Now it's time to actually start the organising. This can be tricky as a lot of people don’t know where to start, but having a vision in mind always helps. We suggest sorting by colour or style. This will make it easier to find the outfit you want when you look at my wardrobe. If sorting by colour, start off with neutral tones at one end and gradually fade it into the my coloured items. Starting off with black, you can then transition it into grey, navy and then white. With the more colourful pieces in our wardrobes (there’s not many) we try and start off with the more muted tones and fade into the brighter options. If sorting by style we suggest thinking about the different occasions you want to dress for and arranging into item type such as T-shirts, then shirts, trousers and coats etc. This way what you’re looking for is always in a nice flow so you can instantly go into your wardrobe and pick something suitable out without having to search for it for hours. Your most special occasion items should be kept together with plenty of space between them to keep them in the best condition. near and tidy inspiration to organise your wardrobe

Now that you have carefully placed the “Keep” pile back in your picture perfect wardrobe of dreams, it is time to deal with the other 3 piles. Let us take care of the “store” and donate” pile. We will collect straight from your door, charge you per items stored (i.e. 4 boxes of clothing) and deliver it back to you as soon as the next day anywhere in the UK when you want them back. We have a partnership with OXFAM so we can take your donations to them for you. How handy is that! So all that is left to do is bin your dirty, stain ridden old clothes. That should be liberating!
