About this tool
Enter the number of rooms and the boxes you expect per room, and the tool totals the boxes and splits them into small, medium, and large shares of 40, 40, and 20 percent. It is a planning estimate — book-filled rooms need more small boxes than the split assumes.
Frequently asked questions
Should I buy extra boxes?
Yes, a few extra small and medium boxes cover the last cupboards that always hold more than expected.
What about wardrobes?
Wardrobe boxes are counted separately, since hanging clothes need their own box type.
