Start with your home size
The calculator uses your home size and how much you own to suggest a bookable tote package. It is a starting point, not a count of individual objects. Enter the home size that best describes the rooms you are packing, then choose whether your belongings are light, typical or plentiful. Compare the recommendation with the package details before choosing your dates.
For a quick rule of thumb: Dorm / Studio includes 10 totes for 1 week at $89; 1 Bedroom includes 20 totes and 1 black 4-wheel dolly for 2 weeks at $115; 2–3 Bedrooms includes 40 totes and 1 black 4-wheel dolly for 2 weeks at $209; 4+ Bedrooms includes 60 totes and 2 black 4-wheel dollies for 2 weeks at $239. Each tote is a reusable 27-gallon plastic moving box with a yellow snap-on lid. Packages for one bedroom and larger include black 4-wheel dollies. Free next-day delivery & pickup.
When to choose more totes
A full kitchen, shelves of books, hobby supplies or a packed garage can make a home feel larger than its floor plan. If that sounds familiar, compare the next package rather than packing each tote too heavily. Books are easier to carry when mixed with lighter items. Leave enough room for lids to snap shut and keep each tote assigned to a room.
STORVA drops off empty totes. You pack, move and unpack your belongings, and we collect the empty totes on your chosen pickup date. For a closer look at counts by room, read the moving box size guide. You can also reserve a package directly once you know your dates. We do not pack or move your belongings.

Are dollies included?
