Boxit is the next generation of self-storage. We bring boxes to your door, and pick them up when they are packed. Everything is beautifully cataloged on an online portal, and you can request for next-day deliver to access your items.
Boxit won the Outstanding Venture Prize at the 2013 Next 36 Venture Day. Please reach me at lauren@boxitnow.ca if you are interested in learning more.
