Meet Elizabeth and William Wood of Clean Moving Crates in Galleria Area

Today we’d like to introduce you to Elizabeth and William Wood.

Elizabeth and William, please share your story with us. How did you get to where you are today?
After having moved their own family six times, as well as transitioning senior relatives from large homes to smaller homes and apartments, the Wood family felt that there must be a better way to move. Juggling little ones in the middle of a move, and trying to maneuver the emotions of transitions was made harder by dealing with the mounds of boxes leftover after the unpacking process was finally finished. They found a better way to move with plastic, stackable rolling moving crates, and so Clean Moving Crates was formed.

Overall, has it been relatively smooth? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?
Being an entrepreneur has its challenges, but we wouldn’t have it any other way. We are both very hard workers, and we wanted to see all of our efforts going into something built for our family. With both of us coming from corporate jobs, one of our biggest challenges has been learning to drive our big delivery truck in Houston traffic. Another challenge is finding the work/life balance as a husband and wife team. We complement each other very well in the business, with each of us having very different strengths and weaknesses. But it’s learning to turn off the business at night that becomes the challenge. We’re learning to set boundaries, and we’ve designated times for just family and fun to make sure we find balance for our family.

Alright – so let’s talk business. Tell us about Clean Moving Crates – what should we know?
Clean Moving Crates is a family-owned and family-operated business serving Houston and the surrounding areas. We rent plastic, stackable moving crates that nest inside a rolling base as an alternative to traditional cardboard moving boxes. We provide clean, sturdy, environmentally friendly reusable plastic stackable moving crates and wheels so that customers save time and money for a hassle-free move. Using our Clean Moving Crates eliminates the need for assembly and disposal of cardboard boxes, and saves customers time by delivering the crates before their move, and picking them up after they have unpacked.

As an owner-operated business, we promise exceptional service, quick response times and timely deliveries with a smile. Our Clean Moving Crates make moving so much easier because you simply pack, stack and roll the crates to the moving truck. You can order online at our website by choosing from the suggested package sizes for any size of home or office. Every order includes labels for the crates, and you may also order packing supplies to be delivered with your crate rental package. We strive to be the bright spot in every move so our customers can embrace the excitement of moving instead of viewing it as a dreaded task.
