Moving Boxes for Owner-Occupied Homes Near Nees Avenue
Nees Avenue passes through much of the newer housing developments in Fresno. From First Street through Fresno Street, there are several pockets where folks have been living for 10-15 years. They have garages full of things they forgot they owned. We deliver boxes to homes along this corridor weekly; we have a consistent story with every move:
The vast majority of the homes near Nees Avenue are for owner-occupants. This makes a significant difference when it comes to moving boxes.
If you're renting an apartment and moving out, you might need a dozen boxes. However, if you're living in one of the northeast Fresno's newer areas with a three-car garage, a shed in your backyard, and children that have grown up in your house, it is a completely different scenario. You are filling boxes with your holiday lights from your hallway, with gadgets that you bought at River Park and sports equipment that you bought from your son playing in the soccer field at Woodward Park. Cardboard does not withstand the stress. Our moving containers do because you stack the boxes on top of each other. They hold more because they can withstand more pressure without being taped or ripped or needing any repairs. All you do is fill and you're done.
EZPak Bins delivers our reusable moving containers straight to your front door in our Nees Avenue neighborhood. Matt and Elisa Brown are the owners, not a franchise; we do not require deposits to rent our bins. We also give you a free extra week for every rental you make with us. If you live along this corridor in a typical family home, chances are, it takes longer to pack and unload than you think.
Here are some things we see in homes along this corridor that help us understand how they pack:
- Open floor plans with high ceilings; they require wardrobe box rentals because of the large wall art pieces and decor that are too tall
- Walk-in pantries that go deep; they are a great spot to put sturdy moving boxes that do not break easily under the pressure of cans
- Attached two and three car garages that store everything from tools to bicycles to other seasonal items, all which can be used to fill many of the moving containers
- Laminate and/or tile throughout; furniture dolly rentals save your back and your floors
We recently helped a family pack up close to where Nees intersects Millbrook. It was a four-bedroom house with a game room. They also had an outdoor kitchen that they had spent their weekends installing. They started using cardboard from their local big-box store. Two days later, the bottoms were sagging and they had gone through three boxes worth of tape.
They phoned, and we brought the plastic bins the next morning. They packed up the rest of the house during the weekend. There were no pieces of tape. There were no crushed boxes shoved in the truck bed. That is what living is like in this section of northeast Fresno. The house is larger. The accumulation is substantial. Cardboard fails. So if you are moving boxes near Nees Avenue Fresno, you can do better than looking for second-hand boxes behind the Target on Blackstone. Reusable boxes are delivered to your doorstep by appointment. When you finish unpacking, we collect everything. No paper boxes are left on the street corner. No worries about recycling. The only thing you bring to the new space is a fresh start. We also carry packing paper, hand truck rentals, and short-term moving box storage if you need to stage your move over a few weeks. Because houses in this area near Nees move very quickly after they have been put on the market, and purchasers want to settle as soon as possible, it makes sense to arrive with the moving supplies before the escrow closes.
Reaching EZPak Bins from the Nees Avenue Region
You don't have to come to us. We deliver reusable moving boxes to the Nees Avenue section from the Blackstone Street intersection to Clovis. Still, here is how we usually approach Nees Avenue.
- We drive northbound on Highway 41 from central Fresno.
- Exit at Nees Avenue and turn east.
- From there it's a straight shot past First Street, Cedar, Fresno, and all the way to Willow if that's where you are.
- The houses that sit north of Nees near Shepherd and Behymer are easily accessible from any nearby cross street.
If all goes well, the trip to the area will take 15 minutes or so, depending on the time of day. In an average afternoon, that may take a bit longer to reach. A bit extra to add if you are caught in peak traffic at the intersection of 41 and Nees. We're familiar with the Nees Avenue region. Many of our packages are sent to the communities between Fresno and Willow, the ones behind the commercial plazas of Nees and Blackstone or nearer to Woodward Park, and our boxes are brought to the newer neighborhoods north of Nees near Copper. A key element to successful deliveries in northeast Fresno is that the street layout is very straightforward. Nees Avenue heads directly east and west. North-and-south roads are evenly distributed. The neighborhood streets that branch off Nees Avenue are typically wide and feature either broad driveways or circular streets large enough to turn a car around in. It's easy; we can typically pull right up to your garage and quickly stack the boxes inside.
If your home is inside one of the gated communities off Nees, closer to Champlain or Fort Washington Rd., just provide the gate code with your booking and you'll be all set. We've done it plenty of times.
Delivery is always free with your rental, there's no deposit required either! It makes no sense to drive home with your cardboard boxes from a store on Blackstone when we're able to bring your moving bins right to your door and pick them up when you're unpacked!
Because the homes along Nees have large garages, many are 3-car garages with newer constructions, the garage is the best area for you to stage your move. We'll stack your boxes where you like, and once you're ready we'll come pick them up, leaving them in the same place where you had stacked them.
If you're moving to somewhere near Fresno or Clovis from the Nees Avenue neighborhood, you'll be well within our 40 mile service area for both drop-off and return of your boxes, or if you're going to Madera or Sanger, we still cover those as well.
Looking for things beyond moving boxes? We also rent wardrobe boxes for your bedrooms, furniture dollies for heavy dressers, hand trucks for your garage, and packing paper for your kitchen! And everything comes to you in one delivery to your neighborhood.

What the Long-term Nature of Home Ownership on Nees Avenue Means for Your Move
Nees Avenue has families that often stay in the same homes for long periods. There are many properties from the First Street area to the Fresno Street homes on Nees that have the same family or even one or two families for 10, 15 or 20 years. So when someone living in northeast Fresno moves out, they aren't moving out of a one bedroom apartment. They're moving out of a life lived for over a decade!
That makes a HUGE difference in your move and the boxes you need.
How much accumulates in a four bedroom house on Nees Avenue in 10 or 20 years? Holiday items filling up the garage? Your child's room that became a guest room then a home office? The shed out back full of camping gear, sporting equipment, and tools you didn't even know you owned? That stuff is going to take more cardboard boxes!
They sag when they are packed and will not stack without collapsing, and you will need 2x as many because half will fall over as you pack. Reusable moving boxes solve that problem. Our plastic moving bins stack clean and can hold up to 65 lbs each without bending. You will be able to load a garage of stuff into a set and stack those bins from floor to ceiling on your moving truck. No tape or assembling. And when you finish unpacking in the new home we will come pick them up at your door. We frequently deliver moving bins to homes located around the Nees Avenue area in Fresno. Many of the neighborhoods near Blackstone and Chestnut are made up of single family homes with long driveways and 2 car garages, the kind of house where people hoard things. If someone is living in a house near Nees and Millbrook and has lived here for 15 years, 10 moving boxes will not be enough to pack up their house. You will need 40-50 moving boxes. These are the moving bins rental bundles we build and offer you. Here is some of the most common moving scenarios we see in the neighborhood:
- Moving downsizing as kids leave for Fresno State or Clovis Community College
- Families relocating from this area to newer construction homes near Copper River or further out near Clovis
- Retirees moving closer to family in Madera or the Sanger area
Regardless of the moving situation, all 3 scenarios involve packing and moving many years worth of belongings. Every scenario can be accomplished with ease using durable plastic moving bins that don't require being taped up or assembled from flat. EZPak Bins is a family owned plastic moving boxes rental company here in Fresno, CA. Matt and Elisa Brown started the business after realizing how much waste a move can create. Especially in an area like this where the homes are bigger and people have lived here for decades, this kind of waste can quickly accumulate. EZPak Bins can easily prevent that by providing a solution that is much better for the environment: reusable moving boxes that get picked up at your house for free and reused for other people moving in the city. We offer free delivery and pick up in any neighborhoods and zip codes within 40 miles of Fresno which means that getting moving boxes delivered to homes in this area of Fresno, doesn't mean driving to a storage place or hunting around a strip mall parking lot looking for cardboard boxes. Instead we can come to your home. We also don't require any deposits, you even get a free extra week with every moving box rental bundle that we deliver, which is great to know in case you pack up your house and it takes longer to completely move and unpack your belongings than you thought. The biggest takeaway from a lot of long term homeowners in the area of Nees Avenue? We hadn't even heard of reusable moving boxes rental service until recently. This seems to be true for most people around this area. They thought cardboard boxes were their only option. They aren't.
Do you deliver moving boxes directly to homes in the Nees Avenue area, or do I have to pick them up?
We deliver straight to your front door — you never have to leave your neighborhood. We drive up Highway 41, exit at Nees, and head east to wherever you are, from Blackstone all the way out to Willow. Most deliveries in the Nees Avenue area take about 15 minutes from our end. We pull right up to your garage and stack the bins inside. No trip to a store on Blackstone needed.
Why do homes near Nees Avenue seem to need so many more moving boxes than a typical apartment move?
Most homes along the Nees Avenue corridor are owner-occupied, and families here have lived in them for 10 to 15 years. That means three-car garages, walk-in pantries stacked with cans, game rooms, and outdoor kitchens. That is a completely different packing job than a one-bedroom rental. Cardboard fails fast under that kind of weight. Reusable plastic bins stack without tape and hold up through the whole move.
What if my home near Nees is inside a gated community — can you still deliver?
Yes, we deliver to gated communities off Nees all the time, including those near Champlain and Fort Washington Road. Just include your gate code when you book, and we handle the rest. The street layout in northeast Fresno is straightforward, and most neighborhood streets off Nees are wide enough for easy access. We have done it plenty of times without any issues.
