Anchor Box Company

Well, I went to Anchor box yesterday on Chimney Rock @ Richmond. Guess what? It is no longer Anchor Box. it has been bought by 2 Men and a Truck company. They have boxes (all branded 2 men & a truck). But not lots and were out of stock on items like TV boxes. In fact, it seemed somewhat empty except for standard moving boxes. The help was great. But I didn’t get everything I needed like marking pens, box knife, etc. if they have them, I didn’t see them. But they did load my car up with the boxes i bought.

The 60’s called, they want their manual sorting system back.
Each time I go to this place, they have this poor guy running around trying to get your order. THEN, when it’s time to get your order, as a business, they have to call the «corporate location» to ensure your tax information is on file. LISTEN, I don’t care if you come EVERYDAY AND THEY KNOW YOU, they STILL have to call the «corporate» office. Weirdest thing I’ve ever seen! A 10 minute transaction turns to 20 minutes because of this causing a line jam EVERY TIME.
Called the office and mentioned why and the person got snappy with me. Company will be the FIRST to blame someone for having to close down. Did I say weird?

the prices and selection are what keep people coming back, not the atmosphere.
the people who work at both locations are, um, a bit eccentric. I’ve experienced both friendliness and shortness from the same person.
but if you go to the chimney rock store, for heaven’s sake, do not walk past the register to actually LOOK at the boxes. you WILL get scolded.

The prices were pretty fair for sure, but the man that helped us was beyond rude. The older black guy was just pissed off at the world or something. It was unpleasant to deal with him and if I wasn’t in a hurry I would’ve left and bought elsewhere for a higher price just to be treated fairly.

Came here thinking I would break the bank buying moving boxes… I was totally wrong! I got a 24×18×18 box for 2.37 bc I bought ten of them. I only needed a couple for my move but I will def return here anytime i need boxes. The men that work here are also super sweet and helpful. They will carry your boxes out to your car for you without even asking :)

People who works at that place are very friendly and customer service oriented. Not to mention the low prices. But we tried another branch of the same company on Gessner and the person who works there is the rudest, most unprofessional person you can ever deal with, so we decided NEVER to step foot into Gessner branch ever again.
When we went to Chimney Rock branch, we were pleasantly surprised by how friendly and professional people who works there, that we felt compelled that we have to acknowledge the good and the bad and write a high star review for those team who works at Chimney.
I guess when you see the UGLY, you appreciate the NICE !
Shame on this company who can find and hire professional people yet they keep rude unprofessional at other site. Great products and great prices but spoiled by a LOUZY management !
Worst yet, when we called the company complaining about the rude people at Gessner, no excuses or care was given !
Our advice is NOT TO STEP FOOT AT GESSNER branch ! Try Chimney Rock, they ROCK!

I ordered an insulated shipping box online and went in store to pick it up. Prices were very competitive, and in my case, cheaper than Amazon. The staff were nice and helped me assemble my box. I would come back here again! They seem to have every type of box imaginable.

A great place to get boxes if you’re moving. They have every shape and size box you could possibly need. I bought a few boxes and they threw in a couple free rolls of packing tape. The prices are cheaper than you’ll find at U-​Haul or an office supply store.

All I needed was one box. Ended up buying more then I needed. I don’t even remember how much I spent.
This place is great. Staff is fast and friendly.
My trip should of only taken 5 minutes tops. Why did it take 30 minutes?
The staff will have you laughing crying. All a bunch of joksters. Plus they were talking about subjects that keep my interest. That’s a sign of great guest service.
I will definitely use them for my moving needs in the near future.

Friendliest guys working at the Anchor Box, with loads of experience, ready to facilitate your request for unusual or common size boxes. They even throw in a free tape if you purchase more than $ 10.00. They were half the price for a 15×18 box sold by Kinkos or Mail Boxes Etc. Check them out. You will be satisfied by service and price.
