ProductsMadison Green Box offers a low environmental impact alternative to traditional cardboard moving boxes. We rent sturdy, plastic boxes which will be reused hundreds of times during their lifespan before being fully recycled. This makes for a much smaller carbon footprint than the cardboard alternative. Our Eco-friendly, reusable plastic moving boxes, wardrobes, and other moving supplies will make your move easier on you and the environment. We deliver and pick up the supplies. Madison Green Box is convenient, affordable, and green. Our business is the first of its kind in Wisconsin. |

PhilosophyPersonally and as a business we prioritize buying locally. It is the right thing to do; it feels good, relationships are built, and a sense of community is developed and nurtured. The local businesses we frequent often offer unique services and atmospheres. Our lifestyles have been enriched by simply thinking and looking outside the "big" box. We are currently launching our new green business and are choosing local every step of the way to get us started on the right foot. Hopefully our efforts will come full circle. We expect that our green business will directly sustain the local environment and in turn help the local economy prosper. |

HistoryMadison Green Box was created by Lori A. Carlson and Michael J. Bleker in the spring of 2011. Lori is a retired Audiologist and Michael is a Real Estate Professional. Lori's passion of a "greener" lifestyle and Michael's professional experience crossed paths to help grow this idea. We decided to take action after many years of frustration seeing residents purchase, gather, and dispose of cardboard boxes after one use, while moving from one home to another. Our goal was to create a company that provides a highly sustainable alternative to cardboard moving boxes. |
