Our Story

DuraBins is a woman-owned business proudly serving Calgary since 2025. We started with a clear goal: take the stress and waste out of moving. From day one, our mission has been simple—create a smarter, cleaner, and more reliable way to make life’s transitions easier.

Why We Started

Moving shouldn’t feel overwhelming. It also shouldn’t leave behind piles of cardboard that collapse under pressure and end up in the landfill. We asked ourselves a question: Why rely on flimsy cardboard boxes when a stronger, eco-friendly solution exists? That single thought turned into our mission, and from it, DuraBins was born.

What We Believe

At DuraBins, we care deeply—about the environment, about your moving experience, and about making life easier. Our reusable moving bins are sturdy, stackable, and designed to handle real-life moves. They’re more than containers. Every bin represents less waste, more time saved, and greater peace of mind during a major transition.

Who We Help

No matter what stage of life you’re in, we’re here to help. Maybe you’re moving into your first apartment, upgrading to a larger home, or downsizing after many years. Whatever the case, we know how stressful moving can feel. That’s why we created a reliable, eco-friendly moving box rental service right here in Calgary—so you can stay organized, protect your belongings, and skip the hassle of cardboard.

More Than Boxes

DuraBins is about more than bins. It’s about people, care, and making small choices that create a big impact. By renting reusable moving supplies, you’re not only making your move easier—you’re also helping reduce waste and support a more sustainable community.

Thank You

Thank you for trusting us with one of life’s biggest milestones. We’re proud to be part of your journey and honored to help you move forward—smarter, simpler, and more sustainably.


With gratitude,
The DuraBins Team

How DuraBins was Created

After a lifetime of frequent moves, I grew frustrated with the endless hassle of cardboard boxes, flimsy tape, and wasted time. I wanted a simpler, more sustainable solution. That’s why I started Durabins — a plastic moving bin company designed to take the stress out of moving. Our reusable bins are sturdy, stackable, and delivered right to your door, making moving cleaner, easier, and more efficient.

Proud Canadian

“Canadian owned and operated, our business was founded in Calgary by a native Calgarian. After time spent living abroad, we’ve come to truly appreciate all that this city has to offer. There is no place we’d rather be—Calgary is, and will always be, home.”

A Chance to Make a Difference!

We saw a need in our community for a better, more sustainable moving solution. Traditional cardboard boxes were wasteful, flimsy, and a hassle to deal with. That’s when we stepped in. By offering sturdy, reusable plastic moving bins, we created a smarter alternative—one that saves time, reduces waste, and makes moving easier for everyone. Whether you’re relocating your home or office, our bins are designed to simplify the process and support a cleaner, greener future.

Plans for the Future

We’re committed to growing sustainably and finding more eco-friendly moving solutions, and enhancing customer convenience with our moving bins. In the near future, we plan to introduce new rental options and partner with local movers and realtors to offer a seamless moving experience. Thanks for taking the time to learn more about us!
