Moving boxes have a universal problem.

You packed everything carefully. But on moving day, and every day after, no one knows which box anything is in.

"Where's the coffee maker?"
It's in one of fourteen kitchen boxes, and you sealed them all. Every box gets torn open until someone finds it.
Half-labeled boxes
"Kitchen: misc" tells you nothing. You wrote that at midnight on pack day and now neither you nor the movers know what's inside.
Family asking you nonstop
You packed everything, so you're the one everyone asks — all day on moving day and for weeks after.
BoxQR solves all three.
Every box gets a QR code linked to a complete, searchable contents list. Anyone in the family scans from their own phone. No more being the only one who knows where anything is.

How BoxQR works for movers.

Four steps per box. Takes about two minutes. Works before, during, and after the move.

1

Create a box in BoxQR

Name it: "Master Bedroom Clothes," "Office Desk Stuff," "Kids' Toys." A specific name now saves ten minutes of searching later.

2

Snap a photo of the contents

Before you seal the box, take one photo of everything inside. BoxQR's AI scans the image and lists what it sees. Review, edit if needed, and confirm. No typing required.

3

Print and attach the QR label

BoxQR generates a printable label sheet in Avery-compatible formats. Stick the QR label on the outside of the box. Now it knows what it contains.

4

Scan or search anytime

On moving day or weeks later: scan the QR code with any phone to see what's inside, or type an item name to search across every box. No app download needed.

BoxQR for every stage of your move.

A moving box inventory app that's useful once isn't worth setting up. BoxQR is built for the whole moving process. It stays useful long after.

📋Pre-move purge
See what you actually have before you pack it. BoxQR helps you decide what to keep, donate, or toss before it ends up in a sealed box.
📦Packing
Label as you pack. Each box gets a name, a photo-based contents list, and a QR code before it gets sealed. No more mystery boxes.
🚚Moving day
Movers handle the boxes. You and your family handle where things go, because you can see inside every box without opening it.
🏠Unpacking
Unpack by priority. Search for what you need first and open only those boxes. Everyone unpacks at their own pace without asking you what's where.
🗄️Organizing the new home
Boxes that don't get unpacked right away (garage, attic, storage room) stay searchable. Useful for spring cleaning and beyond.
📅Future moves
Your BoxQR account travels with you. When you move again, your boxes are already organized. Starting over takes minutes, not a weekend.

AI does the hard part. You just snap a photo.

Two features that handle the most tedious parts of building a moving box inventory.

Point. Snap. Done.

Open a box, take one photo of the contents. BoxQR's AI scans the image and lists what it sees: kitchen items, tools, clothes, whatever's inside. Review it, confirm, seal the box. No typing required.

Available on Free & Pro

Find anything instantly.

Type "blender" or "the HDMI cables" or "kids' Halloween costumes" — BoxQR searches every box and tells you exactly which one to open. Works from any phone, with no app download.

Available on all plans

Together, these two features turn what should be a chaotic moving week into a manageable one. Your home stays organized for years after the move.

Stop being the family's personal GPS during unpacking.

One Pro account. Everyone in your household can search and scan.

You packed everything, so you're the one everyone asks. BoxQR changes that. Share your boxes with anyone in the household (partner, kids, helpers) so they can search and scan from their own phones during unpacking. You set it up once, you control who can see what, and then everyone finds their own stuff.

You control access
Invite family members and set permissions. Read-only or full edit access per box. You decide who can see what.
Everyone gets their own access
No shared passwords. Each person has their own free BoxQR account and sees only what you've shared with them.
Share with anyone via link
Need movers or helpers to see what's in a box? Share a public link. Anyone can view without a BoxQR account.

Common questions about moving with BoxQR.

Everything you need to know before your move.

BoxQR lets you label every moving box with a QR code linked to a searchable contents list. On moving day, anyone can scan a box with their phone or search by item name to find exactly which box to open. No more tearing through boxes looking for the coffee maker.

Yes. One BoxQR Pro account covers your entire household. You can share specific boxes with family members so each person can search and scan from their own phone during unpacking. Only the account owner needs a Pro subscription.

For moving boxes, we recommend 2-inch by 2-inch labels or larger. They scan reliably from a few feet away, which matters when boxes are stacked or stored. BoxQR generates label sheets in standard Avery sizes (5160, 5163, 5168 and others) and supports thermal label printers like Dymo and Rollo. Smaller address-style labels work for bins and smaller boxes.

BoxQR works independently of your moving company. You label your own boxes before the movers arrive. Movers handle the physical boxes; BoxQR handles the contents tracking. You can also share a public link for any box so movers or helpers can view contents without a BoxQR account. Moving companies interested in offering BoxQR to clients can learn about the partner program.

About one to two minutes per box. You name the box, take one photo of the contents, let BoxQR's AI identify the items, and print the QR code label. Most people batch the printing at the end of pack day rather than after each box. A whole-house move usually takes 30 to 60 minutes of labeling time spread across the packing process.

The best way to organize moving boxes is to give each box a specific name and a complete contents list before it gets sealed. BoxQR makes this practical by letting AI identify items from a photo, then generates a QR code label you attach to the box. You can also add a location tag so you know where each box should go in the new home.

Use both a written room label on the outside and a QR code linked to the full contents list. The written label tells movers where to put the box. The QR code lets anyone scan and see every item inside without opening it. BoxQR generates both in one step.

Yes. BoxQR's search covers every box in your account. Type an item name and BoxQR shows which box it's in. You can also scan any QR label directly to see that box's full contents list. The boxes labeled before your move remain searchable indefinitely.

Yes. BoxQR has a free plan that includes up to 10 boxes, 5 free printed QR label sheets, and AI photo scanning for up to 5 boxes. For a full move with more boxes, Pro costs $10 per month or $100 per year and covers unlimited boxes, unlimited labels, and your whole household.

No app required. BoxQR labels are standard QR codes. The iPhone Camera app and Android Google Lens both scan them by default and open the contents in your browser. There is also a BoxQR app for iOS if you want a faster scanning experience and offline access, and a PWA you can install from the website.

A common system is to number boxes sequentially (Box 1, Box 2, Box 3) and keep a master inventory list, but this falls apart when you have 60 boxes and need to find the coffee grinder. BoxQR replaces the master list with a searchable database. Each box gets a unique QR code, which works like a permanent number, plus a name you choose like "Kitchen Counter" or "Master Closet." You can search by item name across all your boxes at once, no spreadsheet required.

Start with the boxes you'll need access to first in the new home: kitchen essentials, toiletries, bedding, kids' clothes, and chargers. Label these with BoxQR before the rest so you can find them within minutes of arrival. Then label the rest as you go. The boxes labeled last (decorations, garage stuff, off-season items) are also the ones you don't need urgently.

They keep working. The QR codes stay attached to the boxes, and the contents list stays in your BoxQR account. Boxes that don't get unpacked right away (garage, attic, off-season storage) stay searchable indefinitely. When you move again in the future, your boxes are already organized.

Yes. Your boxes and contents are private by default and only visible to you and anyone you explicitly share with. We don't sell or share your data. You can also mark individual boxes as public if you want to share contents via QR scan with movers, helpers, or anyone without an account. You can delete your account and all your data at any time.

Start your move organized. Stay organized after.

Free to start. Set up your first box in minutes and get 5 QR label sheets to print at home. No credit card required.
