–Fran L. 3/18/2021 7:22:33 PM

Hello Fran, The Picture Packer is good along with our LG Picture box. https://www.uhaul.com/MovingSupplies/Boxes/Mirror-Picture-Boxes/Large-Mirror-Box/?id=8696 I would also recommend a furniture paper pad and shrink wrap. Thank you

–Frank 3/22/2021 8:40:07 AM

–Lynn Strong 10/24/2020 4:42:15 PM

–Frank 10/26/2020 8:54:26 AM

Can these be used to safely ship a glass framed picture?

–Cathy 6/24/2020 3:41:45 PM

Hi, Cathy! In addition to the Picture Packer Kit, we also recommend purchasing a material that you can fill empty space in the shipping box with to keep the picture from shifting. This could be crumpled Packing Paper or Enviro-Bubble. I hope that is helpful!

–Savannah 7/1/2020 2:23:57 PM

Could this be used on the corners of a flat screen TV?

–Michelle Pickrell 6/12/2020 9:03:52 AM

Hi, Michelle! Yes, as long as the flat screen is no thicker than 2.2 inches. Thank you!

–Savannah 6/12/2020 10:19:43 AM

How thin of an item/frame will it fit? - I want to use it on a piece of plate glass that is approximately 1/8" - 3/16" thick

–S 5/30/2020 11:41:19 AM

Hello! Our Picture Packer Kit is suitable for your piece of plate glass. I hope that is helpful!

–Savannah 6/3/2020 3:42:45 PM

Can I put 2 pictures back-to-back in one picture packer kit? One frame is 1" deep and the other is 7/8" deep. Pictures themselves will fit in one box but need to protect corners. Thank you.

–Dale 2/24/2020 2:42:23 PM

Hi, Dale! You could use 1 picture packer kit for 2 pictures if they both fit, but we'd recommend putting some kind of material such as Enviro-Bubble between the pictures to keep them from damaging one another. Thank you!

–Savannah 2/25/2020 7:25:54 AM

Will these picture packer foam corners fit into your 4" thick Mirror/Picture box? Could they work on a round mirror at all?

–Lisa 1/29/2020 11:42:23 AM

Hello, Lisa! The Picture Packer Kit is compatible with both our Mirror & Picture Box and our Large Mirror & Picture Box. The kit will not work with a round mirror. For packing a round mirror, we recommend using Enviro-Bubble and/or Furniture Pads to wrap and protect the mirror before placing it into a box. I hope that is helpful!

–Savannah 1/8/2019 1:00:10 PM

Is a mirror box adjustable for depth? From 4” to 6” deep.

–Bonnie Maclennan 10/8/2018 4:09:55 PM

Hi, Bonnie! No, our mirror boxes are not adjustable. We do offer our Flat Panel TV Kit which has a depth of 6" and could be used for a mirror or piece of artwork just like our mirror boxes. I hope that is helpful!

–Tom 6/28/2015 10:52:51 PM

The corners are solid styrofoam, but the strap that attaches them to the frame is adjustable.

–Joseph 8/31/2015 11:12:19 AM

What size is the box? Are there different sizes and prices?

–Patrick 6/4/2015 7:03:48 PM

Sorry Patrick, this is a Picture Packer Kit which only contains the styrofoam corners and only comes in 1 size.

If you would like additional protection for your picture beyond the Picture Packer Kit, you can pair it with either the U-Haul Mirror Box or the U-Haul Large Mirror Box for optimal protection!

–Joseph 7/2/2015 12:26:20 PM

How much extra length and width does this add to the picture? I have a picture 42.5" wide - will it fit in the large mirror box with this kit? And this kit works with mirrors too, right?

–Anne 1/27/2015 8:53:34 PM

These corner protectors (kit) will increase the width and height of the picture approximately 2". This kit does work for mirrors as well. As long as the picture/mirror is not more than 2.2" thick, this kit will work with the large mirror box. Thanks.

–Ronald 1/28/2015 7:52:14 AM

How do you tighten the strap? The strap is loose on the box, and the directions are not very clear how to tighten the strap. What do you mean by the loose end of the strap? Neither end is loose, once you fold the plastic tongue through the loop on the strap.

–Peter Vatne 10/13/2014 4:21:53 PM

If you can't make the strap work using the instructions provided on the product web page, I think we may have a situation where something may be wrong with the strap we sent you. Before we send you another one, please call us at 1.866.277.6855. Please be logged in to the product page on UHaul.com when you call. Thanks.

–Ronald 10/14/2014 8:28:59 AM

What are the corner protector pieces made of? -Cardboard?

–MoBra 7/23/2014 4:37:10 PM

Our moving supplies program manager writes: "The corner pieces are styrofoam."

–Ronald 7/24/2014 10:03:10 AM

Is there a video showing how to tighten the strap?

–PCMorris 3/12/2014 9:14:39 AM

No, sorry. We do not have a video instruction.

–Ronald 4/22/2014 9:20:24 AM

Can the strap be reused?

–Mike 2/11/2014 7:38:07 PM
