Upcycling Program

Our upcycling program makes moving more meaningful by arranging donations to the Salvation Army. With every FlatRate move, we provide our customers with extra boxes free of charge so they can separate items that they wish to donate. After the move is complete, FlatRate will deliver the UpCycle boxes to Salvation Army directly.

FlatRate in Puerto Rico

Supplies for Puerto Rico

Giving back to Puerto Rico after Hurricane Maria, our team of employees transported items and supplies in our own trucks on a weekly basis to help with hurricane relief efforts. With the help of JetBlue planes that weekly traveled from a donation center to Puerto Rico, FlatRate had the amazing experience and opportunity to help thousands of people after the tragedy.
