BlackLeaf,

These are guys are epic! We have used CaterBox since the beginning of our business back in 2013 and have never even looked for anyone else. The correx boxes are perfect for our glassware storage and transport needs within our events company. The correx boxes are easy to assemble, stackable for easy storage, great for transportation with the rigid handles and keep glassware safe and clean, especially with the added lids. Better yet the boxes are also now brandable! The team (especially Conor) are always very friendly and helpful when we call up with orders or enquiries too. Great company. We couldn't recommend anyone else for your crockery and glassware storage needs!

We’ve bought from this company twice now as our stock is getting bigger and bigger and their boxes are just perfect for our Glass beaded charger plates. Highly recommend this company.

Gareth Stafford,

Had a very pleasant experience buying from Caterbox. Conor was very knowledgeable and helpful in finding the right product for my business needs. Will definitely be using Catorbox again. Thanks guys.

Scott Mabot,

Placed an order with Caterbox and we are delighted with the items. Best customer service ever!! We received a call to check all was ok with our order. We had actually ordered the wrong boxes (our fault). We were offered the option of returning them straight away without us even asking, but the boxes were such good quality we kept them anyway for other items. We've already placed 2 more orders and we will be using them now on for all of our storage needs.

David Wall,

Super storage! Easy to buy and visited in person to collect my order. Very welcoming, complete with a personal tutorial on how to put my boxes together. Great product and great people!

Greig Rankine,

Ordered bespoke storage boxes for use within a laboratory environment. Highly efficient service and delivery, boxes are robust and precisely what was required and advertised. Will use this company again.

David Lee,

Contacted Caterbox looking for a replacement divider to cut down on the substantial amount of cardboard we use. They were prompt, courteous and very happy to help. We only ordered the minimum amount (10 dividers) yet they treated us as if we were their most valued customer. Will definitely use them in the future. A nod to Conor who was extremely helpful. I highly recommend Caterbox for your partition/divider needs.

Rakesh Desai, A-Z Reliant Catering Equipment Hire

Excellent service backed up with a real knowledge of their products. We only use them now and nobody else. Nik and Rebecca really make you feel like your custom is important and show it by giving a service which is second to none. Since using them our business not only looks a lot more professional, the products have helped us to secure a lot more customers both private and corporate.

Paul Taylor, The IMC Group Limited

Adam Wilson, Nando's

Very good communication from the start, items delivered quicker than expected. Items ordered were of a very high quality and the price was the best I had seen online. Will be ordering again soon, and recommending to my colleagues.

Fiona Parker, Stamford Tableware Hire Ltd

Thank you for your email and for getting the vinyl labels printed and sent so promptly. Also the china storage boxes are great. I especially like the cutlery boxes, very strong! As always, thank you for an excellent service, much appreciated!

Maison De Fleurs , South Park Studios

As an international florist we are constantly on the hunt for bespoke items from across the globe for our high profile parties. Many of these products are extremely fragile and come with a hefty price tag therefore it is of the utmost importance that they arrive intact no matter where the final destination may be! For peace of mind we use Caterbox for all our storage needs. They make the whole process absolutely effortless and provide a product we can rely on to give maximum protection and longevity. Nik and his team are always extremely helpful and go above and beyond to cater to our requirements. We are constantly pushing them to deliver impossible deadlines and somehow they always manage to achieve them and more!

Steve, Big Steve's Catering

Hi Caterbox Team Nik & Emma, I just wanted to say a massive thank you for your professionalism and all of your help with the order. It is so refreshing to come across (rare) individuals who are passionate about their work and haven’t forgotten old fashioned customer service. Thank you again Nik/Emma and we will continue to use your services as we grow :-)
