About

Our founder and Chief Eco-Agent, Lily Tran, is a long-time resident of New York (nearly 30 years) and has lived in neighborhoods all over Manhattan and Brooklyn. Lily is a no-nonsense, efficient New Yorker. She understands the hassles of moving – on average, she has moved once every two to three years before settling into her current home in Carroll Gardens. Like other New Yorkers on the go, she has become an expert at assembling cardboard boxes, packing belongings, hiring movers and posting free moving boxes on Craigslist. She is eager to help New Yorkers move cheaper, faster, and easier while reducing waste. Prior to establishing BoxUp, Lily spent eight years working in the financial services industry, Lily decided to pursue a more meaningful way of living by earning a Master of Science in Sustainability Management from Columbia University. Her quest took her to volunteer positions with clean energy projects at the African Development Bank in Tunisia, and E+Co in Tanzania.

Pedro Rolo, our Eco Operations Manager and husband of Lily, recently moved to New York from Lisbon, Portugal. He loves riding the subway, running in Prospect Park, shopping at the farmer’s market and cooking up a storm. Previously, Pedro owned and operated Loreto Design, a graphic design company in Lisbon. He is obsessed with details and customer service. When Pedro isn’t delivering boxes, he is busy with his artwork.

Testimonials

“This company is EXCELLENT! The crates are so much easier and faster to pack than boxes ... especially using the glass and dish dividers. I had a ton of supplements and spices/herbs and oils and bath products in glass bottles because I hate plastic and they fit so well in the glass dividers. There's room to throw in light things on top. Lily could not have been nicer or better with her communication. Everything was clean and both delivery and pickup were at the times we set. Nothing broken. No big mess to cart away after moving. Loved them!”

Briana R moved in April 2014.
