Which moving kit do I need?

There are three kits, one per house size: the 1–2 bedroom kit with 26 boxes, the 3 bedroom kit with 42 boxes and the 4–5 bedroom kit with 58 boxes. Each also carries the tape, paper and marker people forget until packing day. If you are between two sizes, the calculator settles it in about a minute.
