MakeSpace and media company Mschf collaborated on 'ExBox,' an all-new on-demand storage service that helps people deal with some of the logistics of a breakup, particularly what to do with the physical objects following a split with a partner.
Processing the emotions that come with a breakup can be all the more challenging when one is surrounded by items that remind one of a former partner but ExBox has the potential to speed up the task of removing an ex's personal possessions from a living space. The on-demand service gives users a box that can be picked up and stored with ease, helping to simplify the moving process.
When it comes to starting the storage process, users take a quiz about the state of their relationship—the worse it is, the more money one can potentially save.
