Here is Shaen showing the GO BOX website and blog. There is so much good information on the website and blog to help make moving and storage easier.

On March 2, 2013, GO BOX was at the Canadian Home Builders' Association, 7th Annual Kamloops House and Home Show. There was over fifty companies displaying their products and services. This home show features businesses involved with building and renovating. GO BOX can help the builder and renovator by storing possessions while the new room or home is under construction. For more information please read Renovations and Your Site Storage.

This was the first home show GO BOX has ever done. We really enjoyed talking to the people that had never heard of GO BOX and didn't know what we do. The home show was a blast! The second best part of the home show was learning about all the other businesses in Kamloops. Here are just a few of the people and businesses we meet at the home show.

I had an interesting talk with Ron Popoff about greywater use in the TNRD and the City of Kamloops. Many people are surprised to hear that the GO BOX site has a extensive permaculture garden which produces food for our family. This year we want to develop a forest garden.

If you would like to learn more about how GO BOX has taken an old mine site and transformed it into a food producing garden please see:
