What is ROC Tote & Go?

ROC Tote & Go rents sturdy plastic moving totes in Monroe County, NY. Totes are delivered, you pack and move, and they are picked up when you are done. No cardboard boxes to buy, tape, and throw away.

What does the software do?

  • Quoting by service radius. Customers enter an address and get a price based on distance, without a phone call.
  • Stripe deposits. A deposit is collected at booking and refunded when the totes come back.
  • NFC-tagged totes. Each tote has an NFC tag. Tap it with a phone to log what you packed, then tap again at the new place to see what is inside without opening it.

Why NFC matters here

NFC turns a stack of identical totes into something searchable. It also makes moving more accessible: customers with low vision can tap a tote and have the phone read the contents aloud instead of squinting at a handwritten label. Large-print room labels are available too.

What it shows

Cheap hardware plus simple software can remove real friction from a small business. NFC tags cost cents each. See custom software development for how similar ideas apply to inventory, equipment, and job tracking.
