Halloween is a time for creativity, imagination, and a little bit of magic and at TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® Dallas, we love bringing all three to life with our annual Boxtumes. This year, we had the exciting opportunity to showcase our latest designs on Fox 4’s The Ten, sharing how we transform ordinary moving boxes into extraordinary Halloween costumes. Our 2025 Boxtumes included a pirate ship, a dinosaur head, and a fun zoo all designed to spark creativity and delight kids of all ages.
Each Boxtume is built with care and attention to detail. The pirate ship featured painted wood textures, sails, and room for little captains to “steer” their adventure. The dinosaur head came to life with colorful scales, big eyes, and a roar that’s friendly enough for trick-or-treaters. Our zoo Boxtume was packed with animals, enclosures, and plenty of imagination, making it a perfect interactive costume for kids to enjoy.
One of the best parts about Boxtumes is their versatility. Not all kids are ready to walk the whole trick-or-treat route, which is why our designs can easily fit strollers or wagons. Parents can set up the costume around a stroller or wagon frame, giving even the tiniest participants a chance to join the fun while staying safe and comfortable. It’s all about inclusivity and letting every child enjoy the Halloween experience.
If you missed our Fox 4 segment, you can watch it here https://www.fox4news.com/video/1727539 to see our team in action and learn how these creative Boxtumes are built from start to finish. We love sharing our process and giving families inspiration to create their own DIY costumes using everyday items, sometimes even a moving box!
For even more Boxtume ideas, be sure to check out our past creations on Instagram and on Facebook at TWO MEN AND A TRUCK Greater Dallas. Over the years, we’ve crafted everything from rockets to unicorns, fire trucks to race cars, proving that a little imagination can turn a simple box into a Halloween masterpiece.
At TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® Dallas, we’re more than movers, we’re makers of fun, builders of community, and creators of smiles. Boxtumes are just one way we love to share creativity, family fun, and a little magic with North Texas every Halloween.
