Dont know where else to put this, but im looking for some cardboard boxes to help me move in a few weeks. Every store I go to to get them free doesnt do it, and so didnt know about the off chance someone on here had some boxes they needed to get rid of or knows where I can get some. thanks.

check liquor stores. Everybody I've moved in the past 10 years or so has had to get boxes from liquor stores. Yes you'll get bad looks loading your Jim Beam box onto the truck.

That explains why our former associate pastor for children's ministries had so many liquor boxes when she moved from seminary in Richmond (I just figured she used to be an alcoholic).

I actually just found out you can get free boes from USPS, so I should be getting a 25 pack of 12"x12"x8" boxes this week, which is good for all of my books

also of note, I continued reading the thread I found this on and it sounds like a great prank. some boxes allow you to order a max of 700 and you can deliver them in increments, so a couple of people on there have ordered 700 and have 10 a day delivered to a friends house for 70 days straight

Appliance stores work well, too. They normally put them out back and don't mind if you take them.

Banana boxes from grocery stores are good.
