krustyballer16 Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 I'm needing cardboard boxes to ship bucket seats and fragile mj interior pieces. All of it is off shaped and lengths. I need oversized boxes and nobody has any big enough. Or at least the places I've looked and asked around at. I need a big one-minimum of 50x24x18 for the interior. I need 2-36x24x8 for door panels. And for the seats, which I think u haul might have something close, i need 24x24x24. I've got thick cardboard and 175' of bubble wrap to help bundle everything up. Anybody have any place to buy boxes or know of anything that comes in boxes this big that I could keep an eye out for? Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk
shelbyluvv Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 Make them. Go to Home Depot and buy some boxes. Cut them up and tape them back together. I do it all the time.

sinkrun Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 Medical supply stores, large shipping and moving companys around here sell used boxs cheap and body shops or my garage however your pretty far away.
krustyballer16 Posted April 3, 2018 Author Posted April 3, 2018 Stores that get stuff in boxes have no communication or just don't care. Tell them to save me boxes and they say "ok, come back Friday, we'll have a bunch." Go back Friday and nobody has any clue about saving them. I just thought about bed room furniture stores and maybe windshield places... Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk
johnj92131 Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 Water heater boxes will be about 60 x 24x24. Check with plumbing companies. Stores like Michaels for "picture frame boxes" work for door cards, etc.

krustyballer16 Posted April 4, 2018 Author Posted April 4, 2018 U-Haul ... they have it all. They don't have anything 50" long. Or at least I can't find any online...Sent from my SM-G892A using Tapatalk
NHMJXJ Posted April 4, 2018 Posted April 4, 2018 You would have to cut down a wardrobe/clothing box ... they have to be at least 50 inches and they're pretty rugged too.

strictlyxjs Posted April 10, 2018 Posted April 10, 2018 bicycle shops around here always have tons out by the curb.
1989commanche Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 I work next to a furniture store. They have all the cardboard you would ever want in big sizes. They will give you all you want to haul away.
amsuco Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 If you're wanting to make large boxes smaller, you might want to invest in a box sizer as well. I'd be lost without mine. I use the heck out of it for eBay and Amazon shipments. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F273748484678
Old man with MJ Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 See them all the time on Craigslist after people move in.

eaglescout526 Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 Go to a dealership. They are always chucking boxes of every size imaginable.
