Cheap boxes can be obtained from a variety of sources depending on the need, such as shipping or moving. Here are some of the best places to get cheap boxes:
- Online retailers like Amazon and specialty packaging suppliers such as Uline and Packagingsupplies.com offer a wide range of box sizes with options for bulk purchasing at low prices.
- Large shipping companies (USPS, FedEx, UPS, DHL) often provide free boxes if you use their shipping services.
- Big box retailers and home improvement stores like Target, Walmart, Staples, Home Depot, and Lowes carry affordable boxes both in-store and online.
- Moving supply stores like U-Haul offer specialized boxes and kits.
- Unexpected places include local grocery stores, liquor stores, bookstores, and community platforms such as Facebook Marketplace, BuyNothing Project, and Freecycle where people give away boxes for free or cheap.
- Online local box exchange programs and social media community groups can also be good resources for free or low-cost moving boxes.
These options cover both new and used boxes for shipping and moving at very affordable prices or even free in many cases.
