Moving Boxes

[michelle]

Moving soon and I could definitely use some. Lots of car parts to move around and then all my stuff at my apartment (clothes, kitchen stuff, you know the drill).

Anybody have some or work for a company that wouldn't miss some larger boxes?

[TURTLE]

i've got a bunch that i was saving for our move, so as long as you can get them back to me by july, i think you can use them... lmk

Oh definitely. I can use the few I have for parts (that way if they get dirty, it's okay) and then use any clean ones for the other important stuff in my apartment (and all of Adam's diecast cars he has collected since birth). He collects way too much stuff.

Where are you in Oconomowoc?

The produce dept in grocery stores give them away for free. Just ask. I used to work in one, and their boxes were the best I have ever seen. Most of them were twice as thick and really good sizes. Call them and tell them that you'll pick up some boxes a day later. They well save them, but don't wait like 5 days to pick them up, or they'll be pissed. Also, you better have a big car to fit them all in.

Why barrow someone elses boxes?? Get your own for free!!

:rolf I've moved so many times I went out and bought a fleet of totes... They are great to have around, and come in handy for future moves... :thumbsup

Moving again in a couple months and this time into a house, so hopefully it's the last time. I'll need boxes. I'll check with the local grocery stores, but figured I would bump this and see if anybody has any or works at a company that has extras they just throw away/recycle.

Thanks!

I can ask that any boxes at my work are saved, they range from file boxes to odd shaped one's. Perfect for lamps, clothes and odd sized stuff.

Let me know I'll ask that they stuff the boxes into each other :thumbsup

[michelle]

Yeah, that would be very helpful!

Since you seem to move a lot, buy some Rubbermaid Roughneck storage totes. I probably have 100 of the damn things. They're nearly indestructible (I even have some transfer cases in some), survive cold well, and when not in use stack nicely. They're like $6/each. Used to be able to catch them on sale 4/$11 but haven't seen that price in a while. I label each one with a 3.5x5 card and tape.

Much more handy, are stackable, and have handles. Granted, I probably have at least $300 in them but they last forever. And I have a lot of shit.

The 18 gallon ones are pretty much the perfect size. The smaller 12 gallon ones are great for cleaning supplies. They make bigger ones and those work great for bedding/blankets.

This should be the last time I move, so I am looking for temporary stuff that I can recycle afterwards.

I did want to pick up some after Christmas since the red and green ones are often on sale, but I forgot.

+1 for Banana boxes, double wall and heavy fricken duty.

[TURTLE]

i've still got the large stash... lmk if you'd like some

[awsomeears]

I just put up some Notes at work and have a good 10 boxes already stacked nicely, when are you going to start packing ?

My work is located in Oak Creek

If you do buy some rubbermaid containers head over to HOBO, you will not find them any cheaper then that place !!!!!!!!!

[michelle]

I'll start packing the non-essentials as soon as I have some decent size boxes. Do you think you will get anymore or would it be best to pick those up this week?


Josh - Are you ever out this way anymore?

[TURTLE]

i am when i am needed to be... ;)

I was thinking give it till next mid-week and there should be plenty there, then again work is slow so the boxes may come slower.

I'll let you know :thumbsup

Appreciate it - thanks!

I have a box attached to my F150. I am guessing you will be needing to use that box at some point or another. We can discuss pricing options later.:rolf

I would offer babysitting, but we both know that will never happen.

[Slow Joe]

If you're still in need of boxes, one of my friends works at a place that makes boxes... I can see if he's still got the hook up...
