    Mcdonalds gave us about 50 boxes we just had to go every few days after their deliveries. More than happy to give away and very strong too! (fries ones were the best!)

    Local shops might be happy to give you some boxes after deliveries - I regularly had customers asking when I worked in a bookshop and it was never a problem. Saves them recycling/collection costs!

    I hope you're not confusing the free 'moving in' box (which is just one box of freebies) with a full home-moving kit.....
