Where can I buy cardboard boxes individually ?
I am about to sell a very good hi fi, made from various 'separates' so will need a few boxes.
I intend double boxing each item, using bubble wrap and polystyrene peanuts.
I usually just get boxes from the nearest supermarket,but for these I think it would be easier just to order what I need. OK,I might end up paying a pound or so, per box (maybe even more) but it will make my life easier.Anyway,if each item sells for perhaps £150 - £200 the cost of the box will not matter.
thanks

I use ODL Packaging. They are very quick and do good quality.

It looks like the boxes are expensive but guessing for new boxes not going to be cheap from anywhere.
You could also try filing boxes or moving boxes. Do a Google search for them and see what you find.0 -
Also consider your local Makros if you have one or indeed any local storage companies.0

Storage companies arew where I get mine from as and when I need them of a certain shape/size..
But generally I just use supermarket ones.0
