Moving House - Where can I get cheap cardboard boxes?

Argos do 'moving kits' not sure of the price though.

Have you tried asking on freecycle? I saw some offered on my newsletter about a week ago.

I did this when I moved a short while ago, had plenty and in the end ended up with too many so I passed them onto a friend who was also moving. As I have unpacked I have re offered them on my new freecycle

Use a removal firm. They'll provide them foc.

We used double-thickness corrugated cardboard boxes that OHs Mum saved for us from the clothes shop where she works. We had a variety of sizes right upto big chest boxes. When we finished with them they went into the skip round the back of the shop to be recycled as they usually would have been. So if you know anyone who works in a clothes shop i'd ask them.

Went to my local Homebase this morning, they have a large rack full of empty boxes - "take what you want"

Maybe local hospitals.

I get some good sized ones from Costco - do you know anyone with a card?

Although mine were near the cafe at the exit, so maybe you could just ask and see if they would give you some, with or without a members card?

When I moved I got some smaller wine boxes from local off licence and some other boxes from tesco-I also asked friends and family to save me any boxes they might acquire. hth

Hi,
I've just found out that my work is going to pay for my boxes etc because I'm relocating paying for stuff isn't a problem now.

I suppose I'll need strong boxes, tape and bubble wrap, etc. Can anyone point me in the right direction of where I can buy this kind of stuff?

Thanks
