Anyone have moving boxes they want to get rid of or know where I might get some inexpensively or even better....for free?
I will be needing them immediately as my closing is set for July 29th.

You might check out by the loading dock of grocery stores and such. Often there will be dumpsters full of them.

we go through a ton of boxes. It would not be a problem to salvage 20 or 30. but I'm in LEX, would that be a problem?

call krogers, mcdonalds and other commercial places. if your around lex i can hook you up with ecampus. you can get as many as you need and they are made for heavy books.

Lex is NO PROBLEM!!! I would be eternally grateful!
Rags or RRO, what do I need to do to get some of these wonderful boxes?
I called Kroger but they said you come in from 7-9 on stock days & just pick up what they have off the floor???? I thought that was pretty strange.

did you think they would be floating on air or something?

thats how most places do it dig. remind me two days or so before and i will call and ask that some be held for you. then you just have to go pick them up.

i thought they would be out back by the loading dock...not lying around on the floor of the store.
