We’re moving home soon… Any suggestions on where to get boxes cheap?
Went to bunnings but they want $4 each for some flimsy shit cardboard boxes.
LPT: Buy the big plastic tubs from Bunnings and then return them once you’re done moving. Half their tubs are scratched and scuffed anyways so I’m sure they don’t mind
Hadn’t thought of that, might need to keep some of the stuff packed up for over a year though, so don’t know whether bunnings will let you return after that much time.
Have a chat to your local pet supply store, like Petbarn or similar. They go through plenty of appropriate sized boxes.
I’ve seen people post in local Facebook groups asking for moving boxes and they usually get a pretty good response.
Also ask on local freecycle email groups
Bunnings stores have a bunch of free boxes near the checkouts. They do have a 2 box per person limit though so you might need to make a couple trips or have some friends.
Alternatively, most bottleshops should have a ton of small but strong boxes available.
