I'm moving soon and I need a deal on some cardboard storage boxes. These things can get pretty expensive. Anyone know which stores have the best prices? I'm in the Bay Area.

thanks!

Ya just get there EARLY in the morning because companys bail cardboard up. We actually get good money for a bail of cardboard. I am a grocery store manager and I usually don't save any boxes unless someone calls me and asks for them.

Heck the cardboard is worth so much we have to keep them inside now because some idiot started stealing them late at night. Still like to know how he got them into the back of his pickup...but oh well. :)

Call your local liquor store and ask them to save you boxes. They're a great size for books and heavy things, and usually have handles cut in the side for ease of carrying.

Pretty inexpensive if you buy a package of 15 or so. I got some not too long ago to help me move and they were awesome. Also if you can store them somewhere you will have boxes for the next time you move.
