Wanted: Removal Boxes

Posted on
  • Greasy and I have to move and would be grateful to anyone who has any of the folding cardboard boxes the removal guys use.

  • We've go some for ya... You'll need to come get them pronto tho' (before Wednesday preferably), we need the space back...

  • Tonight after beers?

  • you might be able to get some from Seriously wolf as well - we just moved him.

  • I have a load of those stackable crates used for transporting groceries if thats any good? personally found them better for moving as they werent too awkward or heavy. I have to check if they're still in the basement though.

  • I dont have any boxes, but if you guys need help with moving let me know.

  • freecycle is a good place to get packing boxes, i've found.

  • TBTRN - its for short term storage (2-3 months) would that work?

    Oh I have access to a car to pick these up if needed

  • And gumtree! I'll look

  • I won't be at the pub tonight, but you're very welcome to pop over for them... We're out of packing tape, so you'll probably need a car cuz they'll be a bit unwieldy... Not sure how many we have but there'll be at least 10 or so...

  • Wicked Cheers Lil

    may be useful as well, you need double walled boxes.

  • I remember when I moved from one place to another in York, we'd go to the shops in the high street near closing time and asked them for boxes for moving.

    Yeah, record stores, HMV + Fopp are good for that, all the boxes are decent sized, but strong enough to take plenty of weight.

  • there are a few computer guys on here. maybe they have pc and laptop boxes in there office.

  • OR OR
    I could empty the boxes that hold my dad's 25years worth of car magazines and also get rid of my aunt's stuff here, then I should have lots of boxes... B]

  • last time we moved we spoke to the veg sellers on Dalston market, they had plenty sturdy boxes to give away

    Sure, thats fine, I wont be needing them for a while. Im in Homerton if thats any good for you?

  • Bump!

    I'm also moving and in need of a few of these. Has anyone in the East End got a few of these kicking about?

  • I think Argos sell the boxes, although freebies are far better.

  • i have a tyre box? :/

  • most big retailers would let you take boxes away, saves on their aviva bill.

  • I have a cricket box, and valuable crown jewels to put it over........... ;-)))))))
