The boxes are free, you can do with them as you see fit. They have many different sizes.

Don't they give them for free assuming you are going to use their shipping services? Also, I dont think you can walk into a post office and get a few hundred boxes....

True and true

True, but you can use them for anything theoretically. And while you can't just walk in and get as many as you want, I've ordered tens of thousands from their website for free.

So here's the truth. My father ships ups fed ex and dhl daily. More ups than the. Other 2. Try calling them and set up an acct (if ur shipping with them) i don't know specifics to be honest but i know we get boxes and everything for free - a lot of times there useless to us but call em -

elibeli2 · « **Reply #15 on:** December 14, 2012, 01:06:25 PM »

PM I will give you details of a really good company...

elikay · « **Reply #16 on:** December 14, 2012, 01:44:32 PM »

IME you can shop around, but there are some really good deals to be found on eBay.

I usually just buy boxes and shipping supplies from Uline.com

They have a massive variety and box sizes.

Also to me in NJ I always get it the next day after ordering.

USPS Priority Mail gives free boxes - but there is a disclaimer on the box that says to be used for USPS only...

Besides that its "stealing" I personally don't think it looks professional to ship with a different service and USPS boxes

For international Fedex or DHL discounted prices PM me.

I also get discounted Fedex Express shipping, and somewhat discounted on ground. (Its hard to get big discounts, as the prices are already pretty low)

Uline, while by far the best service, does not have the cheapest prices.
