Pasteypoms Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Hi, please can someone advise me where I can get boxes to pack and ship? X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Just look online for shipping boxes and find the best price (and quality if you want decent double walled ones). I think I used some from Seven Seas and then a batch online, book boxes and tea chest size. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 If you're having full service from a shipping company they will supply them - otherwise search on-line as suggested if you want new ones. We found a place local to us in Perth that sold 'secondhand' boxes - actually the ones we got weren't, they were just surplus boxes from a pharmaceutical company and then after we'd used them they bought them back so it worked out very cheap. Looked recently for something similar in Scotland and couldn't find anything - only a recycled box company that had a 'buy back' price - no good if you're shipping overseas. It may be worth looking around local to you though to use if you can buy used ones - or advertise on Gumtree. We've got a container worth of Grace ones in our loft and if we saw someone wanting to buy locally we might sell 'cos we're not moving again!!!!!!

Wozziegirl Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 Yes, Kite Packaging. We've used this lot for double walled boxes, bubble wrap and biodegradable foam-like chips. They've been good on delivery times too. If you order in the morning you've got a good chance of next day delivery without paying the extra for it :-) http://www.kitepackaging.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tina0101 Posted September 7, 2014 Share Posted September 7, 2014 If you are on Facebook, most areas have a local group set up where you can ask for things (you'd need to search for your area - mine was called 'buy sell and swap Reading' Or use freecycle. That way they are free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirstyLP Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 As someone mentioned above you can get them from your removal company if you're using one, many removals companies also sell them online or you can buy direct from the British association of removers here: http://www.barservices.co.uk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
