I’m shipping a ton of parts, and I need large quantities of boxes, all sizes. I’m especially looking for a lot of small ones (say to ship a corner light), and odd shaped and long boxes (spoilers, moldings, dash pads). I’ll take just about anything in a large quantity. I use the USPS Priority boxes a lot, but I can’t use them to ship small stuff first-class, for international stuff, and for large items. I also can use bubble wrap and those air-filled cushion things. If anyone, say, works somewhere that throws out tons of boxes every day, I’d really appreciate it. Thanks!😃 ---

order priority boxes from [usps.com](http://usps.com), they’re free and they ship them right to your house. you just have to use priority shipping which isn’t really that bad anyway. ---

Liquor store for standard size boxes. Try Bert’s bike shop for large/sturdy boxes. When I used to work there there was always a ton of them lying around from bikes and exercise equipment. ---

Most are stamped on the inside so if you flipped them they read “USPS Priority” or something like that… Unless you have a bunch from 2 years ago +. ---

Thanks for the advice, I’ll try the liquor store around the corner! I actually do turn some of the larger Priority boxes inside out, but most are stamped now. ---

Awesome, thanks guys. As for the Priority boxes- I only turn the medium sized flat rate boxes inside out, but I still send them priority. I do this because our PO doesn’t have the ones I need. I fear if I sent them any other way some disgruntled postal employee would toss them off the nearest bridge.😃
