Where's a good place for boxes/packing stuff?

I've seen a couple sites out there with good prices but was wondering who you'd recommend
Thanks

we went to staples, they have bubble paper and sometimes big boxes in the back from their larger deliveries.

any clothing store should be willing to give you the boxes from shipment.

try craigslist, sometimes there are people giving away free boxes

We used bankers boxers from Staples and buble wrap. For our clothes. the moving companty gave us clothing boxes to use and they didn't charge for them.

We found some sales at Staples and Office Max. Also, we have been ordering so much stuff by mail order and we will use those boxes.

DH got a good deal on boxes at Westies- it's a storage place but I am sure you don't have to be renting a unit there to buy boxes. There is one in New Hyde Park not too far from the Northern State.
