I Love Clean Boxes

When we had a fire we need Boxes QUICK!!! Going to the usual local sources just wasn't going to work. Besides the Insurance company paid for them so we were happy to use them.
Purchased a 10-pack when Staples Rewards was giving 100% back - to use to sort during my winter/spring cleaning and then to use for storing items. They are perfect. Great price even when not get 100% back hold a good deal very easy to assemble but I also like that they store flat if you don't need them at the time. Great space conserver!
These boxes are a great deal for the price and when there's a 100% Rewards refund how can you possibly beat that? I bought 2 packs of 10! If you put them together with a few swipes of glue stick or a few dribbles of good old "Elmer's" white glue they're surprisingly stout as well not the usual flimsy stuff most "recycled" has come to mean. I really like having a bunch of boxes that are all the same size and shape for storage whether in the attic or closet ot mini warehouse. Just keep them dry and they will last for a long long time. For now I'm keeping a couple of them open & empty on the floor - my cats think they're just a great place to relax & play with each other through the handle holes...
Great for long-term storage. Not good if box needs to be accessed frequently - should get the sturdier ones for that. I use these at home and at work for files that only need to be accessed a few times a year.
I have been using these storage boxes for a long time and find them vbery easy to assemble and they are sturdy enough to stack them and not have them collapse or get weak at all. They are vbery good to use for storage of craft projects that I have started and wish to complete some day in the future. Now that I am 80 years old I think I had better get on the ball so as not to leave too many half completed projects that my children will find and wonder - WHY IN THE WORLD DID SHE START THIS PROJECT AND NOT FINISH IT AT ALL.
These are great boxes but you need to be careful how much you try to pack in them. Just put some tape on the bottoms They are great to use for file storage.
