Great Storage Boxes!
on February 12, 2015

These heavy-duty boxes are truly heavy-duty. I work in an office with a large volume of stored files. We have limited storage space so the boxes have to be stacked on top of each other and are frequently moved and restocked to access old files. We have many boxes that have been here for seven years or more and they show very little wear from all of the rough handling and the weight that is stacked on them. Very impressive!!
These boxes are great. They stack neatly. It is great that they have box contents fields on both sides so you don't have to worry about which way to store the box. This also enables you to quickly scan the boxes when they are stored in a large storage room. They are easy to assemble and easy to carry with hand holders on each side. They are lightweight so when adding files they still stay relatively light. I would recommend these boxes to anyone. My only question is why is ten the quantity they are packed in. Seems odd to me.
These boxes were significantly less expensive than other storage boxes available. They have perforated lines to separate the lid from the box and the sides of the box from the body of the box. It is difficult to separate the parts cleanly. They tend to bend or rip in the wrong way. This makes assembling the boxes irritating. Once assembled though I was impressed that they could be filled with books and we had no problem carrying them and stacking them. They were nicely sturdy even though they didn't look as if they would be.
