Free Up Some Space
on February 4, 2015
Posted by: Paula K.
We had a multitude of closed files that were taking up space in our daily filing cabinets. They were in the way and I couldn't discard the files because they contained documents and information that we may need to access during the next few years. These Economy Storage Boxes were a life saver! They are easy to assemble are very sturdy and fit nicely into our cabinets and outside storage unit. If you have the need to clear the clutter from your filing space while keeping organized access to old documents I recommend the Economy Storage Boxes!
I purchased 55 boxes to help pack my parents' (ages 90 and 92) stuff to move into assisted living. It is a lot less expensive (I purchased them on sale) than purchasing boxes sold for moving and are stronger. I chose these boxes because they assembly easily with no adhesive or staples required yet are very strong. I packed several boxes with canned goods. The bottons showed no signs of giving away despite the fact the bottom of the box is held in place simply with folded cardboard. They stacked nicely so made it easy to load the truck. They unfold easily and can be stored in the flat should one choose to do that after use. (You never know when the children will move back home.)
This heavy duty storage box is very easy to put together. The front labeling is extremely helpful to keep all the important info organized and utilize for a quick reference. The boxes do get heavy when filled to capacity so be very careful when picking it up.
We've been using these boxes to store our A/R and A/P as well as payroll records for many years. They're easy to assemble and help us make room in our files for the new year. They're also reasonably priced and easy to label.
