No Hassle Storage
on May 21, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
For years. I've used the economy storage boxes to keep projects etc. neatly. They hold up well compared to other stronger boxes. I've had loose leaf notebooks as well as regular hardcover books from time to time. Just ordered another 90 of these boxes for a move. They are easy to pick up and move around and stack. Bigger boxes make for back strain and are more labor intensive in the long run. Very easy to put together. It is a pleasure to label these and get back to work I've had to put away for long periods of time. If you do use them for heavier objects just put lighter things in with the heavier objects and you can still fill the box re-use later.

Convenient Storage

Easy to put together. Strong enough to carry books. Have used for moving instead of traditional moving boxes. Easier to handle and you have boxes left over for storage after the move.

Economy Storage Box
on May 21, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
The product delivers exactly what its name promises. It is the least expensive storage box at Staples and provides an adequate environment for anything that fits inside it. I recently had a house fire with extensive smoke damage and was relieved to see that while the boxes themselves were covered with soot the contents inside them remained in decent shape though I had to wipe down the tops of any books stored in them and get rid of the smelly file folders. Because the boxes (and file folders) are cheap it was easy to toss them out for paper recycling and buy new ones. The economy boxes filled with paper files or books are strong enough to be stacked four deep though not more than that.

Easy and Affordable

I love using the Stapels Economy Storage Boxes and buying them with the 10 pack saves me money making it EASY on my budget and gives me more money to use for other Staples products for my business. I own my own small HVAC company here in Phoenix AZ and in the winter time business slows down and I have to clean out my paperwork for the year between the both of being EASY on my budget during the most needed time and the dependabilty of the product upholding I can count of these boxes to last a lifetime.

Excellent buy

These boxes for storing permanent files. So easy to put together you'd think you'd gotten them already assembled. They stack well on top of each other. Have been using them for years. I do suggest though that you not plan to ship them. It can work but you need a lot of packing tape especialy to seal the handle holes. I have shipped them though and find that they do work of but don't hold their shape as well. Easy enough if Staples shipping boxes aren't available to repack them at the new location.

Fair - not too strong

These are good for light jobs. The lids are not deep enough around the lip so they easily come off and dent when stacked. They also do hold many hanging files before they begin cave in. Good boxes for lightweight storage. Pro - easy to assemble.

This box is very basic and gets the job done. No bells or whistles - but it lsts and doesnt fall apart. I would recommend.
