Staples Economy Storage Boxes
on October 15, 2014
Posted by: Paula K.
I purchased 10 boxes because we are snowbirds and making our annual trip to Florida for 6 months to get out of the snow in Michigan. These boxes are great as we can keep re-using them. I usually take about 38 boxes in the Town and country with the seats down in the floor. These boxes stack very well and are super sturdy. I don't bring back as much stuff as I take to Florida so I ran short on boxes to fill and take back for the winter. Fortunately these boxes are cheap enough that I can just pick up more. Great price and great buy. Thanks
These boxes went together easier than I anticipated by following the printed instruction on every box. Size is absolutely perfect for my needs. Strong cardboard and easy to label....and stack. Great value and utility.
These boxes are excellent. They are easy to assemble they are sturdy and when you fill them they are easy to carry because they have built in handles I have purchased many to use in a variety of ways for files for storing costumes and for packing for trips.
I have been using these boxes for years and they are excellent. They hold up well and maintain their shape even with repeated moves. Even the tops maintain their shape and stay on when the boxes are filled to capacity. The size of the box holds a sufficient amount of file material to be adequate for most purposes but is not so large that even when full to capacity is not still readily movable. These boxes also stack well and the area allowed for labeling is adequate to include several references and cross-references making location of stored material simpler.
Staples calls these "Economy" storage boxes. They "economized" all right -- they neglected to glue down an edge of the box which is supposed to be fixed. Of the boxes in the 10 pack that I purchased the first 5 were okay. The last 5 were defective. If you're going to buy these make sure you have a roll of strong tape on hand so that you can fix the problem -- and hope that the tape will make the box sturdy enough for your needs.
