Great boxes for hauling books files anything heavy. No need to tape the bottom although we did tape the top. Great boxes if you're moving things yourself
I have purchased these boxes for several moves and really like them because I get a lot of them for my money they have lids that go on easily they are collapsible for storage and stack uniformly. The lids are not attached so you have to tape them on but they are a great size for things like dvds books and household miscellaneous. However if you need them for heavy or repeated handling applications I would purchase the next grade up that costs twice as much.
I am using the Staples Storage Boxes to pack my personal belongings for a move to a new home. They are easy for me to carry and lift by myself and will fit nicely in a storage facility for as long as I need it.
These boxes are high quality document storage boxes they will easily hold up to the capacity of file folders or loose files but the cover will not accommodate hanging file folders. Because they are cardboard they should not be stacked full more than a few boxes high. Although they are the least expensive option at Staples I think they are overpriced for an branded item. Stickers could be placed over the Staples Name but the large product number is an unwelcome feature. Colors would also be helpful.
