CARDBOARD BOXES.I NEED a good few as im moving house.Do the big supermarkets still give them free on asking,or

Question

are we now subject to politically correct recycling shat .

Answer 1

The last time I tried to get boxes from a supermarket..it was this huge competition.  Apparently they get loads of people that come to colllect the boxes to recycle them and make a lot of money.  I was told to come at midnight as that is when they put the boxes out for people to take.  I tried and got none..there were people running and grabbing the boxes like maniacs.  I could'nt believe it.  I guess it is good that people are recycling them..but makes it so that people have to go purchase boxes when they need them.

Answer 2

yes you can usually get them at most places,

Answer 3

you can just ask the guys at the loading bay at the back of a supermarket usually and they probably give you a few to be re-used

Answer 4

yes they do just ask them a day in advance and they will do it for you.  tell them how many to save and what size.

Answer 5

the supermarkets will still give them to you ask a few days in advance and they will save them for u

Answer 6

Freecycle.com and craigslist.com often have actual used moving boxes for free.  I'd start there.

Answer 7

Off-licences have the strongest ones.

Answer 8

Go to a fast food place, their boxes are usually really strong (especially the ones that have to sit in the walk in freezers). When i moved I went to mc donalds and asked, and came out with more than I could carry.

Answer 9

Yes, most supermarkets are happy to give you them, best time to go is when they are busy restocking the shelves so there are lots of boxes about.
