Trains 'n boats Posted September 16, 2017 Share Posted September 16, 2017 Is there anyplace to buy boxes not by the 20-24 for larger sets (e.g 22x16x4). I've got about 10 to sell but don't necessarily want 15 additional boxes hanging around. thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cladner Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 (edited) stumbled across shelf of clearance 8 pack 880 yd of duck packaging tape for $7 at walmart tonight - looked it up and it looks like almost a system wide deal. some stores have it for $4-5 dollar for 8 pack. a few have it for $11. sku: 160513255 Edited October 16, 2017 by cladner 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

labfreak7 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Minimum order of 100 kills it for me. Although I do like the quality of Uline boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stackables Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 Anyone got a link or a place where they get 6 x10 bubble mailers in bulk. I bought a 100 a while ago and I am about to run out. Got that batch from Amazon but the quality wasn't that great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barbos Posted February 20, 2018 Share Posted February 20, 2018 If you have an eBay store, they throw out a $25 coupon every quarter for shipping supplies, including bubble mailers; but they have the eBay name and logo on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarryZola Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Anyone in the UK know of a supplier of boxes for large sets like the Palace Cinema and such-like? Looking for something approx' 24x20x6 inches as that covers most larger sets but also allows to pad out well for slightly smaller sets. Was looking at the Lil G30 but they're too small for the slightly taller sets. Any help appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any help appreciated I use the Lil K30: https://www.lilpackaging.com/double-wall-cardboard-boxes-strong-cardboard-boxes There are several folds to reduce the depth. Altogether I use: K30 for the largest sets (Firehouse HQ, BWE) G30 for next tier (CLAAS, High Speed Passenger Train) CPL45 (Krennics Shuttle, Spiderman Bridge Battle) G10 (Poes X Wing, Winter sets) E4 (Telehandler, Ecto-1) E1 (Eiffel Tower, Carbon freezing chamber) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TabbyBoy Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I now use ACS Direct and have double-walled custom-made boxes for large/medium sets and I use Staples for A3/A4 sized boxes, you'll need to call them to get a good deal. A decent 500x400x100mm and 550x350x100mm box is impossible to find off the peg. I find that LiL quality has nosedived since the flaps no longer line up properly. I now join forces with other eBayers selling different items and buy boxes by the pallet for peanuts each. For modulars, join forces with others on here who live close and get ACS Direct to deliver a pallet that you can split. I used 600x500x140mm (OK for Collect+) which allowed for a double-layer of small bubble-wrap and a layer of corrugated card on top/bottom. I threw a packed Pet Shop down the stairs when having a tantrum one day and it was totally unscathed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grabbitfast Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Staples have been clearing a lot of boxes and most of them good quality, pulled in about 500 in total of assorted sizes last week . Might still be some worthwhile sizes left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
