Where can I get free moving boxes?

The easiest source is someone who has just finished moving, or a shop, wholesaler or warehouse that receives goods in boxes every day. On PackoLoopo, set your area and tick “Free” to see boxes to give away with the distance from you. Boxes from a move are usually sturdy and similar in size, so they stack well in a car.

How do I give away boxes for free?

Post a listing with the price set to 0. Someone nearby books a pickup and comes in the chosen slot. You do not have to take them anywhere.

  • Fold the boxes flat and tie them with string.
  • Put the number in the title, e.g. “Moving boxes, 20 pcs”.
  • Give the size of the largest boxes and the board ply (single, double wall).
  • Choose the hours when someone can collect them.

Which boxes are useful to others?

Dry and clean ones, with no mould or smell. Large double-wall boxes are good for books and heavy items, smaller single-wall ones for clothes and kitchenware. Put wet or torn boxes in the paper recycling and take larger amounts to your local recycling centre.
