CMinCR 0 Posted March 31, 2015 Report Share Posted March 31, 2015 (edited) Missy, there are two (known) ways to get boxes. It really depends upon the type and quality you need. Easiest: Stores will allow you to take their used product shipment boxes. EPA, Pricesmart, Walmart, and probably any large store in the area where you live. Mostly the boxes are "broken down" (unfolded) so check them out and select those that weren't cut/damaged when opened and product unloaded. Then use strong tape to make them boxes again. Alternative: (that actually sells boxes) Cajas de Cartón el Universo (2226 1015) Address: 400 meters South of "El Pipiolo" in Plaza Viquez, San Jose, CR. So if you need to purchase new, that's the only place that I know. If you just need sturdy boxes, free with careful selection is an alternative. Good luck!

ReevesTribe 0 Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Also check craigslist - sometimes new arrivals will either give away or sell their moving boxes. Jessica Quote Link to post Share on other sites
T&VSmith 0 Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 You are right. We had over a hundred and I couldn't give them away. They all were toast. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
