Where to find cardboard boxes?

[TinkleTurkey]

I need to find a source of cardboard boxes for chick transport. Not shipping but just disposable type for people to take them home in... Like those chinsy ones they give you at the pet store that fold out like chinese take-out boxes...
I already used up all my shoe boxes lol

I once bought from a woman who was using usps priority mail boxes - convenient, but I don't like breakin the law.

Frankly, the dumpster behind most $1 stores. Seriously. Dollar stores go through tons of small to medium boxes. Sometimes hundreds per day. We've always had good luck getting dozens and dozens of good clean boxes. Those and a tape gun and you're all set.

another good place to try is the local liquor store, they usually have tons of extra boxes

Ask your local grocery store what their big delivery day is. Sometimes they can set boxes aside for you - but be prepared to show up when they say or they will throw them in the cardboard baler instead.
