Try Kinko's or copy places. Surely they have a lot of empty paper boxes? They're quite sturdy and usually have handles on the sides.

Fast food places will keep them for you.

Liquor stores.

I started drinking 18 packs of Bud Light several months before I moved. They make great packing boxes.

Banana boxes at the grocery store. They are strong and have handles. Call ahead, though.

call me. I have tons of great moving size boxes at work

Blockbuster Video on a Tuesday morning. That's when they put their movies out, but get there between 10:30 and noon-ish. Earlier and they may not be done with them, later and someone else probably already snagged them.

Go at evening/night to an industrial area that you know, look for the Big Blue Bins that say "CardBoard Only" once you find a good one,you can feast(LOL). They are usually prefolded and ready to go. I do not mean to break any Laws with this statement, but it is the best time to go, No traffic, No Nosy People etc. We are only RECYCLING, thats all.

The liquor store, boxes every night, really.
-
Usually WalMart or McDonald's can help.

OK, here is what my buddy did. This may be considered a felony but I am not splitting hairs. Go to the Post Office and tell them you are running a small business and would like to use them exclusively for your shipping needs. They loaded him up with boxes of boxes and tape for free. The bumper of his pacer was held on by "US Postal Service" tape for almost a year. At first it looked a little cheap but when you looked at the whole car, it actually made it look a little official.

Walmart if you call them around 4 in the afternoon and tell them to save you boxes you can pick them up the next day at the costomer service counter.
-
Any grocery store, many paper product specialty stores, and other high-volume merchandisers. On the other hand, I prefer to buy new boxes from Office Max, Office Depot, etc. They make for uniform stacking and really don't cost that much.

every time i have moved i go to walmart or HEB or equivalent of super grocery store they almost always have boxs and if you looking for certain sizes like bigger smaller most of them i have been to will tell you to come back at this time when they start stocking or if they have them give them to you for free most big discount stores hold on to these now to recycle because they get tax breaks for that but they do not mind or care if you want some of them

Grocery stores, Fruit Markets (the boxes banana's come in are sturdy and have holes in sides, easy to carry them), places like Dollar General after they've unloaded a shipment.
-
At a blue moving van.
-
Visit stores in person and ask them about boxes. Often they will crush them now instead of putting them out back. But if you ask them when they get loads, you might be able to arrange with them to be there and get those boxes. If you can talk to someone in the produce department, you've got it made. They even have these really great plastic crates that the sides fold down flat. They carry a ton of stuff.
-
Any 'dry goods' place. Never get them at places that sell/handle food. They can be loaded with cockroaches and other critters yo...
-
Ulta has the *best* moving boxes. Call and ask them what day they get deliveries and ask if you can pick up boxes. they are generally fine about not tossing them. If they do toss them, they just go into a recycle container outside.
