Try "packaging 2 you" – via Google. They do very good moving kits with everything included – boxes, tape and dispensing gun, bubble wrap and wrapping paper. A 100 sounds a lot unless you live in a mansion.

House removal companies sell boxes for moving. Call them and ask if they have any used boxes for sale.

yes,
ask your local grocery stores and restaurants.
some may tell you no but most will give them to you.
this saves them the trouble of disposing of them

Liquor stores are the BEST place for getting FREE boxes for moving. The boxes they have are almost always very sturdy because they have to be in order to store the heavy liquor bottles in and they also have dividers in them for the bottles, which come in handy for your household items. If you’ll just call or stop by your local liquor store, they can tell you when they put their boxes outside to be picked up.

Make sure that you’re there early on the day(s) they designate, though, as the boxes tend to go rather quickly!

Good luck with your move!

A couple of suggestions: I would recommend going to a local supply store like Staples or Office Max, or similar types of warehouses, also try funiture stores for larger boxes and requesting their assistance in giving you their opened, used boxes. They are sometimes very helpful for needy causes.

Also, if you work in an office environment, or have friends who work in them. Then you can request and use the boxes they use for copier paper. These boxes are good for packing dishes, books, and all your little small objects. The majority of the places listed are free. Of course, it’s always good to offer to pay for them, this shows your appreciation, and usually, the person will kindly say, there’s no charge for them, because they were going to trash them anyway.

I hope this info helps you.

If you have a print shop close by, ask them for their empty paper cartons.

I would ask around. A lot of times neighbors have boxes sitting around from ordering things online or buying large items.
