I realize this is an odd request...

But if you have access to empty boxes of decent yet smallish size (think bank boxes/paper boxes) and can get some, could you? Bigger boxes are ok, I just don't think we'll need as many. At this point a box is a box (get your mind out of the gutter, I'm serious here) cause the more I think about it, the more I realize we soo don't have enough. I've been trying to horde from work, but everyone else knows when the best time to get boxes are, so most people beat me too it.

I'd even come pick them up, within reason, if you can't drop them by us.

This option will cost you around $20 for every 25 boxes, but Uline has 16x12x12 boxes (and a whole bunch of other sizes too.) They're the perfect size for books and small items, even from your kitchen. They're brand new, and all the same size, so you won't be playing 3D Tetris with different size boxes.

You can pick up your order from their warehouses. There's one in Atlanta that I use and there's one in Waukegan.

I love these boxes. In the two times I've moved in the last 6 years, these boxes have been completely awesome. And much cheaper than any other place selling boxes.

I actually got the Artists Alley sorting boxes for Anthrocon from Uline a couple of years back (hint: if you show up at the warehouse without ordering first, you confuse the hell out of them). They are definitely cheap and good quality, but unless Data can make it there before they close today (unlikely), it's probably not an option since they won't be open again until Tuesday.

and actually that's really not bad, if we'd have thought of it sooner. we'll manage or swing by next week. the movers don't come til Friday.
