I am having trouble finding shipping boxes in my area. I found one company but can not always meet the minimum purchase.
Also, how can I find more local wholesales for theme items such as sports or city themes? Thanks for any help?

Happy New Year

Uline is a great source for shipping boxes. There's no mimimum, and they ship out very quickly. They ship out same day, if you order before 6:00 p.m. I always receive my boxes in record time. It only takes a day or two before I get my boxes. They have branches all over the U.S. 800-295-5510 www.uline.com

Happy New Year to you and everyone!!

Warmly,

I agree with Sherrill. Uline is a great source for shipping boxes. Also, if you happen to be located near one of their locations, you can go pick up your order.

Thank you, I will look them up! What about shipping charges. I noticed when I went to papermart.com the shipping would cost me more or the same as the boxes.

I love the free shipping with Uline! It saves me a lot of money. They have a Georgia location too - I can order today before 6pm and I get it the next day.

But, if you are a residential location, they add an additional $30.00 fee. Still a lot cheaper than regular UPS shipping. Lea

My location is considered residential and they have never charged me a $30 fee. My studio is on my personal property but not in my home.

You can buy cartons at Masterman's in Auburn, MA, but since that's an hour's drive for you, I don't know whether or not it would be worth it.

Thanks for the tip!! I have been known to drive an hour for crazy reasons - boxes might not be that bad. I do have this one place in Danvers that I can use - but they don't always have things in stock. They don't require a min. but sometimes that do not get back to you either.
