We're moving home soon... Any suggestions on where to get boxes cheap?

Went to bunnings but they want $4 each for some flimsy shit cardboard boxes.

LPT: Buy the big plastic tubs from Bunnings and then return them once you’re done moving. Half their tubs are scratched and scuffed anyways so I’m sure they don’t mind

Hadn't thought of that, might need to keep some of the stuff packed up for over a year though, so don't know whether bunnings will let you return after that much time.

If the stuff is going to stay in the box for a long time, something like a plastic tub might be a better choice anyway. Will better protect whatever you have in it.
