tinpanalley Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 Does anyone happen to know of any shops in Canada I can buy boxes for records for a move? Just 13 * 13 * 13 or something similar. I need about 10. I used to order from SleeveCity when I lived in the States, but I'd rather have something local for shipping cost. Thanks!

Subdomestic Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 (edited) I'm in Toronto. I did a short move a few years ago and used some boxes from U-haul which were a perfect size. Edit. I found one of the boxes in the basement and they're 12" 5/8 x 12" 5/8 x 16" 3/8. They're the size small boxes.

megan Posted April 6, 2021 Share Posted April 6, 2021 I did a move last year, and found the best boxes were ones I asked for from a liquor store. Heavy duty enough to protect expensive bottles, with a little less depth to keep them from getting too heavy. Also, free! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're definitely the small sized boxes, I used them for my collection when we moved and they fit perfectly with just enough to get your hands in the hand holds, just make sure to tape the hell out of the bottom.

Had to move across the country from Toronto few years ago and those had the ideal dimensions for moving records. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mouthofinfinity Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Co-sign for the uhaul boxes. Go heavy on the tape and dont rely on the hand holes because they will rip depending on how much you have in them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
