I need few big cardboard boxes. Where in Limerick can I buy it?

Ask in a few shops, im sure they have loads out the back from all the sale items.

Argos do them but the prices are insane:

Birthdays usually put loads of boxes outside

I remember you could get them in Atlantic Homecare/Homebase B&Q etc. but they were about 40euro for 10! Thats ridiculous!! you could ring a few shops and ask them to give you some before they compact them.

Ask any shop on Cruises St, hmv will pobably give you some, at least we used to when i worked there, spared us throwing them out

Aldi or Lidl give them away.

There is a place just passed Southcourt hotel beyound raheen where the old scrapyard was that sells boxes of all sizes, no idea of prices but they would be worth a try.

call out to limerick packaging on ballysimon road the lads will do you a deal on boxes or try the co-op/box factory up in galvone they should look after you aswell.

Thanks for help. Bought some in Limerick Selfstorage (Docks Road) Really nice man in reception, reasonable prices.

Can't believe you actually bought cardboard boxes when shops across the city will give them to you for free. The mind boggles or am I missing something here?

Free boxes fom shops are usualy in poor condition and made from thin cardboard - not suitable for moving house.
Price like 4 euro for a good, new large box is not too high and not worth to put my stuff on risk (espetially if I need only few boxes)
