I recently started to pack for a move and used a lot of liquor store boxes. One of the tips I had read was that while the movers will load them into the truck and off the truck, you are the one on the other end lugging it to the closet or to the pantry within the room, so you may as well make it easy on yourself.

I am not at that point yet that I need more boxes or wardrobes, but I did use the below link for bubble wrap and packing paper. They were the cheapest around and delivered free the next day. https://www.limovingsupplies.com/cart.aspx

Go to Pamlen Liquors in the Waldbaum's shopping center in Stony Brook. They have freebies. That's what we used.

Go to Stop and Shop and ask them for their boxes that the eggs come in.

They have handles.
