New source for carton filler and protection.

I didn't know if I should post this here or in the dumpster diving forum. It will get more clicks here.

I had to take my car into the shop this Saturday (no yardsales) and walked home. (sorry guys & gals the weather was middle 70's) About a block from home is a strip mall with a Tropical Fish Store on the end unit. Since I was walking I got a better look down the back alley. Next to their dumpster was a pile (at least 4' x 4' x 5') of unbroken styrofoam boxes and lids. I guess all the fish get sent in this type of container. I quickly (it is daytime) grabbed 6 lids and went home. By the size of the pile it has been building up for quite some time.

The boxes looked to be 16 x 16 x 16 and 1" thick. That is a lot of packing material what you need to ship something fragile. and it is free.

And NO, the first thing I did was sniff the lids, they do not smell fishy.

Try fish or seafood markets also some Pharmacy's have these styrofoam boxes.

They also make handy dandy little coolers for when you bring something home from the grocery, like ice cream on a hot day......nge
