I want to begin selling boxes at our storage facility, but I don't know what sizes to order. I would appreciate some input on that. Thanks : )

Hi Julie,
Kevin is correct. You would want to start with small, medium and larges. The mediums tend to be the better sellers. You may want to offer rolls of tape as well. I would be glad to answer any questions you may.

Thank you Kevin and Jonathan, I appreciate your help. Where may I ask did you purchase the boxes?

Wonderful Thank you,
Since you both have been so helpful, may I ask if you have purchased swooper or feather flags from anyone that you could recommend?
Jonathan Peterson on Monday 05/07/2018 at 12:28 PM
I do not have a source for those.

We've used featherflagsale.com We did custom flags from them. Pretty Good stuff but need to bring in during windy conditions.

small 'book box', medium, large and even wardrobe boxes. Then you can get into the specialized ones-I find that the 'picture boxes' sell well-you can pack a flat screen tv in the larger sizes and numerous pictures/paintings in all of them. Mattress covers are also a good idea for moves-I think U-haul has the best ones b/c have you ever moved a mattress? It's like holding life sized spaghetti-Uhaul mattress covers have handles for ease of moving a mattress. Worth it, let me tell ya.

Thanks Kris in NC. I will take your advice : )

I would start out with just the basic small medium and large.
