Shipping Boxes Dilemma | Selling

Hi, all. I live in a small apartment and storage space is at a premium. I have a closet in the second bedroom where I store shipping supplies and Amazon boxes that I reuse. My cat Leo is very high strung and when he gets upset he pees wherever, usually on our couch and sometimes on my pillow or even my head. Some time ago he had peed in that closet, and when I discovered that, I cleaned it out and threw most everything out and salvaged what I could. I thought all was well until the other day when I opened the closet and there was still a residual smell. I guess I'll have to empty the closet out completely and find another way to store my supplies. My question is about boxes. It looks like my best bet is to buy some boxes and store them flat in those containers that go under the bed. What is a good "starter pack" of boxes? Most of my items range in size from a small figurine to a toaster. What size of box(es) and how many of each should I get? *Worst case scenario when I make a sale I can run to the nearest store to get a box, but it would be nice to have a few on hand so I hopefully wouldn't have to do that, or at least not every time.
