Question about shipping boxes

[xangiecx]

Hello all,

         I've looked through the postings and didn't find an answer.  Apologies if this subject has been covered, I couldn't find anything.  I'm new to selling on ebay and have not really had to buy large quantities of shipping supplies at this time.  When shopping thru Lowe's and Home Depot I have seen their moving boxes in varying sizes, but these boxes have the punch out handles on the sides.  Has anyone used these boxes for shipping and if so, how do you deal with the punch out handles?  Any info is welcome and thanks.

The Lowes and Home Depot boxes work perfectly fine for shipping. Just put tape over the punch-in handles on both the inside and outside, no problem. Try and get the "heavy duty" ones if you can.

The boxes from Uhaul are even better, if you can get them in your area (they also carry some odd shaped boxes for odd shaped items, though they are much more expensive.)
