Boxes

[jducoeur]

As part of the household cleanup: we now find ourselves with a prodigious number of boxes that we need to get rid of. I've already chucked out the first dozen or two; we probably still have 50-75 currently in the house that we need to get out of the way for the party. So if you're looking for boxes, now is the time to claim them.

We'll be breaking boxes down flat over the next couple of days; those will be available at the party itself. (I have to fight the temptation to give them out as door prizes.) If you'd like any boxes in their non-flat state, please tell us now, and we'll leave them set up for you. If you're not going to be at the party, and want some, please arrange to come pick them up within the next week, at which point the remainder will be thrown out.

These are mostly Staples Store-all boxes: basic small lidded boxes with handles. They're moderately sturdy, and all the ones we're giving away are in good condition. (We've already thrown out the ones that broke during the move.) There are a small number of other sorts of boxes available, such as the box for the new TV set. Everything that's currently empty is available, so don't be shy about asking for as many as you want...

Ygraine or Peter may want the TV box for more archery targets...

Yes, I would like six of the StorAlls please. We don't need that many, but given that I'm hoping to put up more shelving in our basement, they are useful containers for that.

I've _still_ got boxes on my back deck waiting for a dry and free afternoon to be cut up and twined up so they can be put out with the recycling.

It's going to be an ongoing project for us. There are still well over a hundred boxes in storage, which will be coming over gradually. But this is the first big blort of them, which I need to clear out of the dining room. (Which they are now more or less filling.)

Do give them out as door prizes!

I could also use a half-dozen StorAlls. I'd rather have tidy, smaller lidded boxes than the motley assortment currently in my room.

Hokay, cool. That's why we bought scads of the things: they're much easier to manage than assorted boxes...
