    I purchased many from the stationary store,kitty corner from the Siliman West building on Perdices. They were very cheap, 5 p each, how ever they are very very very weak, barely holding together I bought them flat and taped them together with duct tape. The other and better alternative is the National book store filing boxes, at about 100 P each, but there are small. I think they had some larger moving boxes at the Robinson Mall National book store, if you need a lot start early collecting them. LBC may sell boxes also, I never checked there. Good Luck... how far are you moving ant what type of mover are you using?

    The Cangs store on the Hwy has many boxes for sale. Just go to the receiving docks at the rear of the store. 5 P each. I am not sure what their schedule is for receiving shipments but there is a cage next to the docks where they store the boxes. you will have to sort through them to pick the one you want, then pay for them inside.

    Great Steve, that's what I will do. When we moved from Tandayag (Amlan) to Zamboaguita a few months ago, I got some in a similar way from Prince in Tanjay...

    The backing boxes from the store are very weak.. the 5 P ones are only good for one move, and short distance at that too..
