What do you do with you cooking appliance boxes?

I try to save them to store stuff in. If they sit for awhile I end up throwing them out, but chances are they are filled up and put away.

I didn't throw them. Instead I stuffed my old magazines and send them to the recycling center. If the boxes were as big as me I turned them into playhouses for my students. They love decorating it.

I usually fold them and stack them together thinking that they might become handy sometime. And usually they do but there are times that they get too much to keep so either I give them away or throw them. Some junk shops buy them but they must reach a certain volume in order to be of value so they usually end up in the garbage truck and the garbage collectors are the ones selling them.

We've got quite a few boxes stashed in our closet from all the appliances that we have and it's kind of driving me mad. We live in a small place as it is and they're just taking up more and more space. I think at some point I'm going to go on a cleaning spree and start tossing them out one by one! We've just resigned our lease for another year so we're still living in our small apartment so we're going to need the space eventually.

Well, if they're useful or if I can find some use for them like to store smaller items, I'd keep them. If not, then I'd throw them out or take them to the nearby dump because some people here collect boxes and take them to the recycling center for money.

I keep these boxes because time may come when I am going to need these boxes, if these boxes can't be use anymore then I throw them out.

I usually hang on to them for a week or two just to make sure the item is going to work allright then I toss them or use them for storing things like past bills, breakables, craft items. ~~AT PEACE WITHIN~~ **STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS**[/b]

I have always just thrown them out. I never have had the room to just store that sort of thing. I have moved a lot and I'll tell you....you will find a way to pack those things safely. I wrap glass items in towels or newspapers. I pack and label each box according to which room it belongs in and often list on the box certain items that I know I'll be wanting to find right off. When I know I am going to be moving, I go around and collect boxes from stores. They are pretty easy to get. I think you'll find that you have a lot less clutter if you just get rid of them and you'll be happier.

I also throw away my appliance boxes except when it is big enough to store old clothes and other clutters in. About two years ago, I did some spring cleaning at home and found some useless stuff stored in cabinets. From then on, I have resolved to give away or throw away stuff I do not need and keep only those that are needed. Have an nice day!

Throw out the small boxes, keep the big boxes use them for storing things.

I used to keep appliance boxes for a move but now I am gradually getting rid of them. I have a small apartment and would probably move into one of the same size. I've had to become much more careful about what I keep in this apartment. I do still have the box for my large crockpot but I have stored some things in it until it's needed. I love my big crockpot and wouldn't like to have to buy a new one. So, you could keep the rice cooker box and use it for storage now or plan on packing it real well when you move.
