Where the bloody hell can I buy flat-packed cardboard boxes in London?
I need to pack my life up by Thursday...

some advice:
I just moved and bought 10 of those huge rubbermaid tubs with lids. It made it so easy. no tape- they have handles, and stack perfectly. They were only 3 US dollars each.

Ikea
(or ask at SIze... they gave us a load when we moved. They get massive flatpack boxes from nike)

Dude, you can buy flat pack cardboard boxes at B&Q! Score!
(or, at least you can at the one off the a10 in Enfield)It's a tenner for 1 huge one, 4 medium and 2 small funky ones or something.
Good luck with the move!

I moved a buddy. He got boxes from local companies that break them down and throw them out. He just went in and asked.
Also on stuff like chairs tables and lamps and stuff he took an industrial size of saran wrap and wrapped everything. It made everything so much easier. No wires hanging from Tvs and lamps and stuff.
