      When I moved house in few years back, I bought some boxes from a packaging company located at Toa Payoh. Is it convenient for you?


      Selling in 2 sizes. 1) 20" x 20" x 20" - $3.40 per box. 2) 20" x 15" x 15" - $2.40 per box.

      If you interested, I will give you the address.

        hi smurf,


        Just remember to bring important documents like testimonials, certificates etc BY YOURSELF. My friend lost all her educational transcripts and testimonials during one of her moves (she had packed those in a box for the movers).

          You can ask for empty boxes from your friendly neighbourhood fruit stores or provision shops, certainly helps especially if u are a regular... FOC. :lol:

            If you know of a photocopy shop in your neighbourhood, ask the staff there if you can have their empty boxes. I donโ€™t mean the small ones that reams of paper come in. Iโ€™m referring to the big, white(?) ones that the small boxes are put in. Since paper is quite heavy, these boxes are sturdy enough for use in moving house. I used them before and they are quite clean (you just need to wipe the box bottom and lid top before using).

                        Yup. You must have read about my house in the other FS thread.

                        I'm not selling, it's a good house. My (de)grandma told me. ๐Ÿ˜‰

                        Shucks! We're moving around the same timing!
