Here are a few of our favorite upcycled moving box ideas:

Our staff created this US Mailbox out of two upcycled cardboard moving boxes. It was a little more difficult than it looks to create.  After the build, we realized there wasn’t enough room to put your arms out so this upcycled Halloween costume isn’t recommended.

FOR HOME

Using old moving boxes to organize your home, office or arts and crafts room is pretty easy.  The only rules are arming yourself with a ruler, plenty of cardboard, paint, perhaps some cloth, ribbon and feel and you will find endless ideas.  And don’t forget a heavy duty X-Acto   knife!

At Monster Movers, we have made office bins out of moving boxes.  We highly suggest using chalkboard paint to pain the outside of the bin so you can mark and reuse these upcycled cardboard moving boxes.
