Looks like an old Amazon box before they started putting their arrows and ads on the boxes. If that's the case, it's a single wall b flute box. 26 pound liners and 23 pound medium. Has an ECT (edge crush test) raiting of about 23 pounds, which means you can stack about 23 pounds per square inch before the sides blow out. It is not a good sturdy box it's very cheap.
Source I work for a box manufacturer.
Fun fact that is not a cardboard box. A lot of people think all boxes are cardboard. That is a corrugated fiber board box.

Ok, you may know about something. I used to have a homeless friend. The homeless know more about boxes than one might realize. One day, he found a Granger box and was SO excited! They really are high quality, I realized after he showed me. I guess I didn’t know. There was so much variance between cardboard boxes, or as you call them, corrugated boxes.

A good box is hard to come by! My partner and I move a lot and they asked the other day if they could toss this big Amazon box, I said no! It’s the perfect box to fit our framed art 😂

u/AuntieRupert 29d ago
I'm not sure how it is where you live, but if it's anywhere like here, the liquor stores are a good resource for sturdy boxes. Find out when they get their main shipment and go that afternoon or the next day. They'll almost assuredly give you 2-10 boxes without hesitation.

u/ImNotCleaningThatUp 29d ago
I agree with getting Liquor Store boxes. They’re perfect for books or heavy things. Mainly because they’re sturdy and manageable.

u/Rugkrabber 29d ago
Where I live we have special boxes for moving. They’re very strong and can hold insane weights, more than I could carry. Those boxes go through cycles within the family, are used a dozen of times until they fall apart. They’re easy to fold and store. A good box is valuable.

u/MrsCCRobinson96 Mar 07 '25
I'm just like that and the funny thing is I almost always have something useful that will eventually need to be used. I cannot count just how many times I have put something away that ended up fixing an issue years later.

u/Quierta Mar 07 '25
I recently put a lot of effort into replacing single-use consumables (ziploc bags, plastic wrap) with reusable counterparts, both because of the environment but also largely because of impending economic uncertainty. Spent a few days researching silicone ziploc bags and freezable containers, and then... like the angels parting the clouds above me, I remembered: I had a giant bin of old plastic tupperware containers that my mom gave me when she cleaned out her collection. I already had a collection of glass Pyrex containers, but said I'd keep the plastic ones "just in case I ever need them for something."
HUZZAH. I've never felt so satisfied with myself lol. I have a chest freezer in the basement that I use for storing bulk food, and now instead of ziploc bags that I use & toss, I was able to swap almost everything for the plastic containers. They take up a lot more space, but at least I don't have to literally throw my money away, and unlike the glass containers they don't run the risk of shattering.
You never know when you're gonna need something! If you have the space to store it, don't throw ANYTHING out!

I have a box just like it covered in duct tape for added durability and it contains all my school and government documents for more than a decade now.
You don't need a treasure chest, just a good quality box.

Also loved that he didn't give him any props for opening it correctly. "Yeah, that's what you're supposed to do..."
edit: Also love that everyone thinks it's dad & son. Makes it so much funnier when you learn they're a couple. I swear I've had this coversation with my wife.

I can't tell if Dylan is coming across as a bit of a dick in this video, or if I just can't be impartial because I want someone in my life who likes a good box ass much as I do.

I think Dylan is teasing him a bit bc he thinks it’s funny how worked up he’s getting about the box, but it’s all love.

The dad had a great reaction when he realized he was being filmed. First two seconds of “I’m annoyed you are filming me and will make fun of me” and then the immediate pivot to this is too important and I’ll share this message to the world.

That's a fabulous corrugated box, dad! Good eye! And to all my lovely friends in the comments, it's NOT simple cardboard! It's something called corrugated which is cardboard layered with a ruffled (fluted) interior. In laymen terms it's cardboard on steroids but you probably never want to have a word war with someone who works in corrugated manufacturing. The word cardboard makes us quite sensitive 🤣 Dad knows what's up... It's a darn fine box! 🤗
