Only Rifle/Shotgun and handgun boxes. Most other boxes get cut up and tossed into recycling.

I need to downsize and move myself down from a 3-car garage to a one car Condo footprint in the next 12-24 months which seems impossible as I look at it now. My plan is just to start with the garage, get rid of any storage boxes of crap, sell stuff and simplify life. I'm not keeping boxes..

This.

Sliced up into pieces and into the trash they go, immediately.

The exception is if I think it has a high probability of being returned. If saving the box means the store can resell it is new or like new, I’ll save the box.

Twelve years so far.

My Wife: Till they turn to dust.

Me: gone as soon as I know we won't be returning an item.

2 exceptions: 1) I'll keep the current box our laptops came in since we've had to mail them out for repair before, and 2) big boxes get cut up to use on the garage floor or driveway when I work underneath my cars.
