I am packing for a move in 2 weeks and looking for sturdy boxes. Has anyone just moved and looking to have theirs removed/recycled?

I get free boxes at Walmart after hours. (10 pm)
They have some very sturdy boxes that we use for heavier items, like an extensive library, packing glass, etc.
If moving using a company, they sell boxes at Kinkos, perhaps that would help.

I am using a moving company, but trying to save where I can. Thank you for the Walmart tip! I will head there tonight, if it ever stops raining!

Home Depot sells moving boxes, bubble wrap, TV and picture boxes, etc. - I've been packing and their supplies are priced pretty good.

Good suggestion. They're only about $1 to $2 and they're clean. I would be very careful using boxes from Walmart and other stores because of roaches or roach eggs.

Uhaul sells nice heavy duty boxes. The wardrobe boxes are really nice.

The Ace Hardware on Cape Coral parkway sells boxes at a reduced price. I think they sell the ones their shipments come in, I have seen a sign out front to that effect.

Moved in July with mostly Home Depot boxes. Stick with the "medium" size to keep things managable (weight wise) and makes stacking in the truck more efficient.
Good luck!
