You are right. He didn't. But, if they bother him and his spouse already, imagine how they are likely to bother him once they move in.
.
If that little bit bothered them, then there is no neighborhood that will make them happy. They will be the neighbor from hell themselves complaining about every little thing that anyone else does.

That's rather harsh. I wouldn't like the stuff the OP is describing, and I've never complained to an HOA or gotten into any sort of neighborhood feud. I just like being civil and people following the guidelines. Fortunately, they have in pretty much all the places I've lived. I'm flexible, but I don't want anyone's kids riding bikes in my yard, loud dogs barking at all hours, or farm animals in places where they are not supposed to be.
I like chickens, but if my neighborhood did not allow them, I really wouldn't want neighbors who had them, because who knows what other rules everyone else will start to ignore once a few people turn a blind eye on some of the rules? If people don't wanna agree to CCRs or HOA guidelines, they need to live in places that really don't have any of those things.

Rather than trash your neighbors online, how about go meet them?
Bring a welcome basket and offer to help dispose of their cardboard
OP, I hope you do get a chance to meet them on one of your nightly walks, introduce yourself, find out about them, where they came from, what they do, etc, then ask, "What are you going to do with all the boxes? Can we take a couple?"
They may say that they are going to put them on craigslist, give them to another mover, or maybe they are going to store them in the garage somewhere once they make room. Or some trash companies require scheduling a bulk pickup, for a fee, and maybe they are planning on scheduling one big pickup as soon as all the boxes are emptied.
Or, maybe they are planning a big bonfire - does your CCR's allow those?
Finalky - a common sense answer. I'd actually walk up to the front door and knock.

They don't seem to be living there full time yet. Of all the times we've been over there at various times of day we only encountered them once...as they were leaving in their car. Waved to them to try to initiate but they just drove off.

Nah....it's much easier to complain online. Why actually speak to someone in person? The OP doesn't even own the house yet and is already being the annoying neighbor.

If it's during the day, the might have jobs. They're still probably in transition. Moving can take a few weeks for some folks depending on how far they're moving. It doesn't happen overnight for most people.
